Hi:

That's not what I got. When I hit The Link, bunch of guys tramping around inside a cave. Interesting but not "Ladyboys!"

Peace and Love, Joanie

You need to scroll left for the link once your there.
Excellent video and I have seen and read many articles about the thai cabaret
it is just amazing how beautiful they are. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Humm, the site says the video is no longer available.. bummer.

Well, I went back and tried with I.E. instead of Firefox.. it loaded right up.

[Lawren]

It's still there but I had to try three times to get it.

Hi everyone. It seems I'm having trouble getting us a direct link, so when this page comes up, you'll see the Transexual Cabaret down and to the right. Click on that video. Sorry to have made it so hard :(

Although I have never gone to Thailand I have heard about this phenomenon for many years. Thailand is also an area where SRS is done less expensively.

These lady boys participate in social endeavors also like league activities in sports and such. It seems rather uncontroversial there much less more so that here.

BTW I had to change to IE before I could see it also.

Wow that's an interesting video i wish it was better in the states for cders to be out in public.

Why can't anything be standardized?
Is there an MPG available for this?
Where can I find it?
You know... I sometimes create programs for people that I know... It doesn't matter what version of windows that they have. It works.

Cultural norms differ the world over, but they also can change. This is something like what we would like in the west. If the general populace could see us as different, yes, but in a good way!

Thanks for the link suchacutie!

Hi Tina,

I'm getting the cave video too, and no way to scroll to the left, no link to the video that you mentioned either.

I found this on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FyybJ-vSsg

Is that the same video?

This is a different video, but fascinating as well.

They looked like real GG's. I was surprised. I got the cave thing too but down under the one that came up there are more listed to choose from on the Right hand side under the little screen are other choices such as Criminal families and knife dancing I clicked on the Transexual Cabaret and waaaa la
The make-up was fabulous but they have great skin anyway. :rolleyes:
One thing I have learned since I have got older is how good your make-up looks depends on a great skin care system. In my younger days I never thought about moisturizing and such but lately it's a must. I don't have any wrinkles yet so let's try and hold em off as long as I can.:love:

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing it.

Finally got to the video. Part of the problem initially was that I use Netscape, and it didn't like that, but went to Internet Explorer and it eventually worked.

They look very nice, but I'm used to seeing impersonators of that quality at the Baton, a club I used to hang out at in Chicago, but thanks for that link, very interesting, the cultural stuff was great.

Carol:hugs:

[sterling12]

Ok, I got it too! Been out dancing for a few hours and had not had a chance to get back to this.

I thought it was a direct link, just assumed that it would be the correct video.

I shall endeavor to do better in the future. But, it did start a lively discussion...non? So I guess I wasn't the only one who got confused.


Peace and Love, Joanie

Carol:hugs:

I was listening to that one and thinking "Wow her voice sounds like a GG, not an M2F!" Then I realized it was dubbed over :(

I noticed lots of Thai kathoeys look really attractive but sound definitely male.

[GinaVegas]

Interesting video.....
