About this product

Product Information

A cultural history of the Kathoey (Ladyboys), their role in Thai society and a biographical account of three kathoey and their lives. It is an description of the kathoey as they were traditionally received in Asian and Buddhist society and the changes brought about by Western tourism to the area, specifically the sex industry that has developed in Thailand. An accessible and fascinating description of a wide range of subjects: including the Buddhist concept of karma and sexuality, the biological consequences of trans-gender (why were a Thai basketball team all ladyboys?) and a history of trans-gender in other cultures around the world. Are the Kathoey a deviation or a third sex?

Informative and well presented
This is more than the average Ladyboy book.The genuine information contained within is factual and well researched and offers a constructive insight as to how these young insecure people struggle to be accepted in a country which isn't always as understanding towards them as might at first be thought.I recommend this book to any person seeking an educated presentation.
