5 Things to Know about Â鶹APPian Men<\/h1>\n

If there is one thing that has been debated over and over on the internet, it is that je-ne-sais-quoi that Â鶹APPian women and men are known to have. Everyone seems to agree that French people do it better \u2013 or at least do it fairly differently.<\/p>\n

If French women\u2019s lifestyles are at the center of many people\u2019s fantasies (think Farida Khelfa, Catherine Deneuve, Ines de la Fressange, Leila Bekhti), they tend to be romanticized a lot, which almost always erases some of the incredible diversity of French women.<\/p>\n

Clich\u00e9s on the French art de vivre<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The past few years have seen a boom of brands riding the worldwide interest for the French art de vivre: think Jeanne Damas and her brand Rouje, Simon Porte Jacquemus or Sabrina Socol.<\/p>\n

These brands sell a univocal image of an ethereal and fantasized image of the French woman and the French man, participating in building up the misconceptions about French people.<\/p>\n

These misconceptions are not easy to debunk, because they are quite often perpetuated by French people themselves, who build their national pride on some of them. They also have a particular pleasure in actively trying to fit in the clich\u00e9s, which makes the relation between French people and their fantasized selves quite intricate.<\/p>\n

As a French woman myself, I have to admit I am often amused by the amount of clich\u00e9s you can encounter on the internet if you look for a description of what constitutes the essence of French people.<\/p>\n

What makes Â鶹APPian men unique<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Now, of course, some of these clich\u00e9s are<\/em> true: no smoke without fire, or as we say, pas de fum\u00e9e sans feu<\/em>! Yes, French men smoke more than other nationalities and sitting at a caf\u00e9\u2019s terrace for hours while drinking red wine is of course part of their lifestyle.<\/p>\n

This vision is, however, only a fraction of the true of what make Â鶹APPian men unique.<\/p>\n

You also have to bear in mind that behind the Â鶹APPian man lies socio-economic realities that are incredibly diverse and that cannot be generalized.<\/p>\n

This article hence is not a sociological analysis of all Â鶹APPian men \u2013 but rather me confronting the clich\u00e9s I often hear about French men to the men coming from the social environment which I know and belong to. This social environment only represents a fraction of Â鶹APPian men: well-off enough to live in center Â鶹APP, and bourgeois boh\u00e8me<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In this article, I will list the 5 most important things you need to know about Â鶹APPian Men. It is famous French writer Sacha Guitry who said that \u201cBeing Â鶹APPian does not mean being born in Â鶹APP, it means having reborn there\u201d.<\/p>\n

Thus, this article will highlight some of the cultural particularities that are crystallized in Â鶹APP, and influence the behaviors of some men who fall in love there \u2013 with another individual or with the city.<\/p>\n

1. They tend to prefer natural women<\/strong><\/h4>\n

It is absolutely true that Â鶹APP\u2019 idea of a beautiful woman is a woman considered \u2018natural\u2019. Natural means fresh and clean without trying to be spectacular: extremely well-tailored clothing, messy hair and a glowy face.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Caroline de Maigret is an excellent example of the woman considered beautiful by French standards. Her long, messy hair, her glowy skin and her laid back yet very elegant looks have made her famous for being quintessentially Â鶹APPian.<\/p>\n

However, be careful: people often make a shortcut about Â鶹APPian men: they think that because they tend to prefer natural woman, that makes them less attached to looks.<\/p>\n

To my mind, this is absolutely false. Â鶹APPian men do not pay less attention to looks, they just have a slightly different idea of what they consider beautiful.<\/p>\n

Preferring natural women does not make it easier on women either: they are still expected to meet a beauty standard, however they are also expected to conceal their efforts to look easy-going and natural.<\/p>\n

2. They have a very French way of dating<\/strong><\/h4>\n
\"\"

You may have heard that in France, we do not date like in other cultures (specifically, we do not date like Americans). Flirting and dating here is indeed way less codified that in the United States.<\/p>\n

There is no such thing as a set of rules of what you are supposed to do during the first date, second date, third date.<\/p>\n

Â鶹APPian men will typically ask you out to have coffee in the middle day: it not a date neither is it a casual hang out: it is just you and him, at a terrace, enjoying each other\u2019s company.<\/p>\n

That does not mean Â鶹APPian men are less prone to commitment \u2013 they just consider these things come naturally, without necessarily having to define the relationship with a formal talk. They are tend to be much more instinctive.<\/p>\n

\"\"

However, a clich\u00e9 I have encountered many times is saying that Â鶹APPian men have a more casual way of dating than other men. I think this is absolutely false.<\/p>\n

Indeed, \u2018Netflix and Chill\u2019 culture is virtually inexistent here. When going out, Â鶹APPian men pay immense attention to the value of the moment you are about to spend together.<\/p>\n

They will often not suggest a fancy restaurant, but maybe a coffee in their favorite coffee shop (never ever Starbucks). Or if they invite you over, they will cook a nice dinner for you.<\/p>\n

3. They love to enjoy the simple things<\/strong><\/h4>\n
\"\"

This is somehow linked to what I was telling you just above about Â鶹APPian men paying immense attention to the moment you spend together.<\/p>\n

They indeed pay attention to a lot of little details of their daily life: what they eat, where they eat, which wine they drink, if their coffee is good, what path they take to go to work to give them the most enchanting view of streets they see everyday.<\/p>\n

This is where, in my sense, lies their sophistication: not that much in the degree of fanciness of their clothes or food, but rather in the attention they pay to them.<\/p>\n

\"\"

The idea of an ideal evening for a Â鶹APPian man during spring is often jeans and t-shirts, a good bottle of fine, sitting on their favorite spot on the banks of the seine and watching the sun set while listening to music.<\/p>\n

On a winter\u2019s evening, spending six hours at a caf\u00e9\u2019s terrace while debating intellectual and trivial thing with the same amount of attention.<\/p>\n

The essence of the Â鶹APPian men\u2019s lifestyle is not exactly what they do (because they do so many different things), but rather the attention they pay to it.<\/p>\n

4. They are looking for partners in crime<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"

I am not talking only of dating here, but also about all kind of human relationships. Â鶹APPian men value dense minds who they will be able to enjoy everything with \u2013 whether going out to dance, quickly running to the supermarket to get humus and olives or spending countless hours debating.<\/p>\n

This means that they tend to appreciate people who are both complex individuals but also able to appreciate the simplest things from daily life (see above), but also add their own perspective to them.<\/p>\n

What does that change in your daily interactions with them, will you ask me?<\/p>\n

Well, if you are willing to bond with a Â鶹APPian man (whether romantically or platonically), you have to ask yourself: what makes the perspective you have on the world unique? And do you embody this perception in your daily life? What happened today that was a meaningful or beautiful moment to share?<\/p>\n

5. Culture is part of their lifestyle<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"

Once again, bear in mind that I am talking about a specific social environment \u2013 but I think that culture is intrinsically linked to the Â鶹APPian man\u2019s lifestyle. Â鶹APP is one of the most famous cultural capitals of the world, and music, museums, cinema, photography and literature infuse and irrigate the city in a lot of ways.<\/p>\n

It would be false to tell you that all Â鶹APPian men go to visit exhibitions twice a week, but I think they do much more often than the average.<\/p>\n

Cinema in particular is a very important part of Â鶹APPian men\u2019s lives, and a lot of Â鶹APPians who can afford it have an UCG-illimit\u00e9 card: a card that allows you to go to the movies as many times as you want.<\/p>\n

\"\"

They are all very proud of their likes and dislikes, and often put more energy into passionately hating certain things that on discovering new things they might like. And, of course, you sure know that Â鶹APPian men can get snobbish.<\/p>\n

It is part of their character, and they often take pride in it: see Benjamin Biolay (a very Â鶹APPian French singer who is considered an icon in France) famous cover of Je suis snob<\/a> (I am snobbish), written by Boris Vian (a very famous French writer).<\/p>\n

\"\"

Culture is very important in French identity, and most museums are free for under 26 year-old French people.<\/p>\n

Some French schools take children to museums from a very early age \u2013 culture is everywhere and even though not everyone is familiar with every aspect, most Â鶹APPians have a sense of awareness about the importance of confronting yourself to cultural objects \u2013 because it helps them think and develop their sensitivity.<\/p>\n

—<\/p>\n

I could go on and on about this topic but it is time for me to close this article. I hope this article gave you a good overview of some cultural specificities of Â鶹APPian men.<\/p>\n

As you may have understood, being Â鶹APPian is not so much about what we do but rather on how we look at what we do, our perspective on life.<\/p>\n

I think this is what Sacha Guitry meant when he wrote the sentence that I shared with you at the start of this article: \u201cBeing Â鶹APPian does not mean being born in Â鶹APP, it means being reborn there\u201d.<\/p>\n

To my mind, what he means by being \u201creborn\u201d in Â鶹APP is a matter of finding a fresh, curious about everything, carefree yet stable perspective. And working relentlessly to nurture this perspective and look at life through this lens.<\/p>\n

Being Â鶹APPian is in the end about nurturing \u2013 nurturing your ability to grow and inhabit the world in the most beautiful and meaningful manner possible, and applying this way of inhabiting the world to your dwelling in Â鶹APP.<\/p>\n

It is in that sense that almost anyone can have a Â鶹APPian spirit, and that some famous Â鶹APPian icons are not French \u2013 Jane Birkin being the most famous example.<\/p>\n
