There are approximately 640,000 transvestites in Thailand. They cannot do menial work, so what kind of work do they do to support themselves?

Today’s people travel during short vacations to release physical and mental stress, broaden their horizons, and leave precious memories. According to relevant research, China is the largest source of tourists in the world. It transports 200-300 million tourists to travel abroad and business trips every year, bringing huge economic benefits to many countries. Therefore, the influence of Chinese tourists overseas is not low. , many countries will introduce corresponding tourism measures to attract the attention of Chinese tourists. However, Chinese tourists are also very picky. Not every country will travel to them. To say that the most popular among them is probably this country in Southeast Asia.

Compared with other regions, Southeast Asia has always been the favorite place for Chinese tourists to visit. This region has many different countries, each with rich and splendid culture, and at the same time, it is close and prices are low. , so it is very popular among Chinese people. Among them, Thailand is the most popular. As for the country of Thailand, it is well known that it is the first country in the central Indochina Peninsula, formerly known as Siam. But few people know that it is a country that has a blood relationship with China. There are about 9 million local Chinese and overseas Chinese, accounting for 14% of the country’s population. Therefore, under the influence of cultural convergence, many Chinese prefer to come here. Come to this country with a similar culture and explore its wonders.

Thailand’s culture is also very exciting. Buddhist culture is prevalent, with pagodas and temples in the territory. It also pays great attention to traditional folk customs, mainly Chaoshan culture, so it is very popular among tourists from Fujian and Guangdong. But this is a contradictory country. Although the whole country believes in Buddhism, Thailand has a lot of popular culture that makes people feel unconservative. For example, this is the "transvestite culture".

Thailand transvestites are simply specialized Some men who are engaged in acting and have taken estrogen since childhood and developed feminized bodies are transgender. This is a popular group in Bangkok and Pattaya, Thailand. It is understood that due to the special social environment and reasons, Thai performance activities are very popular. Some poorer families will send their children to performance troupes in order to make a living. To please the audience, these children are given estrogen from an early age to become more feminine. This has consequences, because due to the disordered physiological functions, this type of group is unable to engage in menial work. Up to now, the number of Thai ladyboys, calculated based on 2% of the population, is about 640,000. Many people question, besides performing, what other talents do Thai ladyboys rely on to support themselves?

Many people probably don’t understand this problem. At this stage of the shutdown of Thailand’s tourism industry, Thai ladyboys have lost the opportunity to perform, and their lives have encountered difficulties. So what else can they do to support themselves? Regarding this question, I once asked a local friend, and he told me that more than 90% of Thai ladyboys are people engaged in the performance industry. But there are some exceptions. Just like movie stars. Because of the local people's contact with this profession, Thailand has many shemale actors or singers. Although they are not popular, they still have the opportunity to support themselves by doing side jobs.

As for the second makeup artist and or model, because this group is female-oriented, they all have excellent makeup skills. If they don’t want to perform, they can get a certificate and engage in these professions, especially Models are in demand locally.

The third one is students or teachers. Many of the Thai ladyboys are only 10-20 years old, so many of them are still children, so many of them are still reading, but There are also teachers. Because of the popularity of this profession, there are shemale training institutions in Thailand, where experienced people can become teachers. As for the last one, it is a profession in the gray field.

So it can be seen from this that there are actually no career options for shemales other than acting. Most of them are related to the entertainment industry and are tightly locked. So maybe people should put aside some prejudices against them and be more tolerant. After all, they are the really vulnerable groups.
