Is there any differences between the British or Kiwi man?

[fancyafrenchfancy]

Just that really…

Posting here for traffic. Anyone who has had any experience with Kiwi man? Generally speaking are they different than the British guys?

Are they more polite, generous and chilled?

But more to the point OP, a Kiwi man is flirting if he asks you whether you'd like to see his duck.

I am a Kiwi and my DP of 10 years is British. We live in NZ. Things I had to get used to:

• Mad about football instead of rugby
• long trips home to see his mum
• complains every single year that Xmas should be in winter
• complains a lot in general
• much to my horror, his idea of a "holiday" was an all-inclusive in Tenerife
• quite happily talks about his feelings

Ha! - Definitely this. And insist on wearing jandals too.

Kiwi men have a long, pointy beak and are nocturnal.

You know nothing. Birds' beaks are measured from the nostrils to the the tip. Kiwis are unusual in that they have nostrils at the tip of their beak. Kiwis have the shortest beak of any bird. Even though it doesn't look like it.

Hmmm, well I live in NZ and I have dated Kiwi Men. In my experience if they already have children, they arent looking to have anymore because its too expensive. More men here have their kids 50/50 so they dont have to pay child support and then I guess they get to have their kids 50% of the time too. Some Kiwi men aren't great at sharing their feelings very easily. Kiwi men are very careful with their money and I wouldn't use the term "financially generous" to describe any of them that I have dated really. They arent too great at planning ahead to make arrangements as most things kind of happen on the day.

Pakeha is 'foreigner' ie not Maori

My husband is half Kiwi, half Brit so no idea how that will help you.

I live in NZ and confirm that most Kiwi men I know are hard working, caring, family men. Just like most British men I know are. Some Brits are horrid just like some Kiwi men, and probably just like French, Spanish etc etc are.

I thought this was going to be about the test match that's on at the moment...

No one here knows this particular Kiwi bloke so we can’t read his mind. Maybe you should just ask him, OP. Don’t worry - she’ll be right.

I’ve lived in England and New Zealand. Some are idiots, some are lovely. Just like British men. I guess the majority of kiwi men are slightly more family oriented than British men - though some aren’t. It’s such a vague question and too many variables to give a precise answer

On that point Tim Southee is more versatile than Jimmy Anderson.

Completely the wrong side of the Tasman with that one.

Sux. Sux of one.

Ah, so used by the same sort of people who’d say you aren’t really British if you are black.

Very unpleasant.

That is the best contribution to this thread. Hands down. 😁

Don't be offended if he asks you if you want to sit on his dick

You can be offended if he asks you to sit on his duck.

Ahahahhaha love this

Im Kiwi, most (not all) kiwi men are not bad in the sack so give it a crack op!

I’m Kiwi (Ngāti Pākehā - I have no problem with that word and it does not mean “foreigner”).

After dating with —and sleeping with— men from all over the world I can confidently say Kiwi men are as varied and good/bad as men anywhere! Whether he’s flirting or not is down to your instincts OP.

@NotKevinTurvey no, Pakeha is not considered an unpleasant word. Although if you look at the literal translation it certainly looks as though it could be offensive, but it isn't. I consider myself Pakeha - it is just a commonly used, useful term to describe all non Maori in NZ

I once had a few dates with a lovely kiwi guy. The only difference with dating him and not a British guy is that he was just about to move back home which wasn't convenient for seeing more of each other.

He really was lovely though.

They are green and hairy, quite unlike potato men.😘

OP, this is the post to read. Note bullet points 4 and 6. Kiwi men in general don't do either (which is said to explain the particularly high suicide rate among men here.)

But pakeha is used for white people. I'm guessing you don't have issues with that.

British man: Pen
Kiwi man: Pin

British man: sweets
Kiwi man: lollies

British man: flip flop
Kiwi man: thong

British man: just turns left
Kiwi man: stops to give way to anyone turning right into the same road

British man: wraps up warm and goes to the pub on Christmas Day
Kiwi man: can't buy alcohol anywhere on Christmas Day so goes to the beach instead
