No way, if anything it’s the other way around! You guys wish (and project).

The only time a European woman will ever tell you to “sit down and relax” is when she wants to break up with you.

This seems to play into the whole QAnon 'where are all the trad wives?' narrative that seeks to rob American women of their agency based on a wishful notion that European women are more traditional: stunning to look at, loyal, strong but subservient, modest but not prudish. Keen to cook, clean and pop out your children. Virginal but somehow utter filth in the bedroom. A Billy Graham outlook on woman mangled by an unceasing addiction to streaming pornography services.

Perhaps to whoever made the video made the reductivist assumption that Europe is just one big country? Paris is in one corner and Athens in the other, with Copenhagen on the top and Rome at the bottom.

I like the profound intellectual concept, Alan,

European women are more traditional: tuning to look at, loyal, strong but subservient, modest but not prudish. Keen to cook, clean and pop out your children. Virginal but somehow utter filth in the bedroom.

... but do tell me when you've found out where they actually breed!

I think whoever made this just did it as a joke.  It wasn't meant to be taken seriously.  At least that's my take on it.  If I took it seriously, I wouldn't have even posted it.  It's true I have been around European women quite a lot.  But I've been around American women way more.  My only real criticism of American women is that many of them wear too much make-up.  I do have to admit Europeans have an edge on American women in knowing how to use make-up in moderation.  Other than that, though, it's no exaggeration to say I have zero complaints about American women.

Revlon founder Charles Revson used to speak at business education conferences, and he would start out with: "We don't sell cosmetics, we sell hope." He was right!

Most men’s concepts whether a woman wears “no”, “only a little” or “too much make-up” are vague at best and not really accurate, layman’s views! Women are way better in determining it. Most men mistake “no make-up” with “skill- and tastefully applied make-up”.

I agree!

I would say that when it comes to understanding the complexities of makeup, most men (including myself) are rank amateurs.
