The other day via Benjamin Pelletier (Gestion des riques interculturels) I followed a link to this article about cultural stereotypes in advertisements, Clichés : à quoi reconnaît-on un Français dans une pub étrangère ?, and there it was. Just as funny today as it was a few years back. Enjoy and vive la pub!

Ah, les Parisiens. So unpopular, especially among their countrymen, that a newspaper can make fun of them and expect everyone to relate to all the stereotypes! These were really funny, Victoria. The beach one is only partially inaccurate: A true Parisian would have picked the most crowded spot to spread his towel. Everyone knows Parisians LOVE crowds, even on vacation :-) Signed: Veronique, toulousaine (French Girl in Seattle)
I have been to Paris three times, there is this INRA office 4 blocks from the Eiffel tower. INRA is here http://www.inra.fr/. The main thing I notice about Parisians is that they smoke way too much. Victoria you need to smoke less.
