webfact Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Thailand tries out a special wing for transgender inmates By Axel Kronholm Special to the Washington Post BANGKOK, Thailand – It has been a while since Ao recognized herself in the mirror. Her voice is still gentle and light, but her skin has become tougher; her muscles bigger and facial hair thicker. “Everything is changing. I used to have a very feminine figure and long, flowing hair. It is all very scary,” said the 28-year-old, who is serving an eight-year prison sentence for smuggling 24 kilos of marijuana. Like many transgender women, Ao had been taking hormones so that her physical appearance would better match her gender identity. In prison, however, such medications are not allowed.

ezzra Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 If only the majority of them weren't such a nasty people and with a scary reputation I'd feel a compassion toward them, but I don't as they're no nice people and they don't anything to change this image...

Will it be a new tourist attraction? 24 kilos of weed...Rather stupid when it's illegal. Got nothing against weed, nor anybody's lifestyle, but they'll probably have the bearded "ladies" in a ring, boxing in bikinis next week to attract busloads of Chinese tourists.

Misterwhisper Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 So she got a mere 8 years for smuggling 24 KILOGRAMS of marijuana. Meanwhile, "someone else" received 15 years for 251 MILLIGRAMS of cocaine. (Actually, the initial police report said 5 - yes, FIVE! - milligrams, but that amount "miraculously" transformed into 251 milligrams in a later report...) Sometimes I really think sentences in this country are drawn from a hat by the judges. It all seems so random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiamBeast Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 A dude is a dude. Society is binary. Get over it. While we have to treat them like humans, we don't have to accomodate them like that, especially not in prison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2 X 4 strapped to yer derriere used to be an old joke when a buddy was going after a promiscuous slut. "Make sure ya don't fall in Buddy!" Nothing to do with tranny's really, & could apply to all of Pattaya & half of BKK. Edited March 17, 2017 by jaywalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case the concern would be moreso whether to allow any soft or hard wood to be anywhere near your behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
