Jumped on Tinder there again recently

    And let me tell you, there's a lot of women named Bruna on there. And they all have at least one photo of themselves standing under those umbrellas in South Anne Street - and no, it isn't the same Bruna over and over and over again. You'd swear they'd never seen an umbrella before and, being from Brazil, maybe they hadn't. There isn't much precipitation in them there parts of the globe I don't think.

    I saw quite a few ladies called Marta as well, minus the H. If I'm honest, there's actually about a million Brazilian women in Dublin lads, going by Tinder.

    I matched with one - who is neither a Bruna or a Marta incidentally - and she seems nice, but I know of a guy who's married to a Brazilian and he doesn't like it apparently. He's the only person she knows in the entire continent, so you can see how that would get a bit claustrophobic for him. Then again, he married the girl. I haven't messaged mine yet; not because I'm such a stud and working through a bigger backlog than the Mater hospital right now, but because I'm not a huge fan of big booties and this girl does have a set of buns on her, let me tell you. I know a lot of lads love them - even white boys - but they do nothing for me. I've no time for Cardi B or Nicki Minaj aesthetically or musically speaking, with the exception of Super Bass.

    And who knows, maybe she wouldn't even like me. She swiped right obviously but that doesn't mean a great deal. I could upload a photo of a chest of drawers and start swiping away and I'd get matches eventually.

    I don't have as many matches as I would've liked, but my profile is fairly bland - a bit like a chest of drawers actually. Few nice photos (in my opinion) but zero by way of bio. It adds personality and that's important. I swiped right on a woman I didn't fancy just because she had a Father Ted quote in the aul bio, and then I did fancy her a bit more. It's weird how it works.

    But yeah, a lot of Brazilians over here lads.

    Her arse will look smaller if she faces you while you both maintain social distancing.

    From Monday on of course.

    Tinder is useful as something to do on your phone while you take a shyte.

    In my experience Brazilian women in Ireland are only interested in you if you have money. I met one after a night out in Dublin as a student, she was all over me, started texting me the next few days, then found out I was a student and never text back. this happened a bit when I was a student but then when i started making a few quid they show a lot more interest.

    I could be wrong though.

    Tinder in its prime (c.2013/14/15) was the dog's bollocks.

    Are they all looking to get married to dopey Irish lads for residency?

    Brazilian women on Tinder tend to just be on it to improve their english.

    That explains why all those dick pics looked a little off. And red.

    Re the umbrellas and rain...it rains more in most parts of Brazil than even the most miserable god-forsaken parts of north-west Ireland. The blistering sun sucks it back up fairly quickly though.

    Nice arses all the same. I like.

    South American women age horrendously, she will be looking like Sitting Bull within ten years.

    Brazilians don’t need it, they can get EU residency/ citizenship through Portugal handy enough


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,176 ✭✭✭✭ILoveYourVibes


    This is really ...racist.

    Not true, if it were, there’d be 10s of millions of them coming to EU.

    Truth is unless their parents have an eu passport (usually Portugal, Italy or Germany), they're probably buggered. Just because grandpa was from Faro or Napoli doesn’t mean easy street for a Brazilian coming here. Most come here on dodgy student visas for a reason.

    This post is bordering on racist. Started by an immature manchild with superficial priorities. I hope you find the person you deserve.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭Austria!


    Super Bass a tune in fairness

    It isn't though is it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,281 ✭✭✭CrankyHaus


    OP's right though. Tinder nowadays is just Irish girls using it to boost their Instagram followings, and Brazilians.

    Maybe it's just me but as a black guy I get a lot of "artsy" types of women interested in me who dye their hair all colours of the rainbow and are quite chubby compared to the conventionally attractive white women.

    But then again, the most feminine women go for the most masculine men and I can't really say that about myself. I'm quite effeminate looking, scrappy hair, and only 5ft 5in.

    Gabriela Sabatini disagrees with you strongly.

    As a Canadian who had Irish lads enquiring about my passport, F the hypocrisy of this thread.

    Unless the one person on this thread saying they're looking for a passport was the same person talking to you on tinder then it's not really hypocrisy.

    You're like Maris in Frasier. Always have a different physical description so it becomes impossible to cast you

    You are technically correct but miss the point, which is people will try to marry locals in desirable countries and Irish people abroad aren't immune to this as I've witnessed first hand in Australia and Canada.

    "Technically correct" AKA Correct.

    Don't try to move the goalposts by telling me I missed your point, which you've now watered down from "F the hypocrisy in this thread" to "people who move to a country may marry locals there".

    I'm not moving the goalposts by clarifying my point.
