Fun With Ethnic Stereotypes

One of these middle-aged women is French and the other is German. Guess which is which.


If you guessed that the lithe, relatively attractive one on the left was French and the brusque, matronly one on the right was German, well, you'd be correct. The two women are French opposition party candidate Ségolène Royal and German chancellor Angela Merkel. Merkel, believe it or not, is actually a year younger than Royal, even though she looks ten years older.





P.S. Happy birthday Tigger!
