I am 31, and considering moving to Australia…

There are people like that everywhere in the world indeed. So living in Saudi Arabia is just the same as living in Sweden.
And living in Knightbridge is the same as living in Dagenham.
Do some thinking before blurting stuff out.

Well considering 30% of Australians were born in a different country that just reflects that men are awful surely?
Unless you have some sort of racist picture in your head of who is Australian?

Well, that’s colonials for you. They don’t even have what it takes to produce Andrew Tate.

I wouldn't live in Oz if you paid me. I am much better suited to countries with wolves or at least foxes than wolf spiders. Still, my brother was treated most excellently by his oncological team in Sydney, and his cancer was fortunately detected early, because he was able to see a doctor. This is not the reality for swathes of people in the UK. Perhaps you live in a place where you have GP access, though.

Australia probably isn't the country for you either then.

I'm more concerned about the hospitals and GP access to be honest.

The OP isn’t talking about emigrating, just going over there for a year!

Australian men are awful.

Just to add, if it was me, I would avoid the West coast, as it's far more isolated then the East Coast

Plus more Australian wildlife parks than you can shake a stick at.

All capital cities have art galleries, multiple museums, theatres, major sporting events, etc. Depending on time of year and location, lots and lots of great markets, including craft markets. Then there are all the shows (aka fairs) both in capital cities and rural locations. Multiple winegrowing areas. Tasmania is an artisans mecca.

then there is the Great Barrier Reef. And the Great Barrier Reef. Did I mention the Great Barrier Reef? It does stretch for over 1400 miles (miles for UK readers). And over 16,000 miles of coastline.

Stay out of long grass, and the snakes will leave you alone. Don't stick your hands into dusty, cobwebby corners, and the spiders will leave you alone. Don't ever try and corner a kangaroo - their kick is vicious. Avoid cassowaries - they still think they are dinosaurs. If a swimming hole has a crocodile sign, then stay away - you cannot spot a crocodile if they don't want you to see them.
