Well I have met French female tourists and talked to men who have dated them and in general I was very unimpressed by the slovenly habits of the French but really Europeans in general.
Many shower only on Fridays/Saturdays before going out for their weekly sortie. Americans, Australians, Africans and Australians bathe daily or more than once.
