Samantha Brick: French Women Are 'Hostile and Predatory' Adulterers
The Telegraph ^ | 17 May 2012 | Donna Bowater

Posted on 05/17/2012 2:18:11 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Samantha Brick, the journalist who decried women for being jealous of her "lovely looks", has taken a swipe at French women including the new first lady of France, Valerie Trierweiler.

Miss Brick, who was publicly ridiculed for her article in April entitled Why women hate me for being beautiful, claimed to have an "insight into the sinister machinations" of the minds of French women.

According to Miss Brick, the ladies of France, who are often celebrated as sophisticated and fashionable, are actually adulterous misogynists. The columnist for the Daily Mail is married to French native Pascal, and has lived in the country for four years.

In her latest article, she described her experience of French women: "I find them hostile and predatory, ever eager to humiliate their rivals and never batting a beautifully made-up eyelid about falling into bed with someone else’s man.

"To them an adulterous affair is a feather in their cap, or merely another scalp. You see, French women don’t really like other women."

She used Miss Trierweiler, the partner of the new President Francois Hollande, has an example, under the headline: "Think I'm in love with myself? I'm a shrinking violet next to man-stealing French women".

"She’d brazenly stolen another woman’s man — the new President Francois Hollande — from under the nose of his unsuspecting partner and, in doing so, set herself a place at the top table of international politics," she claimed.

Miss Brick went on to describe Miss Trierweiler as failing to give "even a cursory nod to the 'sisterhood'" for posing in "glamorous attire" next to the outgoing wife of Sarkozy, Carla Bruni.

In a direct attack on her French female neighbours, she continued by complaining that they were not interested in "girlie shopping trips" or indulging in a cocktail after work.

Just like I can safely say men are all lying, cheating, lazy, drug-addled, drunken, self-absorbed a-holes because I used to know one.

Heeeeey!!! Drop the drug-addled thing and I would swear we've met.

:)

Madam I resent that. Some of us aren’t drug-addled.

Yeah, so? This has led to some really astonishing novels, movies and works of art.

Yeah, because we’re all exactly the same. Just like I can safely say men are all lying, cheating, lazy, drug-addled, drunken, self-absorbed a-holes because I used to know one.

By the way, you left out...lying, cheating, lazy, drug-addled, drunken, self-absorbed a-holes that make knee jerk responses on FR without giving any thought to the women on the thread...

I'm just sayin' ( and thanks for your kind forgiveness...I forgot to duck so it means a lot).

The French are mostly atheists these days, so women throwing themselves into adulterous relationships and stabbing each other in the back should not surprise anyone.

GREAT...

er, wait...I see what you are doing here....you are one of those socially acceptable, nice smelling, soft mammal types that keep trying to trick me into showering, shaving and putting on clean clothing...

I'll be in the garage now, rotating the beer in my man-fridge if anyone needs me...

Pshaw. Stop being so skittish. It’s just lil ol’ me.

Now if you could just go ahead and take the trash out on your way to the garage, that would be TERRIFIC. *bats eyes*

Carla's been overdoing it with the knife or botox or both.

Lazy?! C'mon. I do have the lying, cheating, drunken, self-absorbed a-hole part down. That's my job as an attorney, with the drunken part after the case is done. ;)

Don’t be redundant. You could have just identified yourself as an attorney. :D

(Hey! This stereotyping thing IS fun!)
