大象传媒

Dating in Medell铆n, Colombia is being promoted to foreign men on YouTube, TikTok and other social media platforms. Lots of the videos 鈥� in English and Spanish - contain misogynistic language and suggest that the local women are both accessible and easy.
These videos are part of a wider trend of 鈥減assport bros鈥� many of whom are American men, seeking life abroad in places marketed by content creators as being good for meeting women.
In theory, adult men going to meet adult women isn't a problem, but Medellin has a huge problem with sexual exploitation. It鈥檚 often nicknamed by the press as 鈥榯he world鈥檚 biggest brothel鈥�. Since the pandemic the city has introduced curfews for underage girls in some neighbourhoods while NGOs there are working against the issue. 大象传媒 Trending investigates the impact of passport bros in Colombia鈥檚 second biggest city.
