Australian Men: Droolworthy or Not?
Everyone has preferences when it comes to dating. Mine? I like foreign men. (Or, as my friend The E would say—“You and me? We don’t do domestic dick. We like our dick imported.”) So, it should come as no surprise to you that I recently met a charming young man from Australia. He’s funny, successful and very very attractive. Man, I LOOOOVE Australian accents. So, as I’m sitting here thinking about ideas for blog today’s topic, I figure: why not dedicate this day to those little guys from down under?
Australian men. Lately, for some reason, they seem to end up in steamy trysts with Sanaa Lathan on screen ( … first Simon Baker in Something New and now Julian McMahon in Nip Tuck). Hmm … What else do I known about Aussie men? They seem to have a reputation for being extremists — either rugged, violent-tempered cavemen who hurl their phones at innocent bystanders or nervous wrecks, metrosexual knobs, and tossbags. Nevertheless, hotties like Curtis Stone definitely do a hell of a PR job for Aussie Men. The first time that I saw his cooking show on TLC, I thought: Him. Feed me him. I’m hungry for Australian. So, needless to say, when my friends and I went out the other night and the hot Aussie guy started chatting me up, I was definitely interested.
The Aussie Guy tells me that he’s in New York on business, and he’ll return to Australia soon. He also tells me that he’s somewhat of a minor celebrity in Australia. Being the jaded and cynical NYC-dwelling woman that I am, I just assume he’s lying. (NOTE: Later, I google him. Oddly enough, he isn’t lying.) Anyway, the conversation continues. We swap numbers. He calls me. I call him back. Repeat cycle. Yada, yada, yada, a few days later we’re sharing jokes, dinner and drinks downtown. Fun guy.
And, since today seems to be shaping up to be Aussie Day at the Funky Brown Chick, now it’s YOUR turn to share your Aussie story. Have any of you seen the show “Take Home Chef“? Have you been to Australia? Do you like Australian ice cream? Do you have any thoughts about Aussie men? And, of course, the ultimate question: Are Aussie Men Droolworthy or Not?
October 24th, 2006 at 11:54 am
Yeah, they’re hot and great to listen to blah, blah, blah….
Don’t let him go, Stolie! Be the predator! :)
October 24th, 2006 at 11:56 am
Uh, I mean a predator in a sexy, non-violent way. I was just excited that you met someone who seems to be honest.
October 24th, 2006 at 2:14 pm
I have little experience with the Aussies, so if you deem them droolworthy, then they are.
Wow. You’d think I was of Swiss decent rather than Dutch.
October 24th, 2006 at 2:44 pm
Howard: Yeah, the dating scene here has me a bit jaded. It’s probably not a good thing, but my starting assumption was that the guy was lying to me and/or trying to get in my pants.
MamaChristy: I’ve never dated an Aussie, and I’ve never been to Australia. :) But, the current Aussie Guy is a cutie.

Ausi ppl may be kool to you who live on the other side… but when you live across the ditch (AKA Tasman Sea) we tend to think Ausi ppl in general suck… it’s a Kiwi thing to “hate” Ausi ppl…and we make fun of their accent and what not. Interstingly enough, Ausi chiks dig Kiwi accent …go figure
October 24th, 2006 at 5:45 pm
I take it you don’t get ‘Neighbours’ over there. I’ve watched it since I was a baby and it kicked off my love of Australian men. The ones I’ve met have been one extreme or the other. Maybe I’ll get down there one day and check the rest of them out. Have fun with this one Stolie!
October 24th, 2006 at 6:16 pm
He does sound rather nice! My experiences with Aussie, hmm how do I say this…I love the genuine Aussie accent “G’day Mate” but see, I know quite a few people from my school in Sri Lanka who went to Aussie for Uni and picked up the same accent in like 2 days. Then they come to holiday in Sri Lanka and pretend they’ve lived in Aussie all their life and the accent is part of them. Bollocks!
So in that sense, I’m not a fan of Aussie because everyone I know from there (not natives mind you) are annoying irritating twats. Men who are really from down under on the other hand, very attractive!
October 24th, 2006 at 6:30 pm
First, my credentials: I studied in Australia. I’ve slept with um, a few Australians. I’ve had an Australian boyfriend.
Australians, in my opinion, are no hotter than the men in any other country. In general they tend to be a little fitter, a little darker and a little louder than their northern hemisphere counterparts, but I’ve also seen some really fat, pale and boring Ockers – just as I’ve met some super hot, super fit, super tan and super fun English men.
That said, Hugh Jackman breaks every single rule and generalisation, because he is my walking wet dream and therefore perfect in every single way.
October 24th, 2006 at 7:18 pm
This post made me come out of my lurking status. Yes, I LOVE Australian men…I was in Australia in June and I could not believe (nor could I put my finger on) the attraction that I have for them. Just something about them drives me wild.
October 24th, 2006 at 7:18 pm
…yes they are definately drool worthy!
October 24th, 2006 at 11:43 pm
I have met a few Aussies last year, they were so cute I was speechless!! Oh, my gosh.. on my next trip I’m going guy-hunting in Australia!! What is it with that country!?! The accent has a lot to do, jeezz.. it hipnotizes u! So you said he was a minor celebrity!! How is he a known guy back there?? does he have a cool career or is he just a suit guy?? details, plz! OK, I’m going to bed… but please.. gimme good gossip! Bye!
October 25th, 2006 at 12:09 am
I’m embarassed to say my only exposure to Aussie men of late is the Take Home Chef, who is incredibly sexy…but I suspect he’s wearing eyeliner and for some reason that really, really bothers me.
Probably because it breaks Eddie’s #6 Dating Rule: There will be no dating of men who wear more makeup than Eddie.
Not that the Take Home Chef would ever ask me out. I also suspect he’s either A) Married or B)Gay. So it goes.
October 25th, 2006 at 3:14 am
who is he Stolie? Minor celebrity.. hmmmm… most celebrities in Australia are rather minor… I’m dying to know!
As an aussie girl, i don’t see the huge amount of attraction to the aussie accent. in fact, i don’t believe we have an accent. everyone else does – not us (many drunk arguments in Boston bars).
the men? well, some ARE sexy… i really think it’s the attitude that makes the man, and most aussie guys (and girls for that matter) tend to be pretty cool and laid back, which i think is attractive…
anyway, i’m bias!
October 25th, 2006 at 5:42 am
Momok: I think a lot of countries kind of pick on their neighbors. The Brits hate the French. Aussies vs. Kiwis. Canadians make American jokes … In New York, people make fun of New Jersey. And, when I lived in Illinois, we would tell Indiana and Iowa jokes.
Nics: I’ve seen Neighbours before, but only in England. I’m not sure if we get it here because my cable doesn’t include BBC America.
Darwin: I pity the fool who fakes an accent! :) I think I did a post about that American guy who faked an English accent because he’d lived there for a matter of MONTHS, didn’t I? He was ANNOYING!!! Accents are viruses, people; you don’t “catch” them by mere exposure.
CeeCee: YAY!!!!! So THAT’S why everyone is lurking?!?! I’m not writing about anything that actually makes you want to comment??? ;) Kidding. But, yeah, I totally know what you mean about the guys. Shit, I should take a vacation to Australia!!! Why haven’t I gone there already?!?!?! Oh yeah, that’s right, no money. It costs over a grand to fly to OZ from the US.
Nat: I would tell you his name, but that wouldn’t be fair. I don’t “out” people mentioned on the FBC. But, trust me, I soooooo wish that I could!!!!! And, about your question … Broadly speaking, he’s not a suite, he’s got a cool career in the entertainment world. And, he’s CUTE! :)
eddie: Oh, he is soooo wearing blue eyeliner on his eyes **AND** a rosie-colored blush on his cheeks. I’ve only seen one full episode of the show, but that’s one of first things I noticed. “That guy’s got on a lot of makeup!!!” By the way, according to him, he’s neither married nor gay. But, I suspect he’s only saying that because he thinks it will keep women watching. It works. I’m watching. But, hell, I like looking at him so I’d probably watch that show even if he was married AND gay! :)
Little A: Man, I soooo wish that I could tell!!!!!! :) And, I think you’re dead on about the laid back stuff. There’s something really sexy about it.
October 25th, 2006 at 5:50 am
I’ve never heard of the Take Home Chef and I’m an Ozzie!! go figure.
It’s funny coz being an Ozzie I tend to loooooove the black male species. Just something funky ;o) about them .. hehe
Oh and for the record .. we don’t have an accent .. everyone else does!! ;o)
October 25th, 2006 at 7:29 am
I too lived under the delusion – sorry: impression – that Australian men are hot and sexy. Then I moved here……
On the whole? Australian men are sexist pigs, that are cheap as, who care more about footy/surfing/their mates then about women – unless they’re working their way to getting a root…..
However, there are exceptions to the rule…There’s a guy I work with who is hysterically funny, nice, kind, sensitive – maybe not overly hot – but still decent. Okay – maybe I should stop being so harsh. But hey – don’t completely ignore my previous paragraph!
So who’s the guy? Email me his name and I’ll let you know if his story is true…..
Now – if all you’re looking for is a shag – by all means – go with the hot guy!
P.S. If you ever do make it my way – you better plan on telling me!!!
October 25th, 2006 at 3:45 pm
Stolie baby, this is a glitch alert. I left a comment last night. When I couldn’t find it on the commentbox, I resubmitted it, only to be told that I’d ‘already said it’ (or something to that effect). So I left it.
It’s STILL NOT HERE!
October 25th, 2006 at 11:44 pm
did you delete my comment?
:o( *sniff sniff*
October 26th, 2006 at 12:17 am
Jay: THANKS for alerting me of the glitch!! My spam-blocker is a bit overactive. (Your comment disappeared to the limbo land because you said “wet dream”.) By the way, for the record, I don’t why, but Hugh Jackman doesn’t really do it for me. :)
Bexxie: Stated or unstated, we all have our preferences. Now, about the Take Home Chef … I kinda get the feeling that he has made a name for himself in the US, but no one really knows him in Australia. He’s a “novelty” here. He’s probably “just another guy” there. By the way, for the record … OF COURSE I didn’t delete your comment. I don’t delete ANYONE’S comments unless they include personal attacks against me or one of my readers. Like Jay, you were automatically held in the queue of naughty messages because you included “black male” in your comment. (I get about 100 – 200 auto-spam messages per day; every now and then it will catch something that it’s not supposed to catch.)
Lala: Ooooh, I wish I had Aussie male readers. Poor guys can’t stick up for themselves here. :) And, about the guy, I totally googled him. Everything matches up. And, OF COURSE, I’ll let you know if/when I make it to Australia!!! It’s on my list of Places to See.
November 23rd, 2006 at 9:45 pm
So you still haven’t told us who your hot Aussie date was? A phone throwing actor? Or a sizzling chef, perhaps?
November 24th, 2006 at 2:08 pm
Mum is the word. :) … But, I can assure you that it was neither the chef nor the phone thrower.
November 28th, 2006 at 12:31 am
Oh boy, i fall in love with an Aussie guy from Perth and he’s bad. He made so many promises and nothing happened. he only likes sex things and he even send me a picture of his cock. Everytime he calls me at night he always ask me what color of undies i am wearing. I love him but he only excites me. Whatever, i still love him. MY from manila, Phils.
November 28th, 2006 at 12:39 am
I hope you could find me an Ausie guy. I really like them of being so sweet and romantic.
November 28th, 2006 at 12:46 am
Minnie: Sounds like a very special relationship.
Sweet: I’m can’t promise to find you an Aussie down in Makati, but I’m sure you’ll find one if that’s what you’re looking for. You’re probably geographically closer to them than I am; you’ll be fine. :)
December 11th, 2006 at 9:06 pm
Hi, I’m an Australian guy, who has just stumbled on this site. :) Great to know we have a few fans out there. I’m moving to London in 2007, so I’m practicing talking without Australian slang… From a guy’s point of view, I really love the accent from Kentucky USA and certain accents from the UK. Irish accents put me to sleep. For the record, I’m not one of the hot Aussie Guys… so no one get too excited, and I’m a suit… so dont even have a funky cooking job! hahah :)
December 11th, 2006 at 10:30 pm
YAY!!!!! I love my Aussie readers!!!!
And, what’s this about you “talking without Australian slang”? The Aussie accent is the sexiest accent in the world. Don’t change a thing. :)
November 8th, 2007 at 4:43 pm
I’m a New Yorker and met the man of my dreams online 2 years ago. Keith is from melbourne. Im proud to say that we are happily living together in our cozy apartment in NYC. Its nice to wake up every morning seeing his blonde curls and whenever he says “I love you Kirk”, I thought I havent woke up from a wonderful dream. Sure the accent is a plus, but its his down under charm and heart that captured my soul. I love you Keith…
November 9th, 2007 at 10:29 am
Awww! It’s like an episode of “Kirk and Keith in Love”. :)
December 16th, 2007 at 2:09 am
Huh? I have lived in Australia for almost ten years, and the Aussie guy, in general, is the most passive and lazy male ever, when it comes to dating. Seriously, Aussie guys make no effort when it comes to women.
(And many of them are fat and mostly they dress badly. The straight ones, I mean. Sydney is a huge gay capital and there are lots of hot gay boys, on the other hand).
Talked to friends who also are from overseas originally, and they agree. Give Australia a miss, unless of course you get lucky with a good one!
December 16th, 2007 at 7:28 am
Man, you make Aussie guys sound so unappealing and gross! :) I haven’t met many, so I wouldn’t know.
January 8th, 2008 at 4:11 am

@ funaussie1969: Hey, if you ever want me to set you up on a date via my blog, just let me know. :) I’ve got quite a few readers down there in GA.
@ Martine: I commend you on your fine taste in men!
March 19th, 2008 at 7:51 pm
omg australian guys CAN be really cute!!! like any other country they have hotties ,perverts, sexsits(sp) and really ugly guys.
well, when i went to a work convention with my mom (i’m 16) there was a huge group of aussies and one particular guy was HOT ,charming and funny . sadly, he was older and married. But, my hopes are still up
if not by an aussie than by my native country of spain’s some what fine selection
March 19th, 2008 at 7:55 pm
Hey! Aussie aussie aussie dude or dudette! i’m hispanic (spain) but i’ve lived most of my like in the us. true, some americans can be really boring but my fellow floridians and some californians(not the valley girl type) are laid back and can have fun!
March 19th, 2008 at 8:19 pm
Wow! You’re only 16? Hmmmm … how did you find out about my blog?
March 19th, 2008 at 8:27 pm
in the wonders of google
May 19th, 2008 at 3:59 pm
I do have a thing for the aussie men. I have no clue why, I have never dated one nor have I ever been to ausy. I am from Turkey and lived in US for about 5 years. My accent always helped me get whatever I want. I was just googling aussie, and then i came across to this blug. And if this ordinaryaussieguy ever wants to take a quick trip to Istanbul, i would like to take this hot suit aussie man around the town.
May 30th, 2008 at 6:34 am
I’ve lived in Australia for four years – they’re not drool worthy at all. There’s a reason Australian men have a reputation for being sexist. They have no respect for women whatsoever. Of course there are nice boys in every country, but less so in Australia.
May 30th, 2008 at 12:00 pm
raquel: Yes, Google is quite wonderful.
cute turkish girl: Thanks for stopping by the blog! :)
Jas: Oh, the stories I’ve heard about Aussie guys. Sheesh! They’re something special.
June 18th, 2008 at 10:00 pm
I have been talking to a guy that lives in Australia and I must say that they are DEFINITELY droolworthy. I swear that I have fallen in love with his accent but its not a really prominent Steve Irwin accent its really subtle and I think that thats hotter. I don’t know about other Aussie men but my guy is the one of most gentle, caring, sweet guys that I have ever met. He sends chills down my spine.
June 19th, 2008 at 4:26 am
What’s wrong with Aussie men???? Not all of them are like that.
Proof that Australian men are sexy: David Wenham (actor) He is soooooooooooooo gorgeous!
June 19th, 2008 at 5:55 am
@ Kaeve: LOVE the Aussie accent. I’ve soooo gotta make a trip down there someday. They need more brown people down there. When Whoopi Goldberg went, she said she felt like a raisin in a big ol’ glass of milk.
@ Hey: I love gorgeous men. :)
June 28th, 2008 at 12:22 am
Aussie boys are pretty damn fine. I live in da A-town and there are many attractive, successful men here, of all colors/nationalities. I love Atlanta for that but the southern-boy charm ain’t good enough when a hot aussie comes around.
I’m a pretty hot chocolate girl myself but i fall apart when I hear that accent.
Had my 1st aussie experience last year and haven’t recovered since. ;-)
All jokes aside, if any aussie (male or female) comes to Atlanta and needs a tour guide…I’m down anytime. I always enjoy showing off my city. Oh, and there’s a great Aussie Bakery in the East Atlanta Village…probably the only place in the city to get meat pies. Cheers!
June 30th, 2008 at 11:32 am
Atlanta is actually really international! I’m not sure why, but that kind of surprised me when I went down there for a visit.
July 2nd, 2008 at 1:46 am
THANK GOD FOR GOOGLE … LOL !!
G’Day, I’m an Aussies guy who’s just stumbled across your site via google. And i must admit ive been reading these posts with a cheeky grin on me face and a twinkle in my eye ;-)
I’ve always wanted to take a trip to the states, and have always had a thing for US women! I once met a girl from the states when she was here in Oz, fell in love with her and almost married her, gotta say i looooved her accent!! But for reasons out of both our control it didn’t work out.
That was some time ago now, but the desire to meet an American women still buuuurns strong :-)
And it just so happens that I’m in the early stages of planning a trip to the US towards the end of this year 2008 :-)…(now you can see why i had that twinkle in my eye when i found this blog! lol)
I read some of you would like to travel to Australia on the hunt for an Aussie guy. We’ll, likewise… I’m heading your way, and ill most definitely be on the “hunt” ;-)
*AtlantaLOVE* I just may have to take you up on that tour guide offer ( a meat pie is an Aussies true mate :-) ) and if you can hook me up with one, I’m there!
Seriously – any aussie luv’n US girls wanting to get to know an aussie guy, flick me an email!
Im 34yo, don’t have a cool cooking job like the guys above lol, but do have a cool job working with (we’ll lets just say) disadvantaged people. But i do sometimes cook for them :-). I’m also semi self employed.
Top 3 passions would be, the ocean, paragliding, and my big bad ass bike lol, although im not the dirty biker type, more the rugged with a romantic streak ;-) Most weekends you’d either find me cruising the coastline on my bike, or jumping off a cliff and flying the coastline in my new paraglider.
One thing on my “to do list” in the states, is to hire a Harley and cruise the coastline for a day or two, anyone up for getting on the back and sharing the experience, I promise I’ll stop along the way for bottle of wine, if you bring the glasses :-)
Maybe we could do the myspace or faceybook type thing and trade a few storys and pics.
My email is jshep@westnet.com.au
Hit me up!

P.S Nice Blogg!
July 2nd, 2008 at 7:51 am
@ Aussie_Jason: Thanks for the comment!! :) And, wow, you’re really into American women, aren’t you? ;)
July 4th, 2008 at 1:28 am
You lot might be interested to hear that Australians are now officially the fattest people in the world, ha ha!
As for me, I’m off to live in Europe… I like the men better over there.
Interested ot hear the comments about the Australian accent and slang beingn appealing. To me, it just sounds low-class, and the slang is just comic rather than sexy. Sexy aussies, well t here are sexy people everywhere … but not particularly. X
July 5th, 2008 at 8:06 pm
Indeed, there are sexy people everywhere! :)
July 27th, 2008 at 9:53 pm
I’m an Australian woman living in San Francisco and married to an American man. I’ve had conversations about this with other Australian women living in the USA and USA women who were married to Australian men.
Every woman I met seems to agree on one thing, we wouldn’t want to be single in Australia and we don’t want to date Australian men ever again. We love Australia and will always call it home, but if you are an educated traveled woman, Aussie men won’t like you (except for about 2 weeks of sex, and no dinner or flowers) and you won’t like them.
Australian men are cute but don’t get involved with one. Even the self proclaimed feminist Australian men are sexist. They are very threatened by strong intelligent women, especially in the work place or in a relationship. I don’t know how many times I’ve been told by an Australian male that I’m “over educated” or “over qualified”. That is not a compliment, in Australia that is a passive aggressive insult.
Unfortunately Australian women are not any better, in fact they are so under the thumb that I’ve personally witnessed Australian women stick up for a guy who committed violence on a teenage volunteer at at a non profit. (Luckily the judge, a male, ruled in the victim’s favor.) It disgusted me so much that I quite this non profit project and land trust that I helped found. 2 years later I moved to San Francisco.
USA men have their moments too, they can be child like and naive about how things work in the outside world, but at least they open doors for women and acknowledge and consider their opinions more often than not, and they know how to make women feel special with flowers and candle lit dinners. I’m not saying USA men are the best, but they are definitely a cut above Australian men.
Yes, if I’m getting mugged or drowning or my car broke down and I don’t have AAA, I would want an Aussie male around as they stay calm, can think on their feet, great with their hands, and not afraid of trouble. But unfortunately that and their good looks are not enough to be relationship or management material. They need some serious therapy nationally and so do the women who defend them.
In the USA and white Europe, more women stick up for themselves and don’t take crap, this translates in how their men treat women, Australian women could do with a few pages from their book.

I know this post is a few years old, but after reading all the comments I just thought I’d stand up for the boys here, as I’m Australian.
While I’ve had some bad experiences myself with a few boys here, the huge majority of men i know not only treat me very respectfully but are wonderful boyfriends to my friends. I imagine any country has some sexism on varying scales and I know that be the case in some parts of rural Australia, however after reading some of the other posters i’m wondering whether they had this attitude towards men in general before they moved here or that they primarily went for one ‘type’.
My first long term boyfriend of 2 years could not have been more of gentleman and his friends were the same, and my current boyfriend is more respectful and considerate of me everyday; his closet friends treat their girlfriends the same.
Please don’t stereotype Aussie boys, most of them are lovely (and hot)

MOST Australian men are sexist, racist, non-communicators(do not be fooled by ‘I’me jist erh….reel laid bak kindof bloke….matey…’). They live for alcohol, prostitutes and their mates. Their mates will always come first before you. I have dated 3 aussie men and all of them were a waste of my time. If you marry one or get involved in one, you will be the maid, the cook, the head-job expert, named ‘the bloody wrench/bitch/slut/cunt’, and don’t even ask him for money because ‘Youra gold digger’, and if your that stupid to have kids with him consider yourself a single mum. I will NEVER date an aussie guy again.

Damn Mell…you get burned too many times?

Only by the aussie men darling……..
September 11th, 2008 at 11:09 pm
I just found this site, and what a chuckle it gave me, really interested to think that US women like the Aussie accent, my god I am sick of Aussie women, they dont have drive ambition or passion…..you guys sure know how to be proud about things.
Sad thing is I am probably the only fair skinned Aussie guy…so I am thinking my chances of meeting a spunky US gal are fairly limited.
As for the comments above about Aussie guys…well some are true and some are most certainly not…. I have to admit that most Aussie blokes love a good beer and footy and could be more respectful to women…but if you knew Aussie women you might understand (no I am not justifying that)…we arent big on style or fashion….(I am though….gotta stop buying those Italian shoes) and we are kind of handy in a scruff (fight).
You American women can be very loud, but at least you show an interest…you dont have to be treated like a princess every single day in order to be friendly…bloody Aussie women that are attractive are few and far between..so the ones that are ..well lets just say in the words of your aging rapper “cant touch this”.
American women are soooo sexy, they take pride in their appearance..and they LIKE to party..us Aussie blokes LOOOOVE to party…so its always a good match.
I am heading over in about 1.5 months, I hope what you say about the accent is true…I would like to meet an intelligent sexy US gal.
As for the bitter girls…I bet the Aussie guys just got tired of you being up yourself…you see as Aussie guys we dont care if we have a woman…we dont need to have one….thats what mates are for…you can always still go fishing or have a beer or a surf…so if you become a hassle…out the door you go.
I think thats why American women like Aussies so much…we dont play games…what you see is what you get!
September 11th, 2008 at 11:27 pm
PS,
What si the best state to for Aussie guys to meet US gals, I sadly am travelling to NY and catching up with an EX GF that lives in DC so…cant it wouldnt be nice to meet someone then…but after that I am thinking Vegas and San Fran…..are there better places?
September 11th, 2008 at 11:43 pm
Atlanta is always good. There are 10 females to every 1 guy in this city!!! Guess thats good for men…shitty for women. Especially professional ones. Anyway, NY, Vegas, and San Fran are all great!
September 11th, 2008 at 11:47 pm
I was thinking Ny, Vegas and San Fran …might be a little too touristy…travel plns to vegas are around your 11th october holiday so apparently it will be a bit crowded…what is there to do in Atlanta…sounds nice
September 11th, 2008 at 11:49 pm
PS, are their any singles events in these places…how would one find them?
September 27th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
Hey, i’m a UK lass here! i am a big fan of the aussie guys!! i am moving to auss next year to study in sydney at hillsong! cannot wait!! so i will be able to see for myself whether these guys are droolworthy or not! no.1 is there accent… it’s so hot! so when i go out there i hope to find myself a great, funny, caring hot guy! some friends who are there now say they some of them are very hot, but some dont really bother about there look and can be a bit smelly!! but im sure there are those who do take care of there look a bit more and smell good (lol) ;)
but any of you aussie guys out there… HELLOOO!!! i’ve been dreaming for the perfect aussie guy for a long time!
english guys are ok, but some can be really cocky and they can play games and mess girls around… (welll thats my experience) but i woudnlt really go there wit the english guys.. they are nothing speical..
but americans guys seem cool..haven’t really met any yet.. i think us English girls dig the aussie surfer type! shame the guys on here dig the american girls!
September 28th, 2008 at 5:43 am
Pommy girls (English Girls) cop a bit of a bashing (thats an Aussie saying…it does not mean we bash women), when Pom girls travel here they tend to let loose and Aussie women even though they drink as much, dont tend to get quite that loose, Pommy gals seem to never know when to stop and Aussie guys find gals that are always toasted very unactractive.
Guys here like Pommy girls becasue they tend to “put out” easier than the local women and they arent as high maintenance.. to take an Aussie girl to a pub for a night out, would result in you being run down by the girl for ages..but Pommy lasses think that is a perfect night out.
Pommy girls dont tend to gold dig as much as Aussie women.
That said, its a terrible stereotype, your going to find different women and different men in each country…it’s true that a lot of Aussie guys arent fashionable and they can be a bit rough around the edges…but I think thats what women from OS like…I know that might sound unnatractive…but women here go for the rugged type of guy.
Me myself…well I only have the accent, I am big and strong and rugged, but I prefer Itralian Shoes and a nice suit compared to thongs and beach shorts.
As for Hillsong, thats massive..we dont have many of those kind of churches here..I assume thats what the US is like…..church here is very old fashioned..but Hillsong is changing that massively…lots of Yuppies at Hillsong..you should meet a nice guy there.
Sadly I am not the surfer type, more a metrosexual..it really dpends what part of Australia you go to..for example.
Sydney (Cockroaches)- Full of tourists, trendy people and fast paced about 50% of guys dress nice and but there are a lot of tourists and a large ethnic population, a lot of Asian people too.
Sydney guys are faster than a roo with a cracker up his butt.
Brisbane (Cane Toaders)- Very laid back, in fact anywhere in Queensland is laid back, relaxed, its always sunny and therefore lots of surfer guys (skegs)…fashion is only found close to the city and your Queensland guy is more likely to watch footy than dine out.
Sinking a few tinnies at the local is a typical Queensland Past Time so is surfin a few breakers. (loads of beaches here) Brisbane guys love to sit back and watch the day go by, they hate the Gold Coast because of tourists and they dont let tourist know where all the best things are.
Brisbane boys love…Relaxing, Drinking, Footy (Rugby League), Fishing and Surfing
Melbourne (Da Italian Boys) – Very fashionable….its like a peice of Europe….fashion is extreemly important and you have to travel a long way out town before you loose any class. Melbourne guys tend to be more sophisticated and romantic, always eating out or doing something fun. Melbournites like a different type of Footy and love going out, the weather changes every 30 seconds, but this doesn’t stop people going out a lot…Melbournites love Fashion, Horse Racing, Footy (Aussie Rules), Soccer and making money and wine.
Canberra – (Suiters) are all business men,but usually all boring as hell…nothing to do but work in this town and most people stay in.
Perth – (Cashed up bogans) Not fashionable at all, but very loyal guys, a lot of tradesmen and miners here, plenty of money but style isnt what they spend their money on..more likely a big car and loads of beer…Perth guys like cars and naughty women.
Darwin – (Bush Boys) Picture Crocadile Dundee and you know the kind of guys from here, rugged but not real smart…fashion…not likely…romance…duck a punch if your lucky…if you pick the right guy from here he will protect you for life…pick the wrong one and you could be sorry.
Darwin Guys like getting away and drinking and working with their hands
Adelaide – (Time Warpers or Sandgropers) stuck back in time, rough around the edges but well educated…they like to party and drink as there is bugger else to do than sit in a pub and knock back a few ales.
Adelaide Guys like Footy (Aussie Rules), Working and Fishing.
Tasmania – (Two Headers)…Beautiful place…very quiet..very stunning…good food…freindly people but not real intelligent…they say Tasmanians have two heads because not many people live there because it is so cold..they are called two headers becasue the jokes go that they are inbred as their are a lot of weidos…great seafood, nice historic places, these guys dont even know how to “Play” a woman..it’s not in their nature to do so…old fashioned guys come from here…but most succesfull ones leave for the mainland.
This is just my opinion, I would love to hear the same report on US Gals..would be interesting to know what each place is like?
October 5th, 2008 at 12:52 pm
Really! assuie from Perth are very loyal man… My bf is from Perth it’s true his not into fashion it dosent matter at all to me… He loves me like no other man can ever be and he treat me like a princess…He rocks my world! His love has changed me…Has made me look upon the world and future expectations under a new light…
Today I`m a much happier person than I ever was before he came into my life…Well, anyway Risk is his business as he works at one of the mining company up north… It makes me smile and it gives me enough confident when I read about Aussie man living in Perth… Why? As of the moment we endure the pain of this temporary separation called distance…As far as I’m concern I have trust in him I have trust in my love, in his love, in our love… I know this love is bigger and stronger than the thousands of miles between us… Hopefully next year earlier or later this January 2009 we are finally living a life together… For now I live for the day when our physical separation will no longer be…
Every one is created unique and special but we have something in common… We all like to be love and loved in return… No one likes to be alone all his life… Hot guys, good looking man are all over the globe… But I should say I’m lucky to get a chance to be with an hot, fun, loving Aussie…
October 24th, 2008 at 8:16 am
Good to see american women like the aussie men! Not so good to hear aussie women putting down aussie men…Maybe you ladies are from the capitals where most of the blokes are metros and more interested in themselves. I myself, am a 25 year old from country victoria, maybe you should have looked for a boy from the sticks. ;)
Country boys are alot more friendly, chivilrous and understanding. And we’re also more laid back with that rugged edge(without being uneducated fools). Alot of us dont have cool jobs being from the country and all, but we’re nice genuine people none the less. Unfortunately for me im not going to meet any women from anywhere for months since im joining the military, but when i get leave im thinking of going to the states and meeting some nice gals. Anyways, if any of you ladies make it down under, make sure you pay the country boys a visit, it will be worth your while. Cheers!

Hi! I just stumbled onto this site, and I find it highly amusing! Seriously, can we just swap guys, here?! Haha…American girls, if you like our men, please take them!! I love American men – I’ve just met one recently, and he’s so nice! He actually listens to what you have to say, and is so sweet and charming. Unbelievable! Just when I thought all men in the world are exactly the same, because I’ve lived in Australia all my life!
Hehe…My ‘experiences’ of Australian men – neglect, bullying, racism, sexism – all resulting in me having no self-esteem at all, for a period of time! I’ve learned to live without men, and just have fun with my girlfriends…But then I meet an American man, and my faith is restored! Yay! So, please send more American men over here! And you can have the Australian men.
November 16th, 2008 at 8:30 pm
I just stumbled on this site. It’s neat and I’ve gotten a lot of insight on dating an Aussie man. I went to Australia twice. I’m a black female in Saint Louis, Missouri and winter is hitting us quite mild here; but I miss the beaches and the hot men in Australia. However, there are some ugly men here. The accent is great, but when you hear it a lot, it will get annoying. You know, like the American accent. I must that I do agree with what Whoppi Goldberg said. It’s not really colorful like it is here, in the U.S. Personally, I like Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane. They have a lot to offer and Australians tend to keep their best places to themselves. If an Australian want to go some place totally different from Australia, it would be Colorado. Everybody is nice there.
As far as men treating women wrong, I think it’s both ends of the stick. Like my grandmother said, “It’s always to sides of a story”. I believe her 100%. Aussie men are nice when they want to be. The same goes for the women. But, I’m spending a year down there. I would like to know how the people in Australia take to foreigners. It’s easier acceptance in America because almost everyone are descendants and doesn’t argue over that fact. Here, don’t say that. You will find yourself in a deep argument. I hear a whole lot about gang rapes. Well, I better stop right there. I don’t want to stop this happy going comments on here. It lifted my day.
November 24th, 2008 at 12:41 pm
i’m an aussie guy from adelaide who has just stumbled across this site and i appreciate the comments. As for the haters not sure why you do. There are alot of bad blokes out there but you gotta look for the rose amongst the thorns. Also perhaps the younger men have learnt from our dads mistakes. I like to think so anyway. Our accent more like that guy from coyote ugly less like steve irwin. Adelaide true not much to get up to but thats the aussie way being lazy on a nice sandy beach. Also aussies appreciate anyone as we like to pride our country on its multiculturalism. Adelaide is also a bit more like england just not london. As for me i’m quite young and a uni student but i love my girlfriend so sorry about that.
November 24th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
RE: India
The people in Australia are quite welcoming to everyone. If there is one bit of advice i can give to you to enjoy your time here is that: Try and embrace the local culture, Aussies like foreigners but we dont like people who come here and keep themselves because they are different. People will adopt you as an aussie if you keep an open mind and try and understand our way of living, of course that doesnt mean you have to give up being who you are. As for the gang rapes, they we’re years ago in Sydney by middle eastern gangs who hate Australians. The exact same type of people that terrorised Australians which sparked the riots at cronulla. We’re the nicest people you will ever meet as long as we dont have sand kicked in our face. So enjoy your time here and if you befriend a few nice aussies you may get to see some beautiful things that you would not even know exist in Australia.
November 26th, 2008 at 8:35 am
Hey, well i’m moving to sydney next year, so are the guys nice there? also my cousins live in brisbane, i heard that it’s more aussie-like there than sydney..is that true? so tell me..do aussie guys dig english girls at all?…or is it just americans?
November 26th, 2008 at 8:37 am
Aussie guys love english birds, we like the accent. Sydney is full of immigrants so probably not the best place to get the genuine aussie experience.
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:26 pm
Hey, the phone-throwing comment refers to Russell Crowe and he’s a KIWI, in point of fact. But he’ll do. ;)
December 20th, 2008 at 1:18 am
I’m so glad i stumbled upon this thread. I’m a New York gal who fell hard for a hottie aussie a year ago. He’s gorgeous, intelligent and extremely passionate in bed. I feel a strong connection with him on so many levels but he’s so hard to read. His fellow Aussie friend once said “Oh, we Aussies just don’t date.” Is this true? What does he mean by that?
December 21st, 2008 at 1:22 am
Im sorry, I find Australian men rude and downright fake! Is in their nature to say what you want hear. They hate to upset people so act genuinely friendly. The country ones are the worst. I also think most of them arent that good looking they either have huge crooked noses or overlapping teeth
December 21st, 2008 at 1:24 am
also. the baldness is dreadful x
December 23rd, 2008 at 4:10 pm
Oh Aussie boys are fabulous. I met one who I cannot get out of my mind in the summer. Him and all his friends were so charming and….GORGEOUS. I could listen to him talk all day long and often imitated his voice haha (not well he said). We even spent a week in Mexico before he went back home just the two of us. He is back in Australia and I am in Canada but that doesn’t mean a girl can’t dream about what COULD happen :)
December 29th, 2008 at 1:54 am
I would have to say that the late Heath Ledger was hot! Although I ma married to an Australian man. During my marriage he has been verbally abusive to me, puts me down, and his mum watch out. She has come to visit me for months at a time, was very rude to me, very controlling, and very mean to me. Actually non of his family is nice to me. His cousin accused me, of talking behinde her mum’s back to the mum in law. Which is totally untrue. The mum in law is just a wench. She has told me she wants to take my children away from me some day, move them to Australia. She is very vicious. Also all of his friends have treating me badly as well. So in genral, besides the late heath ledger I think all australians suck Sorry
December 29th, 2008 at 2:46 am
Ouch! Im sorry to hear that you have to put up with that terrible family. I can assure you we’re not all like that, maybe you just picked a really shitty family to marry into. All of my friends and family would never treat a person like that, we’re respectful and classy people. I can only hope you find happiness Heddy!
PS: Is he from NSW? Coz theyre all wankers, lol!

I’m going to live in Adelaide in July this year, moving from England!!! I love it there and the women are cracking!!! I coached Football (soccer) in America last year for 6 months around Atlanta and Washington D.C. As soon as I talked to the U.S. girls they were all over me like a cheap suit, if you can’t get laid in the states then there is something wrong!!! They are however very attractive and I still keep in touch with a couple of girls…
In Adelaide I found the girls amazing, my accent and style got me noticed a lot more that the locals, met some fit girls that were nice, liked sport and could hold a decent conversation…But I don’t care where they come from at the end of the day!!!
January 12th, 2009 at 6:28 am
I have to say, I do like Englishmen the best – they have the best sense of humour in the world! They always make me laugh!
January 26th, 2009 at 1:34 am
The comments here are all very interesting – the ladies seem to fall into either romantic/infatuated or irrational haters (mostly Aussie!!). Crooked noses? Overlapping teeth? Baldness? Jeez, Come On! None of those things are peculiarly Australian, they pop up anywhere in the world from time to time, as do the awful personalities referred to by the haters above.
The looks and personalities of Aussie men and women are probably about as varied as any other population, not universally hot or ugly, about the same ratio of charming and charmless as anywhere else.
If you like the Aussie accent, that’s great, on our side, we tend to find non-Australian accents charming, but otherwise, on the whole, we’re just another human population, the good the bad and the ugly (also my favourite Western.)
Maybe both the romantics and the haters here are saying more about themselves than they are about Australian men????
Good luck to you all – I hope you all find happiness and love (even the haters!)no matter who it’s with – but please try to be a little fairminded, huh?
January 26th, 2009 at 6:16 am
I think some aussie guys are hot but they are falsely advertised all the time. I can also say the same for guys from America and other countries. Unfortunately, girls get sucked in and find out that everything is not what it seems. Almost like getting a shitty present on X-mas. It’s russian roulette really. You bound to get a nice guy or a insensitive jerk. As for me, I’m a romantic cynic with a moderate antipathy for the male gender. So I don’t get suckered in by the hype, Aussie or otherwise.
January 26th, 2009 at 12:47 pm
Hey i’m an english lass!! Just want to ask you AUSSIE guys….. what do you think of us english girls? i’m moving to australia next year to study… i’ve always wanted an aussie guy ;)
February 2nd, 2009 at 2:31 pm
Well Steve you are right, one must not stereotype a certain race, colour or country due a relationship gone sour.It’s all psychological on who we attract in one’s life and obviously my past relationships with Aussie men comes as a shocking reflection of who I was in a past life. My apologie to all good Aussie men out there.
February 7th, 2009 at 8:58 pm
Mell,
I hope things are gettng better for you.
I think though the whole concept of nationalism is dubious. Aussie men are not all like Heath Ledger or Hugh Jackman, but are all English men like Hugh Grant or Jude Law? Are all Amercian men like Brad Pitt, or Canadian men all like Keanu Reeves? Is any entire nationality all bad either?
A New Zealander above, repeated the tired old line “Australia sucks” – actually national stereotyping sucks. We’re all individuals and any another way of seeing each other is just an
illusion.
I’ve only met a few Americans down here (the English are here in huge numbers both as tourists and residents). There’s one young woman from Atalanta I know here who took out Australian citizenship a year or so ago, so she must like the place. In the time of known her she’s had a couple of aussie boyfriends and appears very happy. She is very charming, quite lovely, is that just her? Or Atalanta?
February 9th, 2009 at 3:20 am
Definately Droolworthy… I’ve been dating my own lover from down under for over a year now (gotta love college) and hes AMAZING! He’s sweet, he’s sexy, and so much more (which is terribly cliche but he’s an absolutely fantastic person). Its always fun to discover new things that we say or do differently based upon our culture (despite it actually being quite similar).
March 1st, 2009 at 3:55 pm
Hello everyone!
I too, stumbled across this blogsite, and have to tell you that I’m leaving my country (Canada) to be with an Aussie in Sydney that I’m extremely in love with! It’s a huge leap, and a huge change…I wonder: will I stick out like a sore thumb? Sydney is pretty international, so I’m hoping I make it okay.
I really hope her parents like me ^^
March 3rd, 2009 at 8:48 am
ALEX O’LOUGHLIN!(Moonlight, Oyster Farmer) That Aussie man is sex on legs and I can’t get enough of him! It should be a crime to look that hot! So if even half the Aussie men are like him, I would definetly move from Portugal to Austalia! No questions asked!
March 5th, 2009 at 9:56 pm
@ Milou: I second that. Him and Ryan Kwanten (Summerland, HBO’s True Blood) are two totally hot Aussies. Too bad I can’t find any nice Aussie guys. Oh well, I can always watch them on T.V.
March 8th, 2009 at 3:26 pm
hey jen here from manila..i met an aussie guy from perth online and i must say he is one of the nicest and humorous person ive known…he just makes me feel happy and loved despite of our million miles distance from each other.. i cant wait to meet him personally and place kisses all over his body as he is so hmmm hot sexy and funny..
love the aussie…
March 17th, 2009 at 12:22 am

FUCK NEW ZEALAND
March 17th, 2009 at 12:26 am
OH i almost forgot!! and latin chicks OMGGGGGGG!!!!
March 19th, 2009 at 5:40 pm
OMG i love australian men! i am an american girl living in los angeles. several times i have gone out and met aussies in the bars!! they are seriously the FRIENDLIEST most laid back and funniest people ever. They make you feel like you have known them FOREVER! I don't know if this is just because they are on vacation and happy to be in sunny california lol or if they are all just naturally talkative and happy, but i am sooo drawn to their charisma and charm! and not to mention they are freakin' HOT! and can't forget the brownie points for that sexy accent! I just took one home with me the other night (hence me googling “australian men” right now lol, because i was in SUCH awe and wonder of his complete amazingness!!) he's long gone by now, but that will be a night i will never forget. I mean i dont know if he really is that good to be true or if he was saying what i wanted to hear but he was soo believable. usually i can tell when someone is bs-ing me. but with him, man oh man, i was mesmermized. i actually want to move to australia now! hahaha so my response to this blog is a DEFINITE DROOLWORTHY!!! :)
May 5th, 2009 at 11:40 am
I’m from miami and I have to say the australian men I have seen have been breath taking. Both in miami and key west. But I agree with the comments above we can’t say all australian men are hot. All countries have good looking or unattractive people.
May 10th, 2009 at 7:30 pm
soooo droolworthy!! I love their attitude
I never met one in person but I hope to someday soon :)
May 13th, 2009 at 4:26 pm
I’m an Australian living in Sweden and before that, the US (San Francisco). On the topic of men, it is absolutely impossible to generalise especially in places where there is huge ethnic diversity like Australia and US. Now that I have spent about 18 months in Sweden and experienced complete social exclusion in a place that is somewhat genetically and culturally “homogeneous” I will never complain about people (especially men for that matter) from Australia and US.
At least Australian men have a sense of humor, expressive and witty personality and can communicate through talking and not just sex. Swedish men are probably very nice and caring but since they are a bunch of introverted types, it’s impossible to really get to know them (unless you are were born and/or raised in Sweden with Swedish values knowing how they think) to figure this out. They seem to be terrified of anyone foriegn, even me, an Aussie girl.
It must be all relative – be with a guy who 1) doesn’t talk when sober 2) only talks when drunk 3) spends 6 months of year outside laying in the sun to make up for the lack of sunlight during the dark winter 4) is never spontaneous, 5) has to plan outings 6 months in advance (even coffee dates), 6) lacks competitive spirit as everyone must be equal and win alike 7) books a time for sex 8) has grown up in a society full of feminists ie. father was completely arsed whipped by a dominating crazy Swedish wife, and 9) only ever takes vacation to places liek Mallorca and Thailand to sit in the sun (again).
So, I guess the other extreme is an Australian or American man? At least Austalian actually do stuff when sitting or spending time in the sun e.g. like watching or playing sport! Does anyone have a suggestion of where the perfect man lives in this world and who can fit someplace in the middle of these two very poles apart?
May 15th, 2009 at 3:41 am
I’m English and living in Sydney (been here 1 year) and I have to say I’m growing increasingly tired of the Aussie men and the culture here. The women on the whole are intelligent and quite beatiful, but Aussie men seem to treat them like second class citizens. It’s like the UK 20 years ago! The daily sexism and media attitude towards women are making me increasingly grateful for and proud of my English fiancee.
Aussie men definitely care more about their mates and their freedom than their women. They’re sexist and childish and if you read some of the comments made lately regarding the group rape/ sex incident (a group of football players and a teenage girl) then you start to realise that many of the guys here still think an attractive drunk girl is ‘asking for it’.
In my opinion, the Aussie girls should go abroad if they want anything more than a one-night stand. However… I also believe that to some extent men are men wherever you go and really it’s down to us girls to hold out for what we want in a guy. If women stop tolerating this loutish, boyish behaviour, they will eventually have to grow up and become the men we need them to be.
May 17th, 2009 at 6:12 pm
I have to reply to a couple of (IMO) biased comments from Jo Jo.
First your suggestion that the behaviour of certain Rugby players expresses the mood of the country or of Aussie men is an outrage, the nation is scandalised by that crime you refer to. It is not acceptable to anyone, and Rugby culture is a peculiar sub-culture of its own, not the mentality of the whole people of the country.
Your willingness to generalise in such a negative, hostile way will not bring you to the truth of anything. One could pluck a crime from any country, or ethnicity, and use it to damn a whole people, but its not a legitmate mode of thought or argument. In fact it’s dangerous.
As for your talk of “like the UK 20 years ago,” British social commentators themselves talk about the “Laddish culture” getting worse, not better. Your “observation” here seems to be more an expression of nationalistic chauvinism than objective comment.
Are English men all “Lager Louts” and “Soccer Hooligans?” I’ve known enough English people to know how illegitimate such generalisations are, though heaven knows there are people who make them.
No doubt your English fiance is a nice fellow, and no doubt you will return with him to Old Blighty one day, your prejudices as rigidly in place when you leave, as they were the day you arrived.
Until we all grow up and treat each other, and think of each other as INDIVIDUALS, all the evils of nationalism, racism and sexism will be with us forever. Your hostile and unfair generalisations about all the men of Australia are dehumanising to ordinary, decent men.

Hi Steve,
First of all – take a deep breath and calm down. Then re-read my post.
What you’ll see is that first of all, I was not referring to the recent behaviour of rugby players as indicative of Australian men in general (the footballers in the UK are almost as bad as your rugby players here), but the appaling comments made online by hundreds of Australian men after the event – I suggest you have a search around on the internet to have a look yourself and I’m sure you’ll agree with me that there is a serious issue with how the young guys here view women.
I also mentioned the attitude of Aussie guys generally towards the women here – are you seriously suggesting that Australian men aren’t chauvanistic on the whole? I have yet to meet an Aussie guy that is genuinely respectful of women and views them as equals. Australian men are known for their sexism. I’m not saying the Aussie guys aren’t nice, just that I don’t like their attitude towards the women.
The same attitude is present in the media where almost every single female on the TV has to be beautiful and good at her job, but the male presenters just have to be good at their job. This is the case to some extent in the UK but I think it’s extreme here.
One great example of why Oz reminds me of the UK 20 years ago is… Women have only just received paid maternity leave!! I was gobsmacked when I heard that on the news. Women in the UK have been entitled to have children and keep their jobs for many years now. Fathers have also been entitled to Paternity leave for some time now. Another reason is that there has been a huge rise in political correctness in the UK over the last few decades so whilst people may be sexist or racist deep down you generally won’t find them expressing those opinions in polite company.
Though it annoys me to see it, these attitudes only affect me indirectly, and honestly – Aussie women are used to it so I don’t think it bothers them half as much as it bothers me. We’ll probably stay here in the long-term but regardless of where we live, if I have sons, you can bet I’ll be teaching them to respect women!
August 25th, 2009 at 9:58 pm
Well Im a Black-American woman who has had the experience of talking to A couple of Aussie guys. The first one I met is from Brisbane, he is a mean son 0f a bitch!! But can be very nice when he want to be. Now my darling from Melbourne, he is a sweetheart, I mean he’s a lush but I just love him to death! Im saving up so I can go see him sometime this year. We are gonna have so much fun. And the good thing is, even if we roll around in the hay, we will still be friends!! HA HA!!! GO ASHES!!!
September 26th, 2009 at 4:06 am
Hi, Jo Jo,
I totally agree with you about Australian men. They really don’t care about women at all. Did you know that there was an Australian footballer who actually wanted to have his CHILD INDUCED, so that he wouldn’t miss the Grand Final? Australian men always put football, and other sports and their ‘mates’ before women…We’re just considered nuisances here, intruding on their little ‘boys club’ at the football and the pub. Most of us just choose to stay single!
September 27th, 2009 at 7:41 am
Yeah Eve, fair comment – most Australians don’t marry, hardly anyone in the country is married actually, and inducing birth to avoid missing the grand final is VERY common.
The whole country is actually just a giant football club and what appears to be the aberrant behaviour of a couple of footy players is really typical behaviour of most of the Australian male population.
September 27th, 2009 at 8:50 am
What a crock of pure garbage – now lets set the record striaght right here – Happen to be an Aussie and I have dated a USA girl so i think I can speak with some authority and experience…
Steve you are full of garbage and Eve how pathetic….just goes to show really doesn’t it…..you see ameracan woman are so LOOSE – we come from an ethical background, not where PORN and msuic clips half showing womens genetalia are common place.
You see there is one issue that US women have with Aussie guys…..and that is that we just dont give a damn about the “games” you play – you see an Amercan girl who thinks she is hot (and quite often NOT) thinks it is her GOD GIVEN right to get exactly whatever her heart desires…..but you see that works in the USA becasue thats how your whole culture works – Pretty girl…..gets the rich jock or the rich man….but you see there is a differnce here…we arent as material..we dont care so much about getting ahead or if we are marrying a doctor or some model….there is more to do here….thast right we are passionate about other things….you see a poor smuck dumped in the USA by some pretty lass will never get over it, where here we can ..go to the beach…havea drink with mates, watch some sport, go fishing, camping surfing or do something else.
Your media makes you who you are..and your PROBLEM is that you think the world owes you something…..well it doesnt and many a USA girl has comea cropper thinking they can use their looks and tools of the trade they learnt at home oevr here…it just doesnt cut it….you see the best ass, the best bod…it doesn’t mean anyhting to us..what we care about is mateship…hence why we love sports so much…a bunch of mates doing something together…AWAY from women….its kinda nice!
I dont agree with inducing childbirth for a game…but nor do I beleive in having to put up with crap just becasue a girl is good looking..and somehow I dont think I am alone…..perhaps if you girls cleaned up your morals a tad we might like you more!
September 30th, 2009 at 9:23 am
Hey-as my name suggests-Irish chick here-hopefully my accent won’t put anyone to sleep….
My boyfriend is Aussie, I have lived there for a year and have some really good Aussie friends.
He is hot, hot, hot!! A complete gentleman and all round good guy! When I met him I wasn’t too sure what to expect as I had met some very ‘ist’ guys whilst in Oz-sexist, racist… But was I in for a treat! He is an amazing guy and whips the ass of any Irish guys I have had any experiences with! Did I mention the body???
To be honest he is a bit traditional in how he treats me-but there is a really big upside to that-opens doors, pays for dinner, beautiful manners, generally the princess treatment….
Need I say more?
October 16th, 2009 at 9:12 pm
A Black Canadian female here. I have a couple of Aussie friends (whom I love to bits) and will be heading off to Australia in a couple of weeks to join them and spend a year or so. I’m pretty neutral about the droolworthy status of Australian men, but I will say that they are some of the friendliest and down to earth people I’ve ever met.
As for a poster’s comments about Swedish men, they remind me of Icelandic men. They could be so cold and disinterested when sober, but after a few drinks they couldn’t stop talking nor could they keep their hands to themselves.
Anyhoo, national stereotypes and characteristics aside, at the end of the day, you just have to deal with people on an individual level.
October 17th, 2009 at 7:15 pm
Hi everyone, i’m a 27 Caucasian Aussie Male and just wanted to say i really love Black African American women. I’m Taking a trip to the US early next year and can’t wait.
Also do many American women move to Australia? i’ve never really encountered any here.
Cheers
October 18th, 2009 at 7:03 am
Well Im an average aussie bloke..
im well known around.. ish..
To be honest being a hetrosexual kinda guy i dont really have an opion as to wether we are drool worthy or not. However i do believe that we are up there with the rest. The reason most woman think we are so good is that we are very focused on our bodies. Most of us have a home gym or a gym membership that we actually use.. My girlfriend is a British girl and she thinks that we are hot because its hot here and we literally own no clothes. I live in a wifey, boardies and thongs. Boxer boy! Breifs are constricting and stupid!!
Anyway back to the point. Aussies are alright, we work hard and we get what we deserve.
Just no that there are alot of fat idiots that destroy our near perfect image.
Still Love being all aussie man.
The girlfriend loves it to =)
November 6th, 2009 at 3:57 pm
Hey all
I’m an australian man 24 from Sydney and I’ve had a few girls in my short life span and i’ve noticed a few things about the differences between American and Australian men and our women.
The most importantly is that Australia women love to be able to tred all over there men and treat them like shit and get away with it as where Aussie men wont stand for it and therefore treat that woman accordingly.
As where American men will let women tred all over them like a door mat and let them treat them like shit and Australian women love this and therefore there a perfect match. With me if you want respect then you damn well show some and Australian women haven’t the faintest idea what the word even means as there a perfect match for american men. the american men lets her walk all over him and treat him like shit and gets the occasional flower and the american man get all the sex he wants.
Theres a rule with us aussie blokes sex isn’t our main priority in life our actual real main priority is a hot meal LOL I know that sounds corny but it is and australian women can’t cook for shit so I’m stuck with friggin KFC. Our second most important thing is entertainment and no i dont mean sexual entertainment I mean the real kind like sport or a time out with our mates and all and the third thing is sex as with the American male its all sex they’ll treat you like a princess providing you let them stuff you like a dead chicken.
I speak to women from all over the world and they all tell me they can’t stand there men because all they want is sex as where aussie men arn’t all for sex and the australian women don’t seem to like this so where fucked both ways we go.
Generally all I want is a woman thats fair but the chances of finding one is Australia is the same chances that santa claus created jesus.
Cheers
November 11th, 2009 at 6:55 am
I have recently started dating an aussie guy.We work together.He is a tall,handsome and sharp guy.I am an indian girl however most people I meet mistake me to be a greek,spanish,mexican……I also make an effort to dress well.My guy is so much into me,he sends sms’s while at work,calls me often,wants to go out all the time,….he drives all the way to drop me home real late at night even if I ask him to drop me back att 2:30am in the morning after spending time at his place
We are getting emotionally closer each passing day,… I told him we may not be together forever and he was really upset.
He wants me to focus on just 2 things – my career and him,I think I really love him a lot,he is a perfect gentleman and the perfect man for me!
Hope it stays like this forever!!
November 11th, 2009 at 12:16 pm
funny that
australian women get upset if you ring them often or sms them at work
they consider it invading there sersonal space.
i also find it fascinating they expect us to open the doors and everything for them yet they have equal rights in Australia.
therefore there our equal so we dont have to open the door for them or give them our seat or anything like that and thats what they wanted now they got it they dont like it.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:55 am
i have some white aussie female frds who actually try calling their guys during lunch or evenings when all are able to do is leave voicemails for their guys!
a frequent comment – my guy doesn’t bother much about me maybe he is just not into me ;-)
November 12th, 2009 at 4:24 am
It gets kind of old after a while
they wanted equal rights and all and now they got them they can’t handle it and try to reverse it back on us
November 12th, 2009 at 2:50 pm
Peter: your friggin hilarious!! hhahahah
I’m moving to Perth, in a year, for school. My bf is an australian and he’s working on the mines up north…he complains about the women over there too…all gold diggers, lazy and no good head on their shoulders…this is my first experience with an aussie man….so far i prefer it to any other guys ive been with…maybe it’s the laidback attitude….i don’t know but i’m sure everyone complains about about the opposite sex in their country…
November 12th, 2009 at 4:33 pm
Australian women are extremely selfish as long as they get what they want. They are definitely gold diggers i’ve seen good looking young (25) australian women with 60 year old men because they have money. Is that gold digging or what, although I doubt he minds giving her his money cause he gets his swiveled up balls used whenever he likes. I don’t know how other countries treat there opposite sex I know that American men will let women walk all over them like a door mat as long as you give out to them and Australia women will give out as much as you like as long as you let them walk all over you like a door mat so there a good match. In which doesn’t really worry me cause i’m not planning on getting with an Australian woman because who knows what else ya getting these days.
November 13th, 2009 at 8:24 pm
omg Aussie boy is sorda right about how SOME of us American chicks are!! But I am not like that..I been with a Aussie bloke for a year and a half now and what I love about him is the fact that he is very genuine and doesn’t care about all the porn and all the filth thats in america with the loose women….My man loves to surf and skate board(35 and still skates haha) but hes a down to earth fun guys with a wicked sense of humor and a nice accent lol…but when I first met him I did not mention his accent I simply got to know him as a person not as a different culture or hott accent or something like that….so advice for american chicks…..don’t fall for them for there hot accents cause that will get u no were…
November 13th, 2009 at 10:42 pm
aussie_boy is generally right but something tells me his still a virgin cause american women drill like a jack hammer which is generally quite exciting considering there squeal when there doing it and don’t make the general jackhammer noise. they also try to walk over men like australian women do and got dumped and then cry and want revenge and can only muster riding your best friend only for my best friend to get a CONGRATULATIONS DO IT AGAIN. I dont know if our accent is hot i have no clue i can’t really notice it but i been told that if an aussie goes to america his pretty well treated like a rock star just because of his accent.
However I am probably not the best person to ask considering im 24 and never really been in love or anything like that just go on a lot of dates and generally its over without a week. being 24 im gonna have to get my act together sooner or later i guess.
November 18th, 2009 at 6:05 pm
Hi everyone. II know this is really old, but I just had to comment. I’m a pale, blond Canadian of Swedish descent.
I don’t know much about Australian guys, but I have partied with a few. :) That was fun.
I do, however, know about Swedish men and culture.
It’s definitely a little different, but not how you describe! It’s a very reserved culture, and Scandinavians in general can be difficult to get to know. However, if you are open they will get more comfortable and you can become life long friends! I was very much raised in this culture, so it’s probably easier to relate.
In my experience, Aussie men and the Australian culture are more spontaneous and laid-back, so I would imagine that Sweden would be a bit of a culture shock! Of course, many of the Australians I know were on vacation. A good friend of mine is now married to an Aussie in Darwin. They are very happy and have two kids together!
November 18th, 2009 at 11:41 pm
I met a swedish man he was a total prick.
however swedish women arn’t to be
December 6th, 2009 at 8:08 am
I’m a 26 year old Australian guy, planning my trip to the USA to do route 66 in a years time. I stumbled upon this and had to have a looksie haha. Wow, quite a lot of posative feed back.
I’ve done a little travelling around Europe and met a few American women, some of which i keep in contact with.
I feel i should put in my 2 bob and say that in my experiance American woman are beautiful :) A majourity of the blokes i met were very friendly too. With the exception of one guy who asked my for an arm wrestle in Rome, he lost and made a big deal out of it resulting in a bit of a scrap :) But thats nor here nor there haha
Good looking women too might i add :P
Cya next year!
December 6th, 2009 at 10:44 am
thats all that matters then mate
December 30th, 2009 at 3:18 am
I’m an Aussie Girl. I found this site via Google.
I personally think That Aussie and American Guys tie when it comes to who is hotter. I prefer the younger guys (I’m 17 lol a tad young I suppose but your blog is quite intrigueing) and at the moment my faves would be Short Stack (Hottest guys alive if you ask me) and Alex Evans. =)
December 30th, 2009 at 8:30 am
you forgot to mention
aussie men are laid back and generally down to earth as where the american men are extremely cocky up themselves and usually have an IQ lower then me which i really can’t stand.
January 19th, 2010 at 2:30 am
I met an Australian man for the 1st time ever this weekend at a club in LA. I swear to you he was the most GORGEOUS life form I’ve ever met. For one, he was an excellent dancer, he was very social and knew how to party. Seems like what I’ve been hearing. He literally knocked me off my feet, because he is NOTHING like these American Men American men are lazy, don’t like to dance, are dependent on women and their parents to live, and don’t know the meaning of chivalry. They are far too inconsiderate and expect things to be handed to them. Australian men on the other hand seem to be a lot of fun, so what if they like beer, hanging with their mates, and surfing? That’s hot!! At least they have something going for them, and depend on women to make “fun” happen. Honestly I wouldn’t mind cooking and cleaning for an Aussie who really cared about me! That’s just showing affection and taking care of your man!!
If you don’t take care of your man, of course he’s going to walk out on you and spend more time with his friends. I would move to Australia for this guy, hands down.
January 19th, 2010 at 2:35 am
i can’t dance all to well but i sure know how to party :)
January 28th, 2010 at 1:23 pm
Hey Everyone!
ive just spent about an hour reading through this blog, and its been really really interesting! quite a few opinions out there, about how droolworthy or not Aussie guys are compared to Americans and others… :D
I must say, the boys adding to the thread, have pretty strong arguments, and tend to be more rational than the girls… probably because it is known that (we) girls tend to tie emotions into pretty much anything, and most of the posts are related to personal incidents… then again, one cant generalise this way… even though it is easier to assume or predict a pattern, its just not fair. there are lazy, smelly, racist, sexist, bullying and so forth men everywhere in the world, it is not just a typical Aussie thing.
My background is very mixed… i am quarter swiss- quarter italian, and half egyptian, lived in switzerland, and am currently living in vienna, austria. im only 23, but thanks to having been schooled in an international school, ive met people from over 80 nationalities. ive dated a french boy, an american, a brazilian, two austrians, and lastly, a danish guy… ive heard pros and cons for all those nationalities, and the advice i have for anyone, is, keep people’s advice in mind, but more importantly, be open and form your own opinion about people. i heard that brasilians are players, french are snooty, austrians are not loyal, and danish are cold… maybe i was just lucky, but the guys i knew were just not like that, and even though they all had their good and bad sides, it was vital for me to form my own opinion and experience.
Everyone is different, and one cant just generalise, thats the easy way out :)
Im travelling to australia in march for three weeks, to Perth and Sydney, and im extremely excited about meeting Aussies, and get to know this (from what i hear) amazing country!!!
if anyone has tips for me on where to go, etc, please let me know!
cheers!!!
January 28th, 2010 at 6:24 pm
once you get an aussie you wont go back to the others sweetheart.
most foreign women tell me they loe aussie men because where layed back, can party and are genunely manly aparently. As foreign men arnt like that
tips if ya not an australian woman you wont have a hard time finding a guy to date as us aussie guys are steering clear of our selfish women.
January 28th, 2010 at 7:03 pm
I think what im looking for right now, is something more manly or rugged á la hugh jackman… not that i dont like european guys, i prefer them to americans, but i think i need a change from the polished metrosexuals :)
looking forward to the manly genuine Aussies :)
January 29th, 2010 at 1:31 am
the good thing about being australia is you can go down the street in a singlet and pair of shorts and noone gives a flying forn about it
in europe you’d probably get arrested for indecent exposure or soemthing
January 29th, 2010 at 10:48 am
Wow, this was an informative site. I am a Curvy Brown American women of color with many Aussie women friends . They laugh how we love the Aussie boys as they perfer other guys . I guess one likes the opposite . American guys really can be bores. It’s all about how u look . They love if a women looks like she just stepped off a porn movie. I just don’t get that. Or of the girl is whiny they want to take care if them . Or they want women who act like thier moms so they can b the little boy again. I think the Aussie guy is for me! My GF s and I love manly men . In NYC there r so many Gay guys love them but come on. This is a working city Guys here. R stressed and uptight plus there so many women it’s v hard to meet men. We want more outdoorsy types who have fun happy and kind to women just treat us like a lady but know how to have fun!! Laugh snd love life. I am going to a Aussie Footy party here I can’t wait to meet some guys !! Any advice ?
January 29th, 2010 at 9:08 pm
just be yourself and you’ll be fine
and dont dress like its your wedding day
February 3rd, 2010 at 2:31 pm
australian men are to die for. their cute little accents are to die for. If an australian guy (obviously somewhat good looking and not fat) were to approach me and ask me to do anything i would most probably. CCHARMING ACCENTS HOTT GUYS
February 3rd, 2010 at 7:45 pm
so just because an aussie guy might have a beer gut you wouldn’t be interested
sweatheart with that attitude you dont deserve anyone
February 10th, 2010 at 7:41 am
I love a beer gut, makes them all cuddly
hehe
February 10th, 2010 at 4:05 pm
find quite a few aussies with them
February 11th, 2010 at 2:40 am
Arielle – Gday!
This Aussie guy wants your email address! :-) I love your name, not to mention an American accent!! YUM!

:-)
February 11th, 2010 at 6:03 am
Jason remember theres only about fuckin 50 american accents wait till you hear hers first aye or you might be in for a shock
February 12th, 2010 at 7:42 am
hmm some of the comments on here have made me want to go to the U.S for a look. It would have to be somewhere outta the city tho, being in sydney is stressful enough for me, i could not handle NY LOL
February 16th, 2010 at 4:30 am
I’m Canadian!!!! hahahahaaa…eh?
February 16th, 2010 at 7:08 pm
cnaadians sound the same as americans but arnt as up tight and generally give out more
LOL sorry
February 17th, 2010 at 12:24 am
hahahaa no they don’t sound the same!! i work with a bunch of americans, and they don’t at all…well ya I’m french canadian, so i guess the french do have something to do with giving out more…and canadian’s are generally more liberal…so i guess if that bothers you….sucks to be u
February 17th, 2010 at 2:21 pm
I am a liberal
ahhh french canadians don’t sound the same the english canadians do though
and why would i dislike a girl that gives out exactly?
you got me really curious
February 18th, 2010 at 12:02 am
I stumbled across this site when looking up American women’s attitudes towards Australian men. There’s nothing like getting it straight from the horses’s mouth good and bad (unless it’s his vomit, of course).
I need to correct a few perceptions here, and encourage the accurate ones:
1. We don’t have an accent (though when I was in Canada, I was mistaken for being English).
2. The way we speak is superior to that of a Kiwi (they never could pronounce ‘fish and chips’ corrrectly – if you have a kiwi friend ask him to use that expression).
3. Austrlians are better at cricket than Kiwi’s.
4. Not all aussies sound the same. You get the ones that sound like they have a lot of trouble pronouncing the word ‘Right’ as ‘Right’ and it comes out sounding more like ‘Royt’ – they tend to be less educated. We are all however, with few exceptions a bonza bunch of blokes.
5. Some Australian men may well be only after sex (probably the less good-looking ones, as they tend not to get much anyway I suspect), many of us are not as shallow as that though, and enjoy the company of a charming sophisticated lady who knows how to hold a good conversation and is well-versed in world affairs – well at least one that I know of is).
February 18th, 2010 at 12:25 am
I don’t know you said “sorry” as if it was some sort of insult. that being said, if you think something is insulting you obviously don’t approve….oui ou non?
February 18th, 2010 at 1:44 am

I am going to a Aussie Footy party here I can’t wait to meet some guys !! Any advice ?
—————————————————————————————
Well, it may sound strange coming from an Aussie, but I HATE football. And, I don’t drink (hence the absence of the beer gut). My advice, be on your guard – there will be some guys who only want sex with you, and will try to make you think they are interested in you for more than that.
February 18th, 2010 at 6:50 am
i apologised because i know hwo saying the canadians sound american to me would insult you but i didnt mean to insult which is why i apologised
February 18th, 2010 at 7:27 am
@Just another Aussie male
yer mate
i’d rather sit down to a few beers and a feed then worry about sex
I think most aussie men would prefer a woman that makes him happy and that he can respect and is a fridget then a woman who gives out 10 times a day and keeps the hood all nice and shiny
Most Australian women dont realise that you need to respect yourself before you can expect others to respect you.
March 1st, 2010 at 9:25 pm
Easily, the article is really the sweetest on this notable matter. I agree together with your conclusions and tend to eagerly anticipate your next updates. Simply stating thanks is not going to just be good enough, for your great clarity within your writing. I am going to instantly grab your rss to be privy of any kind of updates. Excellent work and much success in your business efforts!
March 9th, 2010 at 12:13 am
To American women, please save yourself from heartbreak. Australian men are more interested in their mates, footy and beer than women. You don’t know how lucky you are to be in America, where the men are actually still interested in women. :) We can only dream of receiving bouquets of flowers and being asked out on romantic dinner dates, like what happens in America. Which is why a lot of us here are obsessed with reality TV shows such as ’The Hills.’ :) We’re all going to be old maids, here.
March 9th, 2010 at 12:38 am
I wouldn’t listen to Eve
I find is fascinating and hippocritical what she says
all american women tell me that they cant stand american men because all they want is sex and will do anything for you to get it.
aussie men arnt like that we’d much rather have a self respecting fridget then a slut like Eve seems to be.
cheers

March 10th, 2010 at 10:56 pm
I would never lie to other women – I’m a real ‘girl’s girl’ – and I’m being very honest that Australian men are not the best in the romance department. I just want to save American women from some heartbreak. Australian men call you all the names under the sun, and are very quick to anger, sexist, insensitive, rude and hurtful. Don’t be deceived by the ‘Hollywood image’ of Australian actors. It’s all PR. Even then, sometimes cracks appear – like Mel Gibson and Russell Crowe. Especially when they’re drunk.
March 11th, 2010 at 3:44 am
Never lie to other women sounds like your sexist there.
and australian men are manly most women tell me there looking for men like that and are sick of metrosexual men like what your describing.
i always treat women equally in a buss im not going to give some woman my seat because some other woman can give it to her im as entitled to sit there as she is as where both equal but if shes my girl then i’d happily give her my seat
im only saying that as an example and its the yank men that get angry there the most sensitive people in the world they take everything offensive or find something offensive about it.
me i go to work i come home i have a few drinks and a game of pool with my mates iim currently single but all my mates girlfriends and wives go out with there friends and do girlie things
i dont see really where your coming from as australian men and women like there own space and like to be around there own sex as theres things you just cant talk about around ya girl ya know.
like i think me girl give me herpies or i think shes pregnant but aint saying anything or my pregant girl is looking like a cow
i cant go saying that to her can i and i think you have australian men very wrong
most women love australian men because we are manly and not some metrosexual soft moron.

Eve, Eve, Eve. Sounds like you have a chip on your shoulder. Maybe the simple answer is….the problem is actually you lol. I’m an Aussie guy, i’m not going to talk my self up, i don’t have to, actions speak louder than words.
Eve, i wish you all the best in your search for happiness, if your previous experiances with Aussie men weren’t good, you never got taken out to dinner, brought home flowers or had weekends away, maybe its because of this chip on your shoulder??
PETER- Mate, your never gonna get anywhere by bad mouthing people. I read your emails with you bad mouthing American men, calling them rude, metrosexual, lazy boring ect. Your not doing anybody justice by saying things like that. And most Australians including me, don’t share your beliefs. Do you actually know an American person? I do, and they are quite nice people. Their culture is a little different which isn’t a bad thing.
Enjoy~Kieron ;)

Eve – for heaven’s sake! What a hater!! “We’re all going to die old maids???” That would be hilarious if it wasn’t obvious you actually believe this nonsense. Australia has the same marriage rate as the US (and a slightly lower divorce rate).
Any Americans I’ve met were here in Australia, and my impression is that these are two cultures that are relatively similar. The countires I’ve visited tend to be non-English language countries – so Im used to cultures that are really different.
It’s funny to me how these Aussie women who feel better about themselves by hating Aussie men talk as if Australia and the US are the only two countries on Earth. (It’s a genuinely predictable phenomenon) How can Aussie men compete with the Hollywood image of America? How can men of any nationality?
Please get over you fantasies, the toxic Aussie man-bashing fantasy on the one hand and the idealisation of the US on the other. I’m sure Americans are generally as nice as people I’ve met in other places around the world, but there is a big world out there, bigger than the English speaking countries, and no matter where you go there are good, bad and indifferent people everywhere.
Thank Heavens Australia is nothing like your poisonous fantasies!!!!
