abstract	Bloke is a slang term for a man. Popular in the United Kingdom and South Africa, widely used in Australia and New Zealand, also used in the United States. A typical example of use would be "Jim is a good bloke." The earliest known usage is from the early 19th century, derived from an earlier slang term used in the 18th century. There is considerable discussion among experts about the words ultimate origin with multiple theories. The term gained in use during the 20th century and influenced Australian culture with a popular work by C. J. Dennis called "The Songs of a Sentimental Bloke". The term was used to reinforce a populist image of the female Prime Minister of Australia Julia Gillard, whose partner (Tim Mathieson) was called "First Bloke".
