Pacman Wangsuda, Great comments / insight and advice. Excellent that many are taking the time to share their thoughts, experience / expertise on this thread.

Lot of good comments here, so here is another question since we are on the topic of Lady Boy Families. Is one required to give the traditional Dowry to the Ladyboy's parents if they get married? (Please don't everyone start thinking that I am getting married at this time, just a topic for discussion)

First off great topic to discuss. I am new in a relationship with LB and when I see a discussion that certainly relates I get interested. I haven't yet gone to the village but have met her sisters in Bangkok on a recent trip. It was a great evening but of course one can't help but wander what the sisters are thinking about the man who is with the LB sister/brother. I imagine it will be more of an eye opener meeting the parents. I am always wondering how One will be accepted. I very much understand the Thai culture of acceptance, I come from a very tolerant country being Canada. I can`t help but keep thinking about the show Modern Family, my luck being meeting the Thai Jay Prtichett type Dad :-) I can only say now that it is another step in a relationship with a Lady boy. I certainly hope for the same acceptance as others have received and that the parents can be proud of their "daughter"

You are very correct. I am in relationship and it became public a while back yet the Trophy Hunters seem content on trying to spoil the relationship. I would actually think that any guy would envy and have the respect of a person who publicly is involved with a LB. I can understand why many hide the fact but can't understand those who chose to try and ruin happiness between 2 people.

I always have stayed President Palace Sukhumvit Soi 11. I have checked in here with LB no problems at all. Staff are very polite and welcoming. Many good restaurant and bars on this street. Easy access to sky train. Rooms are very good and it is a reasonable price. You can book direct on their site, sometimes better deals than what you will find on hotel booking sites.
