kittydesadeVraiment, chérie, tu ne peut pas faire ton exercices si tu est debout sur ton pantalon. Pareillement, tu ne peut pas être une courtisane brillante et belle si tu ne développe pas de discipline.

The somewhat frightening thing is I'm slowly getting better at French this way, too. Things are coming back to me. Sorry, guys, if this is irritating I can put it behind a cut, too.
Definitely need to get more efficient in the mornings, though, if I'm going to do this.
ETA: DUDE. I got a grammar point all by myself with only a couple of examples and a sleepy Kiki as my guide! VICTORY IS MINE!
Ahem. The grammar point: When это is used as a generic/default in conjunction with the presumed 'to be' verb, it is simply that. When it is used in conjunction with a gendered noun, it takes the gender of the noun. e.g. [Это] [моя собака] - [This is] [my dog], against [эта собака] [моя] [This dog] [is mine.]
