BusinessWeek: France is famous for its relaxed attitude to affairs of the heart (and loins). Unlike in the Anglo-Saxon world, the existence of extra-marital affairs — from the fictional Madame Bovary to former President Francois Mitterrand — is taken for granted there. French men even have a term for their mistresses: Le cinq á sept (the 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.). Now French adulterers are being offered a discreet and tailor-made service to help them indulge in their dalliances without getting caught.
The Alibila Web site offers a service for people “suffocating” in their family situation who need some air, or for those in the throes of a “passing adventure” who don’t want to jeopardize their marriage. It offers would-be philanderers a range of services, costing €19 ($27) upwards, including diversionary phone calls, merchandise from fake conferences, and invitations to non-existent weddings.

Haha, you really don’t know french culture to think that!
I’m not french, but i can say that they do not grant extra-marital affairs.
They have as many extra-marital affairs as the american people, the only difference is that they are less hypocrite than american people!
