...more perverted than other western countries? If so, why do you think so. If not, who is?

Penal, or penile?

I don't think "perverted" is the right term. More like "uninhibited". And that's way better than many American's "sex is only for procreation and shouldn't feel good" attitude.

Aussies, I was under the impression that you have full frontal nudity on TV and legalized prostitution in some/most cities?

I'm so proud. Our Aussie members just had their first Aussie poll. And it was so...*Australian*.

Aussies remind me of Texans. Tough, pragmatic, dry sense of humor, worst habits are drinking and cussing too much.
