AUSSIE men: Do you
regularly play footy with mates? Get under the bonnet of your car?
Own a shed?
If not, you could be one of the increasing number of Aussie men
going soft.
According to the results of a survey that polled 1000 Australian
men on their blokeyness, "the nation's iconically hard Aussie
blokes are a dying breed".
Only 5 per cent of men regularly play football with their
friends; almost 50 per cent admit it has been months since they
tinkered with their car; and shed ownership has dropped 27 per cent
over a generation.
On the flipside, concern for skin care is growing and Australian
men are not afraid to wear pink.
More than three-quarters of men polled in the survey,
commissioned by Kirks Brewed Ginger Beer, agreed that men were
"softer" than the previous generation.
