'all men are pooheads', but are using grown up big boy words.

'Scuse me and sorry to interrupt and all that but I think you'll find that the correct phrase is 'bum bum heads'..... thank you, sorry..... and all that, um.

Have you tried swilling down as much beer as humanly possible, farting, burping, fagging & then you need to swap over to Bundy Rum or Jimmy and make sure you swill down heaps, swear and yell out 'show us your tits' - if you not doing any of the above - FORGET IT! - you got no hope - good luck in your search

Hi!

Ok, so maybe the issue isn't with the men, maybe it's with me...but I need some advice. I'm Cuban American and I've moved to Sydney. Since I've been here I've had quite a different experience with men. I've only met one from this site and the other three have been through friends or at social gatherings. All of these encounters with men have been short lived...and this is why I need insight.

Where I'm from, Miami, men are usually open and forthcoming. Here it seems like men don't know what they want. One minute they're calling me and the next they aren't. I'm not over analyzing and I'm not some teenager who's looking for attention 24/7.

I just need to hear from Australian men - In the dating world in Australia, are things done differently? It feels like it's a little game, something I'm not used to..and quite frankly, I don't like it.

Thoughts would be great! I've never posted on a forum in my life but I guess I'm hopeless and I need further insight.

Thanks for reading!


I was reading profiles last night, and Brissy has all the surfer girls, Melbourne has all the sophisticated chicks, and what does my hometown of Sydney have?
We have all the dykes, man!

Hope this helps!

typical....Perth never gets a mention.

In many ways Perth and WA is the most remarkable, obtuse to the right angle of Aussie square. Where even if you are a round peg, the square hole is so big you pop straight through and .... (leaves above sentence in risk of double entendres but hopes by acknowledging it no one will bite). The men here if one is boxing individuals, fall into many categories but the predominant one within each socio-economic background is stereotypical to the max and I applaude the whole hearted approach, tis very Aussie of them. The women....meh...I fall outside categories apart from others' projections and sometimes tis such fun to play their daft games and watch them losewhilst thinking they are winning, tis the polite English manners in me.

Wouldn't it be a hoot if they were thinking the exact same thing...or even better if they werent even playing to begin with.

Seriously though, there are good men around OP and eventually you will come across one. The d1ckheads who show their true colours early are just saving you the trouble of figuring it out yourself.

I can be a D1ckhead at times but the only time I play with peoples heads are when they are an even bigger d1ck than me.

Even though at times I come off as a complete and utter arsehole, I have to say although I tease woman playfully, I have always found it distasteful to play games

I can't speak for all Australian men, but it is important I think to keep in mind modern Australia is a very diverse and multicultural country and also we are more sharply divided along class, religious and cultural lines than we were in the past. As a consequence men are very different and come from many different cultures and backgrounds. I doubt there is a universal 'norm' that can be applied to all men, even in Australia.

I think though life is more open and cosmopolitan in the Eastern states than it is here in the more isolated parts of the country.

I refuse to comment on the grounds I might incriminate myself but yeah I can understand where that comes from.

"If I lay here
If I just lay here
would you lie with me and just forget the world?"

For some reason that has been going through my mind for the last few days

your problem is that australian men are socially retarded,look at the way we brits treat women,with class and respect,make them feel like the queens that they are,ossie men just conjure up images of sheilas,beer ,crocs and trying to prove their masculinity,so very sad.if your heart desires love and compatability you're in the wrong country

Yes I think you may be right.

As an added bonus the Brits seem to actually be literate. Not to mention the accents are divine.
