Interesting comments and insight. I am a female living in San Francisco where we have a lot of french people. To answer your questions, I think that for the most part Americans like french people (perceived as romantic, amazing food and wine) and sophisticated. However, they do have a reputation for being a bit arrogant and difficult. For example, they really tend to do things how they want to do them without caring what anyone else thinks (this can be both good and bad). Also, I have found many french men tend to have a somewhat inflated status of their 'sexiness' and can't seem to understand why any woman would not want them (they are French afterall). Of course, I am generalizing . . . but a few thoughts. Curious how French men view American women in the dating world.
