Ladyboys are well known inThailand. These trans-Asian women are real traps for un accustomed men.Sometimes even more beautiful than an ” organic” woman , they turn  of tourists and locals alike.

Thailand’s transgender community has an international reputation thanks to its ladyboys. Also known as “shemale”, “third gender”, katoey (katoi) or transsexuals, these men transformed into women are the object of many sexual fantasies, like the geisha or the ninja woman in Japan. They’re so deeply rooted in the country’s culture that you can come across them on any street corner without it shocking anyone. It’s a far cry from the stigmatization found in other countries around the world. Here, it’s accepted, it’s normal, there’s no problem. They’re lucky.

Why are they so lucky? Because legend has it that when you cheated on your wife in a previous life, you were reincarnated as a ladyboy, in order to understand your former half’s emotions. So it’s a kind of curse, generating more compassion than judgment. Because whoever it is, it could be you!

The kingdom of Siam, cradle of ladyboys

Thailand is, of course, known as the “Land of Smile”, but it’s also known as the land of ladyboys! Well ahead of other countries (Philippines, Malaysia), Thailand has the largest ladyboy population in the world. And that’s why “ladyboy” is the English translation of “kathoey” (Thai for transsexual woman or effeminate gay man).

It has to be said that Thai ladyboys have naturally feminine features. Like most Asians, they usually have small bodies, fine features and smooth skin. This helps ladyboys to continue in their transition and “pass” into society.

Thailand, the country that specializes in vaginoplasty

Although the third sex isn’t destined to end up in the sex industry, the fact remains that many of them end up on roadsides or beaches, offering their charms to the tourists who flock here all year round. Representing around 2% of the population of the Kingdom of Siam, they try to find their place in society.

And to be in tune with themselves, the katoey have plenty of opportunities (if they have the money, of course) to make a complete transition. Thailand is the ideal place for cosmetic surgery, but also for transitional surgery, particularly vaginoplasty. If our shemale is on a budget, he can go for it: over-the-counter hormones, breast prostheses, facial cosmetic surgery, botox injections, penis removal and an artificial vagina.

Yes, I can see you putting your hand on your dick, and not for a handjob! Yes, I’m teasing slightly.

Of course, this process takes time. You need to have lived as a woman for at least a year, receive hormone treatment, and get approval from two psychiatrists. Finally, parental consent is required for people aged between 18 and 20.

Your ladyboy will be the one to take your virginity

So, even if katoye are accepted and tolerated in Thailand, the influence of the West weighs heavily against the benevolence of the Thai people. The country’s origins lie in Buddhism. And in this philosophy (no, it’s not a religion), transsexuality is not condemned and there are even four different genders: male, female, dual nature and non-usual sexual nature. But since opening up to the West, transsexuals have often been categorized as sexual deviants in neighboring countries. But the kingdom of Siam still resists this bad influence.

However, their role in society is fairly defined. Indeed, if premarital sex is frowned upon, and in rural areas, it’s sometimes difficult to find a prostitute to practice with. In such cases, it’s advisable to frequent a ladyboy until marriage. This way, the man gains experience, and no woman sees her honor trampled.

The katoey have their own beauty contest

Ladyboys are present in the mass media, they also have dedicated toilets in public places, so it’s only natural that transgender people should have their own beauty pageant too.

To attend, come to Pattaya every year. Launched in 1998, the contest is televised every May to over 15 million viewers – almost a quarter of Thailand’s population.

Don’t think that this is just altruism – no, no. We like viewers to get a hard-on in front of their screens. And what better way to do that than with a walking fantasy like transsexuals? That’s another reason why ladyboys are such a hit with tourists. There’s also a detail to note. While most of them find employment in the tourist industry or in other jobs such as saleswoman or hairdresser, the professions considered more masculine are not accessible to them. Finally, it’s impossible for them to rise to positions of responsibility on the social ladder, such as psychiatrist, lawyer or doctor. In some cases, the only solution is to become a tourist sex object.

Where to find ladyboys?

If you’re going to spend a few vacations in the land of smiles, lucky you, it’s easy to do a bit of sex tourism. How can you not be tempted by those almond-shaped eyes, that long black hair, those firm little breasts and that ass that fits in your hand…?! I don’t blame you. In Thailand, some regions are more conducive to this type of encounter than others. There’s Bangkok, the capital, and then you’ll have to head down to the beaches, like Pattaya or Phuket, renowned for its prostitutes.

The bars

Katoey are often creatures of the night, so you’re likely to find one in a bar at night. In Bangkok, the Obsession Bar is famous for its ladyboys. You’ll be able to admire them on the pole-dancing bars, with their loaded cocktails and charming hosts.

Massage parlors

As the country is already renowned for its massages, sometimes with finishing touches, it’s even nicer when you try out all the specialties, like massages with a ladyboy. So head to Pattaya’s Sabai Dee Body Massage, which offers a variety of massages from traditional Thai to soapy. What’s more, they have ladyboy therapists who can help you get that well-deserved rest.

The shows

When you think of a night owl, you think of a show. And the Thais have taken their inspiration from Paris. Not least at the Moulin Rose Cabaret in Phuket. Here, every night, the shows are free and the katoey are magnificent. While the latter is very well known, you can of course find them in many different places.
