Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted October 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2021 Fleeing religious persecution based upon the life she wants to live without being viewed by others who have outdated religious beliefs and prosecuted for her beliefs and others helping her is awesome. 27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear of being grabbed and taken back to Malaysia I do believe. Never heard of Thailand granting anyone asylum on grounds of gender, which Thailand still has not given the LGBTQ community equality. It is accepted but not granted the rights of the chosen gender. Just look at the military conscription and then the fact that they will not change the identity cards of those who have taken the new gender as their lifestyle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_rights_in_Thailand http://thailawforum.com/Transsexuals-and-Thai-Law.html Edited October 19, 2021 by ThailandRyan 10 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the case then they are very selfish individuals. Are they being persecuted or prsecuted for their life they are living and in fear of being put to death? Not at all, so then if what you say is true then it is selfishness at it's best. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2long Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I have no opinion on this individual, but it's interesting that as a popular celebrity she gets granted asylum for her life choices of gender and being outspoken. How about all the other men, women and children who live both in fear and poverty around the world controlled by religious regimes? But I guess inviting them in is not possible. FGM for teenage girls, torture and execution for disagreeing with the wrong people etc etc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post clivebaxter Posted October 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2021 Quite ironic when you consider that Muhammad used to dress up in his wives' clothing. He even received revelations while dressed in his child bride Aisha's garments, making him the world's first and only cross-dressing prophet. ! 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also a good possibility given the laws in Australia that her gender is now listed as female on all her official documentation I am sorry but the person was born male and despite their efforts they still do not have a womb. Biologically this person is still a female. Why is it rude to call a person by the same gender-specific pronoun that has been taught, accepted and used for centuries? Why should I be forced to pretend that this person is a female when science and biology proves that he is not. While I agree that what a person does with their own body is their own business, I refuse to be dragged into or bullied into believing in their delusions. The more that you force me, the more I will kick back. BTW, this is my religious belief, so feel free to persecute me for my religious beliefs.

You can hide in the back with those who refuse to accept this for what it is. I guess if one of your kids decided that she or he was of the opposite sex and went through the transformation you would kick them to the curb and not accept their life choice. Sorry, but my first ex-wife is still stuck in the dark ages as well and will not accept out daughter who is LGBTQ. I guess your kicking back would be to deny they are your child, much like my ex.... 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's where you want to be with your views then your more than welcome to believe the way you do. The issue becomes when it affects your daily life and you make comments such as "call me when she gives birth", does not truly show you even understand either male of female gender when it comes to other issues. I agree to disagree with you and move on. This lady that was relocated on Asylum to Australia is one of a few who will have escaped being persecuted as you so put it.
