Australians Women Refuse to Wear Deodorants While Travelling, Survey Reveals
Many a traveller has some habits to be proud of while some which are pretty annoying to others. It is extremely difficult to generalise a group of people or a nation, for a matter of fact, in accordance with their travel habits. lastminute.com.au attempts to do such a thing in their travel Web site. Six thousand people were asked to be a part of a survey that made a note of the travelling habits of Australians. To be exact, the survey was designed to find out the habits which annoy people the most. News.com.au reports that the results are divided in two parts according to gender. There is a separate list for men and the other for women.
Australian Women are accused of having failed to respect the local culture of the country they visit. The disrespect shown to other culture by Australian women is voted as the top annoying habit with 51 per cent votes. The number 2 slot was reserved for what women often blamed for: taking too much time to get ready. Forty-two per cent people were extremely annoyed by the time Australian women would take while they travel. The number 3 most annoying habit is refusing to use deodorant. Thirty-one per cent of people found it quite annoying that Australian women would not prefer using deodorants while traveling.
Australian men, on the other hand, are accused most for their habit of taking too much time to get ready with 52 per cent votes. This comes as a surprise as, throughout the ages, women are blamed for taking too much time to be ready for the occasion. However, this survey reveals that men can be even more annoying for the same habit. Australian men too are blamed for failing to respect the local culture with 42 per cent votes. The third most annoying habit of Australian men is speaking too loudly with 28 per cent votes.
