...comedy that similarly pokes fun at notorious French stereotypes. But whereas the Bronzés film was just the latest in a hugely popular series spanning back to the original 1978 film, Bienvenu chez les Ch'tis has been a bolt-from-the-blue phenomenon. Its simple, sex- and violence-free tale about normal, unappreciated people has many critics comparing it the 2001 French smash hit Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain (Amélie in the U.S.).

That may explain why an estimated 500,000 patients in France visit sex counselors. But the study shows that some enduring French sexual myths are in fact without foundation, particularly the traditional contention of French men that their naturally larger sexual appetites give them grounds to fool around more. French women, it turns out, could make the same argument...
