I just want to put a little perspective on it: Ladyboys lure is their complete uniqueness. In the west we get big dodgy trannies, here in Thailand you can get petite women who just happen to have been unfortunate to have been born with the wrong bits. There is a wide range from the legitimate ladyboys that are truly a second type women that try to merely get by in mainstream society, to transvestites who camp it up and exploate the commercial aspect of the ladyboy mystique. For all the commentaries on how open Thailand is, it seems a national sport to spot the ladyboys and announce that you do so. I find that degrading and insulting to the integrity of some of these girls. Of course there are those who completely want to be known, but I reckon the real ones do not want to be noticed and this whole "spot the tranny" attitude of farangs and thais alike is a demeaning attitude that makes light of some other human beings personal tragedy and turns a person into a spectacle for your amusement.
As for those who like and those who do not like the lb scene, I will just also say, there is a saying about those in glass houses casting the first stone, and I think if you are on the p4p scene you really are in no position to judge someone elses taste, we all have preferences and it should be left at that. This up the pooper, and sets of balls attitude really is uncalled for, we know you do not like it, that suffices!
