A lot of bros from the west says they want a traditional wife but they themselves are not ready to be the traditional husbands. If you expect a woman to split the bills with you then you gotta help in the household chores.
Men have no problem being traditional and paying all the bills if he gets all the benefits. They also dont have problems being modern and doing house chores. Most men are single and do their own chores. The problem is women want men to pay all the bills and court them traditionally but want to be modern themselves and if they are working want to keep their money for themselves. The old his money is my money and my money is my money thing doesnt work anymore. Women want men to take half the domestic role but then keep all the financial burden
but men are still the ones who have to stick to their roles? Come on loverboy🙄 I'm a passport bro in Africa. I'll do housework when my gf also goes downstairs if someone breaks in the house. lol...also I make 5 times what my gf makes and we simply put in 100% each. we pool our money. I dont work because I'm retired early and she works nearly full time but I still do not cook or clean. we hired a live in maid but she pays for it because she insists on working when she could choose to stay home. only in America are 2 incomes necessary. when the guy is making more money overseas and he is upgrading the woman then she is going to have to put in more chores. I'll be damned if I'm going to upgrade her life and yet I'm cooking and cleaning. not going to happen. if she don't like it she can get out of my house. but guess what! she comes home from work..cooks my food and caters to me out of love and appreciation to how I bettered her life.
None of the women in Asia are splitting the bills with a western man. The woman and her family expect you to take care of her. If you want a traditional wife, better be prepared to be a traditional husband/father.
Depends what you mean by taking care. Also depends on what social class you date. Most of the guys i met who dated helped out, but it was usually not more than helping when healthcare bill dropped etc. If you are an old dude dating young, its usually a poor family and that might be different, and you would have to take care of more. But there are now more men who are in their 30s and 40s going to date women abroad than ever and they dont date the really poor girls, but moreso the more well educated women and well established families. Which is a much better fit. I am married to a filipina for a little over 4 years, and she works as a nurse.
I dated a Thai woman from a lower-middle class family. She always offered to pay for her own things. Again this really depends on the rest of the relationship dynamics. If you are 20-30-40 years older than her and much less attractive than her - you will need to make up for that in the way that you treat her, and take care of her. She always offered to split the bill / buy her own things and I almost never allowed her to that.
I am Vietnamese married to an American man. We met in college here in American. We've been married for 10 years. Let me tell you interracial marriage takes a lot a lot of work. If you going for Asian women because you think they are submissive, you're in for a huge surprise! Good luck!
I think it's expected and most men are ready to make sacrifice and compromise. Western women don't do that, it's always : "I want, I need, I deserved" Social medias is a glipse on the female psyche, a lot of video promoting that mentality of "I,I and I".
The reason why a lot of American men end up marrying Asian women has less to do with "submission" and more to do with the fact that most Asian women don't hate men. I lived in China and I agree with you-Asian women are not submissive (and they shouldn't be submissive). A lot of men think they want a "traditional, submissive, woman" and after marriage they realize they just want a woman who doesn't hate men.
I'm an American man who married a Japanese woman. I can confirm without any shred of doubt that Asian women are most certainly NOT submissive. Don't buy into the stereotypes.
@@chongtay-voviet glad you said it. I was with a Korean for 13 years. awful. with a Filipino for 11 years. awful. and many Asian women in between my whole life. They difficult. jealous. clean freak. and just gets more neurotic over time. never again lol.. I went and got me a African woman.from Cote D'ivoire..omg..like night and day the level of bs i constantly had to put up with asian women. anyway..no offense. I feel sorry for your husband🤣🤣 I'm joking. you sound self aware
As an asian man who grew up in Vietnam and later immigrated to the U.S., I was baffled at the masculinity movement that infected the passport bros’s minds that made them going to Southeast Asia countries to find their trad wives, and I’m here like😂 man you bois are crazy… they don’t know what they are getting into. Lmao.
If Asian women are happy with them and you don't care about them, why are you so offended? 😅😅😅 And If they don't need men or despise men then why are they intimidated and offended by passport bros who are serving their purpose
I ve meet asian women in the west and they re not submisive at all....educated,outspoken,well off and used to have the men at their feet. Spoiled princess treatment is what asian men give them...i ve seen it.
Highly educated Filipina here in USA, married a white American man and yet I was a victim of domestic abuse(in America). I don’t know where to put this thought in the subject of passport bros. I’m putting this out there hoping that is one angle of inter-racial partnership could turn sideways.
I think it's bc these "passport bros" see women in these countries as a commodity instead of humans bc they exploit economic differences since they cant find the love in the US
You should warn all your friends against dating such men. They look at you like a hunter does game, trust me. Its all about f3tishes for them. If youre smart date a good Asian man.
Sorry to hear that. I wouldn’t say this is any relevant to passport Bros. There’s abusive men in every country, it’s not even clear to me that There’s more abusive men in one country versus another one. However I have heard Russia they don’t mess around.
I met a few professional women when I was in Thailand - business owners, bank workers, etc. These women who make enough to care for themselves and their family comfortably were not interested in ‘passport bros’ at all. Not that they wouldn’t entertain a foreign boyfriend, but I think they can tell the difference between a guy who is genuinely well-off and a guy who *has* to move to an economically depressed part of the world because they can’t stay afloat in their home country. For women near the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder, one of these guys would be a great find, at least temporarily; I mean, if a relationship is purely transactional then you’d best perceive it as fleeting. But as long as it’s all consenting adults, then it’s none of my concern.
It goes to show women only want men if they can use them for their resources. Women date up. Men date down. So either way men are better than women and in fact are more moral and genuine than women.
It used to be women married guys who were starting out and they’d build wealth together. I’ve had a few dates recently in Australia and all of them wanted a guy who had already built wealth and were willing to share it.
I found the exact opposite to be true. Women in those countries who focus on careers and education tend to not look for a partner until they're over 25, and in those cultures women that age are considered "too old." Hence, a lot of educated, professional women over there end up with Western men. I know two guys, one in Vietnam and one in Taiwan, who married educated women. As for needing to move overseas to afford things...huh? Who cares? I mean, if a guy from Dubai who "only" made $400,000/year moved to Kansas, do you think the women there would say "oh, back home, that $400,000 salary isn't that much."? No. The money is green regardless.
my experience with professional thai women who wanted to date western men generally share the same preference of not wanting to date thai men. they all stated the same reasons, i.e. thai men cheats, don't respect thai women, and too chauvinistic
I lived in Thailand for a long time. You're right but the career women you mention are usually much more superficial and only interested in career and money, moreso than the girls that come from nothing.
Southeast Asian here. Passport bros do not seem to realize that the type of women interested in them are usually the ones who are less educated and more materialistic than the average Southeast Asian woman. Sure, these women are traditional wives in the sense that they will cook and clean up for you but passport bros need to also be aware that these women look at foreigners as giant walking ATMs. Women who have careers or are educated tend to not want to do anything with foreign men as it is usually looked down upon by society.
@Ronydoo-yv2hs well it does matter if they met the foreign women back at their home country or working abroad in your country. Foreign women working abroad are already relatively well-off compared to the average local workers. And if you do have friends who married women by meeting them from southeast aisa, I wonder how many of their wives actually do work or have careers.
@Anna-bo5dk They work. Just like every hard-working man out here. They are not betas who are poor. They are average men being men, and they got good women.
They haven’t talked much about the massive cost of living difference. In Thailand the US dollar goes about three times as far. My share of a four day stay at a beach bungalow on a Thai island, with two friends and with fresh cooked amazing food, was $75. A nomad making $40K/year can live a six figure lifestyle in another country. So of course the women there are going to like him more. If he was broke there many of those traditional women would ignore them. And they didn’t say if the educated women there made a good living on their own. Personally I think what consenting adults do with each other is their own business but I think the economic factors are a bigger influence.
American women are uncompetitive in the global market. They're loud, stupid, obese, selfish and incredibly childish. Literally everywhere else on earth has better women. These men are simply doing something logical.
This sounds extremely appealing. My ass is working 60 hours a week. I don't care if there is cute asian women or not. Living freely without constantly guarding every penny sounds like a dream.
I know an old white man who married a Vietnamese lady. He got her an Australian citizenship and she started migrating her family over. After that she took all his savings and house, moved her family in there and divorced him. Not long after she married her Vietnamese boyfriend and got him an Australian citizenship. That old to this day thought she loved him because she was always so sweet to him.
@@SEATravels yeah clearly 😂.Every time i heard of this situation, i assume these men are too broken to see the truth. There is no way in hell that there's absolutely no signs.
@@williamkreth it does happen the question is IS THERE A NUMBER of these "cross cultural marriages" all ending the same way. No that wouldn't be fair to say.
Women tend to date "up," valuing higher status or finances, while men often date "down," prioritizing youth and compatibility. Western women, having achieved equality in education and income, no longer see average or below-average men as viable options. In Southeast Asia, the difference isn’t about being more feminine but about economic disparity. As SEA women gain equality, their preferences will likely mirror those in the West. The "passport bro" strategy thrives on financial advantage, but in developed nations like Singapore, where women are highly educated and independent, it wouldn’t work the same way.
I often genuinely question what goes through the minds of young Filipino men. Imagine seeing girls your age-girls you should be dating-end up with some fat, ugly white guy, all because of a shitty spawn point in life. 😢
Depends also on population men vs women in that country, like china has more male, russia has more female, thai has female and lady boy all wanna find men
Thats absolutely untrue, it has more to do with culture and societal expectations. Japan, Chinq and South Korea are extremely wealthy countries, yet it's very easy to date there, because women aren't asking for the moon, hence, at best, it's a cultural disparity that is only magnified by ethe economic gap, not the other way around.
Women are absolutely fine with dating men who earn less so long as the man behaves like an equal partner, something these men in the documentary are clearly not interested in. That means the man actually has to do half of the household and child rearing labor and he has to be a good person who behaves like an adult. These men would actually have to be interesting, good people who want to treat a woman as an equal. Women DO date men like that who earn less. But if you bring nothing to the table as a person but your paycheck, than your paycheck better be big, yes.
The delusion these guys have that their wealth-gap isn't the reason for their new founded success but rather is a 'cultural issue'. They won't be finding much success in the richer countries in Asia like Singapore, Hong Kong and South Korea. They are intentionally focusing their efforts on low-income countries in order to leverage this advantage.
Obviously Thailand Brazil Peru and Columbia are the main destinations. Plus the women are beautiful. But also cost of living there is much better than the USA
@@bikefax8177Colombia holds the record for highest percentage of kids born to single mothers, 84%! So tell me exactly what is traditional there? 😅 The men in Colombia don’t like those “traditional” women? somebody who has to gain anything from you will tell you anything you want to hear.
As an educated, professional woman in the Philippines, I feel insulted when a foreign guy says they're looking for a life partner but promotes our local women on social media like a piece of merch, then showing a video of the red light district, and putting a caption of "typical Filipinas".
There was one guy online bragging about how he had three different girlfriends there who would do everything for him: laundry, food, sex, cleaning, and errands. He lied to all three of them and thought he hit the jackpot.
This might surprise many, but majority of Asian women still prefer local men due to language and cultural familiarity. Only a small number of these women, often the lesser financially stable ones, are opting for foreign men. Also, no one is wondering what local Asian men think about this.
That's just what they tell you lol. Can't tell you how many Korean girls would cheat on their boyfriends with me in Itaewon or Hongdae. Plenty of them are down to just see what it's like.
a lot of it comes from fetishization and perpetuation of stereotypes if you look at media, asian men are hardly every given a voice for themselves, and whenever they do have a role, its always someone who's meek, nerdy, etc. they don't ask the local asian men because it doesn't fit the narrative
Smart if you're stacking your money to buy assets, instead of paying $1500 rent to share an apartment with 3 other people in a metropolis in usa compared to $250 for luxury condo in bangkok (sauna, co-working area, fitness center, pool) you can maintain a lifestyle of freedom, lots of people in america are forced to work to keep up with car payments, and their expensive rent, and neglect buying assets
These girls are also smart. I'm from Iran, had two male friends who went back to Iran to find a traditional wife. They got married there, brought girls back to United States only for the new wives to go to school/get degrees and education+ some plastic surgery and divorce them and now get money from divorce settelement and find new life in USA and even new relationships! Some are even known to have Bfs in Iran and plan on the whole passport Husband thing. So thay the female gets married to a sucker from USA, takes them to US and once the divorce and citizenship papers are done and overshe will apply for passport for her BF whom she never brokeup with and was in contact the whole time.
My Mom is a former mail order that met my Dad through a news paper ad in Mexico advertising American men. Seeing passport bros trying to find love is honestly perfectly fine with me. Just don't be surprised if your new wife or girlfriend leaves you. Most of the women that go for foreign men are mostly interested in the financial benefits they can bring. My Mom was the same and I've met other kids or well adults now like me. That were the results of being children of relationships like this and it usually goes two ways. Happy ending everyone is a happy family. Mom stays home, Dad provides for everyone needs and the kids are usually happy. My ending is when Dad becomes broke and the happy rose petal glasses are taken off and Mom realizes that she didn't sign up to raise an adult baby.
Ya when there 50 plus years old and there balls are sagging other knees, most women aren’t going to find that attractive. Younger guys 45 and under who are in even decent shape will have no problem. And not all others girls want to move to the west. Most women I talked to in Philippines don’t want to move to America because they see how sick is has become.
That dating expert is really out of touch with reality. If women are not marrying for financial security anymore but for love, why are they not marrying poorer guys in masses?
From various comments online, it seems the poor guys are just as terrible, cheating, lazy and just have a general lack of personal development or ambition
Women from more developed countries don’t have to settle for men they don’t want. They have the opportunity to live a fulfilling life without settling. That’s a beautiful thing because it wasn’t always like that here when things were more “traditional”.
A sign of maturity is to accept that not everyone wants to live the same lifestyle as you do. Some women want a career life, others want a stay at home family life. Neither is good or bad.
Its actually bad if you magnify it. Women being in careers is fine at small scale, but were hitting a threshold/tipping point in American society where its now crumbling it.
I met a passport bro in a hostel in Southeast Asia this summer. Well, he said that he liked Asian ladies because they were more submissive, and acted coquettish as they are more financially dependant to men...that was so uncool when I am Asian female myself.
They're all broke losers here, and when they say they're looking for a submissive woman, where exactly is their frame of reference? They probably know 3 women here and one of them is their mother. Bottom line, if your best attribute is that you come from a rich country, then you're an even a bigger bum than I thought. If a passport bro wants to bring a female here and keep her essentially bonded and immiserated, then our Government should be looking out for that if they don't already. They leave here because they are getting absolutely swallowed by everyone. As a Portuguese American, I live half the year in the US and the rest in Portugal, and I would never use my citizenship or finances to manipulate anyone with less than me. They operate under the guise of providing someone less fortunate a better life, but it's a cloak for control and manipulation, especially sexual.
A lot of them think that way because they found success is dating & bedding such women. White privilege is very real in Asia. They wouldn't have dated for long nor married one to know that's not always how things turn out.
That's the problem : the stereotypes. Travelling to find love based on stereotypes is never good cause reality is different. As an asian woman myself, I can relate... it's is frustrating
@@Anaïswab Sure, but stereotypes are generalizations. In general, East Asian women are more submissive than white, latin, or black women. We EA's don't think that. But polling white men who have been in multiple interracial relationships say different. Besides, do we not generalize black, white, and asian men? If these men want to find wives in Asia so be it. That's better than the sex tourists who are _stereotypically_ white lol. This is just like the asian men who call out asian women who only date white men. We get so bent out of shape about that, but this chat is filled with women doing the same about passport bros.
I'm Thai-American and have been in Thailand for the past few years. I see so many foreigners come here for some kind of romantic relationship in mind and they don't get much further than the sex industry. I think finding a traditional woman would be difficult anywhere in this country nowadays.
Yup. They don’t really put in the effort, so once they’re off the plane they go to the first woman that says “hi handsome man”. Dude, you’re 60 and fat, she’s advertising
I would say that the "traditional women" they're looking for in other countries EXPECT the man to pay for the vast majority (if not everything) regarding their life together. Thus, the only financially viable option for the passport bro to live very comfortably is to live in the country of his girlfriend/wife, because his earnings go further there.
Not really. Many women in these countries are independent and usually have own careers. We just believe in traditional roles. Am Malaysian married to Portuguese. I work and at the moment earn high income just like my husband but at the same time believe in traditional roles. We share everything and both contribute. That's very common in my country.
And in the U.S. the women expect the man to pay but her expectations are non existent. Men have no problem with their role, so they’re going somewhere to get something in return
@@Mrtickleberries Really? Out of all the Gen Z and Millennial couples I know, none of them are like that. But maybe it's because my friend circle is middle class and every woman within it earns close to or way above median income.
@@rebeccachua61 That's great! But when I said "traditional" I meant a wife who stays at home to raise the kids, takes care of everything for the holidays, cooks, cleans, etc., and manages the house while her husband works. That's the image I had in my head when I used the word.
Speaking as a SEAsian woman here and I do agree there are some Western-Asian relationships that are really genuine and loving. But for the majority... I feel sad for the American men who think they can better connect with Asian women because of shared traditional views. I wonder, are you looking for the woman to be the only one holding up their end of traditional roles or will you really also fulfil your traditional role? Sure you'll find an Asian woman who'll like you, maybe even love you, but that's only as long as you can actually also carry out your traditional role as a man, aka you must be able to provide and provide well. Why do you think many Asian women get with Western men instead of local men? It's because they see that the Western men can, for now at least, better financially provide for their family because they earn more. Once you cannot bring sufficient money home and be a traditional man and provide security, the lady will lose respect, think you're not man enough and move on. On another related note... I am sure there are men who genuinely want to find love but we cannot deny the underlyihg racist tones behind all these. There IS the stereotype of Asian women being more subservient, and it's because of this that the American men thought to come to SEA in the first place. But Asian women are traditional in that they are practical. You want me to be a traditional housewife and all? You better provide! The amount of affection shown is equivalent to the amount of financial security provided.
I agree with your point questioning if these Western men are really prepared to fulfill their traditional roles - and not just their traditional role as defined by where they are from, but the traditional role of a man in the eyes of the Asia culture where the traditional wife is from as well. Else, there will be issues. If he straight up disagrees, and even resents, his wife's culture gender roles, then its like he is picking and choosing part of the tradition he likes and trying to discard what he doesn't like. This will not work because you can't just do that when they are ingrained in the wife's upbringing since it's where she grew up. Her culture is what made her traditional in his eyes. Say the Western man wants to fulfill his traditional duties as a man in a marriage/family setting - but that's only according to his country's definition of traditional male role. There is also the traditional male role in that specific Asian culture that the wife will be keen to see him fulfill (maybe not all and not strictly - but it could potentially lead to disagreement, dispute, and dissolution of marriage in the end if he doesn't care much for them).
You maybe South Asian but you have the corrupt mindset of a liberal feminist white woman in the West. Therefore your opinions are one sided and you no longer relate nor know what these women back home want. Nice try though.
Children statistically perform much better in life with single fathers than single mothers. Upright, devoted men are critical to the success of the family unit writ large. A large portion of women in America voted for Kamala Harris because the belief that they would lose access to deleting their own imaginary babies. Why should any family-oriented man fish in such a toxic dating pool?
„I want a traditional wife.“ Translation: „I want a woman who does all the housework and waits for me with dinner ready every evening dressed like a supermodel while working as well in order to contribute to household income and not demanding anything from me.“
Jealous of men going to foreign countries , you should be, arrogant and disrespectful American women DON"T deserve any men. And I got my wife from Japan, they have MORE money than Americans, and are MORE educated!! Same with South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore. They all love western men and have more money and education than Americans. So, you need to stop harassing Phillippines and Thailand!!
The key to any happy relationship - whether with someone from your own culture or another - is mutual respect and harmony. Recognizing that you are on the same team and not in competition avoids conflict. Be happy for anyone who finds a loving relationship!
Pleeease, those men aren't looking for "mutual respect and harmony", they're looking for servants with benefits; LOVE wants the other to fulfill his AND her potential; LOVE sees & celebrates the WHOLE person, LOVE doesn't ask.. "What can you do for ME ?," but "How can I help you become the best version of yourself?".
It is dating in a comunal society versus and individualistic society. Many Americans are so competitive and individualist that they can’t build with their partner as a true team
I don't have anything against seeking a traditional relationship but these guys saying that people in the west don't value them as much as southeast Asia, of course that is the case? The US passport, the US dollar, of course you have a higher position in this society than in the west? Let's be fair, traditional wives especially value a stable financial situation because they will have to depend on you to make money. Being a wealthy foreigner that earns USD definitely increases the chances of starting a relationship. You are in a better position than the a lot of the men of these southeast Asian countries.
sure but thats a normal expectation from normal women and its healthy to want a stable life. and thats what these eastern women can provide and give. but western women have stability and can have it with a regular average joe but what they want in a man is unrealistic and unhealthy. plus western women have become extremely liberated then becoming more conservative. they are destroying families and the lifes of children because of western believes. divorce rates in america initiated by women is about 80 percent. no hope for that.
Right, so if the locals can't cut it, and if what these prospective suitors are doing in their current country isn't working for them... this effectively solves for the current mismatch. Go where your treated best no? Shouldn't everyone? And that includes these women too, they should go wherever THEY feel they're treated best, wherever THEY feel their interests, future hopes, and core values are best suited, right? Everyone is just trying to do the best they can.
What about femininity and family values above self. Sorry, but those values are still in abundance outside the matrix. To those men who can, get what you need b4 modern feminism takes a hold in those countries too.
@@RyanWildstarthe women get to have a passport beta simp who will pay for her and her family's bills and she also gets to see her alpha "ex" local guy to satisfy her other needs.
@@RyanWildstarcorrect but just remember you’re nothing but $$ and strong passport and social status to them. If you fail at providing that get ready to be kicked to the curb.
Something this basically balanced report ignored is the seemingly LARGE number of "bros" who are OLD. The interviewees were mostly young men. But what I see are lots of guys in 60s or older looking for 20-30 something, subservient women.
I disagree, there’s a difference between a passport bro and a old man looking for young girls, that has been around forever. But times have changed and now the young guys are all in on it coz all the woman in their area are chasing the top 5% of all men, they aren’t interested in anyone else leaving all the younger guys out alone.
The older guys have pension and Social Security checks. That is part of the reason. Another part of the reason is the older guys are much more likely to be happy settled down. I got this information from my Asian penpals. I’m a an American guy in my 60s. To most American women, I am invisible here. I really don’t have that much choice if I don’t want to die alone.
They want "traditional" but I don't see them hitting up conservative, traditional women in the U.S. who can't find a match because they don't want sex on the first date.
Because they are almost non-existent...no Godly man wants first dt frnction..but Godly mn are looked down upon in society. I do agree that many men are hypcrites and do z1na though..But I am a muslim and we have traditional relationships..its prohibited for us to look at or tch wmn other than our wives..our wmn also cover the most so....
and this is the hypocrisy of men and those passport bros. They are sleeping around with those asian women and then if lucky find a asian woman to finally seattle down.
I’m not a passport bro, but I can see why people are drawn to living abroad. For me, moving to the Philippines has been more about embracing a simpler, healthier lifestyle and finding happiness in the culture, nature, and slower pace of life. It’s not about running away from something-it’s about running toward a more fulfilling way of living.
The main problem i have that these men are specifically doing this to get a "traditional wife" not immersing with the culture and generally love the people and so want to married within it.
Many lower income women will use the guy as a passport to the western world. Give it six months to a year and bye bye. I loved the comment of the one guy saying they were looking for more feminine women. He means a woman he can keep trapped in a relationship because of economic circumstances.
That's true for a man wanting to bring a female back to his country. However, that's not the definition of a Passport Bro. PPB's are men who've moved to another country or in the process. Outside of that criteria (like 90-Day Fiance), they're not a Passport Bro
Or it just might mean that he prefers more feminine women. I personally find butch or aggressive women a huge turn-off, so it's no surprise that my wife of 20 years is a very feminine women - who I met in my home city.
At the end of the day no 1 is begging women to be with yall thats y u want to see them fail soo bad if I can have them no 1 can ,so u don't want them and u Don want them to be happy pick 1 and leave men alone plz,coz man have left yall long ago yet u stay talking like someone is listening
if you are smart you can have her for 3 years until she gets permanent status in the west. But of you are smarter you will never ever bring get back to a western country. stay over there.
Just FYI: Not every Filipino woman wants to be a traditional wife. But have empathy for impoverished women who have to subscribe to these gender roles by dating "passport bros" who also look for "traditional" subservient women. It's their way out of poverty.
What about Filipina who doesn't want to be a traditional wife while the man provides but have the audacity to be jealous when the man hires an older maid who would perform the traditional roles of cleaning and cooking?
Its changing now more women are being educated and are in the work force soon a lot of them would not marry foreigners as a safety net for financial burden.
Just FYI not every western guy dating in the philippines is traditional. Most guys coming are somewhere in between. They are most likely looking for an educated filipina, and these men are also not old.
Bs, many Viet girls won't spend night or sex before marriage. Not that it bothered me. And I married one. But also know many others who no sex til married.
It is long gone, here jn the philippines most only marry after years of dating then if unplanned pregnancy happens they will marry then before giving birth or after giving birth.. And Teenage pregnancy rate is going up its crazy.
Traditional realtionship: You have to introduce yourself to the father first who doesn`t just wanna see your bank account, but also you being a good person. Wonder how many of them would pass that test.
leah referring to western or non asian women as not “real women” is abbbsolutely insane to me as a woman. i could never form my mouth to call any other group of women less than a woman because of the way they choose to navigate THEIR life and THEIR relationships. women are not and SHOULD not be a monolith.
Its towards western, and she's not far off. Most here are masculine, she looks and acts pure feminine sooooo...yeah, real women. Edit: also XX, didn't think I have to say this, but its 2024.
Given that the subject is to do with 'passport bros' shows its not just a few men but a whole movement of men, same like the feminist movement in the west. If the women in the west weren't so selfish, arrogant, ego driven looking for the 666 and being entitled to believe they deserve everything just because.. maybe we wouldn't have a 'feminist movement' and 'passport bros'. As an englishman living in Asia, I love my country, but for how it used to be with no social media and everyone can be more satisfied with normal ways.. but yet here we are.
It’s funny cause all these guys keep saying “traditional” about the women but what does that even mean? What do they really know about the “traditions” of Thailand? Seems like they just insert “traditional” as a stand-in for favorable power imbalance or overall status. And that is what it is… I get why many guys would find that appealing but they gotta drop the “traditional” term. Just total bs.
Just to be clear, I don’t think all expats are… I’m talking about guys who turn it into their whole identity, appear in content like this and use terms like traditional.
A soft loving warm hearted women who isn't combative or argumentative and allows him to do what he needs to do to provide. Go to work do the driving fix things make things care and support and mentor. Good luck in the west
@reneemcdowell2848 when men would give up their bodies to provide for their wife and children so they could enjoy the fruits of his labour and work into retirement because it was a duty and not complain about it. Even modern women in the west want a man to provide for them which is contradictary to what they say. All my peers who are female 37 unmarried ask me where are all the good men? What they mean is where are the tall rich successful men... They aren't checking for you girlie lol. Who wants a combative girl boss wife? I want a mother and a wife lol
Is this video basically saying that unwanted, unqualified, rejected men from the states are moving to Asia where women are less demanding with lower standards for men? 😆
Getting married is not a way to show a person or couple is traditional. Traditional woman is someone who can cook, clean, and take good care of her children and men. Traditional men are those who can provide for their women and children. Many years ago, a couple only needed to have a ceremony to let other people know they were a couple and no marriage certificate existed back then - that's traditional!
It takes 2 to tango. The guy might be looking for a traditional relationship and the girl might choose not to. So his only option will be to live with her in a "non traditional" relationship.
@@timd6479 Traditional is NOT defined same way in Asia. Grow up kid. World does not function as per your whims. Marriage is prerequisite for Traditional men and women here
As a women in my 20s, I believe you should go where you’re celebrated and also know sometimes things take time to find the right person, and it’s not guaranteed for everyone.
The nativity of this men is hilarious... I've been living in Thailand for more than 2 years. I am not saying you can't find true love or a healthy relationship here, but I am rired of seeing this same men complaining about "transactional relationships" and making a tantrum when they discover the beautiful, feminine and traditional woman that "fell in love with them" only wants financial support for her and her family (and NO, I am not judging this women for that at all). They are mnat sociological studies about this phenomena in Asia that explains why this women seek for foreigners instead of the local men. Let's be clear. Traditional family values in western societies have evolved into something else. The statuos quo has been broken and we are immersed inside the transition. It's uncomfortable and painful, but it's happening either we like it or not. The problem with passport bros is not that women are changing, it's that they are incapable of adaptation. Sad but true for both men and women, we are in a limbo that not everyone is going to be able to get out of. Anyway. I still believe in true affection and deep connections. Let's hope most of humanity can find the right balance between cultivating their own individuality without loosing the connectivity awareness.
Sorry but you are missing the point. The problem most men have in the west is that unless you are handome over 6ft tall and six figure salary most women will not even consider you. On Tinder (their own statistics) typically women only swipe right on 5% of men wheras men swipe right on 45% of women. This has created a huge imbalance and many single men have no chance of ever getting married and having a family. Most decent guys will not approach a woman in person for fear of being seen as a creep. So what is he supposed to do. Of course there are some horrible men that go to these countries for shall we say not for nice purposes. and most men I speak to utterly condemn this type of behaviour. Most men want equality but there are too many double standards e.g. in my old job women were allowed to say they wanted a rich man and even could comment on his body parts but if a man said he wanted a traditional woman he would be fired.
@@saveandinvestwithgiorgiolo8375 I disagree. I can assure you, there are PLENTY of women who don't need a man to have a six figure salary or to be extremely handsome. Of course, women want to date someone that they are attracted to, as do men. Just like women, men have a beauty standard. But I don't understand why there's so much force on women to "be kind" and date men they aren't attracted to when men have nowhere near the same pressure to date women they aren't attracted to. If you're old, short, bald and fat, the women in Thailand aren't going to be anymore attracted to you than the women back home. The only reason why they might act like they are is because they are in a third world country, and they want to get out. If you're seen as a creep in your home country when you approach women, the solution isn't to go to Asia and hit on women there - the solution is to look inward. But passport bros won't do that, because the only things on their mind is having sex with young women (sometimes even children) and having a family that they have no intention to support. That's just the reality..
@@saveandinvestwithgiorgiolo8375 still most men are married to women from their own country, and there are way more in relationships than 5%, that is why yours is totally exaggerated. 90% of my German friends are happily married with equally succesful partners and they are not all rich, tall or extremely attractive. Sometimes the men make less money. My husband doesn't have a job right now, but I do support us without a question. Most Asian women would be out of the door, because there is a deal between beauty/s*x and providing for most of these couples.
Interesting- but all I know is my uncle became a passport bro and married a lady from the Philippines and then bright her back home. They had a baby together and she seemed nice- but it wasn’t a happy ending. She got her citizenship and brought her parents over- then divorced my uncle, got full custody of their child and took half of everything. He thought he married for love and she’d be a traditional at home wife and mother- but it’s not how it turned out. It’s so sad!
It's her ROI. No young person would ever want to be with anyone close to the age of their parents. We Filipinos keep warning these old passport bros. But they never listen
It's all about the money. Average Western men seeking their ideal wife in 3rd worlds coz it's cheaper, and Asian women dating Western men to escape poverty. As a Filipino I don't care, as long as both parties are happy, and are planning to get married.
Every woman wouldn’t mind a guy with money. It isn’t the end all and won’t insure love or success in the relationship. But it will get you noticed and you can have more dating options to find the girl you like
Well i guess all women are the same. Lots of bs argument just create so that they can have full control over men. If a man refuse and "fight" back, he immediately being accused by one of various reason. Double standard are truly evil, but most men don't realize that until they live in one.
Because asian culture is like you have to live for your families like not just for your life which means you should be stable in everything like literally everything if youre to marry an asian woman. Im an asian so i knows very well especially if youre having a relationship with a girl with low income @joaquinagaga9300
I am a Filipina married to an American for 13 years now. I am a Scientist and he is an IT professional. I am far from subservient to my husband but I respect his decisions and I value his opinions. I love how caring Western men are when they really love somebody. My only job is to pretty much keep my son alive. So he did most of the cooking and household chores. He is also very loyal. Had I married my Filipino ex bf, I would’ve been left at home doing all the chores while he’s out working and doing other extra curricular activities. You see in Asia, there’s a double standard when it comes to cheating. Men are view “masculine “ or macho when they have many women on the side whereas women are viewed as disgusting whores when they commit the same mistake. Not all Filipino men cheat obviously there’s a few good ones left I’m sure.
What you describe is a typical “western style” marriage, not what these creeps are looking for there.. similarly many men in the west have affairs and that’s why the divorce rate is so high
From what I've seen, the vast majority of single men who come to southeast Asian countries aren't looking for just one girl to be serious with, rather just many casual relationships. As a man, I don't understand this at all. I think a close connection is so much more valuable than many casual flings
Nope. From what I've learned from research is the exact opposite. The majority of actual Bros are looking for love, and the same old tourists that go to those places like they always have are being confused with them. The Passport Bros are the guys that want a wife, those other dudes are the same old sex hungry tourists that's always been going to these places since before WW2.
They're going there for female attention because they're lacking it on their own turf. When they receive an abundance of female attention in these impoverished countries, their quest for finding a wife goes out the window.
That's the point this video is missing. Most passport bros DO NOT travel for a wife. They are sëx tourists, plain and simple. Dressing it up as dating doesn't change the facts.
24:36 - Let’s be honest, this woman isn’t exactly a victim here. She was searching for "true love," but only with someone who had a Western passport. On the other hand, the Western guy was also looking for "true love," but specifically with an Asian partner he could use & get rid off. Neither of them was upfront about their real intentions. The woman likely wanted the financial security and benefits that come with being with a Western passport holder, while the man seemed to be after a casual, no-strings-attached relationship. In the end, both got what they wanted. Simple as that. LM
I can`t believe they titled this documentary with "searching for love". I mean these men go there to buy the physical aspect of the whole thing or a girl that is desperate enough to escape poverty to sell herself for years and actually marry a foreigner who is like that. It`s about money for the girl and ownership for the guy, nothing to do with love.
I saw this in Japan in the 90s. I met man after Amercan man who said, "I only date Japanese girls," like a 50 year old American men dating a 20 year old Japanese woman. They totally misunderstood the surface agreeableness of Japanese women. After marriage, they would find out how much cultural differences made in the relationship.
Yes, the divorce rate of japanese women with foreign men is like 50%. Very high. But the divorce rate of japanese men with western women is same as if it would be a pure japanese couple. Actually its even a bit lower. Many european women get married now to a japanese or korean man. The number is increasing constantly. As a german woman, my husband is also japanese
I'm 43 years old and have seen what social media has done to every aspect of our society since FB and the first smartphone came into the market. SHOCKING! and it is getting much much worse, with TikTok.
What’s so shocking? Women have always been this way. All social media did was show it to the world. You think women in the 50s didn’t want a rich tall guy?
And that’s why it’s also getting worst in places like Philippines and whatnot these woman or young woman get SIMPS to send them money just for text communication or some pictures exchanged so they don’t really want to cherish any genuine relationship 😅😂😂😂
It's incredibly concerning how quickly social media has degraded society--on a global scale. I did my Masters degree in Media Studies 10 years ago and even back then we were actively researching the ways in which bad actors could use social media to spread division, hate, misinformation, and even terrorism (this was back when terror groups were literally using social media to groom disaffected young people to join ISIS). And has only gotten WORSE since then. I no longer use any personal social media and the few sites that I do visit I make sure to actively shake up my algorithm from time to time so I'm not caught up in any echo chambers.

Some say money cannot buy love, but people truly love money, therefore money can buy love. The one thing that money cannot buy is time. So if you have time on your side, consider yourself very lucky.
You’ve got no Idea it’s got nothing to do with money, if you understood that Pattaya is mainly for money but Bangkok not much as such then you wouldn’t have made such a dumb ass comment.
19:11 I'm a Thai person working at an international company in Thailand. I've met a lot of Westerners who moved to Thailand for work (and probably for love). Moving here doesn't mean giving up on success. Just being a native English speaker already gives you unique skills. I know some people in my company , and I often think they couldn't be this successful in their own countries.
As for relationships in the west, have you seen how many singles there are? Its average women and average men who are not finding each other, due to hole host of factors. So average men go online and see there is interest in them in thailand, so they go where they feel wanted. I really dont think the western man feel wanted by the western women anymore. You are also more exotic in a foreign country. But if they are good ppl who want serious relationships, then good for them. Personally i fell for a filipina nurse here in Denmark, I have been in relationships here but she is so different, caring nurtering and family oriented. But also modern, and I also help around the house and with the kids. So traditional it isnt. I just feel wanted and treasured with her, I didnt get that from the local women, and I am not bad looking at all.
As a person who has lived in Canada, I'd say that the gender wars in the West might be steeped in deep misunderstanding and social media making the West lose the nuance they used to have. In Asia I don't necessarily see it us asians as "upholding traditional gender roles", another way to look at it is we understand and respect the equal powers of the matriarchy and patriarchy. For example in the workplace, in Singapore we don't really bat an eye having a woman boss. But in the West, its actually a huge deal. Where dominance/competition is the pervasive energy of a country - everyone will be at war with one another in some way or another. Even women against men because of their version of the patriarchy is a lot more combative in nature than ours. Whereas in SEA where we uphold collaboration - I think we see the importance of everybody's role in family and work. Just offering a different perspective! *update* I don't condone the West or The East. I personally like to take goods from both camps. It'll be great to understand global political and cultural systems and form and shape one's own identity and not feel swayed into tribal fallacies or availability biases.
Yes there is a reason why Asia has had female presidents and prime ministers and mom/granny dominated homes whereas US has never had a woman preisdent and any attention or position attained by a woman is seen as attack on men and hurts male ego there
That's true and were really traditional but we don't care havung a woman president and woman boss and i find it weird that the USA still has a lot of people who don't see women as equals.
It's true. No respect for the common desires. Very combative, individualistic. Your partner is not an enemy. Both sides need to come together to avoid this toxic western concept.
THIS, as a canadian im tired of the gender war, all my life ive either met abusive women, its getting tiring dealing with people who are angry at everyone. a lot of young men just want to meet a women who is similar age and has morals and her own hobbies. i find its way easier dating foreign women, even from western europe. if they could stop the gender war, maybe young people could get along again
Jesus is the way the truth and the life. No one can go to the Father except through him.❤️ Knowing Jesus is knowing peace, protection and provision ❤️ Jesus saves, Jesus heals, Jesus grants peace , Jesus forgives and Jesus loves you.
sure ATM, not problem. Better than child support, taking half of my net worth in divorce. I love being an ATM to my Thai girl. Much better for value for the buck even after four years.
If Western women don't want to be traditional and feminine that is fine, however, men absolutely have the right to go seek out a woman that meets his criteria. A lot of people in the West forget that freedom is a two-way street that applies to both men and women 🤷♂️
I’m a feminist and I agree with this 100%. As long as no one’s denigrating the other party and these passport bros aren’t courting their female interests under false pretenses/abusively, I’m not invested in this discussion It’d be dishonest to even assert that dating dynamics haven’t changed with the advent of feminism/industrialization
Asian has more female empowerment than america. They arent objectified and these countries literally have female presidents once in a while. Just say directly A 50 yr old poor man could work in thailand to younger ladies due to dollar exchange. These passport bros after divorce don't want to look for women of similar age group but rather find things in poor countries. It's same as why manufacturing shifted to Asia due to cheap cost of labour. Due to, too high income inequality in america, passport bros can find cheap temporarily wife in asia.
That’s fine with me they can go find their dumb uneducated submissive moron and I’ll continue being a straight strong and independent woman who doesn’t let a man tell her what to do
Western women: No value and scream at anyone point it out. Create a lot of nonsense to make themselves look good and scream at anyone point it out. And teach men how to be men, in other word, to be slave giving her all attention and money.
You work for 40yrs to have $1m in your retirement, Meanwhile some people are putting just $10k in a meme coin for just few months and now they are multi millionaires. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life
As a proud independent South East Asian woman living in the west and married to a Westerner , I especially found what the Filipino lady said quite insulting to all women.. are you saying only SEA woman are “real woman” and the only feminine ones around ? Many of my Western girlfriends are feminine, beautiful , financially independent and all they want are men who can “man up”… meaning having a relatively good career, be thoughtful and share the load in family duties .. and having lived my life overseas now for decades , I can see both sides rather well. Western women are not adverse to dating “average joes” like the content creator living in the Phillipines say .. in fact I know they are quite happy to date and average Joe if that guy has a regular paying job , has great hygiene, had integrity and is a decent person to their family, friends and anyone else they meet .Maybe some these passport bros need to look in the mirror and ask themselves some tough questions 😊
As another South East Asian woman, it was off-putting to me too. How sad that to make ourselves feel good we often feel like we need to put down another group. It is quite clearly pride or arrogance speaking on her part; it may also be that she is parroting the language of her spouse, who wisely chose not to speak on camera.
Yeah when she said “a real woman” I’m like oook. If that lady lived in the US she wouldn’t be dating or marrying that American guy lol. White men are seeing as attractive there and their dollars or other currencies triple to the currency of the Philippines. I don’t think this has to do with women. It’s just the fact that foreigners have better luck outside of a first world country. That’s just a fact …
Well said and it's nice to see a woman standing up for other women and not play the game made by these PPB losers. Western women are no where as bad as these guys make them out to be. They just don't want low value men that love stereotyping and generalizing others based on where they came from. These men have no value, no character, no career and not even a good personality.
My grandparents were married over 70 years. When I say that people say oh how sweet. I went to visit them in their apartment in NYC in 1980’s. They were in their early 70’s (they both lived well into their 90’s) I remember sitting on their bed with my grandmother and my grandfather yelled at her where was his belt. She yelled back it was on the bed and he should only hang himself with it. I think they were sick of each other. They were born around 1900 and women didn’t have many choices.
I'm Chinese and grew up in Canada. Honestly I feel the same. It's cool and fun being friends, but there are just too many family values that don't align when 2 ppl start dating.
Almost all women including those who are professionally successful, marry men for their financial status, so what's wrong if a girl from S.E Asia would want the same for her?
i first hand witness where the local men will sleep with the foreigners wife/girlfriend apartments which the foreigner is paying. Local men still have their mouth piece to make the girls laugh and conversate something that foreigners do not have. The local men have no jobs and nothing going for them but they still manage to have 1 wife, 2 kids and a girlfriend in the city, and a ex-wife in another province, and a ex wife in another city, believe me the local men are not simps, they are not stupid, they do not give out money for relationships or sex.
and i forgot most of these woman that are looking for foreigner husbands/boyfriends already have children from their local man. So another example that the local men have no issues getting their local woman.
So men should stay and choose women that they think is not okay with them? We don't get to choose? Whats next? Collar around the neck? You be you. Be happy, be successful, and leave us with our own choice.
Exactly. What is needed is for dudes to go full Trump level mean on these Women and their weak Men allies who side with them on everything including against other Men. What Passport Bros should say is "Mind your business, and go away and leave me to my life!"
Everyone is entitled to there own beliefs,if western women don't want to become traditional wives that's their choice but they have no right to enforce their beliefs in other men & women
Watch a few videos made by divorced "trad" wives and you'll begin to understand why average American women are no longer willing to sacrifice, put up with domestic violence and other forms of abuse, give up their careers - all in the name of love, then find their husband cheating. When the divorce is final, many are left homeless and destitute - even with laws that supposedly "favor" women. These ex wives sacrificed their careers to stay home, raise children, care for their husband, and run the household, only to find themselves reentering the workforce with outdated skills and, as an older person, facing severe hiring discrimination.
I get it. I'm a normal dude with a normal job in the US. Whenever I go to other countries the type of attention I get from women vs what I get in the US is night and day. Women I wouldn't have a chance with in the US will be all over me in other places. I don't plan on ever moving to another country for a relationship, but I definitely understand why others do.
Came to the same conclusion as you did but in reverse. Every time I travel into the US there's some sort of force field that makes me invisible. At first I didn't know what was happening and felt miserable. But the moment I stepped out bam! Same as you describe it. I'm married now, so happily don't have to worry about it, but yes, there's something in the water.
As an American guy, I have to say that I really love cooking and am quite good at it...I also am good at cleaning! Most girls are quite surprised and impressed by my domestic skills...especially when I cook for them and even give them some food to take home. I do that for all of my friends....both men and women! Maybe I'll make someone a good housewife one day!
These guys wouldn't be able to deal with a strong modern woman. And those women wouldn't give them a second glance. Of course they went to Asia seeking 'ladies'. If they only knew who they are actually dating... such irony!
It's crazy how much "Red pill" topics keep making it main stream. Back in 2017 to 2020 it was mostly an underground topic that normies had no clue about. Popularity usually ruins something because of greed.
It's only now becoming popular on tiktok, it's ALWAYS been a thing in the UK because of Hong Kong and it's Indonesian/fillipina population. The way you mention 'normies' tells me the problem you have is something else other than it being underground The only thing changing is that the dating environment in first world countries + China is becoming increasingly hostile which causes more people to choose this route, not necessarily because it has become mainstream
@@hayley4032 things change when an Asian country progresses... South Korea was like that, until Kpop replaced PAssport bro with Passport Sisters, because of women hooked up with Kpop... no difference with Philippines, Thailand... as Asian pop culture rise, Western bro becomes ugly bro in the eyes of women...
I’m an ok looking Asian guy who did ok while in NYC. Dates all sorts of races and on occasion, would land a hottie. When I moved to Utah and then to Austin, I could not get dates. In fact, the rejections made me felt like I was beneath them and….repugnant. It humbled the sh*t out of me and put me in a sad state. I have a lot of self love but going through that was pretty brutal. I finally moved to Thailand and spent time in Hong Kong and Malaysia for a few weeks prior. OMG. What was I missing out on? I feel attractive again. And these are qualified, smart, juicy, beautiful feminine women. What had the women in general become back in the states? Haven made the jump, I questioned everything I knew back with dating women in the NYC and other parts of the states. Go where you’re treated best. Doesn’t matter if it’s romance, finance/banking or lifestyle, etc. you deserve it. Chart your own path and learn to love from the heart.
Don’t despair, bro! You went from one of the best dating markets for men in the U.S. to one of the toughest. For context, California-especially San Francisco-is notoriously challenging for men in the dating scene. I’ve done extensive research on this, looking at metrics like gender ratios, which are heavily skewed in the Bay Area. To give you an idea, I know this girl there who would only date anesthesiologists. She wasn’t even particularly stunning, yet she had the audacity to "check them out" like library books until she "found the right one." And, hey, its fine! SF just simply heavily favors women. My solution was simple: I moved to a dating market that’s far more favorable for men-Asia. The difference was night and day, and I’ve never looked back since
It is because in recent years the wave of anti-Asian in US and Europe . Asian especially males haven't been well portrayed in the West msm for a long time.
I think the issue is far simpler. In the US and to a much extent in Canada, in general men need women but women do not need men - hence, any relationship between them will be deeply unequal. Many men attempt to find a partner from a culture where men and women need each other and hope that a relationship with such a person will be more balanced and fair.
Women may think they can replace a man with a paycheque. There is a price to pay for that misconception - can't deny nature and expect to get off scot free, folks...
I am a teacher and I am married to a Belgian (not rich😅). People here in Europe thought that I was bought by my man and was uneducated. They were really surprised when I said that I am teaching English here in Germany 😅😅😅
General qc, so what’s the difference between those guys and yellow fever? As an Asian woman, I’ve come across plenty of people who approach with lines like, “You’re not like the usual white/Black/etc girls,” and I’ve always really disliked those kinds of people. I’ve also always wondered what kind of person they are back in their own country. Like, are they struggling to fit in there and that’s why they’re acting like this here? I mean, coming to another country with new dreams or goals is brave (and hey, we welcome your dollars), but… what makes those guys any different from yellow fever? Are they just yellow fever with enough money for a plane ticket?
To be fair it’s usually combination of guys with yellow fever and women with white fever that are booking up. Makes for a very strange bubble in a lot of these places.
Did you just suggest that sex trafficking is a Southeast Asia thing, knowing what we all know about the Eastern European sex trade? It always peaks its dirty head.
I date interracially... typically mean old black women... cause they know how to run a home and know how to take care of their man when they get a good one. I don't fall in love with doormats. I find sleeping with one eye open when I've been bad is invigorating!!
I wonder what Thai or Filipino men think or how they feel about this phenomenon. Indirectly, they are also affected by it. Who are they going to marry?
It's usually the old head retirees and passport bros competing for women in there and then they brag about it to other expats I've seen it in angeles city and dumaguete
Filipino guy here. I understand why foreigners choose Filipina wives. I wouldn't dare date and marry Western women. Interracial marriage is a drop in a bucket in the Philippines. An overwhelming majority of Filipinos marry Filipinas and vice versa. We know what to expect from each other. Mixed marriages are accepted here. It has been going on for decades. It just became trendy to call them passport bros nowadays. I have foreign neighbors. They fit nicely in the community. I have relatives who married foreigners. They are part of the family. Our society is really a melting pot. Many of our top athletes, celebrities, politicians etc. are from mixed marriages. In my circle, many of the Filipinas who married foreigners were not really popular among local guys. I think it's a win-win. Foreigners will be okay here as long as they don't disrespect the women and the culture.
I am not sure about the whole logic about feminine women in Asia. Look at East Asia like Korea. Isnt it having the same issues as the West? So its just economics in SEA countries.
No. Korean Men are much harsher in the treatment of their Women. Generally, South Korea is as advanced as the USA, Philippines, and Thailand are not. The culture is more old fashioned.
It's not really about men and women. it's actually about a collectivist culture vs individualism. The traditional models support women to learn and stay in the feminine. If she is moved to a system of individualism, she has to learn how to aggressively compete, too. Its better for the men to live and marry into those collectivist cultures and countries than to bring the wife into his individualism culture, because their kids will end up individualist too and the cycle will repeat. I know people are a bit afraid of being replaced but a model has to be sustainable, it cant be artificially upheld by lobby groups.
I miss the days when we had to socialize and interact off dating apps and in social places. 2:40 If these men want a feminine woman they do exist in the USA, the same effort used for traveling can be applied to traveling around USA. If a man wants a traditional woman in the USA, he needs to be ready to take on the traditional role. It's an expensive decision to provide for two people in the west, unless you have it.
They know traditional "feminine" women exist in the US, but they don't want them because they can't afford that lifestyle here. The cost of living in SEA or South America is significantly lower than in the US, which is why so many of them (that aren't just after sex tourism) are trying to live in these places permanently.
Thank you for taking multiple perspectives and making this great report. During these times of significant gender divides, it's important to hear from both sides. Originally I saw passport bros negatively because I thought they were preying on "less affluent women", but I now see that judgement carries a racist judgement for the women who have agency and consent to the relationship while also disregards the genuine struggles the average western joe has with romantic relationships in his home country. While I understand there are distasteful and disgusting passport bros, many are just looking for a relationship and there are consenting, financially independent women who meet them. Regulation and social stigma towards the bad guys should happen, but it shouldn't bleed over to those who are genuinely finding love and partnership in another country.
If one partner is financially at the mercy and forced to submit to the will of another that’s exploitation. If someone plans and designs such a scenario so they can have that power over another they’re a predator. Just my opinion.
@@alinad2928 I could be wrong, but you appear to either dislike Men or dislike traditional men led family structure. Men and women at times disagree on structure and leadership. So we should go to the source of what structure is set outside of ourselves. In Genesis, God first created man and he was directed to rule over God's creation. God then created the amazing woman to be the helpmate to the man. Both are valuable, but the roles are different. The man is to lead and the woman is to submit to her husband. Her submission to her husband is out of respect and submission to God. The Bible commands the man to love his wife to the extent the he should lay his life down for her. It's the order that God has established and both men and women are blessed by following those commands. Ephesians: Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands 1Peter Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered
Most women in the West try to be men. From the perspective of non Western women, and a growing number of Western men, Western women are not real women.
Very funny, if you for prostitutes probably the case. I have been in Thailand on off four 10 years. The STD testing is amazing, PCR and hundreds of tests. Went to the Mayo Clinic and asked for the same and they said they don't offer that kind of testing because insurance will not pay for it.
When people talk about “traditional” in the context of gender I’m going to need them to be more specific. What tradition, in what time, by which people? Because gender roles are different in different places at different times. As evidenced by what these passport bros are doing!
No not really. Gender Roles were pretty much uniform apparently within the dominant realms. Roman Empire and Han China the Men and Women had similar roles. Throughout Western Civilization's history especially, the Male/Female roles were very much similar regardless of whether it was Ancient Egypt in 2000 B.C., or Greece 500 B.C., or Roman Empire, 400 A.D., Charlemagne's Empire, 800 A.D., British Empire 1750 A.D., USA, 1950 A.D., Patriarchal realms all, and the details differ, but Men and Women had clearly defined roles and the Egyptian and 1950's USA Men would recognize "Manliness" from "Femininity". So, NO, it doesn't really differ that much, with the mighty realms of history. Which the USA happens to be part of the tradition of.
I am white, married to a Chinese woman. This statement is accurate. More traditional marriage. I have been married to two American white women in the past. I was used to get them out of their parents homes. Once the newness wore off, and I am not six feet tall making six figures. They moved on. I was never looking to be a passport bro. But on a dare, I did it. Am very happy I did.
Sorry but this is nonsense. If you look at the statistics in many western countries woman are only going for the top 5% of guys. Just look at the stats on Tinder woman are only swiping on 5% of men and in person it is very difficult to approach woman for fear as being seen as a creep so what are these men supposed to do if they want a family. If they are rejected in their own countries let them have a chance of finding love abroad. Of course those who exploit woman should be utterly codemned.
I think and this might be unpopular opinion but as a woman i say if you want to find love and lady wants to be with you then what does it matter if she is from UK or from Asian country. Be happy life is short enough to start thinking what others might think of this.
I don't think that's unpopular at all. Most men would agree with you. The problem is that the women in the UK are awful and it would be miserable to marry them. I live in the UK but for over a decade have only had serious relationships with women from other countries. When I try to date women from here it's just a miserable experience. Instead the foreign women i date are far more enjoyable experiences. And many of these women are not living in poverty, they have been from really wealthy families, far richer than me, I am broke. They also already have UK residency, so not interested in my passport. They are not always in it to gain something. They are genuinely just nicer to be around and more willing to get to know you than UK women.
This reminds of UA-cam vlogs i watched few months ago, its a white dude in his 40's who calls himself a "passport bro" living in the Philippines , and in the video he tour his friend around and the dude keeps telling his friend like " look the girls are giving us a flirty look" and they literally spend most of the time outside the highschool campus where all the girls you can see in the video were junior highschooler wtf.. can't find his channel from my UA-cam history dude probably blocked me coz i commented referencing them to PDF files 😂
I always wanted to be a traditional wife, I cook, clean, I've knowledge, hard working, I wanted to have kids but all of I wanted never happened when I married with American's man who can't afford to be the head of household and it's not his fault. So I'm working and helping him out for all of the bills, expenses but I have learned to living with my own, taking care of myself, work hard to save money for my retirement and I will go back to my country, Thailand.
Why is 'empowerment' a good thing? American women are empowerd to be what? Obese, intolerable and moronic? They're uncompetitive in the rest of the world and basically they're now finding excuses that the men are nexting them instead of looking in the mirror and asking? 'Am a seflish, disgusting liability to men?' 'Can I actually compete with girls from Latam, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Asia - literally anywhere else on earth?'
This is BS Philippines has had a woman president and there are many professional women here. Western people always want to equate freedom and financial success to virtue. A real virtue conversion hasn’t been had in the west in a very long time. Modesty, honesty, commitment, femininity are are things that are valuable and important, not just money
Before tech business and social media time; the only passport bro way was to teach English in South East Asian countries. Now more remote jobs available, so the passport bros have more chances to find love and enjoy life.
I am really impressed with the comments and love how logical and intelligent people are. I was thinking people would shame women for not being traditional enough and praise these men but I am glad people are not defending their unrealistic expectations.
This phenomenon (it's not a movement, just a result of men trying their luck elsewhere) has little to do with traditional gender roles for me. Western dating is mostly broken, and this leads men to go elsewhere. Some of those men hold traditional values, some of them don't. Some women in the west even hold more traditional values... Anyways, the phenomenon isn't only about relationships either. The reason why men, and sometimes women too by the way, leave the west is also because of cheaper cost of living, a more hospitable climate and a better social cohesion than in many western countries today.
As a Mexican who moved to the U.S. at the young age of 12, I still struggle to adapt to the solitary lifestyle of this country. People here, in general, tend to be extremely superficial and shallow, with hobbies often centered around partying, drinking-things that don’t really add much value. So, I don’t blame anyone for wanting to look for love elsewhere, as long as it’s under the right circumstances and always with respect for the other person.
For me there is nothing wrong with marrying foreigners. I think both sides has pros and cons of marrying them. Marry a woman or man that your heart wants. And if you want traditional or modern perspective when it comes to commitment, go for it. As long as there is no exploitation on both sides and there’s always an understanding.
I'm ok with gender roles but let's be honest here. Men in America can't pay the bills by themselves. Not like back in the day. So since the man cant provide that gender role. The woman has to help out with that. If the woman works than the man must help out with the house chores. Most of these women from southeast Asia don't have to work to provide for the bills. And as an American you can live like a king in most of these countries. I'm all for people seeking their happiness but let's be realistic. Trust me, I myself wish I was a stay at home mom. Just like other women I know. But we can't, we live in america unfortunately.
You can if you only buy lifelike silicon babies and pets, don't eat out, shop secondhand, live in a studio, and don't go on vacations. Sounds silly, but it's true. You'd probably still have to work because a lot of places have raised housing costs so high that even living in a studio might cost half of one's monthly paycheck.
Chinese Canadian here, I think if you are looking for love or relationship in Asia then you should consider learning their language, culture, and their lifestyle. Don't label yourself as a Passport Bro as a means to get away from your own country so you have an easier time here in Asia, you probably won't make it past as a sex tourist or sugar daddy. Simply visiting for 30-60 days and hoping to meet someone serious is unrealistic and also very risky for the man. Consider living here for a while, work here, understand how life is here before you settle down. Learning even a few words or phrases goes a long way, especially when most of the girls in Asia barely speaks English. Good luck!
There are lots of women here in the US that want to be "trad" wives. But at the same point-men need to be ready to take on the head of the household role.
Many men are willing to do that. I know quite a few men like this. Family law in Canada and the US unfortunately aren’t a good deal for men so many are walking away from getting married. It’s just too risky.
and that's the problem. They can't afford to do that in the US and instead of admitting they can't afford the life they want, they blame the women and call their expectation unreasonable and call them feminists because they won't give up their job to live in single-income poverty.
men cant afford tradwives in the US so they go to poor countries where their money has more value. passport bros are men who cannot compete in their birth country and need to compete with men who have less than them
If you want your wife to be a stay at home mom, wife and in a traditional role....then you have to be able to provide for that! You have to be able to pay for the kids, house, bills, car, vacations etc. Back in the 50's or 60's this was easy...Right now most people need two incomes to survive, let alone thrive. So if she needs to work, for your family to thrive then don't expect her to be a "traditional" wife.
A lot of bros from the west says they want a traditional wife but they themselves are not ready to be the traditional husbands. If you expect a woman to split the bills with you then you gotta help in the household chores.
Men have no problem being traditional and paying all the bills if he gets all the benefits. They also dont have problems being modern and doing house chores. Most men are single and do their own chores. The problem is women want men to pay all the bills and court them traditionally but want to be modern themselves and if they are working want to keep their money for themselves. The old his money is my money and my money is my money thing doesnt work anymore. Women want men to take half the domestic role but then keep all the financial burden
And the notion that an Asian woman would be the perfect "traditional wige" is so weird💀
Easy ask
They want conservative women but want a liberal relationship.
but men are still the ones who have to stick to their roles? Come on loverboy🙄
I'm a passport bro in Africa. I'll do housework when my gf also goes downstairs if someone breaks in the house. lol...also I make 5 times what my gf makes and we simply put in 100% each. we pool our money. I dont work because I'm retired early and she works nearly full time but I still do not cook or clean. we hired a live in maid but she pays for it because she insists on working when she could choose to stay home. only in America are 2 incomes necessary. when the guy is making more money overseas and he is upgrading the woman then she is going to have to put in more chores. I'll be damned if I'm going to upgrade her life and yet I'm cooking and cleaning. not going to happen. if she don't like it she can get out of my house. but guess what! she comes home from work..cooks my food and caters to me out of love and appreciation to how I bettered her life.
None of the women in Asia are splitting the bills with a western man. The woman and her family expect you to take care of her. If you want a traditional wife, better be prepared to be a traditional husband/father.
Depends what you mean by taking care. Also depends on what social class you date. Most of the guys i met who dated helped out, but it was usually not more than helping when healthcare bill dropped etc. If you are an old dude dating young, its usually a poor family and that might be different, and you would have to take care of more. But there are now more men who are in their 30s and 40s going to date women abroad than ever and they dont date the really poor girls, but moreso the more well educated women and well established families. Which is a much better fit. I am married to a filipina for a little over 4 years, and she works as a nurse.
I dated a Thai woman from a lower-middle class family. She always offered to pay for her own things. Again this really depends on the rest of the relationship dynamics. If you are 20-30-40 years older than her and much less attractive than her - you will need to make up for that in the way that you treat her, and take care of her.
She always offered to split the bill / buy her own things and I almost never allowed her to that.
Duh, that's what men are programmed to do! We are not broke. We work for our women and families. It's just that women in the West don't appreciate us.
@janicep11 Most "Passport bros" are traditional. They just don't want to be with trashy worthless western women.
Lies again? Singapore Brazil Main Jubur
I am Vietnamese married to an American man. We met in college here in American. We've been married for 10 years. Let me tell you interracial marriage takes a lot a lot of work. If you going for Asian women because you think they are submissive, you're in for a huge surprise! Good luck!
Marriage takes a lot of work no matter who you're married to.
I think it's expected and most men are ready to make sacrifice and compromise. Western women don't do that, it's always : "I want, I need, I deserved" Social medias is a glipse on the female psyche, a lot of video promoting that mentality of "I,I and I".
The reason why a lot of American men end up marrying Asian women has less to do with "submission" and more to do with the fact that most Asian women don't hate men.
I lived in China and I agree with you-Asian women are not submissive (and they shouldn't be submissive). A lot of men think they want a "traditional, submissive, woman" and after marriage they realize they just want a woman who doesn't hate men.
I'm an American man who married a Japanese woman. I can confirm without any shred of doubt that Asian women are most certainly NOT submissive. Don't buy into the stereotypes.
@@chongtay-voviet glad you said it. I was with a Korean for 13 years. awful.
with a Filipino for 11 years. awful.
and many Asian women in between my whole life. They difficult. jealous. clean freak. and just gets more neurotic over time. never again lol..
I went and got me a African woman.from Cote D'ivoire..omg..like night and day the level of bs i constantly had to put up with asian women.
anyway..no offense. I feel sorry for your husband🤣🤣 I'm joking. you sound self aware
As an asian man who grew up in Vietnam and later immigrated to the U.S., I was baffled at the masculinity movement that infected the passport bros’s minds that made them going to Southeast Asia countries to find their trad wives, and I’m here like😂 man you bois are crazy… they don’t know what they are getting into. Lmao.
If Asian women are happy with them and you don't care about them, why are you so offended? 😅😅😅 And If they don't need men or despise men then why are they intimidated and offended by passport bros who are serving their purpose
I ve meet asian women in the west and they re not submisive at all....educated,outspoken,well off and used to have the men at their feet. Spoiled princess treatment is what asian men give them...i ve seen it.
Can you provide details?
😂😂😂
They think they cant control a women that dont speaks his country language, so she never will ask for divorce.
The manly concern is The divorce.
Social media, smartphones, headphones, dating apps ... have turned the entire planet into some warped dystopia. It's only getting worse.
Exactly!!
🎯
💔
Spot on
If only we can stop it… ugh.
These apps make people date 5, 6 others at a time and never being happy with what they have.
Highly educated Filipina here in USA, married a white American man and yet I was a victim of domestic abuse(in America). I don’t know where to put this thought in the subject of passport bros. I’m putting this out there hoping that is one angle of inter-racial partnership could turn sideways.
I'm so sorry you had to experience domestic abuse 😢 hope you are thriving and that you are better now
I think it's bc these "passport bros" see women in these countries as a commodity instead of humans bc they exploit economic differences since they cant find the love in the US
You should warn all your friends against dating such men. They look at you like a hunter does game, trust me. Its all about f3tishes for them. If youre smart date a good Asian man.
Bc you're viewed as a commodity by these "passport bros"
Sorry to hear that. I wouldn’t say this is any relevant to passport Bros. There’s abusive men in every country, it’s not even clear to me that There’s more abusive men in one country versus another one. However I have heard Russia they don’t mess around.
I met a few professional women when I was in Thailand - business owners, bank workers, etc. These women who make enough to care for themselves and their family comfortably were not interested in ‘passport bros’ at all. Not that they wouldn’t entertain a foreign boyfriend, but I think they can tell the difference between a guy who is genuinely well-off and a guy who *has* to move to an economically depressed part of the world because they can’t stay afloat in their home country. For women near the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder, one of these guys would be a great find, at least temporarily; I mean, if a relationship is purely transactional then you’d best perceive it as fleeting. But as long as it’s all consenting adults, then it’s none of my concern.
It goes to show women only want men if they can use them for their resources. Women date up. Men date down. So either way men are better than women and in fact are more moral and genuine than women.
It used to be women married guys who were starting out and they’d build wealth together.
I’ve had a few dates recently in Australia and all of them wanted a guy who had already built wealth and were willing to share it.
I found the exact opposite to be true. Women in those countries who focus on careers and education tend to not look for a partner until they're over 25, and in those cultures women that age are considered "too old." Hence, a lot of educated, professional women over there end up with Western men. I know two guys, one in Vietnam and one in Taiwan, who married educated women.
As for needing to move overseas to afford things...huh? Who cares? I mean, if a guy from Dubai who "only" made $400,000/year moved to Kansas, do you think the women there would say "oh, back home, that $400,000 salary isn't that much."? No. The money is green regardless.
my experience with professional thai women who wanted to date western men generally share the same preference of not wanting to date thai men. they all stated the same reasons, i.e. thai men cheats, don't respect thai women, and too chauvinistic
I lived in Thailand for a long time. You're right but the career women you mention are usually much more superficial and only interested in career and money, moreso than the girls that come from nothing.
Southeast Asian here.
Passport bros do not seem to realize that the type of women interested in them are usually the ones who are less educated and more materialistic than the average Southeast Asian woman. Sure, these women are traditional wives in the sense that they will cook and clean up for you but passport bros need to also be aware that these women look at foreigners as giant walking ATMs. Women who have careers or are educated tend to not want to do anything with foreign men as it is usually looked down upon by society.
Wrong. Say that to my friends who have kids and married many foreign women 😂😂😂
@Ronydoo-yv2hs well it does matter if they met the foreign women back at their home country or working abroad in your country. Foreign women working abroad are already relatively well-off compared to the average local workers.
And if you do have friends who married women by meeting them from southeast aisa, I wonder how many of their wives actually do work or have careers.
@@Ronydoo-yv2hs cap.
@@Ronydoo-yv2hs are they poor or do they have money? that is the question. Would they stay with the men if they became broke?
@Anna-bo5dk
They work. Just like every hard-working man out here. They are not betas who are poor. They are average men being men, and they got good women.
They haven’t talked much about the massive cost of living difference. In Thailand the US dollar goes about three times as far. My share of a four day stay at a beach bungalow on a Thai island, with two friends and with fresh cooked amazing food, was $75.
A nomad making $40K/year can live a six figure lifestyle in another country. So of course the women there are going to like him more. If he was broke there many of those traditional women would ignore them.
And they didn’t say if the educated women there made a good living on their own.
Personally I think what consenting adults do with each other is their own business but I think the economic factors are a bigger influence.
American women are uncompetitive in the global market. They're loud, stupid, obese, selfish and incredibly childish. Literally everywhere else on earth has better women. These men are simply doing something logical.
i have a 3br 2 bathroom house in a gated community with patrolling armed guard at the gate i only pay $200USD a month
economic factors are probs the biggest reasons why this is happening
This sounds extremely appealing. My ass is working 60 hours a week. I don't care if there is cute asian women or not. Living freely without constantly guarding every penny sounds like a dream.
Yup, they love money as much as Western women except their concept of wealthy is different from Western women.
I know an old white man who married a Vietnamese lady. He got her an Australian citizenship and she started migrating her family over. After that she took all his savings and house, moved her family in there and divorced him. Not long after she married her Vietnamese boyfriend and got him an Australian citizenship. That old to this day thought she loved him because she was always so sweet to him.
That is a horrible story. But are you certain the gentleman didn't ignore any red flags?
I highly doubt this story Australia has very strict immigration rules
@@SEATravels yeah clearly 😂.Every time i heard of this situation, i assume these men are too broken to see the truth. There is no way in hell that there's absolutely no signs.
@@williamkreth it does happen the question is IS THERE A NUMBER of these "cross cultural marriages" all ending the same way. No that wouldn't be fair to say.
What a legend 😂
Women tend to date "up," valuing higher status or finances, while men often date "down," prioritizing youth and compatibility. Western women, having achieved equality in education and income, no longer see average or below-average men as viable options. In Southeast Asia, the difference isn’t about being more feminine but about economic disparity. As SEA women gain equality, their preferences will likely mirror those in the West. The "passport bro" strategy thrives on financial advantage, but in developed nations like Singapore, where women are highly educated and independent, it wouldn’t work the same way.
I often genuinely question what goes through the minds of young Filipino men. Imagine seeing girls your age-girls you should be dating-end up with some fat, ugly white guy, all because of a shitty spawn point in life. 😢
even ugly Singaporeans are hard to get. It's all about financial advantage. Helps to be white.
Depends also on population men vs women in that country, like china has more male, russia has more female, thai has female and lady boy all wanna find men
Thats absolutely untrue, it has more to do with culture and societal expectations. Japan, Chinq and South Korea are extremely wealthy countries, yet it's very easy to date there, because women aren't asking for the moon, hence, at best, it's a cultural disparity that is only magnified by ethe economic gap, not the other way around.
Women are absolutely fine with dating men who earn less so long as the man behaves like an equal partner, something these men in the documentary are clearly not interested in. That means the man actually has to do half of the household and child rearing labor and he has to be a good person who behaves like an adult.
These men would actually have to be interesting, good people who want to treat a woman as an equal. Women DO date men like that who earn less. But if you bring nothing to the table as a person but your paycheck, than your paycheck better be big, yes.
The delusion these guys have that their wealth-gap isn't the reason for their new founded success but rather is a 'cultural issue'. They won't be finding much success in the richer countries in Asia like Singapore, Hong Kong and South Korea. They are intentionally focusing their efforts on low-income countries in order to leverage this advantage.
Obviously Thailand Brazil Peru and Columbia are the main destinations. Plus the women are beautiful. But also cost of living there is much better than the USA
I don't think people want to admit that their money is what keeps their relationship
And?
@@bikefax8177Colombia holds the record for highest percentage of kids born to single mothers, 84%! So tell me exactly what is traditional there? 😅 The men in Colombia don’t like those “traditional” women?
somebody who has to gain anything from you will tell you anything you want to hear.
As an educated, professional woman in the Philippines, I feel insulted when a foreign guy says they're looking for a life partner but promotes our local women on social media like a piece of merch, then showing a video of the red light district, and putting a caption of "typical Filipinas".
The western media works hard to make us look bad, as an Indonesian woman I'm not happy either. They don't like us.
There was one guy online bragging about how he had three different girlfriends there who would do everything for him: laundry, food, sex, cleaning, and errands. He lied to all three of them and thought he hit the jackpot.
Agree. It's insulting.
Why? Most women do this to men everywhere.. people do this to other nationals.
Exactly. If you look at their forums, they’re posting and rating the women they find like escorts…
This might surprise many, but majority of Asian women still prefer local men due to language and cultural familiarity. Only a small number of these women, often the lesser financially stable ones, are opting for foreign men.
Also, no one is wondering what local Asian men think about this.
That's just what they tell you lol. Can't tell you how many Korean girls would cheat on their boyfriends with me in Itaewon or Hongdae. Plenty of them are down to just see what it's like.
You make very excellent points especially the part about them completely leaving out the Asian men’s perspective in all this
This needs way more upvotes.
a lot of it comes from fetishization and perpetuation of stereotypes
if you look at media, asian men are hardly every given a voice for themselves, and whenever they do have a role, its always someone who's meek, nerdy, etc.
they don't ask the local asian men because it doesn't fit the narrative
Asian man here. We dont really care about pasport bros lol
Big elephant in the room, Men leave country because they don't get enough money to provide... therefore the American dollar goes further
Okay if you believe that to be the truth.
I mean you're right
so just go to Canada then the USA dollar is worth so much there lol
Exactly
Smart if you're stacking your money to buy assets, instead of paying $1500 rent to share an apartment with 3 other people in a metropolis in usa compared to $250 for luxury condo in bangkok (sauna, co-working area, fitness center, pool)
you can maintain a lifestyle of freedom, lots of people in america are forced to work to keep up with car payments, and their expensive rent, and neglect buying assets
These girls are also smart. I'm from Iran, had two male friends who went back to Iran to find a traditional wife. They got married there, brought girls back to United States only for the new wives to go to school/get degrees and education+ some plastic surgery and divorce them and now get money from divorce settelement and find new life in USA and even new relationships!
Some are even known to have Bfs in Iran and plan on the whole passport Husband thing. So thay the female gets married to a sucker from USA, takes them to US and once the divorce and citizenship papers are done and overshe will apply for passport for her BF whom she never brokeup with and was in contact the whole time.
not really, they were then cheap wifes for the men, i would never sell myself to a man just to go abroad
@@beatscatmommy1735 Goes to show how deceitful they are regardless of race or religion. Should have kept them both in Iran.
US women do the same thing, who cares.
Well thats just cruel
Diabolical
My Mom is a former mail order that met my Dad through a news paper ad in Mexico advertising American men. Seeing passport bros trying to find love is honestly perfectly fine with me. Just don't be surprised if your new wife or girlfriend leaves you. Most of the women that go for foreign men are mostly interested in the financial benefits they can bring. My Mom was the same and I've met other kids or well adults now like me. That were the results of being children of relationships like this and it usually goes two ways.
Happy ending everyone is a happy family. Mom stays home, Dad provides for everyone needs and the kids are usually happy.
My ending is when Dad becomes broke and the happy rose petal glasses are taken off and Mom realizes that she didn't sign up to raise an adult baby.
Ya when there 50 plus years old and there balls are sagging other knees, most women aren’t going to find that attractive. Younger guys 45 and under who are in even decent shape will have no problem. And not all others girls want to move to the west. Most women I talked to in Philippines don’t want to move to America because they see how sick is has become.
😂women from poor countries think everyone in the west is rich. 😂
@Flex60369
They need a visa for chain migration.
Yeah, the women want to know and advantage of the money and the men of the sex 😢
Stupid woman
That dating expert is really out of touch with reality. If women are not marrying for financial security anymore but for love, why are they not marrying poorer guys in masses?
😂 its because they are just adding more and more stuff you have to do, jump on your tongue for me
Dating experts rarely talk sense or even common sense: they'd be out of business if they did.
From various comments online, it seems the poor guys are just as terrible, cheating, lazy and just have a general lack of personal development or ambition
Women from more developed countries don’t have to settle for men they don’t want. They have the opportunity to live a fulfilling life without settling. That’s a beautiful thing because it wasn’t always like that here when things were more “traditional”.
they are just not you
A sign of maturity is to accept that not everyone wants to live the same lifestyle as you do. Some women want a career life, others want a stay at home family life. Neither is good or bad.
+1 It's relative.
I agree. People make a big deal out of nothing.
Western men are accepting this. And they are going to look for women with the same values elsewhere. How is that immature?
@@rp-2f Correct.
Its actually bad if you magnify it. Women being in careers is fine at small scale, but were hitting a threshold/tipping point in American society where its now crumbling it.
I met a passport bro in a hostel in Southeast Asia this summer. Well, he said that he liked Asian ladies because they were more submissive, and acted coquettish as they are more financially dependant to men...that was so uncool when I am Asian female myself.
They're all broke losers here, and when they say they're looking for a submissive woman, where exactly is their frame of reference? They probably know 3 women here and one of them is their mother. Bottom line, if your best attribute is that you come from a rich country, then you're an even a bigger bum than I thought. If a passport bro wants to bring a female here and keep her essentially bonded and immiserated, then our Government should be looking out for that if they don't already. They leave here because they are getting absolutely swallowed by everyone. As a Portuguese American, I live half the year in the US and the rest in Portugal, and I would never use my citizenship or finances to manipulate anyone with less than me. They operate under the guise of providing someone less fortunate a better life, but it's a cloak for control and manipulation, especially sexual.
Agreed. I get so disgusted seeing this as a Asian woman.
A lot of them think that way because they found success is dating & bedding such women. White privilege is very real in Asia. They wouldn't have dated for long nor married one to know that's not always how things turn out.
That's the problem : the stereotypes. Travelling to find love based on stereotypes is never good cause reality is different.
As an asian woman myself, I can relate... it's is frustrating
@@Anaïswab Sure, but stereotypes are generalizations. In general, East Asian women are more submissive than white, latin, or black women. We EA's don't think that. But polling white men who have been in multiple interracial relationships say different. Besides, do we not generalize black, white, and asian men? If these men want to find wives in Asia so be it. That's better than the sex tourists who are _stereotypically_ white lol. This is just like the asian men who call out asian women who only date white men. We get so bent out of shape about that, but this chat is filled with women doing the same about passport bros.
I'm Thai-American and have been in Thailand for the past few years. I see so many foreigners come here for some kind of romantic relationship in mind and they don't get much further than the sex industry. I think finding a traditional woman would be difficult anywhere in this country nowadays.
you must be a women to believe that's their objective
Yup. They don’t really put in the effort, so once they’re off the plane they go to the first woman that says “hi handsome man”. Dude, you’re 60 and fat, she’s advertising
Are you saying that most of the women are pay to play?
So many old, overweight, balding, white betas plague SEA
True, Thailand degraded in last 5-10 years
I would say that the "traditional women" they're looking for in other countries EXPECT the man to pay for the vast majority (if not everything) regarding their life together. Thus, the only financially viable option for the passport bro to live very comfortably is to live in the country of his girlfriend/wife, because his earnings go further there.
Not really. Many women in these countries are independent and usually have own careers. We just believe in traditional roles. Am Malaysian married to Portuguese. I work and at the moment earn high income just like my husband but at the same time believe in traditional roles. We share everything and both contribute. That's very common in my country.
@@Mrtickleberriesthat never happened lol
And in the U.S. the women expect the man to pay but her expectations are non existent. Men have no problem with their role, so they’re going somewhere to get something in return
@@Mrtickleberries Really? Out of all the Gen Z and Millennial couples I know, none of them are like that. But maybe it's because my friend circle is middle class and every woman within it earns close to or way above median income.
@@rebeccachua61 That's great! But when I said "traditional" I meant a wife who stays at home to raise the kids, takes care of everything for the holidays, cooks, cleans, etc., and manages the house while her husband works. That's the image I had in my head when I used the word.
Speaking as a SEAsian woman here and I do agree there are some Western-Asian relationships that are really genuine and loving.
But for the majority... I feel sad for the American men who think they can better connect with Asian women because of shared traditional views.
I wonder, are you looking for the woman to be the only one holding up their end of traditional roles or will you really also fulfil your traditional role?
Sure you'll find an Asian woman who'll like you, maybe even love you, but that's only as long as you can actually also carry out your traditional role as a man, aka you must be able to provide and provide well. Why do you think many Asian women get with Western men instead of local men? It's because they see that the Western men can, for now at least, better financially provide for their family because they earn more. Once you cannot bring sufficient money home and be a traditional man and provide security, the lady will lose respect, think you're not man enough and move on.
On another related note... I am sure there are men who genuinely want to find love but we cannot deny the underlyihg racist tones behind all these. There IS the stereotype of Asian women being more subservient, and it's because of this that the American men thought to come to SEA in the first place.
But Asian women are traditional in that they are practical. You want me to be a traditional housewife and all? You better provide! The amount of affection shown is equivalent to the amount of financial security provided.
You sound like a modern western woman, pretending to be a Southe Asian woman
Yes!
I agree with your point questioning if these Western men are really prepared to fulfill their traditional roles - and not just their traditional role as defined by where they are from, but the traditional role of a man in the eyes of the Asia culture where the traditional wife is from as well. Else, there will be issues. If he straight up disagrees, and even resents, his wife's culture gender roles, then its like he is picking and choosing part of the tradition he likes and trying to discard what he doesn't like. This will not work because you can't just do that when they are ingrained in the wife's upbringing since it's where she grew up. Her culture is what made her traditional in his eyes.
Say the Western man wants to fulfill his traditional duties as a man in a marriage/family setting - but that's only according to his country's definition of traditional male role. There is also the traditional male role in that specific Asian culture that the wife will be keen to see him fulfill (maybe not all and not strictly - but it could potentially lead to disagreement, dispute, and dissolution of marriage in the end if he doesn't care much for them).
You maybe South Asian but you have the corrupt mindset of a liberal feminist white woman in the West. Therefore your opinions are one sided and you no longer relate nor know what these women back home want.
Nice try though.
Children statistically perform much better in life with single fathers than single mothers. Upright, devoted men are critical to the success of the family unit writ large.
A large portion of women in America voted for Kamala Harris because the belief that they would lose access to deleting their own imaginary babies.
Why should any family-oriented man fish in such a toxic dating pool?
„I want a traditional wife.“ Translation: „I want a woman who does all the housework and waits for me with dinner ready every evening dressed like a supermodel while working as well in order to contribute to household income and not demanding anything from me.“
And doesn't know how stupid I am so she can't never talk back
Not to mention always ready for his physical "needs."
You want a slave
Jealous of men going to foreign countries , you should be, arrogant and disrespectful American women DON"T deserve any men. And I got my wife from Japan, they have MORE money than Americans, and are MORE educated!! Same with South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore. They all love western men and have more money and education than Americans. So, you need to stop harassing Phillippines and Thailand!!
This is the comment of an unattractive western woman, or a loser dude.
The key to any happy relationship - whether with someone from your own culture or another - is mutual respect and harmony. Recognizing that you are on the same team and not in competition avoids conflict. Be happy for anyone who finds a loving relationship!
This in the end. Many nuances in between. Lucky if there are none. LOL
Pleeease, those men aren't looking for "mutual respect and harmony", they're looking for servants with benefits; LOVE wants the other to fulfill his AND her potential; LOVE sees & celebrates the WHOLE person, LOVE doesn't ask.. "What can you do for ME ?," but "How can I help you become the best version of yourself?".
That's part of the reason this is trending among men to look overseas. Many young women in the u.s., for example, have lost that understanding.
@@bumponlog Riiiiiight "It's her fault", that one's never been used before.
It is dating in a comunal society versus and individualistic society. Many Americans are so competitive and individualist that they can’t build with their partner as a true team
I don't have anything against seeking a traditional relationship but these guys saying that people in the west don't value them as much as southeast Asia, of course that is the case? The US passport, the US dollar, of course you have a higher position in this society than in the west? Let's be fair, traditional wives especially value a stable financial situation because they will have to depend on you to make money. Being a wealthy foreigner that earns USD definitely increases the chances of starting a relationship. You are in a better position than the a lot of the men of these southeast Asian countries.
sure but thats a normal expectation from normal women and its healthy to want a stable life. and thats what these eastern women can provide and give. but western women have stability and can have it with a regular average joe but what they want in a man is unrealistic and unhealthy. plus western women have become extremely liberated then becoming more conservative. they are destroying families and the lifes of children because of western believes. divorce rates in america initiated by women is about 80 percent. no hope for that.
Right, so if the locals can't cut it, and if what these prospective suitors are doing in their current country isn't working for them... this effectively solves for the current mismatch.
Go where your treated best no? Shouldn't everyone?
And that includes these women too, they should go wherever THEY feel they're treated best, wherever THEY feel their interests, future hopes, and core values are best suited, right?
Everyone is just trying to do the best they can.
What about femininity and family values above self. Sorry, but those values are still in abundance outside the matrix. To those men who can, get what you need b4 modern feminism takes a hold in those countries too.
@@RyanWildstarthe women get to have a passport beta simp who will pay for her and her family's bills and she also gets to see her alpha "ex" local guy to satisfy her other needs.
@@RyanWildstarcorrect but just remember you’re nothing but $$ and strong passport and social status to them. If you fail at providing that get ready to be kicked to the curb.
Something this basically balanced report ignored is the seemingly LARGE number of "bros" who are OLD. The interviewees were mostly young men. But what I see are lots of guys in 60s or older looking for 20-30 something, subservient women.
@@Mrtickleberries pedophiles
yes the whole asin pedo culture also doesn't help
I disagree, there’s a difference between a passport bro and a old man looking for young girls, that has been around forever.
But times have changed and now the young guys are all in on it coz all the woman in their area are chasing the top 5% of all men, they aren’t interested in anyone else leaving all the younger guys out alone.
The older guys have pension and Social Security checks. That is part of the reason. Another part of the reason is the older guys are much more likely to be happy settled down. I got this information from my Asian penpals.
I’m a an American guy in my 60s. To most American women, I am invisible here. I really don’t have that much choice if I don’t want to die alone.
Don’t forget also ignoring the disproportionate tendency passport bros have to go to cities/countries that happen to be well known for brothels
They want "traditional" but I don't see them hitting up conservative, traditional women in the U.S. who can't find a match because they don't want sex on the first date.
Because they are almost non-existent...no Godly man wants first dt frnction..but Godly mn are looked down upon in society. I do agree that many men are hypcrites and do z1na though..But I am a muslim and we have traditional relationships..its prohibited for us to look at or tch wmn other than our wives..our wmn also cover the most so....
That beacuse in America there are virtually no traditional woman who are conservative and those that are men very quickly marry them.
Exactly. I am a traditional woman but can't find a guy to save my life.
@@Feliciationscooked 😂 imagine
and this is the hypocrisy of men and those passport bros. They are sleeping around with those asian women and then if lucky find a asian woman to finally seattle down.
I’m not a passport bro, but I can see why people are drawn to living abroad. For me, moving to the Philippines has been more about embracing a simpler, healthier lifestyle and finding happiness in the culture, nature, and slower pace of life. It’s not about running away from something-it’s about running toward a more fulfilling way of living.
I love the Philippines :)
You seem to be one of the few men on here who'd do it for the right reasons.
The main problem i have that these men are specifically doing this to get a "traditional wife" not immersing with the culture and generally love the people and so want to married within it.
I feel you
Spot on Chris.
Many lower income women will use the guy as a passport to the western world. Give it six months to a year and bye bye. I loved the comment of the one guy saying they were looking for more feminine women. He means a woman he can keep trapped in a relationship because of economic circumstances.
Yep. Don’t go somewhere seeking love. Just let it happen naturally
That's true for a man wanting to bring a female back to his country. However, that's not the definition of a Passport Bro. PPB's are men who've moved to another country or in the process. Outside of that criteria (like 90-Day Fiance), they're not a Passport Bro
Or it just might mean that he prefers more feminine women. I personally find butch or aggressive women a huge turn-off, so it's no surprise that my wife of 20 years is a very feminine women - who I met in my home city.
At the end of the day no 1 is begging women to be with yall thats y u want to see them fail soo bad if I can have them no 1 can ,so u don't want them and u Don want them to be happy pick 1 and leave men alone plz,coz man have left yall long ago yet u stay talking like someone is listening
if you are smart you can have her for 3 years until she gets permanent status in the west. But of you are smarter you will never ever bring get back to a western country. stay over there.
Just FYI: Not every Filipino woman wants to be a traditional wife.
But have empathy for impoverished women who have to subscribe to these gender roles by dating "passport bros" who also look for "traditional" subservient women. It's their way out of poverty.
+1 Class plays a part as well. A lower class brings different values to the table which are subjectively prioritized.
What about Filipina who doesn't want to be a traditional wife while the man provides but have the audacity to be jealous when the man hires an older maid who would perform the traditional roles of cleaning and cooking?
Its changing now more women are being educated and are in the work force soon a lot of them would not marry foreigners as a safety net for financial burden.
Just FYI not every western guy dating in the philippines is traditional. Most guys coming are somewhere in between. They are most likely looking for an educated filipina, and these men are also not old.
Oh right, as if all the PPBs are total losers. Please.
Traditional mindset = Having sex after marriage.
I dont think many can claim to have a traditional mindset anymore.
Bs, many Viet girls won't spend night or sex before marriage. Not that it bothered me. And I married one. But also know many others who no sex til married.
It is long gone, here jn the philippines most only marry after years of dating then if unplanned pregnancy happens they will marry then before giving birth or after giving birth.. And Teenage pregnancy rate is going up its crazy.
Traditional realtionship: You have to introduce yourself to the father first who doesn`t just wanna see your bank account, but also you being a good person. Wonder how many of them would pass that test.
The problem is the women won't have many sex after marriage. Might as well have it before and don't get married
No you don't think
leah referring to western or non asian women as not “real women” is abbbsolutely insane to me as a woman. i could never form my mouth to call any other group of women less than a woman because of the way they choose to navigate THEIR life and THEIR relationships. women are not and SHOULD not be a monolith.
Glad someone also noticed that bullshit.
Its towards western, and she's not far off. Most here are masculine, she looks and acts pure feminine sooooo...yeah, real women. Edit: also XX, didn't think I have to say this, but its 2024.
Given that the subject is to do with 'passport bros' shows its not just a few men but a whole movement of men, same like the feminist movement in the west. If the women in the west weren't so selfish, arrogant, ego driven looking for the 666 and being entitled to believe they deserve everything just because.. maybe we wouldn't have a 'feminist movement' and 'passport bros'. As an englishman living in Asia, I love my country, but for how it used to be with no social media and everyone can be more satisfied with normal ways.. but yet here we are.
Because you're a narcissistic solipsist and you're triggered
It's true
It’s funny cause all these guys keep saying “traditional” about the women but what does that even mean? What do they really know about the “traditions” of Thailand? Seems like they just insert “traditional” as a stand-in for favorable power imbalance or overall status. And that is what it is… I get why many guys would find that appealing but they gotta drop the “traditional” term. Just total bs.
Traditional is incel code for women who will actually date them. These dudes are the epitome of the term lower back home.
Just to be clear, I don’t think all expats are… I’m talking about guys who turn it into their whole identity, appear in content like this and use terms like traditional.
A soft loving warm hearted women who isn't combative or argumentative and allows him to do what he needs to do to provide. Go to work do the driving fix things make things care and support and mentor. Good luck in the west
Traditional means 1950s housewife.
@reneemcdowell2848 when men would give up their bodies to provide for their wife and children so they could enjoy the fruits of his labour and work into retirement because it was a duty and not complain about it. Even modern women in the west want a man to provide for them which is contradictary to what they say. All my peers who are female 37 unmarried ask me where are all the good men? What they mean is where are the tall rich successful men... They aren't checking for you girlie lol. Who wants a combative girl boss wife? I want a mother and a wife lol
Is this video basically saying that unwanted, unqualified, rejected men from the states are moving to Asia where women are less demanding with lower standards for men? 😆
That was my take !
None of the men had anything going for them . Not personality , kindness , looks or really anything . Lol
Even if that's 100 percent true, how does it affect you? Why do you care?
yes.
yup 😂😂 those men are miserable and i feel for the asian women . Tf.
how come a guy looking for traditional relationship lives with a girl he's not married with for 2 years? Is it "traditional"?
Bingo !!!
They are only traditional when it suits them.
Getting married is not a way to show a person or couple is traditional. Traditional woman is someone who can cook, clean, and take good care of her children and men. Traditional men are those who can provide for their women and children. Many years ago, a couple only needed to have a ceremony to let other people know they were a couple and no marriage certificate existed back then - that's traditional!
It takes 2 to tango. The guy might be looking for a traditional relationship and the girl might choose not to. So his only option will be to live with her in a "non traditional" relationship.
He wants to easily be able to up and leave when he's done playing "house".
@@timd6479 Traditional is NOT defined same way in Asia. Grow up kid. World does not function as per your whims. Marriage is prerequisite for Traditional men and women here
as one tiktok girl said, " you don't see passport bros from other countries coming to USA to meet girls." I think that says it all. LMAO
Western, feminist women with a superiority complex make the best wives. Said no man ever.
exactly
🤣😂🤣😂 💯 they're waaaay too entitled and the expectations are INSANE.
What man would want an entitled and ultra liberal American woman???
That's an interesting post, considering that I have heard of passport bros who go to other western nations to find love.
As a women in my 20s, I believe you should go where you’re celebrated and also know sometimes things take time to find the right person, and it’s not guaranteed for everyone.
That's the right attitude😊
It just perpetuates colonial mentality to white worship. Asians need to change their mindset
True enough
You guys all hate us.
I second this
The nativity of this men is hilarious... I've been living in Thailand for more than 2 years. I am not saying you can't find true love or a healthy relationship here, but I am rired of seeing this same men complaining about "transactional relationships" and making a tantrum when they discover the beautiful, feminine and traditional woman that "fell in love with them" only wants financial support for her and her family (and NO, I am not judging this women for that at all). They are mnat sociological studies about this phenomena in Asia that explains why this women seek for foreigners instead of the local men.
Let's be clear. Traditional family values in western societies have evolved into something else. The statuos quo has been broken and we are immersed inside the transition. It's uncomfortable and painful, but it's happening either we like it or not. The problem with passport bros is not that women are changing, it's that they are incapable of adaptation.
Sad but true for both men and women, we are in a limbo that not everyone is going to be able to get out of. Anyway. I still believe in true affection and deep connections. Let's hope most of humanity can find the right balance between cultivating their own individuality without loosing the connectivity awareness.
The real problem is that USA white people are not even capable of be real.
Sorry but you are missing the point. The problem most men have in the west is that unless you are handome over 6ft tall and six figure salary most women will not even consider you. On Tinder (their own statistics) typically women only swipe right on 5% of men wheras men swipe right on 45% of women. This has created a huge imbalance and many single men have no chance of ever getting married and having a family. Most decent guys will not approach a woman in person for fear of being seen as a creep. So what is he supposed to do. Of course there are some horrible men that go to these countries for shall we say not for nice purposes. and most men I speak to utterly condemn this type of behaviour. Most men want equality but there are too many double standards e.g. in my old job women were allowed to say they wanted a rich man and even could comment on his body parts but if a man said he wanted a traditional woman he would be fired.
@@saveandinvestwithgiorgiolo8375 I disagree. I can assure you, there are PLENTY of women who don't need a man to have a six figure salary or to be extremely handsome. Of course, women want to date someone that they are attracted to, as do men. Just like women, men have a beauty standard. But I don't understand why there's so much force on women to "be kind" and date men they aren't attracted to when men have nowhere near the same pressure to date women they aren't attracted to.
If you're old, short, bald and fat, the women in Thailand aren't going to be anymore attracted to you than the women back home. The only reason why they might act like they are is because they are in a third world country, and they want to get out. If you're seen as a creep in your home country when you approach women, the solution isn't to go to Asia and hit on women there - the solution is to look inward. But passport bros won't do that, because the only things on their mind is having sex with young women (sometimes even children) and having a family that they have no intention to support. That's just the reality..
@@saveandinvestwithgiorgiolo8375 still most men are married to women from their own country, and there are way more in relationships than 5%, that is why yours is totally exaggerated. 90% of my German friends are happily married with equally succesful partners and they are not all rich, tall or extremely attractive. Sometimes the men make less money. My husband doesn't have a job right now, but I do support us without a question. Most Asian women would be out of the door, because there is a deal between beauty/s*x and providing for most of these couples.
Interesting- but all I know is my uncle became a passport bro and married a lady from the Philippines and then bright her back home. They had a baby together and she seemed nice- but it wasn’t a happy ending. She got her citizenship and brought her parents over- then divorced my uncle, got full custody of their child and took half of everything. He thought he married for love and she’d be a traditional at home wife and mother- but it’s not how it turned out. It’s so sad!
Her long term goal defeated his short sighted goal. 😂😂😂😂😂
Wanting to marry and start a family is shortsighted goal. What world are we living in
Was he very old like 55 and the lady was 23
@fool1124 the guy was old and had an outdated mindset
It's her ROI. No young person would ever want to be with anyone close to the age of their parents. We Filipinos keep warning these old passport bros. But they never listen
It's all about the money. Average Western men seeking their ideal wife in 3rd worlds coz it's cheaper, and Asian women dating Western men to escape poverty.
As a Filipino I don't care, as long as both parties are happy, and are planning to get married.
+1 Same! Only issue now is the culture gap.
Yep partly right, but it’s the same in the west, they want men with money, so take your best option.
Every woman wouldn’t mind a guy with money. It isn’t the end all and won’t insure love or success in the relationship. But it will get you noticed and you can have more dating options to find the girl you like
@ well said
Thank you for your thoughtful comment :)
Lived in thailand for 21 years, i guarantee many will end up disappointed
They'll be disappointed as soon as they find out they have to take care off the wife... and her entire family.
If you date into poverty and are seen as their 'way out', you're gonna have the uncle of her uncle asking for a loan.
Well i guess all women are the same. Lots of bs argument just create so that they can have full control over men. If a man refuse and "fight" back, he immediately being accused by one of various reason. Double standard are truly evil, but most men don't realize that until they live in one.
can you explain why?
Because asian culture is like you have to live for your families like not just for your life which means you should be stable in everything like literally everything if youre to marry an asian woman. Im an asian so i knows very well especially if youre having a relationship with a girl with low income @joaquinagaga9300
I am a Filipina married to an American for 13 years now. I am a Scientist and he is an IT professional. I am far from subservient to my husband but I respect his decisions and I value his opinions. I love how caring Western men are when they really love somebody. My only job is to pretty much keep my son alive. So he did most of the cooking and household chores. He is also very loyal. Had I married my Filipino ex bf, I would’ve been left at home doing all the chores while he’s out working and doing other extra curricular activities. You see in Asia, there’s a double standard when it comes to cheating. Men are view “masculine “ or macho when they have many women on the side whereas women are viewed as disgusting whores when they commit the same mistake. Not all Filipino men cheat obviously there’s a few good ones left I’m sure.
What you describe is a typical “western style” marriage, not what these creeps are looking for there.. similarly many men in the west have affairs and that’s why the divorce rate is so high
No money no honey... Money runs out he will be kicked out

Nobody wants a guy on social security in USA, in third world countries they are in demand no matter how old or ugly he is.
@@Frivals and your money goes a lot further in most SE Asian countries. If you have a remote job it is easy to stay indefinitely.
So where's the difference?
From what I've seen, the vast majority of single men who come to southeast Asian countries aren't looking for just one girl to be serious with, rather just many casual relationships. As a man, I don't understand this at all. I think a close connection is so much more valuable than many casual flings
There's a difference between PPB (who are looking for a wife) and s3x tourists.
Nope. From what I've learned from research is the exact opposite. The majority of actual Bros are looking for love, and the same old tourists that go to those places like they always have are being confused with them. The Passport Bros are the guys that want a wife, those other dudes are the same old sex hungry tourists that's always been going to these places since before WW2.
lol
They're going there for female attention because they're lacking it on their own turf. When they receive an abundance of female attention in these impoverished countries, their quest for finding a wife goes out the window.
That's the point this video is missing. Most passport bros DO NOT travel for a wife. They are sëx tourists, plain and simple. Dressing it up as dating doesn't change the facts.
24:36 - Let’s be honest, this woman isn’t exactly a victim here. She was searching for "true love," but only with someone who had a Western passport. On the other hand, the Western guy was also looking for "true love," but specifically with an Asian partner he could use & get rid off. Neither of them was upfront about their real intentions. The woman likely wanted the financial security and benefits that come with being with a Western passport holder, while the man seemed to be after a casual, no-strings-attached relationship. In the end, both got what they wanted. Simple as that. LM
It's more like a deal 🤝 for both I wonder where the hell is love it's modern world be single and enjoy life why take any risk just for relationship s
I can`t believe they titled this documentary with "searching for love". I mean these men go there to buy the physical aspect of the whole thing or a girl that is desperate enough to escape poverty to sell herself for years and actually marry a foreigner who is like that. It`s about money for the girl and ownership for the guy, nothing to do with love.
The power dynamic is not the same. The Western guy hold more power.
Not to mention she's like 50 💀
She's probably not aware that Western passport is not a guarantee anymore of a better life.
I saw this in Japan in the 90s. I met man after Amercan man who said, "I only date Japanese girls," like a 50 year old American men dating a 20 year old Japanese woman. They totally misunderstood the surface agreeableness of Japanese women. After marriage, they would find out how much cultural differences made in the relationship.
Yes, the divorce rate of japanese women with foreign men is like 50%. Very high. But the divorce rate of japanese men with western women is same as if it would be a pure japanese couple. Actually its even a bit lower.
Many european women get married now to a japanese or korean man. The number is increasing constantly. As a german woman, my husband is also japanese

Don't forget about anti male culture and family laws. Men are wising up.
No marriage in the West, means not losing your money and kids in divorce.
And that’s why it’s also getting worst in places like Philippines and whatnot these woman or young woman get SIMPS to send them money just for text communication or some pictures exchanged so they don’t really want to cherish any genuine relationship 😅😂😂😂
It's incredibly concerning how quickly social media has degraded society--on a global scale.
I did my Masters degree in Media Studies 10 years ago and even back then we were actively researching the ways in which bad actors could use social media to spread division, hate, misinformation, and even terrorism (this was back when terror groups were literally using social media to groom disaffected young people to join ISIS).
And has only gotten WORSE since then. I no longer use any personal social media and the few sites that I do visit I make sure to actively shake up my algorithm from time to time so I'm not caught up in any echo chambers.

19:11 I'm a Thai person working at an international company in Thailand. I've met a lot of Westerners who moved to Thailand for work (and probably for love). Moving here doesn't mean giving up on success. Just being a native English speaker already gives you unique skills. I know some people in my company , and I often think they couldn't be this successful in their own countries.
As for relationships in the west, have you seen how many singles there are? Its average women and average men who are not finding each other, due to hole host of factors. So average men go online and see there is interest in them in thailand, so they go where they feel wanted. I really dont think the western man feel wanted by the western women anymore.
You are also more exotic in a foreign country. But if they are good ppl who want serious relationships, then good for them.
Personally i fell for a filipina nurse here in Denmark, I have been in relationships here but she is so different, caring nurtering and family oriented. But also modern, and I also help around the house and with the kids. So traditional it isnt. I just feel wanted and treasured with her, I didnt get that from the local women, and I am not bad looking at all.
@@ronnie5329 you 'help around the house and with the kids'? You sound like a real catch.
As a person who has lived in Canada, I'd say that the gender wars in the West might be steeped in deep misunderstanding and social media making the West lose the nuance they used to have. In Asia I don't necessarily see it us asians as "upholding traditional gender roles", another way to look at it is we understand and respect the equal powers of the matriarchy and patriarchy. For example in the workplace, in Singapore we don't really bat an eye having a woman boss. But in the West, its actually a huge deal. Where dominance/competition is the pervasive energy of a country - everyone will be at war with one another in some way or another. Even women against men because of their version of the patriarchy is a lot more combative in nature than ours. Whereas in SEA where we uphold collaboration - I think we see the importance of everybody's role in family and work.
Just offering a different perspective!
*update* I don't condone the West or The East. I personally like to take goods from both camps. It'll be great to understand global political and cultural systems and form and shape one's own identity and not feel swayed into tribal fallacies or availability biases.
No one who has travelled to more than just Canada and Mexico would disagree with you. We know this to be true
Yes there is a reason why Asia has had female presidents and prime ministers and mom/granny dominated homes whereas US has never had a woman preisdent and any attention or position attained by a woman is seen as attack on men and hurts male ego there
That's true and were really traditional but we don't care havung a woman president and woman boss and i find it weird that the USA still has a lot of people who don't see women as equals.
It's true. No respect for the common desires. Very combative, individualistic. Your partner is not an enemy. Both sides need to come together to avoid this toxic western concept.
THIS, as a canadian im tired of the gender war, all my life ive either met abusive women, its getting tiring dealing with people who are angry at everyone. a lot of young men just want to meet a women who is similar age and has morals and her own hobbies. i find its way easier dating foreign women, even from western europe. if they could stop the gender war, maybe young people could get along again
Oh! Welcome! Living ATMs, we all love you!❤
Jesus is the way the truth and the life. No one can go to the Father except through him.❤️
Knowing Jesus is knowing peace, protection and provision ❤️
Jesus saves, Jesus heals, Jesus grants peace , Jesus forgives and Jesus loves you.
Women in the west treat men like livinf ATMs like everywhere else. It whats worth spending on
Lmao this is how all those “passport bros” are seen to these non American women
sure ATM, not problem. Better than child support, taking half of my net worth in divorce. I love being an ATM to my Thai girl. Much better for value for the buck even after four years.
Lol
What a great documentary. Very informative and it showed different opinions.
If Western women don't want to be traditional and feminine that is fine, however, men absolutely have the right to go seek out a woman that meets his criteria. A lot of people in the West forget that freedom is a two-way street that applies to both men and women 🤷♂️
I’m a feminist and I agree with this 100%. As long as no one’s denigrating the other party and these passport bros aren’t courting their female interests under false pretenses/abusively, I’m not invested in this discussion
It’d be dishonest to even assert that dating dynamics haven’t changed with the advent of feminism/industrialization

Asian has more female empowerment than america.
They arent objectified and these countries literally have female presidents once in a while.
Just say directly
A 50 yr old poor man could work in thailand to younger ladies due to dollar exchange.
These passport bros after divorce don't want to look for women of similar age group but rather find things in poor countries.
It's same as why manufacturing shifted to Asia due to cheap cost of labour.
Due to, too high income inequality in america, passport bros can find cheap temporarily wife in asia.
That’s fine with me they can go find their dumb uneducated submissive moron and I’ll continue being a straight strong and independent woman who doesn’t let a man tell her what to do
Western women: No value and scream at anyone point it out. Create a lot of nonsense to make themselves look good and scream at anyone point it out. And teach men how to be men, in other word, to be slave giving her all attention and money.
You work for 40yrs to have $1m in your retirement, Meanwhile some people are putting just $10k in a meme coin for just few months and now they are multi millionaires. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life

As a proud independent South East Asian woman living in the west and married to a Westerner , I especially found what the Filipino lady said quite insulting to all women.. are you saying only SEA woman are “real woman” and the only feminine ones around ? Many of my Western girlfriends are feminine, beautiful , financially independent and all they want are men who can “man up”… meaning having a relatively good career, be thoughtful and share the load in family duties .. and having lived my life overseas now for decades , I can see both sides rather well. Western women are not adverse to dating “average joes” like the content creator living in the Phillipines say .. in fact I know they are quite happy to date and average Joe if that guy has a regular paying job , has great hygiene, had integrity and is a decent person to their family, friends and anyone else they meet .Maybe some these passport bros need to look in the mirror and ask themselves some tough questions 😊
nah she is pretty spot on.
As another South East Asian woman, it was off-putting to me too. How sad that to make ourselves feel good we often feel like we need to put down another group. It is quite clearly pride or arrogance speaking on her part; it may also be that she is parroting the language of her spouse, who wisely chose not to speak on camera.
Yeah when she said “a real woman” I’m like oook. If that lady lived in the US she wouldn’t be dating or marrying that American guy lol. White men are seeing as attractive there and their dollars or other currencies triple to the currency of the Philippines. I don’t think this has to do with women. It’s just the fact that foreigners have better luck outside of a first world country. That’s just a fact …
Well said and it's nice to see a woman standing up for other women and not play the game made by these PPB losers. Western women are no where as bad as these guys make them out to be. They just don't want low value men that love stereotyping and generalizing others based on where they came from. These men have no value, no character, no career and not even a good personality.
Men are not meant for house chores..when a rbber comes who steps up him or you?
My grandparents were married over 70 years. When I say that people say oh how sweet. I went to visit them in their apartment in NYC in 1980’s. They were in their early 70’s (they both lived well into their 90’s) I remember sitting on their bed with my grandmother and my grandfather yelled at her where was his belt. She yelled back it was on the bed and he should only hang himself with it. I think they were sick of each other. They were born around 1900 and women didn’t have many choices.
Im a Japanese born and raised in the US, but when choosing a Man i still prefer Asian, surely one day i will comeback to Japan
Why😅?
white men are so overrated tbh they age like milk too
I'm Chinese and grew up in Canada. Honestly I feel the same. It's cool and fun being friends, but there are just too many family values that don't align when 2 ppl start dating.
After the hoe phase ,right?
@cloudfish1829 hmm.. culture valuation different..
Almost all women including those who are professionally successful, marry men for their financial status, so what's wrong if a girl from S.E Asia would want the same for her?
NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT LOCAL MEN IN THESE COUNTRIES
It’s because most men are invisible…durrrrr. No one cares about men or their plight, that’s why Trump got elected
Theyre fucked. Unless islamic laws are strong and prohibitive in your 3rd world country, you have no chance.
i first hand witness where the local men will sleep with the foreigners wife/girlfriend apartments which the foreigner is paying. Local men still have their mouth piece to make the girls laugh and conversate something that foreigners do not have. The local men have no jobs and nothing going for them but they still manage to have 1 wife, 2 kids and a girlfriend in the city, and a ex-wife in another province, and a ex wife in another city, believe me the local men are not simps, they are not stupid, they do not give out money for relationships or sex.
and i forgot most of these woman that are looking for foreigner husbands/boyfriends already have children from their local man. So another example that the local men have no issues getting their local woman.
they do each other.
So men should stay and choose women that they think is not okay with them? We don't get to choose? Whats next? Collar around the neck? You be you. Be happy, be successful, and leave us with our own choice.
Exactly. What is needed is for dudes to go full Trump level mean on these Women and their weak Men allies who side with them on everything including against other Men. What Passport Bros should say is "Mind your business, and go away and leave me to my life!"
faaax!
Why is that NO passport bros from foreign countries are coming to USA to marry American women? 😂
Maybe cause they are from first world countries and go to Europe to find European men?
Because American women don't need or want them to came after them
Because they aren't worth 💩
You can figure that out I’m sure
Not even for a green card, it seems. In my case, my family in the US was interested in setting me up with a SE Asian woman if I wanted to migrate.
Everyone is entitled to there own beliefs,if western women don't want to become traditional wives that's their choice but they have no right to enforce their beliefs in other men & women
Watch a few videos made by divorced "trad" wives and you'll begin to understand why average American women are no longer willing to sacrifice, put up with domestic violence and other forms of abuse, give up their careers - all in the name of love, then find their husband cheating. When the divorce is final, many are left homeless and destitute - even with laws that supposedly "favor" women. These ex wives sacrificed their careers to stay home, raise children, care for their husband, and run the household, only to find themselves reentering the workforce with outdated skills and, as an older person, facing severe hiring discrimination.
I get it. I'm a normal dude with a normal job in the US. Whenever I go to other countries the type of attention I get from women vs what I get in the US is night and day. Women I wouldn't have a chance with in the US will be all over me in other places. I don't plan on ever moving to another country for a relationship, but I definitely understand why others do.
Came to the same conclusion as you did but in reverse. Every time I travel into the US there's some sort of force field that makes me invisible. At first I didn't know what was happening and felt miserable. But the moment I stepped out bam! Same as you describe it. I'm married now, so happily don't have to worry about it, but yes, there's something in the water.
As an American guy, I have to say that I really love cooking and am quite good at it...I also am good at cleaning! Most girls are quite surprised and impressed by my domestic skills...especially when I cook for them and even give them some food to take home. I do that for all of my friends....both men and women! Maybe I'll make someone a good housewife one day!
These guys wouldn't be able to deal with a strong modern woman. And those women wouldn't give them a second glance. Of course they went to Asia seeking 'ladies'. If they only knew who they are actually dating... such irony!
Strong modern woman is exactly what men dont want.
judging from your attitude, i wouldnt want to deal with that judgemental nonsense all day either. Be strong and alone.
It's crazy how much "Red pill" topics keep making it main stream. Back in 2017 to 2020 it was mostly an underground topic that normies had no clue about. Popularity usually ruins something because of greed.
you sound like you're scared of more competition for these women who are considered "easy" but one look at you and i can understand why.
It's only now becoming popular on tiktok, it's ALWAYS been a thing in the UK because of Hong Kong and it's Indonesian/fillipina population. The way you mention 'normies' tells me the problem you have is something else other than it being underground
The only thing changing is that the dating environment in first world countries + China is becoming increasingly hostile which causes more people to choose this route, not necessarily because it has become mainstream
@@hayley4032 things change when an Asian country progresses... South Korea was like that, until Kpop replaced PAssport bro with Passport Sisters, because of women hooked up with Kpop... no difference with Philippines, Thailand... as Asian pop culture rise, Western bro becomes ugly bro in the eyes of women...
Pretty sure no one goes to Asia anymore for that. Mostly Dominican Republic now.
How is this new? The term was "mail order bride" in the pre-internet era.
I’m an ok looking Asian guy who did ok while in NYC. Dates all sorts of races and on occasion, would land a hottie. When I moved to Utah and then to Austin, I could not get dates. In fact, the rejections made me felt like I was beneath them and….repugnant. It humbled the sh*t out of me and put me in a sad state. I have a lot of self love but going through that was pretty brutal.
I finally moved to Thailand and spent time in Hong Kong and Malaysia for a few weeks prior. OMG.
What was I missing out on? I feel attractive again. And these are qualified, smart, juicy, beautiful feminine women. What had the women in general become back in the states?
Haven made the jump, I questioned everything I knew back with dating women in the NYC and other parts of the states.
Go where you’re treated best. Doesn’t matter if it’s romance, finance/banking or lifestyle, etc. you deserve it. Chart your own path and learn to love from the heart.
Don’t despair, bro! You went from one of the best dating markets for men in the U.S. to one of the toughest. For context, California-especially San Francisco-is notoriously challenging for men in the dating scene. I’ve done extensive research on this, looking at metrics like gender ratios, which are heavily skewed in the Bay Area. To give you an idea, I know this girl there who would only date anesthesiologists. She wasn’t even particularly stunning, yet she had the audacity to "check them out" like library books until she "found the right one." And, hey, its fine! SF just simply heavily favors women.
My solution was simple: I moved to a dating market that’s far more favorable for men-Asia. The difference was night and day, and I’ve never looked back since
Haha, never mind. I only read half of your post!
Boy I am french but Utah is a racist place ...
NUC hadms a high gay population. You executed from being straight.
It is because in recent years the wave of anti-Asian in US and Europe . Asian especially males haven't been well portrayed in the West msm for a long time.
I think the issue is far simpler. In the US and to a much extent in Canada, in general men need women but women do not need men - hence, any relationship between them will be deeply unequal. Many men attempt to find a partner from a culture where men and women need each other and hope that a relationship with such a person will be more balanced and fair.
Women may think they can replace a man with a paycheque. There is a price to pay for that misconception - can't deny nature and expect to get off scot free, folks...
It'll even out soon as a ton of women are remaining single and growing old with no kids. They are literally being erased from society. Thank God.
I am a teacher and I am married to a Belgian (not rich😅). People here in Europe thought that I was bought by my man and was uneducated. They were really surprised when I said that I am teaching English here in Germany 😅😅😅
General qc, so what’s the difference between those guys and yellow fever? As an Asian woman, I’ve come across plenty of people who approach with lines like, “You’re not like the usual white/Black/etc girls,” and I’ve always really disliked those kinds of people. I’ve also always wondered what kind of person they are back in their own country. Like, are they struggling to fit in there and that’s why they’re acting like this here?
I mean, coming to another country with new dreams or goals is brave (and hey, we welcome your dollars), but… what makes those guys any different from yellow fever? Are they just yellow fever with enough money for a plane ticket?
Yellow fever is more of a race fetish rather than values.
To be fair it’s usually combination of guys with yellow fever and women with white fever that are booking up. Makes for a very strange bubble in a lot of these places.

Did you just suggest that sex trafficking is a Southeast Asia thing, knowing what we all know about the Eastern European sex trade? It always peaks its dirty head.
Will all the money pouring to Ukraine from the US and European Union, I don't think it's still the case ;)
Sex trafficking sadly is a thing. Not really localized anywhere.
I date interracially... typically mean old black women... cause they know how to run a home and know how to take care of their man when they get a good one. I don't fall in love with doormats. I find sleeping with one eye open when I've been bad is invigorating!!
Go to where you’re treated best fellas. You don’t have any sort of duty to accept poor treatment to the benefit of another
I wonder what Thai or Filipino men think or how they feel about this phenomenon. Indirectly, they are also affected by it. Who are they going to marry?
It's usually the old head retirees and passport bros competing for women in there and then they brag about it to other expats I've seen it in angeles city and dumaguete
Filipino guy here. I understand why foreigners choose Filipina wives. I wouldn't dare date and marry Western women. Interracial marriage is a drop in a bucket in the Philippines. An overwhelming majority of Filipinos marry Filipinas and vice versa. We know what to expect from each other. Mixed marriages are accepted here. It has been going on for decades. It just became trendy to call them passport bros nowadays. I have foreign neighbors. They fit nicely in the community. I have relatives who married foreigners. They are part of the family. Our society is really a melting pot. Many of our top athletes, celebrities, politicians etc. are from mixed marriages. In my circle, many of the Filipinas who married foreigners were not really popular among local guys. I think it's a win-win. Foreigners will be okay here as long as they don't disrespect the women and the culture.
In my experience, the Filipinas who go after foreigners dont fit the filipino beauty standards or are often single mothers.
The high quality Filipina and Thai women almost exclusively stick to their own
they still have alot of filipina women
I am not sure about the whole logic about feminine women in Asia. Look at East Asia like Korea. Isnt it having the same issues as the West? So its just economics in SEA countries.
Women in the West aren't feminine by nature anymore. Want to see what we are dealing with ? Look up Lily Phillips.
No. Korean Men are much harsher in the treatment of their Women. Generally, South Korea is as advanced as the USA, Philippines, and Thailand are not. The culture is more old fashioned.
It's not really about men and women. it's actually about a collectivist culture vs individualism. The traditional models support women to learn and stay in the feminine. If she is moved to a system of individualism, she has to learn how to aggressively compete, too. Its better for the men to live and marry into those collectivist cultures and countries than to bring the wife into his individualism culture, because their kids will end up individualist too and the cycle will repeat. I know people are a bit afraid of being replaced but a model has to be sustainable, it cant be artificially upheld by lobby groups.
I miss the days when we had to socialize and interact off dating apps and in social places.
2:40 If these men want a feminine woman they do exist in the USA, the same effort used for traveling can be applied to traveling around USA. If a man wants a traditional woman in the USA, he needs to be ready to take on the traditional role. It's an expensive decision to provide for two people in the west, unless you have it.
Or..they can choose to do what they have done, since they wanted to try a different path. It apparently was the right choice since it worked for them.
They know traditional "feminine" women exist in the US, but they don't want them because they can't afford that lifestyle here. The cost of living in SEA or South America is significantly lower than in the US, which is why so many of them (that aren't just after sex tourism) are trying to live in these places permanently.
Thank you for taking multiple perspectives and making this great report. During these times of significant gender divides, it's important to hear from both sides. Originally I saw passport bros negatively because I thought they were preying on "less affluent women", but I now see that judgement carries a racist judgement for the women who have agency and consent to the relationship while also disregards the genuine struggles the average western joe has with romantic relationships in his home country. While I understand there are distasteful and disgusting passport bros, many are just looking for a relationship and there are consenting, financially independent women who meet them. Regulation and social stigma towards the bad guys should happen, but it shouldn't bleed over to those who are genuinely finding love and partnership in another country.
If one partner is financially at the mercy and forced to submit to the will of another that’s exploitation. If someone plans and designs such a scenario so they can have that power over another they’re a predator. Just my opinion.
@@alinad2928 I could be wrong, but you appear to either dislike Men or dislike traditional men led family structure. Men and women at times disagree on structure and leadership. So we should go to the source of what structure is set outside of ourselves. In Genesis, God first created man and he was directed to rule over God's creation. God then created the amazing woman to be the helpmate to the man. Both are valuable, but the roles are different. The man is to lead and the woman is to submit to her husband. Her submission to her husband is out of respect and submission to God. The Bible commands the man to love his wife to the extent the he should lay his life down for her. It's the order that God has established and both men and women are blessed by following those commands.
Ephesians:
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands
1Peter
Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered
That's what's happening in the united states, men are being exploited through marriage laws
It's not just an opinion. It is the real situation.
Thatkind of man are dangerous, violent and also criminals.
The filipino keeps referring to herself as a 'real woman' as if women in the west are not
Women in the west don't even know what or cannot answer the question "what is a woman "
Most women in the West try to be men.
From the perspective of non Western women, and a growing number of Western men, Western women are not real women.
STD rates are high in Southeast Asia because sex ed isn’t taught or talked about enough. Stay safe over there.
Asian women are not 403s like western women.
And HIV levels are high in America
Very funny, if you for prostitutes probably the case. I have been in Thailand on off four 10 years. The STD testing is amazing, PCR and hundreds of tests. Went to the Mayo Clinic and asked for the same and they said they don't offer that kind of testing because insurance will not pay for it.
Yeah its pretty clean here in the USA
When people talk about “traditional” in the context of gender I’m going to need them to be more specific. What tradition, in what time, by which people? Because gender roles are different in different places at different times. As evidenced by what these passport bros are doing!
No not really. Gender Roles were pretty much uniform apparently within the dominant realms. Roman Empire and Han China the Men and Women had similar roles. Throughout Western Civilization's history especially, the Male/Female roles were very much similar regardless of whether it was Ancient Egypt in 2000 B.C., or Greece 500 B.C., or Roman Empire, 400 A.D., Charlemagne's Empire, 800 A.D., British Empire 1750 A.D., USA, 1950 A.D., Patriarchal realms all, and the details differ, but Men and Women had clearly defined roles and the Egyptian and 1950's USA Men would recognize "Manliness" from "Femininity". So, NO, it doesn't really differ that much, with the mighty realms of history. Which the USA happens to be part of the tradition of.
I am white, married to a Chinese woman. This statement is accurate. More traditional marriage. I have been married to two American white women in the past. I was used to get them out of their parents homes. Once the newness wore off, and I am not six feet tall making six figures. They moved on. I was never looking to be a passport bro. But on a dare, I did it. Am very happy I did.
American white women are NO GOOD!
Two failed marriage in the past? You're the denominator.
Brother they want just passport
Life is easy when you are white.
I just think they’re dating down because they want some form of control. Having someone that doesn’t question you. Crazy.
😂
Sorry but this is nonsense. If you look at the statistics in many western countries woman are only going for the top 5% of guys. Just look at the stats on Tinder woman are only swiping on 5% of men and in person it is very difficult to approach woman for fear as being seen as a creep so what are these men supposed to do if they want a family. If they are rejected in their own countries let them have a chance of finding love abroad. Of course those who exploit woman should be utterly codemned.
men in a nutshell😂
Should've asked the asian men too what they think
Exactly. They didn’t touch on why Asian women are going after white men (perceived cultural superiority/emasculation of Asian men in media)
Why? You all come to our countries and never ask us our opinion
We love western women❤❤
The Thai man in this video literally explains it exactly how it is perfectly.
@@AKASHROY-i9fIndian men hate western culture but drool over western women. They are the most privileged and entitled class of male.
I think and this might be unpopular opinion but as a woman i say if you want to find love and lady wants to be with you then what does it matter if she is from UK or from Asian country. Be happy life is short enough to start thinking what others might think of this.
True
I don't think that's unpopular at all. Most men would agree with you. The problem is that the women in the UK are awful and it would be miserable to marry them. I live in the UK but for over a decade have only had serious relationships with women from other countries. When I try to date women from here it's just a miserable experience. Instead the foreign women i date are far more enjoyable experiences. And many of these women are not living in poverty, they have been from really wealthy families, far richer than me, I am broke. They also already have UK residency, so not interested in my passport. They are not always in it to gain something. They are genuinely just nicer to be around and more willing to get to know you than UK women.
This reminds of UA-cam vlogs i watched few months ago, its a white dude in his 40's who calls himself a "passport bro" living in the Philippines , and in the video he tour his friend around and the dude keeps telling his friend like " look the girls are giving us a flirty look" and they literally spend most of the time outside the highschool campus where all the girls you can see in the video were junior highschooler wtf.. can't find his channel from my UA-cam history dude probably blocked me coz i commented referencing them to PDF files 😂

Financial imbalance = lack of empowerment
Why is 'empowerment' a good thing?
American women are empowerd to be what? Obese, intolerable and moronic? They're uncompetitive in the rest of the world and basically they're now finding excuses that the men are nexting them instead of looking in the mirror and asking? 'Am a seflish, disgusting liability to men?' 'Can I actually compete with girls from Latam, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Asia - literally anywhere else on earth?'
lots of these girls have chinese sugar daddies , share photos online , make loads of money. they’re still interested in foreigners.
Indeed
Bullshit there are a lot of working money making single women in Bangkok
This is BS Philippines has had a woman president and there are many professional women here.
Western people always want to equate freedom and financial success to virtue. A real virtue conversion hasn’t been had in the west in a very long time. Modesty, honesty, commitment, femininity are are things that are valuable and important, not just money

What a great observation❤
@@mercynyamisa1958 Thanks.
True
This phenomenon (it's not a movement, just a result of men trying their luck elsewhere) has little to do with traditional gender roles for me. Western dating is mostly broken, and this leads men to go elsewhere. Some of those men hold traditional values, some of them don't. Some women in the west even hold more traditional values...
Anyways, the phenomenon isn't only about relationships either. The reason why men, and sometimes women too by the way, leave the west is also because of cheaper cost of living, a more hospitable climate and a better social cohesion than in many western countries today.
Bingo!!!!
As a Mexican who moved to the U.S. at the young age of 12, I still struggle to adapt to the solitary lifestyle of this country. People here, in general, tend to be extremely superficial and shallow, with hobbies often centered around partying, drinking-things that don’t really add much value. So, I don’t blame anyone for wanting to look for love elsewhere, as long as it’s under the right circumstances and always with respect for the other person.
For me there is nothing wrong with marrying foreigners. I think both sides has pros and cons of marrying them. Marry a woman or man that your heart wants. And if you want traditional or modern perspective when it comes to commitment, go for it. As long as there is no exploitation on both sides and there’s always an understanding.
I'm ok with gender roles but let's be honest here. Men in America can't pay the bills by themselves. Not like back in the day. So since the man cant provide that gender role. The woman has to help out with that. If the woman works than the man must help out with the house chores. Most of these women from southeast Asia don't have to work to provide for the bills. And as an American you can live like a king in most of these countries. I'm all for people seeking their happiness but let's be realistic. Trust me, I myself wish I was a stay at home mom. Just like other women I know. But we can't, we live in america unfortunately.
You can if you only buy lifelike silicon babies and pets, don't eat out, shop secondhand, live in a studio, and don't go on vacations. Sounds silly, but it's true. You'd probably still have to work because a lot of places have raised housing costs so high that even living in a studio might cost half of one's monthly paycheck.
Chinese Canadian here, I think if you are looking for love or relationship in Asia then you should consider learning their language, culture, and their lifestyle. Don't label yourself as a Passport Bro as a means to get away from your own country so you have an easier time here in Asia, you probably won't make it past as a sex tourist or sugar daddy.
Simply visiting for 30-60 days and hoping to meet someone serious is unrealistic and also very risky for the man. Consider living here for a while, work here, understand how life is here before you settle down.
Learning even a few words or phrases goes a long way, especially when most of the girls in Asia barely speaks English. Good luck!
There are lots of women here in the US that want to be "trad" wives. But at the same point-men need to be ready to take on the head of the household role.
Many men are willing to do that. I know quite a few men like this.
Family law in Canada and the US unfortunately aren’t a good deal for men so many are walking away from getting married. It’s just too risky.
and that's the problem. They can't afford to do that in the US and instead of admitting they can't afford the life they want, they blame the women and call their expectation unreasonable and call them feminists because they won't give up their job to live in single-income poverty.
No s---. The majority of men know this. This isn't new to us.
@@calliecraft5780 no shyt. That's why men are leaving
men cant afford tradwives in the US so they go to poor countries where their money has more value. passport bros are men who cannot compete in their birth country and need to compete with men who have less than them
If you want your wife to be a stay at home mom, wife and in a traditional role....then you have to be able to provide for that! You have to be able to pay for the kids, house, bills, car, vacations etc. Back in the 50's or 60's this was easy...Right now most people need two incomes to survive, let alone thrive. So if she needs to work, for your family to thrive then don't expect her to be a "traditional" wife.
that's why they move to a poorer country, because they can afford it there.
