Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

Police in Sattahip have tracked down and questioned a 32-year-old ladyboy seen in a viral video recorded during Songkran celebrations in Bang Saray, Chon Buri, on 20 April 2026. The ladyboy has since been fined under public indecency laws following behaviour deemed inappropriate in a public space.

The footage, which circulated widely online, was taken along Bang Saray Beach Road during the “Wan Lai” water festival, when large crowds of Thai and foreign tourists gathered for Songkran festivities. Police reported that groups of young revellers, including women and ladyboys, were seen wearing revealing clothing, dancing to loud music and behaving in ways considered unsuitable for a public festival environment. At around 23:00, one individual was seen removing parts of their clothing while dancing on a vehicle, with witnesses saying alcohol consumption appeared to be a factor.

Sattahip Police Station later identified and summoned the 32-year-old ladyboy featured in the clip for questioning. The suspect admitted attending the festival, drinking alcohol and acting in a manner that had gone too far. The ladyboy also issued an apology for the behaviour during the event.

Authorities said the suspect was fined under public indecency provisions for acts considered shameful in public, including exposing or revealing the body and engaging in obscene behaviour. The case followed complaints submitted on 21 April, with residents and observers raising concerns about conduct at a festival traditionally promoted as family-friendly.

Amarin reported that the incident has prompted wider discussion in the local community about standards of behaviour during major public events such as Songkran in Bang Saray. Concerns were also raised about the potential impact on the area’s tourism image, given the presence of families and international visitors at the celebration.

Where's Kevin Bacon when the Thai people need him?

April 14, 2023

Thai authorities have issued four “iron rules” for Songkran revellers in a bid to prevent celebrations from getting out of hand.

"The rules prohibit nudity, half-naked appearances, face-daubing with powder, and the use of high-pressure water guns."

'Residents and observers raised concerns' at the goings on at around 11o'clock in the evening. One wonders why such sensitive souls were in attendance at such a late hour

Funny how this group of flamboyant, flaming homosexuals is given a unique moniker and status. Ever walked past a 'pride' gathering after the parade? Makes the trannies here look tame.

And quite an impressive chest, truth be told.

Why are you so threatened by these people? What are you afraid of? That you might actually be attracted to them? I don't see you complaining about murders, violence, scammers, robberies, etc. Wonder why you're fixated on this?

Gawd. What with everything that goes on here, they do get their knickers in a twist if anyone is looking.

What ?!!!...fining a thai local ladyboy ? this is totally unacceptable and the officer having drafted the fine will end up in a "inactive post" during the enquiry. Totally unacceptable to reprimand a local Thai. Really...🤣

Wonder how they 'tracked her down'? Must be locally well-known in certain circles.

Because he does not like deviants 🤷🏼

I don't understand.

Was this guy totally naked, or not?

The image is deceptive.

Seems like you are too!

Get a life, man - who is threatened? All the posts I have read appear quite normal?

...... Except yours!

I can imagine it happened everywhere over thailand,not a good idea to put it on social media.But a small fine is the not a big issue and she is more famous on social media everywhere

So you just happened to walk past lots of naked or semi naked men and look 555

Never been to a pride march like you. You're gay and can't handle it.

Because he is attracted to them. It goes against his upbringing.

The self deception and dishonesty is what gets under my skin.

If I put on blackface and an afro wig can I demand to be recognised as black? Can I use false pretense to lure women into my bed and laugh when they see that I'm not what I purported to be? Can I say that I identify as black (I'm not) and get anything less than derision and a beating?

I've worked closely with two men who decided they were women. They were deeply troubled men, one of whom took his own life after having reassignment surgery and decided that he shouldn't have marched his troops across the Rubicon.

I've seen a few that stopped me dead in my tracks. I laughed to myself and carried on. There's nothing ambiguous about the equation. There are men and women. My upbringing was very relaxed and I have an older sister who was a fag hag. The gay men were honest about who they were and what their sexual orientation was. It's not a big deal.

Hopefully when the Aliens arrive they remove the Katoeys first .
