Why not a transsexual for premier?
Report from Bangkok Post dated Saturday 12 May 2007 :-
Why not a transsexual for premier? Pattaya - Thanyaras Jiraphatphakorn, after predicting that Thailand may one day have a "lady boy" for prime minister, was crowned the new Miss Tiffany Universe early Saturday morning at the country's oldest transvestite beauty pageant. Judges awarded the 20-year-old Thanyaras - a Kasetsart University student whose real name is Disanee Jitrapajin - the Miss Tiffany Universe crown based on his "charming lady-like appearance" and "brilliant" answers to their probing questions. In the intelligence contest, when asked whether its was possible for a "katoey" or "lady boy" to become a politician, Thanyaras answered, "Sure, it is. In the future, there might be prime minister who is a lady boy." However, he added that much depends on whether Thai society can change their negative views of katoeys. "Society should judge people by what they do rather than considering what sex they are," opined Thanyaras. "Today, society sees ladyboys as sinful people. What do think about that?" she asked the audience, which was packed with local and foreign men. Thanyaras was crowned Miss Tiffany Universe 2007 at 12:30 am Saturday with runners up Pharavee "Bell" Chatpakorn, 18, and Pimchanok Hongsopa, 21, both of them college students. "The contest this year was most difficult to judge," said Alisa Phanthusak, assistant managing director of Tiffany's Show Pattaya Company, the organiser of the event. "I think she (Thanyaras) won because she answered questions very well and most people thought she was the cutest girl and her eyes look like those of real woman." The pageant was an outgrowth from the nightly Tiffany Show in Pattaya, a Thai beach resort situated 90 kilometres east of Bangkok that is best known for its swinging night life. The Miss Tiffany Universe contest was launched in 1998 in tandem with the government's "Amazing Thailand Year," a publicity campaign that emphasised the country's unique tourist attractions. --- KatoeyNewsNetwork |

In burst of glitter, Thailand names most beautiful transsexual
Report from The Nation dated Saturday 12 May 2007 :-
In burst of glitter, Thailand names most beautiful transsexual PATTAYA - A 21-year-old student and aspiring social worker was named Thailand's most beautiful transsexual late Friday, in a pageant bursting with glitter and sequins that has become a national spectacle. In a nation obsessed with beauty pageants and renowned for its sexual tolerance, the Miss Tiffany Universe competition is taken every bit as seriously as more traditional pageants here. Wearing a white beaded evening gown, Thanyarasmi Siraphatphakorn won the crown in the early hours of Saturday after a glittering competition that was broadcast on national television. Known locally as "kathoey," or the third gender, Thai transsexuals have slowly been leaving cabarets for mainstream success in music or other pursuits, helped in part by the popularity of the Miss Tiffany contest. "I am so happy to win the title. This is the biggest dream of every kathoey," Thanyarasmi told reporters after winning the tiara, a 100,000 baht (2,900 dollar) cash prize, and a new Mercedes Benz. The winners of the Miss Tiffany pageant, now in its 10th year, are often showered with entertainment deals, but Thanyarasmi said she wanted to return to the impoverished Issan region where she grew up to become a social worker. "I want to become a social worker. Many people, particularly in Issan, do not have many opportunities, so they need help from teachers and social workers to improve their lives," she said. The contestants compete in evening gowns and cocktail dresses, while other kathoey performers danced in garters, fishnets and feathered head-dresses. Judges also made a nod to Thailand's political turmoil, using the question and answer segment to quiz the contestants about their hopes for the constitution currently being drafted by a military-appointed panel. Many contestants said they hoped the new charter would for the first time guarantee legal protections for gays, or that a kathoey politician would emerge to join in the process. Seri Wongmonta, a prominent academic and an organiser of the event, said the judges asked political questions to show that the contestants are more than just pretty faces. "Over the next five or 10 years, Thai kathoeys will become more and more famous for their beauty and their brains," he said. --- KatoeyNewsNetwork |

Re: About Trans...
I treid my first pre-op trans this year in BKK.
Though she is nice and accomodating, it just felt false. Her breast were so stretched that it felt taut and hard. And they tend to over do on the make up and hair spray. Overall, it was an experience. Just wanted to get it out of my system. Will I bonk another trans? I dunno. |

Re: About Trans...
Bro tanhockgin, usually the boobs get soft after a while and then it's sometimes hard to tell them from the real thing. The incisions of old where you see a scar under the breasts are gone too, nowadays it's done under the armpit.
Some of the trans I know look very good even without the make-up although I will never forget the sight of one, who's now in the U.K. , when I saw her in the daytime without make-up

Re: About Trans...
This thread needs a bump. Those thinking of venturing into this world like myself, it is very informative.
Any more tips from anyone else? |
