Thailand’s ladyboys are undoubtedly amongst the most beautiful on the planet. As society becomes more open-minded about transgenders, the demographic is enjoying real opportunities beyond low-level Pattaya showgirl gigs or unattainable “Tiffany-level” beauty queen status.

In a scene filmed in Thailand, Nick and Poy shared a lip-biting French kiss that lasted for more than ten seconds.

A modern international airport is an unlikely setting for a ghost story. Yet Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi airport is so over-run with ghosts that airport authorities have been forced to build special accommodation in an effort to placate the spirits and prevent them from interfering with operations.
A passenger injured in a Thai Airways crash at Suvarnabhumi airport claimed to have spotted a woman thought to be a cabin crew member in traditional outfit helping to evacuate people from the A330-300 aircraft, which veered off the runway on Sunday night after arriving from China.
Thai Airways said that none of their flight attendants wore a traditional Thai uniform that night. All of the flight attendants wore a short-sleeved shirt, which begs the question, who helped the passengers leave the stricken aircraft?
Chotisak Asapawiriya, the former CEO of Airports of Thailand (AOT), said that before Suvarnabhumi opened, a number of airport staff saw a woman in traditional costume and heard a mysterious woman’s voice on the eastern runway where the accident happened.
On 15th September the Managing Director of Thai Airways, Mr. Sorajak Kasemsuvan, announced that preliminary investigations suggested that “vengeful spirits” were involved in the accident, and that a ceremony of appeasement was urgently required. Mr Sorajak was publicly supported by other senior figures in the Thai aviation industry who agreed that Suvarnabhumi was haunted by large numbers of malevolent ghosts.
A former Airport Director noted that “We even had to build a condominium for the ghosts to reside, because the spirits are so many that individual spirit houses weren’t enough“.
Suvarnabhumi is built on an ill-omened piece of land 15 miles east of Bangkok and originally called, rather less appealingly, Cobra Swamp. The area was reputed to be haunted by many ghosts and spirits, including snake spirits, a woman in traditional Thai costume and Poo (Grandfather) Ming, an elderly ghost who is guardian of the local cemetery. Rumour has it that unscrupulous contractors failed to remove the bodies therein before beginning airport construction. Many deaths during construction were attributed to the influence of ghosts and a number of problems since the airport opened have been officially blamed on spirits (including an early breakdown of the baggage handling system).
If you pass through Suvarnabhumi airport, you probably won’t see any evidence of the supernatural – the spirit houses are located outside the main passenger areas.
Unless you are lucky enough to meet an elderly man with a glowing blue head or a woman in traditional Thai costume. Sightings of both are regularly reported.
It was fashionable in the 1970s for the humiliated Thai wife to wait until her unfaithful husband fell asleep so that she could quickly sever his penis with a kitchen knife.
A traditional Thai home is elevated on pilings and the windows are open to allow for ventilation. The area under the house is the home for the family pigs, chickens, and ducks. Thus, it is quite usual that an amputated penis is tossed out of an open window where it may be captured by a duck.
Hence, the Thai saying, “I better get home or the ducks will have something to eat,” is therefore a common joke and immediately understood among all Thai people.
Over the years, doctors have learned (over the course of over 18 reimplantations) how to improve the necessary surgical techniques.
Interestingly, the doctors remark at the very end that “none of our patients filed a criminal complaint against their attackers.”
An article called “Factors Associated with Penile Amputation in Thailand” in the journal NursingConnections, explores the reasons behind that by gathering data from 3 couples who had been part of the epidemic. The couples, by then divorced, discussed their experience calmly. It was reported that 3 things had happened during the week prior to the dismemberment:
1. An immediate financial crisis that adversely affected one of the children in the family
2. Ingestion of drugs or alcohol by the husband immediately before the event
3. Public humiliation of the wife owing to the presence of a second wife or “mia noi” within the week that preceded the incident.
In 2008, the Journal of Urology carried a retrospective by Drs Genoa Ferguson and Steven Brandes of the Washington University in St Louis, called The Epidemic of Penile Amputation in Thailand in the 1970s. Ferguson and Brandes conclude that:
“Women publicly encouraging and inciting other scorned women to commit this act worsened the epidemic. The vast majority of worldwide reports of penile replantation, to this day, are a result of what became a trendy form of retribution in a country in which fidelity is a strongly appreciated value.”
