Are Australian Men Really the World’s Worst Husbands?

Make of this what you will but I have a hard time believing this:

AUSTRALIAN men make the worst husbands in the world because they loathe helping out with the housework, a British study claims.

An economist from Oxford University found that women wanting to settle down were better off finding a bloke from Scandinavia, the US or Britain than Australia.

Study author Dr Almudena Sevilla-Sanz said that based on her study of 12 developed countries, men and women were both more likely to cohabit or marry if they believed their partner would help out with the household chores and childcare.

But it appears that when it comes to finding a husband willing to help out, Australian women have a tough time.

Dr Sevilla-Sanz’s study ranked Australia as the least egalitarian society, making its men unattractive marriage partners because they were more unlikely to do household chores.

Norway, Sweden, Great Britain, the US and Northern Ireland were judged to be the most egalitarian countries, making their men the most attractive marriage partners.  [AAP]

How can you call Australian men the world’s worst husbands when only 12 nations were surveyed?  These survey results actually even made the news here in the US and of course nothing was said about only 12 countries being surveyed.

Aussie men may be the worst in the world but nothing compared to the Aussie female whose attributes include selfishness, infedility and poor lovers.

I Never married one and refuse to live with one after a bad experience. I do not know therefore. Australian women can be extremely rude on Facebook but may be they have no connections in the real world. who knows.
