The "Average Aussie" is a SHE!

[DrLeftover]

the "average Australian" is evidently a 37-year-old woman, married with two children, who lives in a three-bedroom house in a suburb of one of Australia's capital cities. Its average Australian is a wholly different character from the imagined Australian.

Any attempt to define a nation by one person is bound to be met by scepticism. But in a country where the prime minister, the governor-general and the richest person - the mining magnate, Gina Rinehart - are all women, the latest data confirms what demographers have long known: Australia is becoming a more female country.

Wouldn't be the first time the stereotype doesn't reflect the average.

Slightly old statistics about the world. But it's interesting to think about...
