Who Are Portuguese Men and Why Are They Looking for Love Abroad?
Who Are Portuguese Grooms?
Ever dreamt about a partner who lives life to the fullest, with a love for good food, deep conversations, and an appreciation for the little things? That’s Portuguese grooms in a nutshell. And despite Portugal’s beauty and the rich life it offers, many Portuguese men are joining dating sites and expanding their search for love.
Portuguese men typically decide to get married around 33 years old, a bit later than women. They want to make sure the match is perfect. Why? Raised in a country high on the Human Development Index (actually 40th in the world), these guys have grown up in an environment that truly values the quality of life and personal development.
They live in a country with world-famous cuisine ranging from seafood to sinfully delicious pastries and a wine culture that’s the world’s envy. But the male-to-female ratio in Portugal leans slightly toward women, with about 940 men for every 1.000 women. And this imbalance, subtle as it may seem, is one of the practical reasons Portuguese men look beyond their homeland for love. Okay, what else?Men make up about 48.6% of the population and often live within a relatively small social circle. Just like Italian men, they’re adventurers at heart, not just in the physical sense but emotionally and intellectually as well.
