Why are the all French so arrogant?

Travel Info
Is there a French word for humility? they need one, i dont get it they arent great at anything, just mediocra at very many things. chocolate, and beer form Belgium. Cheese form the Netherlands, food, and bread from the Spanish. Crafts from the swiss. Beach from croatia, euro-charm form Italy. All these lay a claim to being superior than their french counterpart.

Travel Tips

I only once experienced one arrogant French person. I cannot agree with your assessment that the French as a nation are arrogant. My experience with them is that they like to keep a little distance. As long as you respect this distance and don't hurt their national pride they are as friendly and charming as they come.
If your attitude in France was anything like your post here I do not wonder that you were treated badly. I don't like visitors who always think and say that things are better in other countries.

I can't follow your argument regarding the food. French food has nothing to do with Spanish food. If you think otherwise you were at the wrong restaurants. And French cheese is exquisite. Brie and Camembert are just the internationally best known French cheeses. But there are other cheeses that are excellent as well. And French wine, cider, and brandy - Cognac and Armagnac - are "merveilleux" or marvelous too.

One thing they are good at is keeping slim - I have yet to see a fat person in France. Also the French men amek great lovers!

when I went to Paris they didn't seem so arrogant to me, but that was my experience.
Their arrogance is just a facade, they know that their time was over decades ago. A second rank national power, with a dead language, they can only hold on to their past second rank glory.

Still it is a nice place to visit.
because they are bluffing.
you better learn a little bit about culture and where things are from first, before saying French people are arrogant

1) there are 365 kind of cheeses in France...TRUE
2) chocolate are also made in Switzerland and better known than Belgian ones
3)Beer: let's the German taking care of
4)Bread: have you had baguette? don't think Spain is famous for their bread.
Beaches: Go to the French Riviera, and then you can talk about Croatia.
5) How come you did not mentioned WINE???
6) And about fashion and perfumes, which are known world wide.

etc..etc...

Stop bitching and go there. You will be very surprise.
