rxpharm Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Here's a video that shows the difficulty of lbs getting married in Thailand (although in this particular case they could be legally married).Nok Yollada is a former Miss Alacazar 2006, former Venus Fly Trap member (Thailand's 1st lb singing group), and first elected lb member to a Provincial Council. She's also an activist for transgender rights in Thailand, and a successful businesswoman, with a popular TV jewelery shopping show 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumblebee Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 There has been talk on and off about introducing same sex marriage in Thailand over the last few years but with the current state of the nation I presume that that is on the back burner for the time being.

rxpharm Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 BB, this is the 2nd time the proposed law has been delayed. The law was proposed when the Democrats were in power, and was interrupted by the election which Pheu Thai won. Then it was interrupted again when the coup took place. It will probably be 3-5 years before it will be brought up again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sustra2 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 so....why have i been proposed for marriage...not once...but twice in just 2 months from 2 different ladyboys? what do they mean by that? they've been talking about a religious marriage.....that is not infact recognized by the officials. i am used to it.....as i live in Italy, obviously the marriage between two persons of the same sex is just impossible ( you know..catholic church just in front of my house...) i personally have 2 opinions.... -one is strictly democratic and dictated by common sense....marriage or at least civil union should be authorised in italy as everywhere -The second one is more dictated by selfishness....i hope they will not allow it....will have always the excuse to butterfly.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxpharm Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 sustra2 - they are talking about a "temple ceremony", which has no legal status in Thailand or other country, so you are understanding correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiamSam Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 -The second one is more dictated by selfishness....i hope they will not allow it....will have always the excuse to butterfly....
