Are you asking if the sequence "aux femmes" exists?

If so yes, it does

Example: "il parle aux femmes"

"He is speaking to the women"

[errant socket]

No I'm asking if it's correct, because I was under the impression that aux refers to masculine objects

[trim depot]

"aux" is the contraction of "à les", so it can refer to both masculine and feminine objects.

"les" is plural masculine and also plural feminine

[errant socket]

Oh okay

Thanks

[fickle tundra]

au is masculin

[errant socket]

Yeah that's why I thought that aux was only used for masculine

[versed vortex]

also in this context "boire aux dames" means drink to the ladies, idk if it's very clear

[errant socket]

Yeah I understood that

[versed vortex]

and for the t in boivent it's because this song is kinda old but nobody pronunce it now, you can but not in spoken french

[versed vortex]

oh great! sorry for pointing it out then 😭
