Angus55 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) My colleagues and I have often speculated on the reasons for the comparatively high numbers of womanly men in Thailand. What do you think are the reasons? Edited May 18 by Angus55 1 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimTripper Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) Most don't have that masculine personality. I have not seen many John Wayne's here. The exceptions were the guys who did leatherwork in the North around Chiang Mai, making wallets, saddles, belts and such, or handmade silver jewelry. Other exceptions are metalheads and those into hard rock music. Everyone else comes across as kind of "girly" from my Usa perspective. Kind of a lack of character or edge is the best I can describe it. Edited May 18 by JimTripper 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Kinnock Posted May 18 Popular Post Share Posted May 18 There was a study published a few years ago (was reported on "Thaivisa") about comparative Testosterone levels in men from different countries. If I remember correctly, African countries were the highest, followed by Southern European, then Northern Europe, then Korea and Japan. Thailand was near the lowest. Factor in a culture that accepts people as they are (no need to hide your sexual orientation like you need to in Korea, Alabama or Wigan), and you get the full spectrum on show. 3 2 4 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Religion plays a significant part in that. Beliefs that include reincarnation are more tolerant, as it allows for some ambiguity. Whereas the Abrahamic religions don't, 'god created man and woman' has no room for ambiguity. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky to survive. However that was 30 years ago. Hes now happily married with kids to a Thai and living sober here.

Why would you assume that his comment about Thai people ganging up on others meant he had been attacked by a lone ladyboy? That makes zero sense.

But I thought biology that creates male and female was the determinate in order to procreate the species (or population - notice how they are falling around the world including especially, Japan, Korea, Thailand and China). I for one do not know, and basically I don't care one way or the other as long as they don't bother me. Live and let live is my motto but some people seem to think that it obviously means something different from what I feel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mammalian biology is indeed quite specific, you need a male and a female to create offspring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celsius Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 My Thai (100% Chinese) wife claims that Thai men are cowards and p🐈. One thing (or so she claims) is that Thai men will always use their woman for some benefit. When she was younger she only dated Chinese. When she got older obviously the Chinese men stopped being interested, so she got stuck with a Farang like myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retarius Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 I think it is because all male TV actors wear lipstick. You might say "Ahhh lipstick never did a boy any harm".....but it might be the thin edge of the wedge for some impressionable boys. Start with lipstick and end up as a lady boy. You cannot be too careful. And don't get me started but look at all the 'boy bands'....not a toxic male anywhere to be seen, handbag wearing, made up tarts.
