Having lived in Brazil for 1.5 years I dont think that documentary was all that good. Why interview someone who has only been in Brazil for 2 days?? They shouldve interviewed more Brazilian women here & in the United States who have dated men, specifically black men, BUT their society is so mixed they dont fully understand the racial divide here in America. Majority of Brazilians think its all been good in the U.S.A because of Dr. King.
Yalls most opportune time to come to Brazil is an exchange program through your university. It's easier than u think to accomplish, no matter what major u are. I did 3 semesters total (2 undergrad, 1 masters). I paid LESS studying there than studying here in the U.S.
Theres dozen of reasons why Brazilian women look better than American women but 1 thing you immediately realize when you return to America is; food is SO abundant. So easy to access here. Theres food even in Menards!
For example, that Tahiri chick Joe Budden had that everyone was sweating in Brazil theres probably 50 more of her same body top better face & far more pleasant acting within a 10 mile radius. By far the best looking-women on the planet still have flash backs & Ive been gone since December. Brazil has rendered white-women (non-mixed) unattractive to me.
You'll be surprised how slutty a large portion of the women ARENT in brazil. I know dozens of more virgins in brazil than I do the states. HIV is actually worse in the U.S than Brazil it's an unfortunate stigma that's been tied to it.
If you go I advise to be smart... don't be acting like a fool or 1 of them dangerous adventure-type white dudes that end up hog-tied in a trashcan & dont understand why... use the same judgment u would in the U.S.
Studying Abroad
- The dollar is always at least worth 1.5 of their money (reias). It really never goes under that. Right now its 1.7. It got to as high as 2.6 during my undergrad. Basically, every time you buy something there in reality its half that price.
- You dont have to pay for credits. Its all free. You only pay for student exchange, if thats the type of study abroad program you were to choose. Take 21 credits and pay 0 and have them transferred in.
- Student exchange means youre going to pay the tuition of a student going to your university. But if you get a large scholarship that will even out the tuition cost. Many programs provide a large scholarship for 1 semester that can go up to $3,000.
- However, you can simply enroll in a university in Brazil & they will be happy to accept you. Just simply do the process on their website. Then just link up with your college that youre gonna do a semester in brazil.
- I did this in my Masters & paid neither college ANYTHING. Brazilians dont pay for the university themselves, the government does. They just have to pass a test called the vestibular, which is similar to the SAT but a bit more difficult. They actually get upset when you tell them you didnt even have to take a test.
- They do not use textbooks, only handouts and copies (from the books) and/or supply the materials. Take 15 credits and pay less than $50 for books.
- Meals are much cheaper. On campus lunch is no more than a buck fifty & it fills you up. Meat/beans/rice/fruit/vegetable/juice. The biggest meal they eat is lunch, where many restaurants have you pay by the kilo. For a huge plate you may only end up paying 7$
- Public trans buses is only $1.50. Buses to travel to other cities are cheap. To get to Rio you could only end up paying like $30.
- Housing is cheap. If you were to live in a dorm on campus its less than 60. I had an apartment with a maid that came twice a week for like $250. U can find some much cheaper than this.
- If you have a good GPA it will stay that way because your credits will come in as transfer credits.
- The Visa/passport will cost you about $250, but you wont have to get another passport for 10 years.
- They have all the majors down there that the states have. You CAN go. If you can find a few classes that fit in your curriculum you CAN go. They'll let you sign-up for them in Brazil, and many of times
- Professors know youre a foreigner they'll have mercy may be a bit lenient on you for the fact that youre taking the courses in another language. As long as you don't fail your credits transfer in, and they really don't fail anyone.
- They have all the technology we have, u aint gonna end up in no jungles.
- The ONLY thing that can get you is the plane ticket. But if u know how to get good deals on those u can avoid the high costs, which can go up to $1700 (round trip). Unfortunately to obtain a visa, u need to get a round-trip ticket. I should also note though that there is a ton of parties & sometimes the ticket prices are a bit unnecessary, the high range from $40-50.
Therefore, I encourage folks to study abroad. There is 0 negatives and u save your money. It's worth stopping by your study abroad office to see what kind of opportunities they have for Brazil. & if they don't have any for Brazil, just search Brazilian college online, and when you find 1 you like and fits your program in that states, apply. This may be actually better so you won't have to pay for tuition exchange. If I were to do it all over again I would've done half of my entire college career there. You could do your entire college education there, but I know some are worried that foreign degrees don't look as good. All what I've said would be confirmed by 3 of my good friends that went with me and the other study abroad students we met. These are only the $ benefits, there's dozens of others.
People are shook by learning a new language so they choose easy places like Europe & Australia like everyone else does. With Brazil you learn a new language (Portuguese instead of spanish like everyone else), spend less $, drop 20lbs immediately because the food is heather, theyre gonna become even more powerful in the future, great atmosphere, lots if not more tourist spots than America, meet hundreds of brazilians and other study abroad students across the world and of course the women, which is a whole 'nother topic.

Black men in america definitly have a higher expectation when it comes to bein cool,having swag and bein charismatic....the expectation is that you are born with that...other races don't. Have that same expectation of their men...but u gotta be honest same reason white women and white people in general,as well as people accross the world are "intrigued" by the black man is the same reason nikkas in america who dont possess those traits the world thinks we are born with,those nikkas will have it a little bit harder with our own black women....u can blame it on the history of black swag,that black excellence
It looks like the only time those nikkas feel bitter is on the day they have to return home on some "ahh man do I have to "
Underrated post, I swear every time I come back, I ask myself, why is everyone disproportionately overweight....man, first time i traveled outside the states, i came back to US looking at women like these hoes aint worth a shyt
Bro, this is why I encourage people to learn how to save money. It doesn't matter if you're on a fixed lower income( minimum wage), learn how to save. I've worked bottom of the barrel jobs, and still managed to save.Dudes who've dealt with foreign women how are they with Finances? An few of my Asian friends who married women from overseas most of their wives tended to be really good with money. They weren't as materialistic as American women and didn't seem to spend all their money on bullshyt.
American chicks that claim their doing so well are usually in debt up to their eyeballs. Most have huge credit card and student loan debt to go along with their car and mortgage payments. Yet their still in the mall shopping damn near every weekend. I've lost count on how many American women I've met who make decent money yet their debt to income ratio is crazy. They love to talk about what they own but most are living paycheck to paycheck.
Thanks for the impression. I'm just trying to get this thread back on track into talking about travelling instead of the same black men vs black women, who got game, who got this who got that these threads keep on devolving into.
What was your favorite place in South America?
someone speak on dominican republic..id love to go there
the resort looks nice, but im trying to mingle with the locals
how safe is it?
They crabs. Women in the states HATE competition cause they force to step their game up, and a lot of them cannot do that. The best they can do is to shame you into pursuit of getting better quality women overseas
American chicks are shytted on by the world and are jokes. Their time is soon coming to an end.

nope , strapping up is mandatory, i mean honestly though after while it does get boring , takes the fun out of running game them getting a chick , but man comin out a club 4am , pulling up to a place
if i told yall about drive through red light districts
* pulls up to mid level semi gated housing complex *
* picks up shakira look alike *
* drives INTO any covered driveway , garage door auto shuts behind me*
* steps out of car , walks up to a door puts $5 in, room door unlocks *
* handles business, females leave out front door , i leave out door i came in *
* gets back in car, rings buzzer garage door opens , i drive off *
I think most women in those foreign countries hate being treated/looked at as 'sex workers'
Guys who treat em like regular women probably have more fun than those throwing money around every 2 secs tryina buy their affection
/threadThing is there is A LOT of sex workers and i mean its out in the open Amsterdam style pretty much , every club / casino /lounge is full of them and even with that you can pull you a "dime" type chick for cheap
call it simpin, its just reality
To me, watching this, it just says to me that the cities are what's killing us as Black people.
If you look at when the break down of the Black family started, it was after the Great Migration and we came up North to New York, Chicago, Detroit, etc. . , which were already violent ghettos from when the Jews and Italians and Irish were living in them.
In America, the cities are where everything is dumped. All the pollution, all the drugs, prostitutes, crappiest jobs, etc. . ., so the people who get raised in these environments( and I'm one of them) end up jaded and stressed the fukk out.
A lot of us need to even before we get out of America, get out of the rat race of the cities.
I'd bet a lot of Black families would do better in (don't laugh) the country. I know a guy who's a cowboy with his own horses and shyt who owns his own land and doesn't really even fukk with the hassle outside of work. He leaves his job, goes out to the country and chills out with his wife and tends to his land.
That's really what built the Black family structure.
It's the city that causes materialism, overworked parents, kids in constant danger, and all that shyt. If Black folks in mass started abandoning that for the slower pace of the country again, you'd see Black relationships doing better, us eating better with stuff that we grew ourselves, and have less temptations to drive us Black men and women apart.
I know I sound slow as hell, but this culture is fukked.
am not going to say this is completely false and am speak for most of south america only but a lot am say over half of these girls do it out of there own freewill , pu$$y sells and they know it , so theyll work at one of these "clubs" they pay a renters fee to club and leave with whatever else they make, this isnt me making it ive had two different working girls tell me this
