Australian Women

I know a few people on here are from Australia and in the not to distant future I will be going there. I was wondering if the women are different from American women? Because alot of American women are straight up bitches and I have heard that Australian women are very friendly. Also where is the best place to go in Australia I was considering Melbourne, or either Sydney. Let me know guys I will be thetre for 2 weeks so I want to see some good stuff. Later

I've never really been out a lot in Melbourne so I can't comment on it.

Sydney isn't bad.

Its true, our women aren't the most virtuous in the world. With your accent, you won't need much of a game if you are hitting the clubs. You'll do fine. If you go to Sydney, I'd stick to the city or the Eastern areas.

We have all kinds of women here, many of ours are straight up bitches too. But if you're doing a whirlwind tour you will identify them early and move on to the next.

Why not try both Sydney and Melbourne?

I am American but studied abroad in Australia for 6 months, primarily living in Sydney.

In my experience Australian women were friendlier and easier than American women, but there were not as many hotties as you would find in a major American city like NYC or Miami. Also, there is a fair amount of anti-American sentiment among some Aussies, though that may have been exacerbated by the fact that I was there during the start of the Iraq war. Interestingly, if you start talking to an Aussie and they hear your accent they will almost always ask you if you are Canadian first because Canadian people get really offended if someone asks if they are American.

As far as where to go, I would spend as little time in the cities as possible. The best part about Australia is its natural beauty. If you must stay in a city I would say go for Sydney. Check out Bondi and Manli beaches, the Opera House, the Taronga Zoo (very good zoo and great views of the city), royal botanic gardens, walk the harbour bridge, go out drinking in the Rocks, etc.

2 weeks is a short amount of time to see Australia, btu if your there you should definitely see the outback and Uluru (formerly known as Ayer's Rock). And of course you must go scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef. My favorite place in Australia though was Whitehaven Beach in the Whitsunday Islands. It's a more or less empty island with a beach of pure white sand like baby powder. There are a lot of sailing trips that go around the islands and stop on Whitehaven Beach. I highly recommend.

Whatever you decide to do, do a lot of research and schedule things well because you never know if you'll have the chance to go back.

i lived in melbourne for about 5.5 yrs its was amazing, also had my stays in sydney and other cities. I loved melbourne LOTS OF hot women, broad range of types as its a very european city and its easy to get around and TONs to do and see.

Honestly as a guy i liked melbourne better overall as it seemed a little less crowded and easier to get around with just as many great things to go and do.

Wow you're prejudice. Women are women in any country. If you ever had problems w/ american women, it's probaly your personality faults, and it won't go away even if you talk to australians.

Women are always nicer to foreigners.

Yeah, this is pretty well known outside of North America. When you hear a "north american" accent, you always ask "are you from Canada?" first. Americans never care if asked that, but Canadians often get quite pissed off when asked if they are American, or "which state are you from"? etc.
