The French economy is completely dilated and ready for another hard fucking.

I hear all the bottoms in France carry a white flag.

Carry on.

First of all, believe nothing from The Guardian. It is a biased rag.

People seem to be upset about the word 'dilated' but they should be blaming the translator rather than the author.

The original says "Je suis dilatée comme jamais!"

No, people aren't upset about "dilated." They're pointing and laughing about "dilated." (The entire passage is ridiculous and risible.)

What people are upset about is that the economy minister is spending time writing and publishing a lame-ass "erotic" novel when France is going through economic turmoil.

"... after my period, for two or three days, I've been more excited than ever; I'm all wet." She lifted her pale grey t-shirt to show off her breasts: "You've seen how big they are today, Oskar? You've seen?" She took it off completely, revealing in the hollow of her armpits little red dots like mosquito bites. She turned her back to me; she threw herself onto the bed; she showed me the brown bulge of her anus: "Are you coming, Oskar? I've never been so dilated." Saying these words she had the face of an angel; if she was mad with love, I was in ecstasy.​

​

Because for the young student whose sexual experience to that point had been limited to sober tricks quickly executed in the dark, Julia was a revelation; she was light; she was life.​

​

"I'm coming, Julia, I'm coming."​

​

And I took her, screaming words that the most elementary decency forbids me to record in this chronicle of a disaster foretold.​

 

[NotHardUp1]

The irony of the French resenting their minister not working hard. A nation with the most notorious reputation for not working, outside Italy, has the temerity to imply that their government should work harder than they do.

All that before you consider that their complaint is that inflation is solved by finance ministers working overtime, as if the economic problem was not fueled by the Ukraine invasion, Russia's fuel manipulations, and COVID supply chain problems.

No man working into the night is going to tame inflation just because the croissant addicts can't handle the truth.

Which news sources do you find to be unbiased?

This. Is. Beyond. Hilarious.

Someone is having a very bad mid-life crisis here.

Add to that the spectacular sensationalism of some French media.
At least he's a pure souche French man, so xenophobia can't be the issue here.

The Bad Sex in Fiction Award is usually limited to books published in English, but I bet the judges make an exception this year.
