Brazilian men are posing as foreigners to hook up with Brazilian women. Is this okay? Doesn’t everyone lie in the dating process? Have you? Tell us in the comments below. Cenk Uygur (www.twitter.com/cenkuygur), Ana Kasparian (www.twitter.com/AnaKasparian), Jimmy Dore (TYTComedy, The Jimmy Dore Show), and Lissette Padilla (www.twitter.com/lizzette) discuss and share personal stories.
“Employing a trick often used during Carnival, Brazilian men are feigning foreignness to boost their chances of hooking up with Brazilian women during the World Cup.
“People are much more likely to show an immediate, automatic interest in you, if you’re speaking in English, when you go out in Brazil,” São Paulo businessman Ed Carlos Leal, 30, tells Mashable.”
Leal is able to impersonate one of the estimated 600,000 tourists in the country for the World Cup because he speaks fluent English, having spent three years in the UK. But even those with the faintest grasp of English have been known to give it a go as a fake American or Brit.
And some actually succeed — at least during the initial encounter.*

The Largest Online News Show in the World. Hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian. LIVE STREAMING weekdays 6-8pm ET.
Young Turk (n), 1. Young progressive or insurgent member of an institution, movement, or political party. 2. Young person who rebels against authority or societal expectations. (American Heritage Dictionary)
The Young Turks (Winner – Best Political Podcast & Best Political News Site of 2009) were the first original talk show on Sirius satellite radio and the first live, daily webcast on the internet. But that is not the revolution.
We are a rare show that combines all of the news that people care about in one place. We are not afraid to talk about politics and entertainment and sports and pop culture. But that is not the revolution either.
The real revolution is in daring to be honest with people. We don’t patronize our viewers or lie to them. We have real conversations and deliver the news honestly.
