Well, physically they look like they fell out the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down! (only kidding...not)

They belch, swear, watch and play rugby, fish, and cook a mean bbq for which they want to be regarded as cooking-gods.

They are not renowned for being cassanovas, and as for being "friends", they're quite "blokey" which means I dunno if they'd just wanna be "friends with girls", they tend to want to be seen as macho types.
Hi Camelot....... That was very witty regarding the "....this ANSWER will ....get me in trouble....." very funny... lol And I happen to love the "macho" type...... So I'm hoping for a good match between us.... Thank you for the input.....Much appreciated... Cheers......

You'll be in heaven down here then - there's loads of 'rugby-playing' macho types!

Kind regards - Camelot

Hi again Camelot..... Actually, I'm not moving there... This is someone I met that lives in the UK now... He is a New Zealander and I am a Native Californian.... So I was just trying to find out more info on NZ men, being that he is the first "Kiwi" I've ever met....... So far he is quite wonderful.... Thanks again........

Me and my mates once were coming up to a group of matlos (navy boys) joggin along the footpath/road, and as we went past we browneyed/moonied them! (dropped our knickers and stuck our bums out the windows of the car).

Next thing we knew, the bloody car came to a grinding halt!. We quickly rearranged our attire as this bunch of fit, flabless lads approached us. Turned out we had a blocked fueline, which they fixed for us and wished us well on our journey!

What a great bunch of guys! And not one of them laughed or took the piss out of us for our antics and the timing of the car's seizure! Real gentlemen *sigh*

Annie all i can say is i hope your good at massage, cos all the men i meet (yeah theyre Gay) all like to do massage, the men here arnt as tough or rough as aussie men, and are usually careing and thoughtful and seem romantic.

But im a gay bloke, so dunno about what you ladies look for i a guy

good luck and enjoy it

Yep. I don't know where the term 'matlos' came from tho, but yes they were NZ Navy guys. I kind of think the self discipline of being in the defence forces can generally be a positive thing,(though it can be a 'boys' club that doesn't value and respect womenat times too. You have to 'suss' out the guy as an individual of course and see where he is really at ).

To be honest I think you find good, not so good and downright bad in any nationality inc NZers. But generally speaking NZers are usually a bit more laidback. I think you can find decent guys and pigs whether they had a higher education or not. A lot comes down to what their parents were like and how they treated them etc and what level of maturity they are at and what values they hold .

This really is down to the individual guy you meet.You can find bastards and darlings in any nationality I am sure. The average Kiwi is far less sports oriented, materialistic, arrogant, superficial or power hungry than their Aussie counterpart and more likely I think to be romantic and considerate in my experience.

They sometimes need to be gently reminded though that too much alcohol does not a Romeo make

Like all men they aren't prone to sharing their feelings a lot of the unless you can encourage them to do so. Of course exceptions do occur

I believe in the old adage of treating others as you would like to be treated , and if they don't treat you accordingly then 'haul them over the coals' (let them know you are dissatisfied and why and what you expect in a relationship) so they get the picture!

This method usually yields results and if it doesn;t then think about moving on. A relationship is two people communicating, trusting, empathising and working together to grow closer to each other. If you don't feel this happening then you need to sit down and talk about it and develop strategies to improve things.

Good luck

That's spot on. In all cases. My Kiwi was the first man I'd ever met who was prepared to accept he might be wrong in an argument and apologise too. That always made me feel that he valued me. Counts for a lot I think. We were in our 30s when we met and had a better idea of what we were looking for in a life-long partner. I couldn't speak for all Kiwi men but my fella would hate if I was clingy or dependent on him for everything. But then, I'd hate if he was like that either. We spend every minute we can together because we know we don't have to. Does that make sense? We've been together nearly 13 years and it just gets better and better. I've been married to an Irishman, went out with an Englishman and a couple of Dutch guys and no way could they compare. Saying all Kiwi men are macho and only like rugby etc.etc. is like saying all English men are boring and only want to spend Saturday afternoons in the pub and talk about football all the time.

Out of curiosity, why did you marry a Chinese lady when there are plenty of Kiwi women 'available'?
Or was it a case that no Kiwi woman in her right mind would have you ;-)
