harryviking Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 These LB's can be rather annoying and pushy at times, so someone "higher up" should give them the advice to back off, or people should just stop visiting Walking Street! Plenty of nice places to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew65 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 20 hours ago, smedly said: I remember walking alone in pattaya and 2 trans women walked up me from behind and one them tried to distract me while the other had a hand in back pocket trying to remove my wallet, not saying that's what happened in this case but it wouldn't surprise me, they do have a reputation for such things, I can easily see how this can happen One thing that I used to do when living in Thailand (20 years) was to never carry a wallet, or my passport for that matter. Basically I just used to carry a roll of cash. Part of my thinking was whay carry plastic cards, driving licence etc when I don't really need to? And think of the hassle of replacing thise things if they're lost or stolen, regardless of any monetary loss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gottfrid Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 16 hours ago, BangkokReady said: Not to find out what happened and see if the foreign man needs to be legally punished? Shocking! Unfortunately, the law will say that he has to be legally punished, as the reaction will be seen as using more violence then necessary. That he is foreigner, will of course contribute to a more harsh punishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis7 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Finally someone could stand up . Bravo . Why Police is insisting them the shemales to file complaint? There were countless attacks on the foreigners in the past resulting even hospitalization, police wasn’t so keen . Look if you want a fair treatment then act fair . You only want the foreigners to come and spend their money but you won’t protect them , trust me you are not doing your country’s image a favor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daejung Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Is a ladyboy a "transwoman" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabradelmar Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 who knows... pushy LB (hardly an excuse to throw hands), dispute over services, homophobic foreigner... regardless, I place the blame on the person with no self control, who leans into violence because they are inconvenienced or uncomfortable. And whom ever fits that description, is the true lowlife and real the problem. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether or not "transwoman" means any gender-associated surgery has been done on them, I don't know. I think in this article, they just mean a gay man who is dressed up like a woman and wants to be treated like one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordgrinz Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 6 minutes ago, WDSmart said: You must take the severity of the "assault" into consideration. I do not have a full knowledge of Thai law, but in my home country, the USA, you cannot hit someone in the face and "knock them out" just for touching you. The "touch" would have to be in your private parts, holding you to keep you from leaving, or a clear attempt to steal something, not just because they touched you. If you act the way you say you would, that would be assault. It's self defense to me, I'll protect myself whatever way I see fit.....I don't care about the consequences afterwards, as long I am walking away in one piece unmolested.

You might be "walking away in one piece" or "running away" like the Farang in this video. And also, most likely (I hope), he will be adjudicated and put into jail for a while and then deported. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trans women in the West get very offended if you call them ladyboys because in their mind, they are real women and ladyboys are just guys dressing up. Make sense of that logic if you can.

How many times and how hard I was slapped or groped would make a difference in whether I would want the person prosecuted or not. If they stole something from me, I would want them prosecuted. I understand and I agree with the sentiments. but it just doesn't work like that here. especially in such places as Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've lived in Thailand for over 20 years but have never been to Pattaya and don't ever care to go there. What I don't understand, though, is with its reputation, why would Farangs go there and walk the streets at night expecting anything other than having sex workers aggressively seeking them as clients? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kennypowers Posted June 19 Popular Post Share Posted June 19 Sucker punches like that are cowardly. She (yes, I know) could have smacked her head on the floor and died, or caused brain damage. He was under no threat and could have just run off or called for assistance. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BangkokReady Posted June 19 Popular Post Share Posted June 19 (edited) I actually didn't bother to watch the video until just now, since @charleskerins commented that it was a sucker-punch and I was curious. (Not a sucker punch, as the ladyboy had turned her attention towards the guy who hit her and was about to start shouting at him.) What I thought was interesting, was that the ladyboy looked to be harassing the first guy, and even hits/slaps him on the back, but the "security" didn't bat an eyelid until the Thai person was hit. Pretty sad really. It seems like security is there mainly to protect Thais while they scam tourists. It certainly doesn't make you want to go there.

The ladyboy finishes assaulting the first guy, then turns to the second and starts pointing to him as he throws the punch. You can't call it a sucker punch if the recipient is looking at the guy when he throws it. It's likely that the guy who punched the ladyboy only did so because she turned on him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangkokReady Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 19 minutes ago, lordgrinz said: I hope they don't find him, and I also hope they prosecute the ladyboy for assault. Apparently they need someone to come forward and make a complaint, so it's unlikely that the first guy is going to come forward. He could, in theory, say that he only just met the second guy and he doesn't even know his name, as that would allow him to make a complaint against the ladyboy for assault. Unfortunately, it's unlikely that the police would believe him, and they might try to pin the punch to the ladyboy on him. You would have thought that the police would tell the ladyboy, "Make a complaint if you want, but you did harass and assault the other guy first". Perhaps because they don't actually care about that and don't feel that the ladyboy needs to be "legally punished". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
