Date a Ladyboy... Ruin Your Reputation?

There are many issues involved with dating a ladyboy. One thing worth considering is your REPUTATION.

Bear in mind that many parts of the world and many people are still very conservative. And depending on your job and own personal background, you could be in for a load of trouble if you admit to an interest in ladyboys.

So you might need to be extremely careful who you tell about your interest in ladyboys.

I'll point out at this point that ladyboys are VERY popular. Stickman Bangkok once revealed that about 40% of "short time" escort sessions in Nana Plaza were guys going with ladyboys. When I sat a beer bar in the Plaza people watched for a couple of hours, I pretty much confirmed this figure to be absolutely spot on. Think of how much ladyboy porn there is out there, and how popular that is. So without a shadow of a doubt, ladyboys are wildly popular. However, few ladyboy admirers will be open about it.

I feel especially sorry for you if you're an American guy. Your fellow countrymen seem the least tolerant about ladyboys. If you're European though, then you're in better company. In many European countries you can even legally marry your ladyboy girlfriend.

If you're a single guy travelling to the far East, then there can be reputational issues involved,
and many people may automatically label you as a "sex tourist".

Still, there's no getting away from it...

If you're really, seriously interested in medium-long term relationships with ladyboys, then you're better off moving to Thailand, the Philippines, or maybe even Malaysia.

Have you had reputational issues arise due to your interest in ladyboys? If you've travelled alone to Thailand or the Philippines do your colleagues or family think you're a sex tourist? Leave your comments below (anonymously if you so wish).
