And germans. And belgians.

The t is silent

As we like to say in France, “on s’en bat les couilles”.

It says that a person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly, whatever its face features. The picture in the bottom shows a beautiful person with a wonky nose, crooked mouth, double chin, stick out teeth, but still not ugly.

What I get from that is that if you are a good person, aka having good thoughts, you are beautiful whatever your features. It’s a message telling children that it’s okay if they have bad features as long as they are nice. It’s about body positivity and spreading kindness, and I don’t understand why you are trying to twist the message.

And to add to this, I wholeheartedly agree with this. Look at musk, trump, bezos or zuck. Look at right wing influencers. They are ugly people, whatever makeup / face lifting / etc. they use. Even if they might have very nice to look at faces, I find them all ugly. They frown, they shout, they rarely smile, and when they do they smirk. Having good thoughts, especially towards other people, makes you beautiful.

That’s not what it says though. The second part is pretty clear about that.
