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.

Another do you know who my influential friends are because I'm a nobody child?

Don't go to the cinema in China. 

Also don't sit at the dinner table with them.

People who talk during the film in the cinema should be locked up.

Abnormal falang attacking two Thais in the theatre. The ladyboy part is irrelevant. Arrest and deport.

A Thai man physically assaulted two transwomen.

 

First sentence...

More like perhaps not. 

The only thing about this incident and their gender/sex is if they had been biological women, then they probably wouldn't have gotten a smack on the chops.

 

They would have likely been treated differently. Most men are ashamed to hit females.

Intolerant people might say call them men but they were presenting as trans so the respectful thing to do is to accurately describe that. 

I think labelling someone as intolerant is probably a bit harsh.

 

If my grandfather saw them he'd probably call a spade a spade, doesn't mean he's intolerant.

 

A child would probably accurately describe them as a man in dress. Again, no intolerance. It just is what it is.

 

A lot of people are not so wordly wise or sophisticated. Many small town people have never seen such a person.

 

And then there are people on the spectrum who see everything as factual. To them, a man is a man.

 

You really don't need to tar and feather everyone in the world who isn't up to speed with your woke/gender identity stuff as 'intolerant'

 

And if you do, then you're just as bad, ironically.

What does the fact that the 2 people were trans have any bearing on this story. It's repeated over and over and frankly shouldn't even have been mentioned!

Why are you worried? It seems they were trans, so it's a fact. To simply say "women" would be misleading. So their mentioning it gives the story more accuracy.

Give us a break.

Most everyone in Thailand is well aware of the existence of trans women (though they have different words for it). Yes, even children.

Exactly. I don't think they had any other good choice but to report it as they did.

Trans women. If you don't know what that means, look it up. Many don't seem to get such basic things.

It isn't basic.

 

It isn't even relevant to most people. 

 

Imagine thinking the world revolves around your little group of people. Jeez. 

 

The whole gender ideology is no more important than any religion.

 

Jesus identified as the son of God. Not everyone has to accept it, or look it up, or be interested in it.

 

If a man identifies as a woman, fine. But this topic is not for everyone.

[Photoguy21]

I used to go to the cinema but haven't for several years. You get people talking and crunching crisps whilst the movie is running. It is impolite and very annoying so I just don't bother now

Presumably you're in Thailand?

The existence of such people whatever the labels in an ancient and well understood part of Thai culture. I would be hard to find a Thai who doesn't know about it.

Thailand is a unique case as ladyboys have been in Thailand for a long time.

 

So, yes, in Thailand people are aware of it more than most other places in the world and children do understand the concept intellectually once they are old enough, but it is not something that children instinctively or naturally understand.

From the article"

"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."

So, if a person outside of Thailand referred to them as men, would you give them a pass? Or would they be intolerant too?

Not way off in the slightest.

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. 

 

New study explores stigma and discrimination against trans women in Thailand | United Nations Development Programme (undp.org)

The quote in the article stated what the guy said...  NOTHING about transphobic...   so, my comment stands, and you just wanted to publish something?  OK..  you published your nonsense.. you need to move on lil boy.

[richard_smith237]

But, they were attacked because they 'shushed' the inconsiderate pr!ck who lost face and retaliated with violence. 

 

There's no need to shoe-horn this into an issue of sexuality and gender identity...  

 

There's no need to make more of it than that. 

IF it were two 185cm guys, nothing may have happened, or they may have been attacked. 

IF it were two puny 150cm Thai girls, nothing may have happened, or they may have been attacked. 

IF it were two puny 160cm Thai guys, nothing may have happened, or they may have been attacked. 

IF it were two slim 160cm Transwomen, nothing may have happened, or they may have been attacked. 

 

There are simply too many what-ifs to jump on the LGBTQIA+ Bandwagon (or whatever it is these days) and play gay victim.

 

 

This was just a total a55hole who was inconsiderate and then attacked someone after losing face. 

 

The unhinged pr!ck needs to be dealt with and I fully support the two 'people' who were attacked.

The ones that get me are those that buy those stanky dill pickles and pollute 5 rows front and back of them.  I rarely went to the movies in Thailand, so I don't know what stinks them up...

But you are speaking about gender ideology. 

 

You aren't even speaking about the actual incident.

 

You are taking it to a broader level of discussion.

 

And now you don't want to discuss it anymore ????

I agree... totally irrelevant that they were 'trans'...  would it read 'two heterosexual women'?  if they were hetero?  Of course not!

I think it's just for accuracy.

 

If the report just said "women" the reader would assume they were biological women, which they were not. Same as if the "women" were foreign it would have been mentioned because it adds a layer to the story which anyone who has lived here for any period of time would know may have had an impact on the guy's reaction to them.

Because Jing attempted to play his 'LGBTQIA+ victim card' and no one is interested because its obvious that this isn't an issue of sexual identity, it's an issue of an a55hole attacking two 'people' because he lost face....

I'd have reported them as trans men or ladyboys, personally.
