webfact Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 A Thai man physically assaulted two transwomen at a theatre in a shopping mall in Chon Buri after the two asked him to stop talking while watching a movie. The victims, 27 year old Cher and 26 year old Joy decided to share the story with ThaiRath as the attacker claimed that he was powerful and knew a lot of influential police officers. They added that they filed a complaint against the attacker at the Laem Chabang Police Station but were worried that officers would ignore their case. According to Cher and Joy, they heard two men and a woman chattering from the seats behind them while they were in the theatre. Tolerating over half an hour, Cher and Joy asked them to lower their voices. “Could you please lower your voice a little?” The two claimed that the man rudely responded to them. “What the f*** is wrong with you! Watch the movie in the theatre for the first time, huh? You are such a country bumpkin! If you want to watch a movie in a quiet place, go back home! We watch the movie like this here!” Photo of Petch Petpailin Photo via Facebook/ เอ.อี.ซี นิวส์ พัทยา Full story: https://thethaiger.com/news/national/silent-film-chaos-man-attacks-transwomen-at-mall-theater-for-shushing -- The Thaiger 2023-09-12 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

There is a difference when the entire audience is cheering (good memories watching Rocky movies in the 80's) and one d1khead disturbing everyone in the cinema. 11 2 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 (edited) Different cultures have different norms in how they watch movies. I'll never forget the first time I saw a movie in downtown Chicago. No, I didn't object. That would have been crazy!

If the perp said something transphobic during the incident or to the police then you would know whether that was a factor or not. If nothing was said, then correct, you wouldn't know.

It's repeated over and over and frankly shouldn't even have been mentioned! It depends on what actually happened. Suppose they were foreigners and there were signs that the hostility was related to that. If they were foreigners, it would have been mentioned regardless. I don't think it's bad reporting to mention they were trans. It brings up the possibility that the violence might have been related to that, which in actually is true, it might have been. 1 3 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FruitPudding Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I suspect it mentioned that they were trans women to make it seem more newsworthy. A couple of blokes getting a smack on the chops isn't really newsworthy; society doesn't care about male-on-male violence, unless it's particularly serious. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also for the news with transgender women they had to say whether they were men or women. Intolerant people might say call them men but they were presenting as trans so the respectful thing to do is to accurately describe that. They did that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
