CULTURE: Europe: Drought... Australia: Man Drought: "Australia is facing a drought of men as continued migration to the northern hemispheres larger economies leaves behind a gender skew:

New figures show there were 20,000 fewer men than women aged 30-something in Australia last year, according to a report by accounting firm KPMG, reversing a long period in which there were more men.



The study, which uses data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, shows that in the 12 months to 2004 there was a surplus of women in every age group between 29 and 55.

The skew has had a remarkable effect on national culture:

'The man drought is leading to a shift in consumer culture; you have more women buying apartments, taking out finance loans; women are evolving their own single culture,' Mr Salt said.
