Transsexuals and transgender men are a common sight in Thailand, appearing on soap operas and working at all levels of Bangkok society, from department store cosmetics counters and popular restaurants to corporate offices and red-light districts. A national transgender beauty pageant draws thousands to the beachside town of Pattaya every year.

Ed. Rushing in to the operation. You've got to be joking. I'd be rushing anywhere but in!!!. Cutting off my meat and two veg would need careful, very careful consideration. Yowzer. Reminds me of when my brother-in-law had the snip. He asked the doctor if it would hurt and the doctor reassured him that he wouldn't feel a thing. Well, he didn't feel a thing but the next day everything turned black with bruising and he could hardly walk. He had to walk with his feet 6ft apart to prevent rubbing. Laughed till I cried.
