I assume that because Pere and Fils both have that smirky look, it's physical rather than attitudinal, at least in part. Fils is not in a class with Pere. I couldn't stand to look at Pere. I would either ignore or read his speeches, so strong was my reaction to it. Fils is tolerable, partly because I now recognize that it might be physical and partly because it is milder.

My point is only that such things are offputting and hard to overlook, particularly when the accompanying message is not palatable. It's a visceral thing. A hairlip one easily learns to not notice. A smirk continues to irk.
