Where are all the Chinese Ladyboys?

So I find myself back in China. God knows why. It's cold, polluted and compared to Thailand there's just nothing to do.

And to kick a man when he's down, dating in this part of China is really hard. Well if you're a foreigner that is.

4 months in and I've not had a single date. I've tried China Love Cupid but there aren't that many ladies on it from my city. We're quite near to Shanghai which ought to be a dating paradise. But Shanghai Princesses are in their own little bubble, and they're not interested in guys from the provinces.

I tried TanTan (a kind of Chinese Tinder clone) but it takes frigging ages to find anybody by flicking through 1000's of photos. Especially if you're doing it at Chinese wifi/4G speeds. Apparently I've had 42 matches which is pretty decent. But why can't it just show me who they are and stop all the time wasting?

I did make a bit of progress with one lady but she's working class, has a kid and no job. Yup, sounds great!

Another women insulted me with a "stupid foreigner" type of message.

Nice.

A cute Chinese ladyboy would really bring some much needed joy into my miserable existence...
Those long white legs would make a Chinese ladyboy an attractive proposition.
Even a biological lady would do. To find one of those I tried a Chinese local dating site called JiaYuan. Unless you know how to read some Chinese characters then this site is incredibly tough to use. Even when you can read Chinese it's still a hassle due to endless popup windows that are endemic to Chinese websites in general. And it's heavily geared towards the Chinese mindset, like asking you questions about the financial status of your parents!

As for whether there are ladyboys on the site, who knows. I guess not, at least not openly.

I've not tried real life cold approaching, but it's kind of hard when nobody speaks English and your Chinese is still pretty rubbish. Besides, that's not how geeks meet girls.

As for ladyboys in China - where the hell are they?

There ought to be a lot of ladyboys in China. I know there are plenty of gay dudes. So the balance of the gender preferences ought to be the same as in any other Asian country. Also China has another thing going for it - a vast population. One other factor to throw into the mix is that it's a lot more wealthy than Thailand or the Philippines. Maybe for that reason less guys feel the need to become transsexuals in the hope of meeting a rich guy. In fact China is home to huge numbers of rich ladies, so maybe guys are more into sugar mommy dating.

Anyway, enough rambling. I don't ever remember seeing any on China Love Cupid/Chinese Love Links. The Cupid sites aren't transgender friendly as you have to register as either a guy or a girl - even for Thai Cupid and Filipino Cupid.

I looked on MyLadyboyDate but there's only a grand total of 6 Chinese ladyboys.

LadyboyKisses isn't much better and I'm not on good terms with the owners of that one now.
With unemployment at 2% in my part of China, there ought to be plenty of opportunities for Chinese ladyboy office ladies to find work.
WeChat used to be good for random hookups. Here's my article about using WeChat in Thailand and Malaysia.

Unfortunately it's 4 years on since I wrote that post. WeChat's People Nearby function is a crock of shit now. Whenever you use it you soon get bombarded by unwelcome messages from hookers. It's about time they sorted this out. 4 years ago I met a couple of really great girls from the People Nearby thing. But all I've had this time around is spam.

I guess if you lived in a tier 1 Chinese city like Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou or Shenzhen then you might have more luck locating Chinese ladyboys.

But in a smaller Chinese city - forget it.

If you know how to find Chinese ladyboys then leave a comment below.

LadyboyKisses Let Me Down Again!


I'm an affiliate for LadyboyKisses. The guy hasn't paid me. Again.

Grrrrrrrr...

I don't really depend on the money, but it pays for my considerable web hosting costs.

Anyway, be careful when using LadyboyKisses because the owners are not reliable.

The good news is that the new ladyboy dating kid on the block - MyLadyboyDate - is really active now. There are over 13,000 ladyboys on the site.

You you don't need to use the ancient LadyboyKisses anymore.

Give MyLadyboyDate a try. I'm sure you'll be as impressed as I am. And I'm not just saying that because I'm an affiliate. The site's member photos are big, there's lots of choice and it's now my #1 recommendation for ladyboy online dating.

I know MyLadyboyDate is legit because I once met the owner in a London bar. We had a cider or two and talked about our love of ladyboys.

Happy dating!
