Person A : Can you give me a link to a study or article that validates your claim ?

How a poser spells "poser".
As the online etymology dictionary states, "The word is English poser in French garb, and thus could itself be considered an affectation."
The French word "poseur" is absolutely not used in that context, which further points out that this spelling is not the correct, original one.
