A British study has revealed that Australian men make the worst husbands.
Having lived in Australia for three years I can say the stereotype of the macho beer-swilling, sports-loving, sexist man does exist. However, society is changing and none of my male friends were like this.
Men in their 20s and 30s seem to have grown up with mothers who were part of the 60s and 70s feminist movements, so they often know how to look after themselves without the need of a woman. However, as can be seen from this study, Australia still has a ways to go in terms of gender equality. Let's teach our boys how to cook and clean and take care of themselves and try to get rid of the bad reputations that Australian men have around the world.
