THE PASSPORT BROS The "Passport Bros" are men who have chosen to seek out foreign women, typically from other countries, for relationships. They believe that western women have been influenced by cultural and societal pressures to behave in a certain way and that by seeking out foreign women, they can find a more authentic, fulfilling, and harmonious relationship. This is seen as a way to restore the natural balance between masculine and feminine energy and to avoid the "wickedness" of western women.

MAJOR SEARCH COUNTRIES FOR BRIDES: BRAZIL, COLOMBIA, THAILAND, COSTA RICA, THE PHILIPPINES Passport Bros chronicle their search for love and/or sex on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram. They’re reviled and ridiculed on most social media platforms. OTHERS VIEW THEM AS SIMPLY SEEKING HAPPINESS.
