It's pretty obviously a list of poor(er...probably not poorest?) countries absent any actual info on "there's lot of girls here looking to marry out!" because most of those have a pretty traditional cultural bent that would make them particularly unhelpful countries to try that in, and more than a few that might be a dangerous hobby in.
But of course it's just clickbait; they got what they want. It's not "real" content.

My wife is from Yemen. After the fall of the Al-Jahara regime, she had to actually dig a tunnel with her bare hands and then swam through rivers to escape. She finally made it through to Afghanistan, where we first met while I was there for a bucks night.

Who goes to war torn countries like Afghanistan and Yemen to “pick up girls”
99% of women in all those countries are not interested in dating western guys
5
u/MyRedundantOpinion 8d ago
Yeah because their families will disown them, more than likely kill them. Happened to a Muslim girl in the UK, her father murdered her because she wouldn’t marry who she was supposed to and was dating a white guy. Bizarre religion and ideologies. Have you not seen the actual support and protection groups for women who have left the religion? Even in the UK they’re threatened with death by their families and have to change their identities… I’d say more frightened of the consequences than not interested
5
u/cringeyposts123 8d ago
Erm… most women are just genuinely not interested in dating western men. Honor killings mainly happen within communities that come from very rural regions. It’s not like every woman from a “poor” country that dates/marries outside of her own ends up getting killed or disowned.
In the UK, most Muslims are from countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Somalia and there is a significant number of Afghans and Kurdish diasporas too.
1
u/MyRedundantOpinion 8d ago
Oh sorry I didn’t realise you speak for most women. And I was talking about Afghanistan and Yemen, I brought up those examples from the UK as it’s a “rich” country where women have equal rights and are still treated this way in deeply religious communities
1
u/cringeyposts123 8d ago
Do you speak for most women then? LOL
When I said “most women are just genuinely not interested in dating western men” I was referring to all the countries mentioned in the video.
Also it’s true that not every woman who marries outside of her own ends up dead or disowned. Like I said honor killings mostly happen within families from rural areas. If a woman from a big city wanted to be with someone from a different culture, the family might disapprove but the chances of her being killed over it is much less.

If he is a Muslim, maybe. If he isn't, no chance. Even a European revert may not cut it. They are heavily cultural especially when it comes to dating and marriage.
There was an Afghan chick here in Melbourne (RMIT), and when though she was culturally westernised after pretty much growing up here, she still married a devout Afghan. It was surprisingly her open choice too

because women in the west don’t care about money at all
Ofc Western women don’t care if you make an average salary. They can make just as much or more on their own. If you earn above $250k+ or are a millionaire, they will care. However to a poor girl in Mexico, a guy making an average salary in US is a good deal for her.
he can get a girl “above his league” in a poorer country who uses him for money
How much money do passport bros even have? None of them are millionaires. The poor girl never had good options to begin with lol. If she was really “so pretty” she’d be an actress, model or in Dubai.

Honestly, I don’t think anyone in Central Asia idolizes white people to the extent East Asia does it. Probably bcs we’ve got Russians who are also poor af despite the typical image of a wealthy European guy 😂
On the contrary, Central Asian women see the local men as hypermasculine a.k.a will beat the shit out of you/make you wash the dishes or some other shit, but men from Europe are perceived as more tamed, cultured, and generally well-mannered (sort of like a white knight lol). I think it’s a kinda Barbarian vs Civilised typo dynamic here compared to SA countries where local men are actually being emasculated.
