Despite having some of the greatest attractions in Thailand like The Big Buddha, Namuang Waterfall, Sawadee Shrine and Magic Buddha Garden, we can not dismiss the popularity of lady boys walking freely around country. I’m sure Thailand would love to be well known for their national icons, but its been such a common practice amongst men in Thailand that we need to be increasingly aware of who we talk to while visiting cities like Bangkok (no pun intended) or Phuket.

How To Spot Lady Boys

Unfortunately with the help of advance medical technology, its becoming harder to recognize male from female. Here’s a few tips:

1/ Check for Adam’s apple: Some men don’t have enough money to remove their Adam’s apple, so keep an eye out for this. Personally, I’d just grab their necks but maybe this approach is a bit direct.

2/ Check facial features: Wouldn’t be interesting if you saw a “female” with a few bristles stemming from their chin.

3/ Check the hips: You might be able to notice a different body structure, but even these days, some men are actually removing their ribs to form a more “lady like” figure.

4/ Check other bodily features: No need to go into details here. You can figure it out.

5/ Check passport: Perhaps the only real accurate way to check is on the passport. Thailand still does not allow individuals to change their sex status. If they are real lady boys, it must have a capital “M” for male. Lets hope the local government does not change this rule.

Don’t take this the wrong way. Lady boys are still very nice people. This might not be a good idea, but since we specialize in hotels, heres a few excellent hotels in Bangkok.
