Video Description

There is a gender war brewing. Men and women are diverging ideologically, especially in the West. Among the many consequences is a mismatch in dating and marriage expectations. As a result, men, especially from America, are coming to Southeast Asia to look for "traditional wives". This movement, known as "Passport Bros", is largely driven by social media, and aligned with the growing push back against feminism. But how are passport bros received in the Philippines and Thailand, two of the top destination for these roaming Romeos? Are passport bros just an update of the sex tourists prevalent in Southeast Asia? Or are they simply lonely men looking for their shot at love? 00:00 Introduction 01:43 What is a passport bro? 03:15 A mismatch in dating expectations in the West 04:55 A growing gender divide between young men and women 10:44 Popular countries for passport bros 12:50 What Passport bros in Philippines say 17:20 Asian women fight back against their depiction 24:18 Dark side of Passport bro movement 28:44 Passport bro = sex tourist? 30:39 Against stereotypes 34:28 A global pushback against feminism 39:21 How the gender divide has affected the US presidential election 40:48 Growing inequality in Southeast Asia 43:05 The impact of dating apps on romantic pursuits ========= ABOUT THE SHOW: Insight investigates and analyses topical issues that impact Asia and the rest of the world. ================== #CNAInsider #CNAInsight #Philippines #Thailand #PassportBros #SoutheastAsia For more, SUBSCRIBE to CNA INSIDER! https://cna.asia/insideryoutubesub Follow CNA INSIDER on: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cnainsider/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cnainsider/ Website: https://cna.asia/cnainsider
