Fifty Ways to Seduce an Australian Woman

Two thirds of Aussie women choose partners based on personality vs. looks

Almost half of Aussie women believe Australian men are the most attractive nationality

80% of Australian’s believe arrogance and rudeness are the biggest turn offs  

Fifty Shades of Grey’s success on the silver screen has started conversations about seduction and passion across the nation. With more women than ever looking to secure their very own Mr Grey, Universal Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has surveyed Australian women and men on the best ways to impress a perspective partner.

This new study has revealed that Australian women and men are choosing partners based on personality, with two thirds of all people surveyed claiming they’d rather have a date with an interesting, funny person than a pretty face. Interestingly, money and job status rated as the least important factor with only 1% of all people surveyed claiming this would affect their dating decisions.

The study, commissioned by Universal Sony Pictures Home Entertainment to mark the home entertainment release of Fifty Shades of Grey, was inspired by a recent statistic* that 12% of all Australian’s are single and live alone. The study results will help the men of Australia emulate the undeniable attractiveness of the illusive Mr Grey from the record breaking Fifty Shades of Grey.

The surveyed people revealed that romance is not only alive and well but also very important, with good, old fashioned manners still high on the list of priorities in the dating world; gentlemanly hand holding, opening doors and pulling out chairs still proving to be key factors when impressing women. Arrogance and rudeness are the two traits that will see people going home alone.

Aussie men and their laid back personalities and good sense of humour are seen as most attractive, while British men with their melodic accents came in a close second.

Women believe that sending flirty text messages to their desired partner is the most effective way to gain attention, and that biting their lip like the infamous Anastasia Steel will also get pulses racing.

When asked what their ideal date would be, multiple people answered a date with Hollywood hunk Jamie Dornan who plays the infamous Mr Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey would top the list. Shortly followed by a romantic picnic on the beach and as a nation we aspire to have a relationship similar to Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky.

Former Miss Universe Australia, Laura Dundovic said, “One of the best parts about Australian men, is their laid back personalities and good sense of humour. I like a guy who is thoughtful and polite, taking me out to dinner or having a romantic picnic – you don’t need to spend lots of money to have a good time ”.

The majority of men and women surveyed agreed with Laura’s sentiments, with 80% saying that they didn’t want or need a perspective partner to spend over $100 a date.

The top tips people gave to single Aussie’s were that they should be confident when attracting a suitor and that good manners were highly important.
