Report Thai Transwomen Removed from Exam for Gender Expression
Photo via Facebook/ Panusara Ngaokot Two Thai transwomen seek justice after being barred from a teacher licensing exam for dressing as their gender identity rather than their biological sex. Yesterday, Punyaphat Dechbanrung shared her experience on Facebook, expressing her disappointment over unequal treatment. She posted a photo in her female university uniform and described being removed from the exam after 30 minutes. The exam committee cited her title, "Mister," as the reason she shouldn't wear a skirt. The exam's dress code required candidates to dress "politely" or in their university uniform, with no mention of biological sex. Punyaphat emphasised this oversight as both a waste of time and a missed opportunity. Following her post, another transwoman, Panusara Ngaokot, reported a similar encounter. Panusara, who completed her university studies as a woman, was also told to leave the exam. Despite the option to reapply, she criticised the use of gender identity to judge someone's capability as a teacher. Panusara highlighted her removal after 20 minutes of the test, questioning why diversity is not embraced among educators if it is to be taught to children. The Teachers’ Council of Thailand has not yet responded publicly or proposed a resolution. The situation underscores ongoing challenges for the LGBTQIA+ community in Thai society, raising questions about inclusivity and acceptance. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-06-23 -
