Why does it bother you that Aussie women are not always polite?
The idea that women, men or any of the other combinations of the alphabet soup group should be polite and respectful when a stranger/person outside of their known friend group attempts to break the ice, engage them in conversation or ask for a dance isn’t that big of an ask but to expect it?
My clumsy attempts as a teenager (including the rest of my single life) in trying to strike up a friendship with unknown girls had similar outcomes to what you described.
Disheartening for a young fella, I agree but only one side of the story.
I couldn’t know if the crude rejection was because they were nasty, sick of being hit on, already had a boyfriend, hated men, just wanted a night out with friends, the possibilities are endless.
I did find that a sincere apology for interrupting their night offered me a tiny fraction of dignity as I moved away, after all we are describing an unsolicited attempt to get to know them, rejection rates are always high and polite rejections are the rarity not the general rule.
