- So most female, we have called spare tire.
What it means, spare tire means ...
He knows I have a boy.
He's waiting to be a spare tire.
And the spare tire will really nice, will bring you coffee,
if the guy knows you have boyfriend.
But he just hoping one of those days, you guys.
Then he will become the real tire.

- It's very similar to dating in America.
You just go hang out, basically, go eat and talk.
I feel like in Sweden it's more ... they don't go
to movies or stuff, they like to go talk.
- We take a couple of beers and talk about our lives.
- Most common theme is to go to a bar or a pub
for the first date and get to know each other
and have drinks, and then you never know
where that's gonna lead into.

- Sex on the first date, it's crazy to me.
Like, it's ...
- If a guy likes a girl, he's really gonna be
super over the top about it a lot of times.
It would be totally appropriate to bring your Tinder date
that you were seeing for the first time on a first date
50 or 100 roses.
- In Japan, you like someone, you take the person out,
and then you guys go out ...
and then on the third or fourth date,
one of the person kinda have to go,
"I want you to be my girlfriend, boyfriend.
"I want us together."
- New generation almost like Americans.
We want a career, you know, not really into marriage yet.
- Yeah, it's ever-changing, I would say.
Currently, it's more modern.
- You can walk around and you can really meet people
on the tube and you can chit-chat.
- I feel like in Brazil, we don't normally talk about
- Most people don't talk about the marriage right away,
but if they did they wouldn't be offended or feel weird.
- That's a red flag.
From the get go, people don't talk marriage.
- They do mention about marriage, which is very important
because that's the way the community accepts you.
- We don't set so high expectations.
- They do like to compliment the girl, the man saying,
Because probably they think they're winning some points
and they have more chances of getting what they want.
- There's this new phenomena that's been going around,
and other than calling that person a ...
or ... they're called ...
So they sponsor your way of life.
- They definitely lose their inhibitions once they've had
a couple of drinks or so.
- Guys don't like ...
- They are like, no, I'm the man,
so I'm not gonna wash my clothes,
I'm not gonna clean the house,
you're the woman, you should do that.
We are like a patriarchal-focused culture.
- The parents want their kids to live with them
until they get married; even after they get married,
they wanna stay with their sons.
Of course, the daughters, they don't expect the daughters
to live with them, because they ...
- Right, so say you're dating someone.
You do want your parents to meet your future wife,
and they do give an opinion
whether this is good for you or not.
A lot of factors ride into it.
Things such as ...
... because you've got the same cultural practices,
you've got the same language.
- In Shanghai, a famous park called ...
There's one corner, is called ...
So the parents took their picture of their kids,
and they wrote out almost their resume,
and what's the requirement for dating, put on that corner.
So that corner everybody knows.
So basically the ...
