mca Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Ask the Germans, they've normally snapped em up before the 40th birthday ! totster I won't have you disparaging out Teutonic cousins like that totster. I simply won't. It's completely unacceptable in this day and age to pigeonhole people into small, one size fits all, racial stereotypes. Anyhow I always thought a bit of "wind, rain and lava" was their forte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katana Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 'Tuud' means 'anus' or moe colliquially 'a$$hole' in Thai.. 'Tuud' is just slang for feminine acting (submissive) male gays. It's kinda derrogatory and is used because of the association with anal sex. A bit like Westerners may call Gays 'bum boys' Khatoeys are different to feminine gay men who often have no wish to dress as or become a female.. Cos there seem to be so many shades of gay in Thailand they (the Thais) have many nicknames for them. Usually I hear older chunky unfeminine looking khatoeys referred to as 'Khaotey Kwai' Guess that isn't vey polite either. Sure members more clued up on gayness than me will have more knowledge of the terms used to describe them. ตูด DTOOT - ass, butt etc (long vowel, low tone) and DTUT ตุ๊ด - fairy, fag, tootsie etc (short vowel, high tone) are two different words in Thai. Apparently DTUT ตุ๊ด comes from the 1982 film, Tootsie starring Dustin Hoffman. http://www.baanmaha....hread38339.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bermondburi Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 Lots work in gay bars in management/product pusher roles. surely that is quite small numbers compared to the amount of LBs in normal jobs that you see everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bermondburi Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 I live in the provinces and have seen what happens across the age spectrum. As most ladyboys get older they reach a point that they can't make the girl look work anymore as they succumb to becoming fat, balding, and middle aged. They no longer use a contrived voice, wear women's clothing, or spend much time looking pretty save for special occasions. That means most people will no longer "see them" though there are effervescent telltale clues. But inside ladyboys identify themselves as being female for their entire life, preferring careers and hobbies like women. They are accepted and sometimes revered by society during their lives in ways they may not even recognize.Though some people including parents may oppose who they wish to be, it is in vain. very profound that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludditeman Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Cancer accounts for many of them according to the doctors and nurses in my family. Particularly those who start self prescribing themselves with anti-androgens and estrogen regimens at an early age. Supposedly these meds have gotten more and more potent (some say more effective) over time. Suicide also takes a lot. If you can imagine, an awful lot of inner torment is understandable if you firmly believe you are a woman but are living in an aging man's body. Do you really think living in an aging womans body would be better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travel2003 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Were there as many ladyboys around (in Thailand) 20-25 years ago, as there are now? I kind of doubt it. This I guess will also affect a fewer number of "mature" ladyboys being around. Yes? No? This is a question for the "old dogs" having been here for decades already. Good question. Thank you. But sadly, nobody knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty2009 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Firstly i do not understand why they (ladyboys) have been again put up to be ridiculed, some of the nicest and honest people i have met in Thailand are Ladyboys, not all work in bars, or have anything to do with the sex industry, many are hard working law abiding citizens, and if they do get snapped up by the Germans, who can offer them a better and more rewarding future, just wish all parties the best of luck, please do not forget the old saying about book covers, are we not all equal?, we are all looking for a way to better our lives and living standards.
