| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 1:19:01 PM | They have Russian, Asian, Indian, Persian, African American dating sites. Great for if you're into meeting a person of specific nationality. So then I got to thinkin...I've met about 15 beautiful Aussie women in the last couple years and they are fun, warm, funny, non-materialistic, cuddly, physically attractive, and they have that great accent. ( Love that accent.)
So what do ya think of a dating site for Australian women ? Think about it...Canadian men and Aussie women are legendary for how much they get along.
Any ideas also WHY Aussie women and Canadian men get along so well? Similar attitudes or something? I wish I could afford to go there, but hey, it IS a goal of mine. Share your thoughts folks... | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 1:32:45 PM | | I think it has to do with our history. I believe both countries have good relations with each other and tend to do things together. | |
|
| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 3:35:46 PM | So what your saying is that you have nothing in common with women from Canada, is this correct?
I am sure there must be a dating site of some sorts out there that you can utilize that will have more of what your looking for possibly. Are there not Aussie women on POF as well? I thought this site was global?

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 7:25:19 PM | Well, we just weeded out another Canadian male. On a couple of accounts 1. insensitivity - most people would recognize this thread is offensive to Canadian women, 2. intelligence or lack off - use this site to find you Aussie women or surf and find another.
We will miss you Stone poster and hopefully you dont come whining back to us when you become disillusioned with aussie women, Stoned Poster. (I guess I am not allow to say something like this is the most thoughtless thread begun this month.) | |
|
| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 9:04:59 PM | OP, perhaps you should:
1. Delete your profile & sign up with an Aussie dating site. 2. Post on your profile "Only Aussie women need apply". 3. Move to Australia where you will be surrounded by your fill of Aussie women. | |
|
| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 9:23:43 PM | well instead of thrashing you for a simple question I will answer it from what I have read and moreso been TOLD by my Australian female cousins. ( apologies to the Australian men this doesn't apply to)
Any ideas also WHY Aussie women and Canadian men get along so well? because Australian men are notoriously arrogant, sexist and demanding. Canadian men are more generous, treat others as equals and more laid back and polite. My cousins words NOT mine hmmmmmmmmkay?? yes I realize that many Canadian men aren't shining examples too but this is a generalization made by women,........ and we all know what generalizations get us right????? | |
|
| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 9:32:35 PM | Anyone recall the recent threads about people on POF and their preferances? Wellll, this OP is NOT slamming Canadian women from what I can see. He is simply throwing out a question as well as an idea. Why slam him for it?
Oh, by the way X, it's not "account" it's "count". Hmmm, you are a school teacher?? And you are always quick enough to point out others foibles, maybe take a peek in your own intellectual dictionary.
As to the topic, I too have noticed that Aussie people are quite laidback. Might be one of the reasons. Heehee, some of the Canadian women (NOT ALL) can be a teensie bit highstrung. (Of course, myself excluded on the highstrung bit! ). | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 9:49:37 PM | I myself see nothing offensive with regards to the subject the OP has posted. He has stated a "preference" towards a particular nationality of women. It is no better / worse than men's preferences for Asian, Philipino, or Vietnamese women. I am sure there are plenty of women out there who would have the same type of preferences, yet the guys wouldn't DARE slam them for it now would they? To each their own..... | |
|
| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 9:51:42 PM | ^^^ I wasn't accusing the OP of slamming Canadian women. Since he stated what seemed to be a preference for Aussie women, I was sharing a few suggestions on how he could connect with more Aussie gals. Of course, I'm sure there are many Aussie women who have lived in Canada long enough to have their Canadian citizenship as well ... so he could possibly connect with a Canadian/Aussie woman & have the best of both worlds.  | |
|
| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 9:55:02 PM | | No FunnyandSweet, you didn't. Another poster simply tried to imply that the OP was being insensitive to Canadian women and maybe we aren't as good as the Aussie's. Then again, maybe she wasn't implying he was slammying us, but she sure could have been a little nicer with how she treated the OP! Then again, seems to happen alot on here!!! | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 9:57:36 PM | Sweet, I was just totally reminded of the hot Australian waiter who served me meatballs in Whistler, and seemed a bit perplexed that I didn't want spaghetti with them. Even his perplexity was hot.
OT: It probably has something to do with the beer. Nearly everything does. | |
|
| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/23/2008 10:27:18 PM | Wow........
Seems if some guys kinda sorta state a desire or preference on a nationality of the lady he'd like too meet.......
Look out........ The old double standard rears it's ugly head once again. It would seem the sensitive types take exception to a simple stated preference. Go for it OP, maybe some of the Aussie gals are a lil less jumpy....... | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/24/2008 2:12:16 PM | Lookin - had the flu yesterday and still do today, so please lower the bar for me. I think my points are still valid and that is what counts on all accounts or counts. I will try to be more acountable for my errors in the future. You seem to know things about my occupation, Lookin, that I was not aware of, but it is all good.
Stone - if you cannot see how Canadian women may interpret your post as insulting, I give up.
All - you know many of you are grossly overgeneralizing. These women are this way and these men that way and so on and so on.
I thought it was nice that Panther actually tried to help you, Stone. | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/24/2008 2:25:53 PM | | Xavery have you ever considered getting some Vitamins or something to boost your ammunity to sickness? I know teachers often get ill more often from being around sick students and co-workers, this could explain why you are often "off" on your postings.I personally think the OP has a better chance of meeting someone even with stating he prefers Aussie women then you do with your negative attitude with almost every post you reply to.Of course the Posts you come up with yourself you find quite alright...just seems unless you come up with the idea or agree with it , you turn on the person posting his /her own opinions and .2 cents worth.I hope you are soon feeling better so we can see a new cheery....positive side to you we ALL must know is hiding somewhere.Summer holidays should give you plenty of time for some rest and relaxation so that you can then be "on" your game. ...Disclaimer for my spelling ,grammer and points of view mistakes! | |

So X why would Canadian chicks be insulted? Stone wants an Aussie chick for reasons that I understand. My Aussie and Brit woman friends are so much different then Canadian woman. For one they are more outspoken, they say what’s on their minds, their not afraid to tell a guy to go **** himself and yes they will keep a guy inline. Sometimes you are so quick to jump down a person’s throat just because of their thoughts and wants. Oh and while on the subject of foreign chicks I went to the island on Sat to meet my Scottish lady friend and she’s just as feisty as the Aussies and the Brits. Too bad she can’t drink like a Brit though! Lol! | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/24/2008 4:07:54 PM | Oh don't get me wrong. I've met a lifetime's worth of Lower Mainland women who are funny, easy going, intelligent, sweet, sexy, thoughtful, caring, and amazingly beautiful.
They're all married.
I'm on POF to find the same type of woman in the single and interested in me category. Aussie, Canadian, Klingon, whatever. | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/24/2008 4:21:18 PM | | Hey Stone,Checked out the Aussie chicks on this site.There's thirty one between the ages of thirty and fifty,would have went down a bit more in age ,but sorry dude ,I checked out your pictures too.Any way for a dating site I guess that would be rather slim pick ins,why don't you try going on a vacation down under,if nothing else just think of all the cool crocks and snakes | |

Don't feel bad about your post, OP. There's nothing wrong with it.
Lots of people have their personal preferences, and I haven't happened to meet any BC guys that I meshed with (except for the married ones, but they are persona non grata datewise, obviously). For some reason, foreign men love me, especially Europeans, with the odd Aussie and a few Americans thrown in for good measure. And I often really dig them too, but I don't want a long distance relationship, it hurts too much (unless you have the means to rectify it immediately). I refuse to live in the states, and moving to Europe is a huge step that I'm not sure I could take, haha.
So, you and I are in a similar boat. I wish you luck! Oh, and vay' DaneHbogh yIchargh. Just hope she doesn't say jIwuQ.
(that's Klingon for 'conquer what you desire' and 'I have a headache' respectively. I am such a nerd, aaaaaah) | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/24/2008 7:09:10 PM | I don't see anything wrong with the OPs post either. That's the thing with these forums it is easy for people to jump to conclusions based on their own issues.
The following is based on generalizations, which is something I usually try to avoid, but here goes.
I have heard this from a few Auzzie women I have met through the years; Auzzie men tend to treat their women more as a possession than a partner. I believe most Canadian men have been brought up to treat women with respect and as a partner, not a possession. Therefore perhaps some Auzzie women show more appreciation for something they have been missing, while some Canadian women take it for granted.
Remember, the generalizations on Auzzie men are not based on my own experience, I have no life experience in this area and therefore cannot claim it as one of my perceptions; It is a generalization used soley as a basis to postulate a possible reason the OP has had this experience with Auzzie women.
I have met plenty of Canadian men, as well as men of other countries, that treat women respectfully and with care. There are also plenty of women (of various countries and cultures, including Canadian) who appreciate the men in their lives and treat them respectfully and with care; so in the end I believe it is more about having care for others, treating others with respect and trying not to take each other for granted.
Have to say though, that a sexy accent will get my attention, at least initially. It's perfectly natural to be curious or attracted to someone who is different and outside of the norm, at least for some of us.  | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/24/2008 7:18:01 PM | Stonefield, you came onto a BC Forum and asked about finding an Aussie woman. If that is what you are looking for why don't you state that on your profile and not in a public forum where you might not like the answers. Don't ask a question if you don't want to know a million replies. You asked everyone! ffs | |

You were smart to include the disclaimer.
Scenes - I do feel I was little hard on Stone.
Cody, Scenes and Stone - One could conclude that Canadian women are unlike the Australian women Stones has described in his original posting.
They are fun, warm, funny, non-materialistic, cuddly, physically attractive, and they have that great accent. OP
It sounds like Stone is having trouble finding these attributes in Canadian women.
Scenes - You write "then you do" and then the sentence becomes very run-on. I think you are suggesting that Stones has a better chance of meeting an Australian woman than I do because of my negative attitude. Perhaps, he does and I am happy for him. I do not consider my attitude negative - just an attitude. You have judged it. What I really believe you are saying is that you don't like my attitude.
Scenes - It would be nice if you came up with some threads.
Stone - Looking back, I think I may have over reacted. There are many good things about your initial post. First - you know what type of woman you are looking for and secondly - the women on this site know and need not apply if they don't match your list of attributes. | |

| Great idea for an Aussie dating site. Posted: 6/25/2008 12:50:46 AM | ^^^ A Stone is also cold, inflexible, hard (ok I admit the latter might be a bonus ). A Stone is something people toss into the water or walk all over. But one can also build a solid foundation (relationship?) out of Stone. Then you have to decide whether you're the type of Stone that is igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic, stratified or unstratified, sandStone, limeStone, shale, marble, slate, granite, etc. So if you're going to adopt the name Stone, you should decide what kind of Stone you are. And that's where the nickname Stone becomes way too complicated. Ok, I admit I'm just being silly now.  | |
