Dating starts out in big groups and it isn’t until the teens are 18 or 19 years old that they pair off. And talk about the turn of the century, it is the women who do the asking out as “guys are reluctant to ever approach a girl if she is in a group of friends because the likelihood of her being a snob to them is higher,” says Esther Akselrud, 22. Unlike in the States where it’s not uncommon for the couple to “take it all the way” if the first date goes well, in Australia, “the best a guy can hope for is a kiss and some touching … Definitely no sex!” explains Esther. The girls sure know what they want, and what they don’t.

Dating. It’s a whole other world. Pun intended.
