Glad you brought this up because I'm a new member, just signed up today, and I was dismayed at the content and tone of the posts I was reading with the French culture forum. So if that isn't typical around here, good.
I am an American living in Spain and hoping to move someday to France (before I get too old). I like Spain, but I believe I would like France more. I'm just poking around these days to see what other people are doing or have done.

I'm glad you have now pointed out where some of the negativity was based. However, people appear to have been reacting on a personal rather than a political level. Perhaps if the link was "Why I want to live in France", the string wouldn't have died on such a sour note?
