The French have always been protective of their language.

You do realize France helped us form this nation right? They armed us to fight the British and many fought with us.

Just pointing that out!

Honestly save for WWII, they tend to have been this through most of history.

And in WWII they were run over, and around, by a completely superior force. They were pragmatic when it made sense to be so. I love jokes about French cowardice, but like many generalizations, they are overstated. The French Rifle for sale: Never been fired, but has been dropped twice.

So much of their entire language is based on “gender.” I’ve been curious as to how all the Romance language people were addressing this nonsense.


Yeah - how do you address a transgendered hill??

Same with Spanish.

Old school English has its use of masculine to cover all bases too, but we moved to the "he/she" bs that the idea Spanish/French can still be this way blows the woke minds. I don't say "he/she." If I don't know the sex I say "he" until corrected. If someone says "they/them" I ask who all are they. Fun to mess with the woke heads.
