Pattaya Transgender Person Pickpockets Russian Couple and Gets Arrested

[Jingthing]

I thinks its fine to identify transgender people in the news. That's much better than the right wing movement in the US to make LGBT people especially transgender people invisible and act like they don't even exist.

No golden snatch, it's why they do it.

Let me toss out another word into the mix that I'm extremely surprised hasn't been posted:

 

Katoey......

the problem with ladyfruitcakes is that thai society shuns them and they cant get a proper job, so they either steal, or sell their bodies....same as blacks in USA...so they have to steal, but stealing from 2 russkies....that does not bother me a lot

Demonstrably untrue. I know a number of transgenders and they work in shops, bars, department stores and restaurants. They're generally seen as reliable.

 

And you might want to rein-in the unnecessary trans slurs.

The correct wording now is: "A person who identifies as a woman".

It may not be up to them. It may be in possession of the extremist woke "progressives". In the US they control the way people are supposed to speak, the curriculum in schools, etc. And it is likely they are 2% of the population, if that.

Oh for heaven’s sake. “Transgender person” and “ladyboy” are both perfectly good words. If, in coming years, “ladyboy” comes to be considered offensive, it won’t be because of directives from “extremist woke progressives” (??) but rather the natural evolution of language, which is an entirely organic process.

 

Nobody “controls the way people speak,” neither progressives nor bigots who revel in deliberately insulting language. And while I agree with you that some efforts by university administrators and others to institute language policies are misguided and overbearing, they are usually well intentioned -- it’s not about “control” (control over whom, and for what purpose?) but about being inclusive and nonthreatening. Don’t misinterpret it.

 

I make every effort to be woke -- in the actual meaning of the word, as originally used by abolitionists in the US and later by Marcus Garvey, Lead Belly, and many others others who were active in civil rights and other efforts. It means to be aware, and if another person’s circumstances aren’t identical to yours, to listen and try to understand. So why aren’t you woke?

"The term kathoey may be considered pejorative, especially in the form kathoey-saloey. It has a meaning similar to the English language 'fairy' or 'queen'.[12] Kathoey can also be seen as a derogatory word for those who are gay.[13]"

I think they meant the gold snatcher. 

I'm guessing the "transgender" doesn't yet have a snatch, so should be the gold tackler.

is there a hypocrisy in thai society?

on the one hand, they seem to be tolerant but on the other hand not so much (employment ...)?

"Tranny" is still the correct word, I believe

Because being woke now, is entirely different I meaning than the sort of woke you refer to. Being woke in today's world means being unconscious and under a hypnotic spell of the leftist extremists. Just one aspect of this disease:

 

Ironically, the sexist woke movement has allowed men to take hormones and undergo surgery to become females—even as their immutable skeleton frames, muscularity, or organ characteristics ensure an unfair and asymmetrical contest.

 

The lives of thousands of young female athletes will likely be diminished. Each sprinter, every swimmer, and all female pole-vaulters will now inevitably at some future date have a rendezvous with career implosion—defined by losing to a transgendered female/biological male.

It's a warning to those who do not know that many of them operate that way.

How do you remove 2 necklaces with a hug AND pick a pocket (or two).

With lots of practice.  Ask an LB pickpocket.

So want happens to the necklaces - do the actual owners the people get them back is it an insurance thing as shop owner bought in good faith does the shop owner get done for "fencing"

The owner gets them back as they are his property, regardless of the "good faith" of the pawn shop buying non-Thai gold pieces from an LB.

Snatching is a 5 years minimum behind bars same as snatching a buffalo or anything dealing with a buffalo

No, it is not five years minimum, five years is the maximum  This was theft by pickpocketing, anyway.

Why not? Katoey is a Thai word. Ladyboy is English translation. I see no slur there.

 

Farang is a Thai word. Caucasian foreigner is English translation. Sounds racist to me.
