farangbah Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Front page of today's Bangkok Post: http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/politics/295482/transgender-wins-pao-seat News > Politics POLITICS Transgender wins PAO seat Published: 29/05/2012 at 01:42 AM Newspaper section: News 0Share Transgender Yollada ''Nok'' Suanyos beat male opponents to win a seat as councillor on the Nan provincial administration organisation in an election on Sunday. Yollada: To push women’s rights Ms Yollada, 30, received 3,808 votes, edging out former Nan mayor Phawat Sattayawong, who came second with 3,659 votes in Constituency 1 of tambon Nai Wiang in Muang district, according to unofficial election results for the 24 PAO council seats. Ms Yollada, who had a sex-change operation at 16, said yesterday her position on the PAO council will help her work better with the government in solving problems regarding the rights of women and trans-female groups. Viewing herself as a ''new wave'' in politics, Ms Yollada, also the president of the Trans Female Association of Thailand, said her work would receive more support, especially from transgenders. The election on Sunday was mainly a race between two groups _ those who support incumbent PAO head Narin Laoaraya, and independent candidates wanting seats on the council to monitor PAO administrators. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrayspecs Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 She was one of the LBs featured in the first episode of the Sky ladyboy program if I am not mistaken. That's right. I suppose this is a small step towards further acceptance although I think it stressed in the program that acceptance generally only comes to successful individuals.

Papa Sam Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Transgender rights in much of Asia are extremely limited. In Malaysia, Islamic religious codes prohibit “a man posing as a woman.” Malaysia is attempting to extradite a transgender beauty entrepreneur from Thailand to face charges of insulting Islam by dressing as a woman. Nur Sajat, a 36-year-old entrepreneur and celebrity who built a successful cosmetics company, fled Malaysia after she was charged in an Islamic court for allegedly dressing as a woman at a religious event. Sajat was arrested Sept. 8 by Thai police for entering the country illegally. Muslims in Malaysia are subject to sharia law, and if convicted, Sajat could face up to three years in prison, probably in a men’s facility. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2021/09/28/nur-sarat-arrest-transgender-thailand/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 4 hours ago, Papa Sam said: Becoming the first transgender women to enter the country’s parliament, Tessa Ganserer and Nyke Slawik described the results as “unbelievable” and a “historic victory”. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/germany-parliament-transgender-women-mp-b1928180.html I could see myself willingly porking Nyke (on the right). Tessa (on the left) would test the limits of my Am-I-gayety beyond any sissy i have done... BMs who would have sex with Tessa but would not want to post to admit it can give this post a to show how it's done... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSumGai Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Quote yeah, MAN with makeup and long hair. Way past the ones you clock because of the man eyes as I call it. I've seen NO makeup on some Thai's but the eyes are as soft as a female, gestures, body language, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
