Boys will be boys, or girls or whatever!

However excellent "pointing" in several of the photographs, credit where credit is due ;-)

Agressive ladyboys are in control of every tourist beach at night.

Why are they not arrested? The only thing they do is annoy people or steal from them. It's going on for 25 years allready.

[robertthebruce]

Rough as Buckies......

Clear the streets of them......

Saying that there must be a demand for them, but who ?????

I would have to be crawling the deck with booze even to raise a smile , let alone anything else.....

[ezzra]

If I didn't read at least one time a week about a lady boy doing their little dirty tricks, I'd think

I'm not in Thailand any longer.... anyone who let those people come near them or play with

them, got it coming to them....

[Thian]

This German guy will be famous in his hometown. All his friends will ask him about the Thai ladyboys for years.

They give Thailand a very bad name and you can't avoid them. They just jump on the back of your motor or start touching you on the street.

I also know a guy who was missing his golden bracelet after 2 ladyboys came to hug him.

The police did good work though!

Point of the year.

[sawati]

You go to the dregs...you get the dregs...

[bristolgeoff]

[soalbundy]

That is some aggressive pointing, no ambiguity here

A young Rusky certainly liked them, didn't pay them and got knifed by them. So, there is a demand....

[prakhonchai nick]

I would imagine Pattaya's ladyboys can make enough money pick-pocketing and robbing farangs, that they do not need to offer sexual services.

Thank God for that, i would rather have my pocket picked.

[NickJ]

Put all those ladyboy prostitute thieves on the fishing boats.....

[northernphil]

Point of the year.

Yep ,I go along with that. Best quality point I have seen this month and not even done down the police station.

[alfalfa19]

These things could benefit from some concrete therapy. Probably the only thing that would alter their behaviors.

[springheeled jack]

I personally think the authorities should do something about these lady boys not the police , not only are they dangerous but they are not conducive to tourism people don't come to Thailand to see lady boys.

obviously a lot do, like closet gays

[BigBadGeordie]

people don't come to Thailand to see lady boys.

Are you sure about that?

[micmichd]

Wonder how the ladyboys got hold of the German's wallet if he really ignored them.

Was he drunk and stumbled?

[misterphil]

Nice photography of the guys credit cards. Not only did he get robbed but now everyone knows his bank details.

[fullcave]

Do they have special jail for lady boys or how does it work?

[DLock]

It just wouldn't be Pattaya without a ladyboy crime thread every week.

My schadenfreude gland finds these threads very amusing...

[technologybytes]

The Ladyboys are there because there is a demand for them.

They provide a unique service, most are just trying to make a living so it's sad that so many people have such negative views of them.

Sadly some are dishonest, but so are some real girls!

You can't run fast enough to keep them from coming near you... I couldn't anyway.

They can be aggressive and unpredictable and they can go off on any perceived slight.

And besides, why is it incumbent on us to keep them away?

From the article: Inside the wallet was 3,090 Baht, credit cards and other personal items which were all returned to Mr. Reimund at Pattaya Police Station. Police checks revealed the two suspects were currently on bail pending court proceedings in connection with a similar case of street robbery. They are also thought to be linked to many other similar cases.

You know, to me it seems that it is a few (mostly in Pattya & Phuket I think) L.B.'s who give all L.B.'s a bad rap. I live in Chiang Mai, and while I admit I've met some seriously "shady" LB's, I've met a whole lot more that are actually very decent people. A couple of years back my wife & I were at Kad Suan Kaew Mall and we ran into an "old friend", who was, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful young women I've ever seen. My wife and her talked for a while in a friendly and happy manner. Afterwards, my wife told me: "I've known him since he was a little boy and school mate of Peter (her son)." I said: "You mean, little girl". "Nope," my wife replied. "She's a post op LB. Owns 3 very successful, very high end, beauty shops, and hires only LB's to work for her." I was floored! Since then she's taken me to a few other places which were all pretty much staffed and owned by LB's, who were nothing but friendly, cheerful and polite. Most were pre-op, but a few were post-op. And, yes, some were definitely "male" looking, but that goes with the territory. For every "bad" or "shady" one I've met, I've met 10 more that are definitely "good people'.

I think Thailand should start to differentiate between "ladyboys" and "cross dressers". I believe there are many ladyboys out there who live the ladyboy life because they truly feel, think and behave like a female, but I can see that the ugly, masculine ones are on the rise... They simply dress up as girls and put on make up, trying to cheat, rob and eventually just cause trouble, sheddling a bad light onto all the genuine ones. I met many kind hearted, honest, and attractive ladyboys who never commited a crime, had own businesses, studied arts, etc...

That's a couple of ugly ladyboys no wonder they have to steal for a living. Good finger point by the frankfurter.

Maybe the lack of steady business is the reason the Ladyboys resort to robbery/pickpocketing, etc.

Agree...round them up then cull them
