That's ironic because I'm friends with a French person and they tell me France is one of the most bigoted countries in western Europe. Particularly towards women.
Ah shit, we got got, they are onto us. He has THE friend that said we are all bigoted especially toward womans !
Noooo!
In all seriousness, having lived in France for 35 years and traveled extensively throughout Europe this is not AT ALL my experience.
Religions has very little impact here and to my delight it seems like it's on the downward trend.

As you can see we are not a particularly religious country and I think it doesn't play as much as in other countries in Europe.
Also, we have fairly stricter than usual laws concerning religious displays in schools and other public spaces.
At least I highly doubt we are one of the most bigoted country considering our laws concerning religions and considering the rather low rate of religious people here.
Wtf does religion have to do with this
