Classifying the "old country" as POMEland,  compulsory voting,
incomprehandible local termanology for everything, female franchise ,
public nudity, and bathing in the ocean during daylight hrs are just the
start of a long list of "divergences".

A recent grab from TV has Will Smith approach a voluptuous woman
sitting at a bar in a swimsuit. Will tells her to "cover up"
because there are "peole... AUSTRALIAN people" present that might be 
offended.
The joke is of course Australians have a very non-Egnlish attitude
to public nudity.

From the early days in the colonies it was illegal to bathe in the ocean
during daylight hours because it offended the public decency.  Back home.

But Australians quickly developed an orientation for disregarding any
damn POME law that didnt make sense and did so en masse.

Not only did they proceed to bath in the ocean every day and any damn time
they felt like it they also liked to dispense with the neck-to-knee swimming
costumes the English favored. Eventually leading to the "universal"
adoption of the biniki and budgeesmuggler.

The USA has "free" beaches too, and I've never seen another area the 
visitors kept so clean.
