Real answer here: The French have social connections. They have large extended families and friends and they all hang out and eat bread or some shit. That's where they talk about all this stuff. We have atomic families and slowly lose our friends and we barely talk about anything other than sport or drink. Our institutions like universities are built for profit. Our lifestyles are wire-thin, we work way too hard, and this means we don't have the connective tissue to form a society; we're just a bunch of individuals.
