Meh this can be VERY hit or miss depending on where the nurse actually works.

ER/Trauma? Sure

GI Lab or outpatient? Hard to imagine that being “traumatic”
I think its more they are desensitized to peoples bodies, and potentially ickier kinkier stuff because of what they may deal with at work. Then for some not handling the ER type scene is another factor for crazy sure. When I worked in the hospital, it went beyond simple hoes, wierdo 3 somes with big age gaps. One got fired after leaving her patients to go check on one of my supervisors who was off fucking a different nurse. Etc.

mostly come off as normal good people
Also worth noting that a lot of "crazy" can be pretty context dependent. Tons of people have solid careers, reasonable enough professionally, etc. but are a mess relationship-wise.

Got a son(22) has a great job, no debt. Newer car, great shape. He's killing it. The sense of entitlement from 20 -26 women is off the charts. The ones that aren't are so mercenary. I'm starting to think this passport bro thing isn't a bad idea. Anyone have advice for him.
Imo, best thing you can do is get away from anything online to whatever extent is possible. Do things where you have the opportunity to meet lots of different people (of both genders) in real life. Go to church, join groups that do activities, hiking, outdoors things, etc. volunteer somewhere, pet rescue, tour guide, whatever. Just anything to facilitate meeting lots of people, making friends, etc. It may or may not get him a good wife, but if he's not already doing a few similar things, he'll be all the better for it.

Go enjoy life, pursue interests before you're tied down. There are a lot of dangerous hobbies I never got to pursue from being in relationships since my early 20s. Very few people get to have a stage in their young lives where they have both money and no responsibilities, take advantage of it. Also, if he can meet someone within that hobby, there's probably a much higher chance it goes anywhere than if he pursues the online dating/bar route.

Women 20-26 especially western women are terrible unless you find a unicorn, or someone who is somewhat of a minority or is raised religious. Atleast modern day, but I would think 10-15 years ago it wouldn't have been this bad. Unfortunately your son will likely just need to spend his 20s dating as women these days usually settle in their late 20s because they start to get desperate. Some of the really pretty ones don't settle until even later. If he wants to find someone decent in 6-10 years I would advise having finances in order, getting muscular, and learning about women's nature (hypergamy) so he doesn't get cucked via divorce or gets cheated on.

Instagram/tinder has convinced many of these young women that they have infinite options and that they can demand anything as a result. Knocking one of those entitled thots up (or worse, getting suckered into paying for some other dude's kid) is the best way to derail your life. I can see why some young guys are deciding to look elsewhere or decide it's just not worth the risk.

Worth a watch if you want to hate people some more

How exactly does it work?
Just trying to import someone directly sounds like it would be a great way to get hit with every scam known to man, including plenty that are long-term and life-ruining. I would think the most reliable way would be to pick a country and go and live there for a while so you can interact with real locals instead of someone that's greencard shopping. If you can get a job or business that's fully location independent, you can tourist visa hop wherever. Or you could get a job there for a while, although how easy that is will depend a lot on the chosen country and what you're able/willing to do for work. Teaching English is the easiest path, but you won't make much more than it takes to live on. Also, aside from wife-shopping, spending a year or two living in a foreign country could be a pretty valuable experience imo.

IMO what you want are the children of once-poor working immigrants already living here. My wife's parents fled post-Cultural Revolution China in the 80's and you have never seen such hardworking and family-focused people. They had a sub-high school education and boostrapped themselves up from manual labor and basic food insecurity to where my wife could be physicist-turned AI researcher. They are all just absolutely normal, zero drama, common sense, financially conservative, long-term minded, realistic expectations people, and so is their entire extended family and friend network.

There are a ton of videos out there like this, it's why I'm worried.

How exactly does it work? What should you look out for? Let's say he waa interested in college educated from south America.

How so?
When I’ve been in the Indian Ocean area I’ve literally had women walk up to me on a beach and ask if I want to buy their daughter. Marrying whitey is like hitting the jackpot, and you can easily find people that will let you pick them from the waifu menu if that’s what you want, because I know people who have both bought and sold wives like this.

South America will be harder. They got lots of poors, but they still have a degree of western level of entitlement in a lot of areas. I’ve never been openly propositioned in South America, but I’m sure it’s a thing, but you’ll need a lot more money to make it work.

This option works just as well when you’re older. 100% wouldn’t do it in the 20s. Save that shit for 35+.

Still gambling like any other person imo. Last girlfriend parents where FOBs who came to America when they where kids themselves. While they where hard working, most of the family was riddled with stereotypical problems(abusive, materialistic/vain, liars/cheaters, criminality etc.) like western born people.

I think it was TJT who said some rando family friend of his was getting hit up by rich dudes on Instagram to fly out to Vegas and get used for the weekend.

Thats the world we live in now. How do you compete with that as a remotely normal guy and as a woman not have your world view destroyed?

My last girlfriend was an OR nurse. She had very little patient interaction being head of some "team" they call it. She did actual OR stuff, not out patient stuff.

She was normal to me. She did talk about other nurses getting fat eating all the stuff and looking for a doctor to marry. My GF did not get a divorce. Her husband died in a car wreck on the way home from work.

It's way easier to get attention from women as an American in other places.

Europe, Dominican Republic, Argentina, all places where American guys get a TON of female attention.

Whenever I've been to Europe it's like night and day in terms of the amount of women approaching/talking to me or just plain being polite/interested, compared to the US.

For example, in 2016 I was probably a "ten matches a week" guy on Bumble and then I went to England/Ireland for a bit and it was more like 80 matches per week over there. Getting super-liked, spammed with thirsty messages, etc. Come back to the U.S., back to getting ten a week and practically zero effort from any of them.

So in short, "passport bro" is good work if you can swing it / have an actual reason to spend time in other places. Live in Argentina for a year and you'll probably come back with a wife.

I wouldn't wish most modern 20-something American women on my enemies at this point.

Need some advice..

I'm mid 30s, girl I'm interested in just turned 30. I'm a remote worker in engineering, she's a nurse.

Thing is, she's lived in LA her whole life, all her family is here, she just bought her own home, and takes pride in being "independent". Seems like a decent girl, she is christian, from Sri Lanka.

I chatted with her back in April and said I'd reach out when I got to LA. I'm in LA now, but I really don't like the prospect of living here.

Realistically, if I reached out to this girl and we hit it off - is it likely she would abandon her city to move somewhere else with me? Or should I just scrap the idea alltogether and move on? I realize it's not a black and white answer, but I need perspective.

My gut is telling me to move on.

Go for it. It's pretty common for women to move for a man. Hell, she might even make you like LA enough to stay. This is not an insurmountable problem. And even if it turns out to be, you get your wick dipped while you're staying in LA. No lose situation.
