So Francomisia?
And the person would be a Francomiso?
I think you could just call that person a Dan or whatever other name they call me :p

Francophile = A person who admires France, its people, or its culture.
Francophobe = A person who dislikes or fears France, its people, or its culture.
Dan = A person who dislikes France, its people, or its culture.
I think the word you're looking for is 'rational' or the hyphenate: 'freedom-loving'...
