Danish man marries his Thai ladyboy sweetheart - but has never asked if she's a he!

 

 

Thai Rath reported on a marriage ceremony in Thailand's south on Saturday in which the groom was a man from Denmark and the "bride" was a man from Trang. 

 

The couple married legally in Denmark two months ago and confirmed their vows in a ceremony for relatives followed by a slap up party at a local hotel. 

 

John Standskov, 54, a civil servant, was married twice before to women but these unions never worked out. 

 

Yingyong "Anne" Nokkaew, 49, who has lived in Denmark for thirty years himself, divorced five years ago. 

 

The couple met and mutual respect and love soon developed in a place Thai Rath called "the land of cow's milk". 

 

Anne said that John had never asked if he was a man or a woman. 

 

John said that Anne is a lovely woman. 

 

The couple have known each other for four years and said that this marriage is for keeps as it is true love.

I fairness this is not a question that people ask in normal life. If you've got any suspicions that things are not as they seem then there are more subtle ways of finding out.

I get from OP that John does not mind what gender his love is. Just surprised it took him 54 years and 3 marriages to realize he was gay.

A bit hard-hitting that ezzra.

 

How/why did the story even break?

 

Not news for me; just a talking point over a beer.

What do you think a gay man would want with a ladyboy?

[holy cow cm]

So he likes to take it instead of giving it. He tried the other way with 2 wives and flopped. A bit odd though.

555, you can tell these guys that a thousand times, but they never seem to get it. Or why would a ladyboy find a gay man attractive? They wouldn't, they would think it absurd. A lot of strait men like ladyboys because they find them more feminine that girls, and better and more responsive in bed than girls. Absolutely nothing to do with being gay. How can people live in Thailand for so many years and just not understand that gender and sexuality can be far more flexible than a lifetime of pub bigotry has led you to believe?

Well he is a Civil Servant.!.

After 4 years he should have found out if he likes whatever he gets.

If you preference is your partner having a penis , rather than a vagina , it probably means that you are gay

 

Assuming your ladyboy (kathoey) wife is pre-op and retains one.

 

I have just been told that, of course, "kathoey sometime make same p**** as lady"

 

Why would she comment that he had never asked her?

 

Why would he if the equipment was there?

 

Or do you think that they kept it platonic until the wedding night?

 

So is a man who marries a kathoey post-op, without "what all gays want",......gay?

Really? Where does your insight come from?

 

I know two types of guys:

a) straight guys who would never knowingly do something with a lady-boy

b) straight guys who from time to time want a BJ or the backside and lady-boys seems to be good in these services.

 

And then there are guys who go to lady-boys bars. I had a friend who had such a bar in Soi 33 a few years ago.

I asked him once if they all had the operation. I thought that would help with business.

But he corrected me that all his customers wanted the lady-boys full equipped so that the lady-boys could <deleted> the guys.

 

I wouldn't say a guy who looks for a lady-boy to get <deleted> in the back would call such a lady-boy "more feminine than girls".

I wonder how much he paid out for sin sod?

 

I tried out a ladyboy once.

I don't recommend it.

It hurt like buggery.

Because "a lifetime of pub bigotry" is not conducive to intelligent, enlightened re-assessment of ones views and opinions.

 

It's sort of....axiomatic.

 

(From one who has worked on the other side of the bar).

 

And spent more than enough time listening to "them".

True.  But he's marrying a ladyboy, so it's irrelevant.

[Vacuum]

A guy get married and people get all worked up about it...

[MasterHongThong]

I think the headlines is a bit deceiving. I think he knew immediately that she was a ladyboy, so didn't bother asking and she knew that he knew. The first time they slept together he would see whether she still had her penis or not.

See the Transphobics are out in force again today!!!

[BEngBKK]

I have seen a sex change operation... The result can be very convincing

Having “ boy” makes it all very relevant

My ladyboys dates usually assuring  me that i’m not a gay because they are like girls. ????

That's the theory.

But it seems there are guys who just don't know. Maybe they have 0 experience what a women should look like or they don't look or whatever.

I heard the story of this guy who was with his holiday bar girl for two weeks on an island and he was so happy that he found the perfect girl. He showed a picture to my friend who knew "her", except it wasn't a her...
