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.

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.

And also, most likely (I hope), he will be adjudicated and put into jail for a while and then deported. I hope they don't find him, and I also hope they prosecute the ladyboy for assault. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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...

Mason45 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 When I first hit Pattaya 25 years ago I never seen a lady boy especially around sois 7 and 8 where I used to drink. One night I ventured down to Walking Street and I seen them in Pattaya for the first time. Since then they're every where, I suppose they think I their sister can throw it around Pattaya why can't they. I'll never forget a trip to Maha Sarakham years ago. My friend got more than friendly with a lady boy and she took us to she her family. The mother was so excited to see us but the lady boys father was totally devastated, he ran into a forest behind their house crying his eyes out. At the time I wished I wasn't there as I felt so sorry for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This just left a narrow stretch of pavement between the buses and the wall. As I walked home in the early hours towards the buses, two ladyboys were closing in on me from behind, just in time, I noticed two more in front of me who were heading to cut me off if I walked between the buses. Fortunately I realised what was happening and diverted to the pavement by the beach. I've an idea what might have happened had I walked between the buses and the wall.

That he is foreigner, will of course contribute to a more harsh punishment. The vile homophobia/transphobia displayed here is no excuse for gratuitous violence. The coward sucker punched and ran. I certainly hope they are held to account Fined (heavily) and jailed. Then deported as persona non grata. Permanently. Probably never should have been let into the country if criminal checks had been required. Nobody comes to Thailand then suddenly attacks a person in the street.

jacko45k Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 14 hours 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. We aren't in the USA so I do not see why this is relevant. Also my recollection is that the people there would not take well to being touched or grabbed at random. Here in Thailand physical contact is less usual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
