Hi
all,
I'm
really glad you're visiting my site!
If we've already traded e-mails or
you've gotten to know me a bit from my Yahoo club, hopefully this can be a
way to get to know me even better --
and of course to see a whole
lot more of me in my members area.
To begin with some basic info:
I'm a 25 y/o Thai lady boy from Thailand. If you don't know what that means,
boy are you in the wrong place! ; )
Let me tell you about my life up until now-
I was born January 8, 1983
(so I'm a Capricorn) in Bangkok.
I've lived here all my life and love it!
My only sibling is an older sister.
My
parents took care of me as they would a girl. They dressed me in
girl's clothes and gave me girl's toys. Throughout school, I had only girls as
friends.
When I became older, I was sent to an all-boys high school -
and found myself very different compared to them.
I became confused as to whether
I was a girl or boy.
When I was age 13, I had my first
boyfriend. I was surprised to find that his body looked the same as
mine.
I suddenly realized that I was physically a boy. Later,
when I met a 'ladyboy'
(or "kathoey" as we are known here) in my class, I realized that I was
one of them. My boyfriend showed me how I could become a ladyboy. I began to take hormones, wear make up, and wear women's clothes
outside of school.
When I was 15, my mother asked me to become a
proper boy again. She was afraid that if I continued to be a
ladyboy,
my life would become difficult. But she could see how unhappy her
words made me. So she told me to be what I wanted but try to avoid
any harm and continue with my education. From that moment, I
began to live full-time as a woman.
When I was 19, I had another
boyfriend, who had lived as a ladyboy for some time, but then he went back to
living as a man. After we had been going out for several months, we
began to have differences - and I discovered that he was gay.
I
wondered how it could be that a man could love other man. I could
not accept having a gay boyfriend. I realized that sex and gender
came in many variations and that we were not right together.
When I first met tourists, I had to
work hard to learn English - particularly when I worked briefly as a
showgirl at the famous "Calypso Cabaret" in Bangkok.
Now I
speak English every day.
I enjoy photography, fashion, dancing,
films, popular music, and travel.
I love the beach, and my favorite
vacation or play place is Phi Phi Island in
Krabi Province in the South of Thailand.
I graduated with a major in English at
the University
Of The Thai Chamber of Commerce.
One day I would like to be a
tourist guide so that I can meet interesting people from all over the world,
travel throughout the country, and obtain a comfortable standard of living
in Bangkok. Unfortunately it is difficult
for a ladyboy to become a tourist guide because a lot of employers
unfairly believe that we give Thailand a negative image.
As a result, our futures
are uncertain because, even with a university degree, it is difficult for
transsexuals to find respectable occupations.
The fate that befalls most
of us is working as shop assistants, hairdressers, waitresses, bar
girls or prostitutes.
We call ourselves the "purple people" because of our
stigmatized and downtrodden status in society.
This is an aspect of "Amazing Thailand", the "Land of
Smiles," which is
invisible even to transgender tourists who visit Thailand. We may
have a transgender paradise - but it is for tourists, and not for us.
Even after our SRS, our documents still refer to us as men. Western
expatriates have an apt expression to refer to anything which is
incomprehensible, illogical, or unacceptable in our country - "TIT" (This is
Thailand) which is equivalent to the expression "deal with it"
or '"live with it
I'm
excited about having this new website and look forward to hearing all your
suggestions for photo layouts and video scenes. I'm for real and when
you join my site, you'll have a chance to see all of me!
Are you man enough to be my lover? |
