But I still cannot bring myself around to calling him a she. english language has to come up with a third person pronoun for transgenders such as "shim" ,unless "she" has already completed "her" transformation.

pattayadude Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Generalizations such as "most ladyboys are thieves/criminals" can't be further from the truth. There is no data on ladyboy population therefore claims such as " most ladyboys are thieves/prostitutes/criminals" without the knowledge of their population and percentages is only speculation and a pure discriminating approach. Some of themdefinately are criminals but most of them can't be as only a very small percentage of any group of any nation get involved in crime.Most people are law abiding and peaceful. My take on the headline: As soon as I read it, I immediately thought "a very large group or ladyboys in Pattaya were rounded up" and I don't think I am the only one thought this way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Case closed! Shim won't work.... "A shim is a thin and often tapered or wedged piece of material, used to fill small gaps or spaces between objects. Shims are typically used in order to support, adjust for better fit..." Edited June 11, 2018 by lamyai3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if one lives there, but my observation of the place was that of a slum. Rats and filth and bad smell everywhere. Too bad the location is good, but I bet people get sick alot who live there. And yes, rents are cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically, almost every word has a multiple meaning. Shim actually makes a perfect sense. It is the gender between two genders just like the shim between two metal pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
