>>So does the poet indirectly condemn the multifaceted sexual mores of the Americans and/or the Canadians, or what?

I think it matters not. In fact, most frenchmen probably just aim for the nearest hairy spot on their female companion, which is just as likely to be an armpit as any other body part.

Personally, I find greater humor in "They fight with their feet". I once read that French military commanders would collect all white underwear from their troops before going into battle to make retreat or surrender more difficult. Assuming of course that they bothered to wear underwear....

WW, I commend you for your repeated attempts to defend the indefensible. <ggg>
