What's your opinion of the new phenomenon and trend of passport bros?

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Basically, it's the idea since domestic women suck for dating and marriage, men must go internationally to find a better woman.

[JamesDiaz11]

I don't know how widespread this is, aside from a few vocal youtube personalities. Personally, I entertained the idea, since I work remotely, have a huge amount of money in savings, and don't have anything keeping me to the US- even comfort. However, I met a girl that stopped me since she was all I wanted in a woman.

Nevertheless, I endorse this idea, and believe that if it were done more often then American women would be incentivized to change. Sure, they'd shame the guys for the first few years, but then when the number grew, it become something you see everywhere, they would start to panic and eventually adjust.

[WindAtMyBack]

I've never heard that term before, but there is nothing new about this. It's been going on my entire life for sure, and probably far longer. Before the Internet and online dating sites/apps, people either went there to find someone, or they used magazines for that purpose. The magazines were full of pictures with short profiles and contact info.

People always think the grass is greener on the other side. In some cases it really is, depending on what kind of grass you like. But it has never been a high percentage of the population doing it, either because they can't afford it, or it's a very big step to take, or they just don't want to.

[StephiC]

It's not new. It's been going on for thousands of years from all races. It's just that no group of men have ever been so vocal or proud of it.

You can't compete with other men to get what you want in your own community so have to travel thousands of miles to another one to try and compete with more disadvantaged men.

But for some reason a group of men think that's something to brag about, on the Internet, where your face and story will forever be recorded. Then record yourself being disrespected by the other community of women... like why not just tattoo 'L' on your forehead. Those poor men.

[PainusNdeeAnus]

It’s not our fault all the good feminine submissive women are married

[Rosexøxø]

Is “passport bros” a thing? Or is this asking your bros about passports

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

It's actually a thing. These men actually believe better women in other countries are better than their own women domestically.

[Rosexøxø]

Are all countrymen doing this or just one?

A lot of my good guy friends are from other countries. They don’t have issues with me.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Obviously not all. It's just Hocus Pocus and deflecting blame at women domestically for their own relationship failures.

To think wicked deceptive women don't exist and that it's a domestic problem only is to lie to one's self.

Those women actually in foreign countries because of their conditions are more prone to be deceptive and use some sucka for their money.

[Rosexøxø]

Yeah, I seen that on some show for dating, or whatever- my bro showed it to me, actually.

Some white, sweaty, husky male tried to get a lady from the Philippines- like dating, and I think they just both conned each other. 🤷‍♀️

I don’t remember, but my bro and I were laughing and in disbelief at the same time.

Crazy world.

[ObscuredBeyond]

I'd give it a try if I could afford airfares and have a travel budget. When my best odds locally are single moms working at Subway, I get curious what the outside world has to offer. One or two kids from having once been young and stupid is forgivable, if she's truly gotten wiser. But I prefer no drugs or tobacco. I prefer someone organized. She doesn't have to be a total sex pistol, provided she isn't a dead fish.

Just make it manageable. Is that asking too much? To find just one that isn't a basket case or a hot mess, but still has a good heart?

All I seem to find are crazies and train wrecks, which is why I rarely give anyone a chance anymore. I see what's coming a mile away now, and already, I'm thinking: "That one's a big no."

Sadly, it's the same story everywhere else.

[Grond21]

I think it's a silly name for a very valid phenomenon. In many countries in the west right now feminism has destroyed all expectations and standards for women while simultaneously asking men to keep all traditional duties while letting go of all traditional roles. Men are naturally chafing under this hypocrisy and going to find women they will work well with and who will be able to build a successful relationship. As those are hard to find in Western countries they go to more family oriented cultures where such women are in abundance. This has the potential to significantly shift cultures over the next two generations.

[LiamJHayden]

Is this considered a new thing? I have an neighbor who pretty much imports a new bride every five or so years. He is on at least his fourth. They are usually much younger than he is. And so far have all divorced him shortly after they obtain citizenship.

[pethouse]

Nah uh dude Fr?

[LiamJHayden]

@pethouse Yup. All have been Eastern European. I did not realize his deal till he told me. He does not seem to care that they leave, because he just gets a newer model.

[pethouse]

He does prenups right?

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

Seems good for men that want to bang and get foreign women pregnant and then disappear. That's not a new thing, to be honest.

My father for whatever reason went to Germany right after the reunification and for whatever reason got a young nurse pregnant. He then just f*cked off and never heard of her or the child again.

He was a proto-passport bro.

[inhua]

why should this bother anyone that men want to find love abroad?

seems like anything a man does these days gets scrutinized and gaslighted no matter what. always shaming his sexuality and choices in expanding his pool of options.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Well, because it's BS. Each country has several women (millions to pick from) to actually think good women are only found in some other country is being delusional.

[inhua]

people don't have to stay in one location to find love. they're allowed to relocate to wherever they want. why should someone have to limit their dating pool to just a specific location? if a man thinks there are good women elsewhere he should be allowed to go look for them.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Anyone can do what they want, but the reality doesn't change.

Good and bad women isn't determined by country you are in.

[inhua]

no but countries dictate culture and there's nothing wrong with finding someone who shares your culture and values even if that means travelling elsewhere. it's not about good vs bad

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Culture doesn't determine the character and heart of a person.

[msc545]

To a large extent, it does.

[RealMarek]

It has its own set of risks depending on the culture a man goes to, but I think it is an option worth considering for those who can’t find a suitable match domestically.

[DubiousIntentions]

Yes, but the reason they are interesting in American men is so that they can get to the US legally. And to have a sugar daddy when they land.

[Tiger288]

American women do the same things as gold digger

[FilmGuy93]

The women abroad are cheaper, but I don’t think the passport bros quite realize that women are going to be women, no matter where you go in the world.

[Anonymous]

Everyone is trying to escape western women but the reality is that you need to have bank to do this. I’d probably do the same.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

You actually believe women in other countries aren't bad? 😂

[msc545]

Depends on the country, but generally they are not AS bad.

[Opinion Owner]

Bad but not as bad. I am currently raising a son that I don’t even know is mine or not. This was the best case scenario for a western man today.

[msc545]

That is really bad. Maybe get a DNA paternity test?

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

y'all find out the hard way. LOL

[Adam1978]

It's hell of an expensive dating system. It's better to date the local immigrants.

[Qdbrown]

It's a great idea if you want to stay in her country. If you bring her back to the West, she will get corrupted and be worthless. It would defeat the purpose.

[Anonymous]

I agree with them to a certain extent. Sometimes, it's entirely possible for the majority of available women IN YOUR AREA to be trash, snobs, elitists, and whatever. So traveling seems fair but I'd rather travel within my country in search of someone... not overseas. Personal preference.

[Justneedtokno]

Honestly, this is not new at all. I think it’s just become more popular over the years

[blissinanarchy1]

They call it passport predator. I’d like to find a more conservative girl from a foreign country, but not a third world country. Then that’ll just be taking advantage of her.

[BJP21]

The only time I've heard of this is the mail order brides. Aka "legalized human trafficking"

The state I live in is pretty diverse there are plenty of flavors of women to choose from.

[Anonymous]

It's not new, my dad knew guys in the 80's who did the same and had Thai brides

Eastern Europe is hot now as well but I don't know if the conflict has restoked things from the era of the collapse of communism on that score

[pethouse]

I think shorter men are doing it the most because social media makes them believe that most American women want 6ft+ guys so they go to a country where the male population has a shorter male average. Ik I’ve considered it once.

[Anonymous]

I suspect it works best when you are settled in the other country, find a woman and stay in that country.

Bringing her 'home' risks local infection and cutting her off from her family.

[Ms_Facesitter]

Kind of sucks for the good women locally who do treat you well, but if they don't suffice either, off you go then.

[bolverk]

This is nothing new, men have been travelling abroad looking for a wife for decades, it just that now there is social media to shine a floodlight on it,
