At FDS, we condemn passport bros. I would like to learn how to spot passport bros so I can avoid them.
Is Jordan (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCg6pUlin57zeWC6Y7xmBdhA) a passport bro?
I find his content engaging and informative, and he seems nice and normal.
However, the fact that he's with a local Mexican woman gives me the ick. It doesn't seem like he's taking advantage of her, but my intuition tells me something isn't right. I could be mistaken, though.
What are your thoughts?
Look for signs of condescension. In Jordan's case, he's a white man in a relationship with a woman of colour.
There's a power difference there which he might exploit. I'm already seeing comments complaining of him making fun of her accent. Is she remotely connected to the travel vlogging world or did he rope her in asap to make content? His last ex-relationship was just a year ago. Anyway, these types of vloggers make videos where they talk about their cultural differences. You can easily find out from these videos what their dynamic is like.
