Passport Bros is a slang term for American men, originally Black American men, who travel abroad in search of foreign women they consider more traditional than U.S. women3. Commonly named destinations include Brazil, Thailand, and Colombia, and the framing draws from the broader manosphere alongside figures like Kevin Samuels, Dr. Umar Johnson, and Andrew Tate4.

Critics tie the framing back to Western sex tourism first covered in Brazil during the 2000s1. Supporters on Urban Dictionary describe themselves as men seeking family-oriented partners in places where hookup culture is less rampant6. Fox News quoted dating coach Eddie Hernandez saying many Passport Bros blame feminism and impossible U.S. dating standards for their move overseas2.

Passport Bros content typically takes one of a few forms: a TikTok clip of a man holding up his U.S. passport (the format popularized by @anthonymcdonaldsr's November 2022 duet7), a talking-head YouTube travel vlog shot in Brazil, Thailand, or Colombia explaining why the creator left the U.S., or a comparison video ranking women from different countries. The label is also used critically by opponents who mock the framing.
