JomtienEats Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) Lesbians have great visibility in Chiang Mai. I don't think I've ever observed as many lesbians as I have here. Is it that it is particularly easy to spot the butch/femme pairings, is it a more easygoing place, greater numbers, or something else? edit: Also beginning to see more western/thai lesbian pairings . . before it was all thai/thai.

JomtienEats Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 More lesbian then Lesbos? Easily so . . . . >In 2008, a group of Lesbos islanders lost a court case against the Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece. The Lesbos islander group had requested a legal injunction to ban homosexual groups from using the word "lesbian" in their names, which the petitioners claim violated their human rights as it is "insulting" and disgraces them around the world. They sound disgraceful all right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post hellodolly Posted May 12, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2013 Who cares There are plenty who are straight and I see no problem with having them here. I have no proof but I bet there are a good percentage of them putting into society. How do you tell one from another? I knew one couple and one I was suspicious of at first then I got to know her. But the other one if I didn't know them and talked with them I would never have suspected it. They were a very nice couple who worked hard to make a living. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qdinthailand Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 so how many other Thai cities have you scoured for lesbians? in other words, the basis for your statement - the facts - not some half-baked theory based on limited observations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic would say that the lesbian capital of Thailand is definitely Bangkok. But it's so big of course they get diluted. Darn that lesbian dilution! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 . As the OP's research maybe more observational then demographic ... for the Lesbian Community, one City, on a per capita basis, does hold the title in Australia. A recent television documentary called Destiny in Alice said the town became a "haven" for lesbians after several hundred women marched on the Pine Gap intelligence base in 1983. "Many of the participants in the protests were lesbians who came, saw and decided to stay," the ABC said. "Since then, the town of Alice Springs has become a haven for lesbians." Here For those who don't know where Alice Springs is in Australia ... it's about 1,200 klms from the middle of no-where (in any direction) and about 400 klms NNE of Ayers Rock. The Lesbian Community and Alice Springs* ... certainly makes for a strange bedfellows. *The Alice really is in the middle of no-where and it seems to me an unlikely lighthouse for their community. .

Jingthing Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) I bet Northampton, Massachusetts beats Alice Springs. Known as Lesbianville USA. (In any case, most lesbians per capita in the USA.) Edited May 12, 2013 by Jingthing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand is something else but in the west cities with lots of gays are usually quite aware of that and DO CARE in a positive way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
