The "Digger" was a well respected figure on the battlefield. He was known to get in and get the job done, no blowing of horns or self congratulations afterwards, the job just had to be done...
The Australian ingenuity came about from standing on our own 2 feet and making something we wanted, again teh job just had to be done...
Aussie humor I think is unique in that we made jokes of ourselves before anyone else.... Yes even us Tasmanians with our sisters for wives and 2 heads LOL...
Disagreements were short, hard and normally painful but once it was sorted out there was no "come back", retribution or whining...
So yes shifu, "us" male Aussies are loosing what was making us uniquely Australian in my eyes... PC, social media, 15 seconds of fame, boys acting more like girls and a lot of other reason or excuses, but in the end the Ocker is becoming a rare breed.
