Australian Dating Culture: What Men Really Think

[@oscarwest9389]

While your intentions are good, as an Aussie who spent several years living in Sydney, I don't think it's as pleasant for guys as you make out. I also think your experience might be a lot different to most too because you have the accent (which definitely changes things when cold approaching). You've clearly got a lot in your bag to offer too in terms of Corporate Career (& possibly finances if you can afford to live in Sydney and afford to go out). So with the accent, the looks, the career, and the money - girls are going to pick up on that straight away, as well as the confidence you might project from having these things behind you. But, for most men in Australia, they're not going to tick all of those boxes, which means the response from women is most often going to be different. As I said, I lived in Sydney for several years, as well as a large Coastal town north of Sydney, and my observation through personal experience and the experiences of other guys I've heard from has been this: Girls in Australia (especially Sydney) are looking to TICK BOXES. They're looking for 'Looks', 'Money' (finance/bankers), 'Career', 'Status', 'Fame', 'Footy Players', 'DJ's', 'Coke Dealers', 'The Bad Boys', 'One of the Boys', 'Security Guards to the best Clubs', 'Traveler's', 'Surfers', 'Muscles', 'Tatts', and basically anyone with a title or at the top of the hierarchy of their particular Sub Culture. Personality; Character; Sense of Humour; Intelligence; Good Values; Respect; and being 'Reliable & Trustworthy' etc don't seem to become attractive until you have something superficial/materialistic to offer that serves THEM personally, and quite often, socially. This changes of course when women are much older, when they're now looking for a 'good value man' as opposed to the 'high value man' because 'they' are ready to 'settle down'. But so often as the story goes, they find that the 'good value men' have all gone elsewhere to meet 'good value women' and the options for them are now depleted, much to their despair, and at times anger, towards men (like it’s our fault somehow that they spent the prime years of their life chasing after the wrong men while the good value men got pushed to the way side or put on the shelf ‘for later’. I can't help but get the sense that you belong to a very small percentage of men that have had a good experience with women in this country, and that's great, but from my perspective, most men find Aussie women: 'Difficult', 'Entitled', 'Drama Queens', 'Unapproachable', 'Rude', 'Abrupt', 'Judgemental', 'Disinterested in making any effort or reciprocating conversation', 'Unable to have conversations', 'Unable to ask questions', 'Have double standards with men' (eg Footy Player/High Status Guy vs Average Guy on the street), 'Untrustworthy', 'Secretive', 'Have multiple men going at same time to serve what they are looking for at any given time', 'Too focused on their phones and their instagram', 'Quick to judge online profiles, bio's and pictures (unless you show off high value & status)'...so on and so forth. Let me emphasise, there ARE women out there who are NOT like this, and who are great value, but as these women would tell you, so many women out there would be one or more of the above, which also makes it difficult for 'good value women' to meet other 'good value women'. This is just some feedback because when you talk so much about how Australian girls are so easy to talk to and friendly, I'm wondering whether you're talking about Australian women, or women who have just arrived in the country from somewhere else and are yet to adopt the default difficulty setting of most Aussie woman. Lastly, you might think that this has all come from someone who is single and resentful. It hasn't. This has come from a 'decent' looking guy who has had success (at different times in life) with women in the past (when I was single). I also want to say that I have a lot of love and respect for women. All of the above comes from a place of observation over a long period of time in this country. I care about men and mens health. And I've known many men (including myself) who have struggled with their relationships with women (in particular 'difficult' women) whether that be in passing, or in short term/long term relationships. I guess when I hear men making it sound all good here in Australia (and Sydney) I can't help but feel the need to reach out and share an alternative perspective on behalf of those who feel discouraged, and do my best to normalise the difficulty that most men face. That is, that relationships in all contexts between men & women are not anywhere near as good as what they could and should be, and that as a result, both men & women are missing out. Cheers, I hope this has been helpful.

You are absolutely 100% right. There is another channel runned by a Real Aussie guy who reviewed All the different cities in Australia and He pretty much said the same things as You did and Sydney seems to be the worse of All the other cities as well, then Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide. Dating in Australia is very difficult for Men who earn a decent stable income but aren't in the career fields where most women are looking into for what the men does for living. Chances for average guys to date women are even much harder.

I’ve met some great women (at least to my face) but I’ve dealt with alot of bad ones too that have no respect for their partners, or doing what’s right by them in a relationship they just want want want and don’t want to have your back or best interests at heart either.

finally an actually good response. you my friend are someone who has all the characteristics at just the right threshold that you would struggle in stages but in others thrive(thus knowledge bestowed). most men who are even more successful than yourself cannot relate to you. your like me. not particularly bad and not particularly good either. we are the ones who know. people who are overtly tall cannot relate. people who are overtly rich cannot relate. people who are overtly jacked cannot relate. people who have a certain level of all of these things are what you and i are. we are the ones who know. most cannot understand because they arent at the crossroads to understand both the plight and the bountiful nature of life. those who have never had are forever lost. those who have always had are funnily enough lost but found. you and i are the ones who see the conditional nature of life. everything is conditional. blackpill isnt an easy pill to swallow. i personally dont believe in blackpill. but life has proven black pill to be atleast 80 percent correct. i look at dating through the lense of black pill within reason on 20 percent because i apply the pareto principle to the logic. about 20 percent of things 80 percent of people do can change their current state of living which is exactly why im not particularly black pilled despite believing in it at a principle level. because i do believe in change despite its difficulty. but im not blind to the realities of a seasoned mind. there really is only so much mileage. in this particular case the west in general has underlying conditions that lead to its current state. australia as an example is sadly a mini america. its nothing like it was in the 90s. i really really hate to say it but australia lost its identity so so long ago. it pisses me off actually because the nationalist pride i used to feel saying the national anthem in school no longer rings the same for me. dating in australia is fucking hard. 20 percent of the things i can do to make dating better for me doesnt particularly mean i will land a good worthy date. it just means i get to eat at the table(pfft). australias biggest issue in dating is that we hold onto old national qualities that no longer represent the realities within the country. dating white women in australia is next to impossible using 80s and 90s logic even if you retconn the logic for dating apps. it simply wont work. infact you would get burned harder than a modern day incel. flowers?(friendzoned). open the door for her(misogynyst). pay on first date(im an independent woman). you get me. truth is we need to look at australia as australia but with the touch that we are an international dating market. thats the BRUTAL truth. women dont do this. men in australia are internationally tall as fuck. but within the country me at 5'11 is considered short...like what?. i go to philipines and im a greek god. thats what white women in australia dont understand. they take qualities that i have such as my blonde hair blue eyes white skin and taller stature for granted. internationally im a 8. im a 9 if i had money to go with that and im not sure what would make me a 10 maybe you could figure that one out. aussie women dont want to hear it. in their eyes if you dont have money or unrealistic physique you are a 4 and they will treat you as a foodie call for multiple dates until they feel you might just not do it the 3rd or 4th time... its crazy. at a certain point if there was some factor that brought all nationalities together these white women in australia wont be so insufferable. i literally see white women in australia as more insufferable than incels and life long virgins. i cannot stand their conduct. children have better self control. the thing is that where you get these men that say oh dating here is great...theyre always tall rich handsome and usually not from here so they have an accent...like cmon. the funny thing is they dont understand their lives are affected by a factor where you tend to run in circles of people alike. tall people with tall people etc. notice how in this vid he only looked down on a few people? he was already a tall dude but he managed to get conversations with 50 percent of the people being EVEN TALLER than himself... thats the thing. you cant use your ears. they lie. you have to use optics. people have it the other way around by listening then observing. its setting them up to fail. thats what keeps you in your box. things that sound right arent right when you be a bit more optical with your approach. i dont care what anyone says because making assumptions about people is the most powerful thing if your not subject to delusions. taller people run in tall circles and are exempt from the realities much like the rich and famous. if you come from nothing but can witness these things you are blessed with knowledge but not wealth. learn to use your eyes and not your ears to not fall for their tricks. wordplay is strongest weapon to keep people down. it really is mightier than the sword. it tells whom to chop it with so long as your in their ear.

Being an Aussie who used to live in Melbourne for most of my life, but now happily living in Europe for the last 6 years. I remember that Aussie girls love the English accent and like that you are from somewhere different. Easier in Aus for guys if you are from another country and somewhat attractive with a personality. English, Irish, Brazilian, Italian, Spansih, German, French all have it easier. Next best thing to a celebrity, something different for the girls.

I am American of Mexican descent and was in a relationship with an Aussie girl whose parents were Egyptian. She was lovely at first, like you said in the video, very feminine. However, after six months, it became a nightmare. Culturally acceptable to drink after work with coworkers was a red flag. She was overly friendly with male colleagues and didn't seem to set boundaries. We ended it after one year it wasn't for me. She was a beautiful, stunning woman but culturally too much of a libertine for me. I will stick with American women or Hispanic.

"Australian Dating Culture: What Men Really Think" Introduction: This video explores the perspectives of men on Australian dating culture, specifically focusing on the experiences of single men in major cities like Sydney. The narrator, David Thorp, an Englishman who has been living in Sydney for six years and recently married an Australian woman, shares his insights and those of other men he has interviewed. The video presents interviews with various men, who share their thoughts and experiences on dating in Sydney. Some key points raised include: 1. Sydney can be challenging for dating due to people's perceived "stuck-up" attitudes and the tendency to be absorbed in their own bubbles, making organic interactions difficult. 2. Accents and cultural diversity can work to one's advantage in attracting interest from women. 3. Cold approaches and putting oneself out there are necessary in Sydney's dating scene, as people are less inclined to socialize spontaneously. 4. Online dating apps have gained popularity due to the perceived difficulty of meeting people organically. 5. Sydney offers a diverse dating pool with people from various cultural backgrounds, creating a unique and attractive dynamic. David Thorp shares his personal experiences and observations: 1. He was pleasantly surprised by the femininity, attractiveness, and fitness-oriented lifestyles of Australian women, contrary to negative stereotypes. 2. Australian women often have diverse cultural backgrounds, speaking multiple languages and embracing their heritage alongside Australian culture. 3. The dating culture in Australia is similar to other Western countries, with a typical progression from meeting at bars, going on dates, and potentially transitioning into relationships. 4. Cold approaches and online dating are viable options for meeting potential partners in Australia. 5. Thorp highly recommends Australia, particularly Sydney, for its dating opportunities, attractive women, and overall lifestyle. Conclusion: The summary encapsulates the video's main points; however, for detailed understanding, watch the entire video.

[@Li-jn2qz]

Could you please explain why your friends said that Australia is not as good compared to Russia, Brazil and America? I am curious

[@datingthorpe]

It's because they hadn't been to Australia but had been to these other countries. They assumed Australia is so far away there's not much going on and couldn't project what it would be like.

[@bigrobsydney]

I've lived overseas for a few decades and recently returned to Australia. Culturally, Australia is VERY conservatives on average, but of course, there will always be outliers. Remember, the exception does not prove the rule. That said, Australian's tend to be very wary about putting themselves out there. Most guys are sick and tired of rejection, and wont bother unless things are "perfect", which rarely happens. I say this, after watching many of my friends who are single, really struggle. And I'm trying to raise my children in such a way that they are a little more open minded, but this goes against the cultural conditioning, and unfortunately the rubbish being propagated on social media forums.

[@datingthorpe]

Thanks Rob. For the Australians I know more of them are quite happy staying put in country and the remaining few do want to travel, learn and broaden their horizons. The issue is Australia is just so far away from everywhere else. Agree with you on the conservative nature despite appearances. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

I actually like the English accent but English men and pretty much the whole of the male British population don't like me! Dating in Sydney is impossible for me. I think there a lot of options for guys as I know so many guys who date a different woman each night or week (or sleep with them) but for women, we're always looking for something solid and lasting whereas all the men don't want anything serious. I and many of my female friends remain single indefinitely; we're the has been's! Men have so many women to pick from that having a good job, your own place, being fit and active, and looking good is just not enough anymore to attract a guy in this day and age! I don't think Australians like being approached and though I like approaching people, it's not welcomed. I have a lot of foreign friends and I find it easier to get along with foreigners as I've lived abroad a few times and my foreign female friends all prefer foreign guys over Aussie guys. I love Aussie men but like Brits, they also don't like me! At the very least, you can keep yourself active and busy with hobbies and friends even if dating is abysmal in Australia.

[@Texasno420]

It’s pretty simple - trust me. All you have to do is smile, make physical contact (touch his shoulder, hands) and then tell him you are attracted to him and would like to get to know you. Trust me your a female and 8 out of 10 times this will work

As a man over 40, I'm slightly suspicious of women who show interest in me, especially attractive ones, which is a leftover from high school when popular girls used to prank average guys by pretending to be interested in them. I think the best way forward for women is to show genuine interest in the guy, ask if they'd be interested in having lunch/dinner and, this is the important part, say that you don't want him to pay, you'd just like to get to know him better. The other suspicion of women these days is that they are just after a free meal and have no real interest in the guy, which too many are.
