Popular Post webfact Posted April 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2021 Picture: Sanook Sanook and other Thai media reported on the selection process for new recruits into the Thai army - and once again the focus was not on the men but the ladyboys! Thai men aged 22-29 are up for selection according to a draw from April 1st to 20th with breaks for Chakri Day on the 6th and Songkran. Hundreds will be process nationwide each day in selection procedures. Sanook went to Wat Bote district of Phitsanulok in the north of Thailand where all the attention was on several ladyboys the most beautiful of whom was 23 year old Naritsala or "Nong Luuk Men" (baby porcupine) Picture: Sanook She is a model and beauty queen and was fresh from her latest success at a beauty pageant in Phrae. She was dressed as a university student and explained that she would be unable to join the army this year as she needs to study. She had been several times before to the draft to ask to be excused service. She explained that she has had sex change surgery. However she said that she saw no reason why she and others like her should not be allowed to serve in the army. After all there were female soldiers. She said that if she is free to serve in the future and if she is allowed to do so she will jump at the chance. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2021-04-03 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does it say she wants to join the Army as a woman? The very fact that she felt the need to point out that there are female soldiers after referencing herself and people like her suggests that she sees herself as different to the female soldier. "However she said that she saw no reason why she and others like her should not be allowed to serve in the army. After all there were female soldiers. " What she means is "I don't see any reason why Ladyboys shouldn't joining the Army, after all, there are female soldiers". 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't follow this issue closely, but for the US I would guess the issue would be more centered on born-women transing to male. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattaya Spotter Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I remember reading once in the Thai press that transgender military draft call-ups are often given a medical waiver from serving due to having "unusually" large breasts (for a man). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transgender woman would be acceptable. We politely use pronouns she/her but it's BS. The same way that women who transition to men are not men. They're women with implants. Being polite and accepting peoples choices should not be the same as confusing what people are. Kids today are learning about people claiming to be 'gender fluid' 'non-binary' etc. Self determination is exactly that. SELF determination.

I would say, by all means call yourself whatever you like and by all means live however you like, all power to you, but don't try no fob off nature's reality with spurious arguments. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that was his quote that he seemed to be using to justify his situation so it's not unreasonable to assume that he wants to be a woman in the army. If he didn't, why did he turn up dressed as one? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freigeist365 Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) Joining the army (regardless of it being just for basic training and/or several years) should be done on free will only. Anyone drafted in by "force" won't be a "well functioning" soldier anyway. A person has to have it in him/her to become a soldier, and often enough, people who really would love to join the armed forces are not drafted or are being rejected, whilst others who hate weapons, war, fighting and conflict in general, are drafted in to have a miserable year or more... My take on this: Leave the youngsters (especially transgenders) alone and let them make their own choices! Make love, not war! Btw. love all of the girls shown in the article and would take any of them to be my GF at any given time.

ThailandRyan Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) "However she said that she saw no reason why she and others like her should not be allowed to serve in the army. After all there were female soldiers". So sign them up and enlist them with the other women. Don't ask don't tell. Why the charades, many LGBT men and women serve successfully in the military.
