Life for Muslim Ladyboys in Malayasia

[rxpharm]

This is an eye opening video that shows what life is like for Muslim ladyboys in Malayasia. This is a recent video and shows how difficult things are for them.

Excellent video worth watching. Muslims LB's not so hot. Thailand is still the best.

Most of the people like thai LB's, don't know why.

I am very surprised by what I saw in this video. I first checked the date when it was posted. It's been added on YouTube on the 9th of May this year but the tweet says it a documentary from 2016 ( https://twitter.com/UnreportedWorld/...55633720528898 ). Either 2016 or 2018, this is the same for me : the documentary was shot after I visited
Malaysia in November 2014. This is why I couldn't believe what I saw.


I tried to identify the location behind the people but could not be sure of anything. At the beginning, the van seemed to be closed to Bukit Bintang or at least on the hill where BB is but nothing is so sure. Then the scene with transgender street prostitutes looked like nothing I had seen. It could be Chowkit (Lorong Haji Tahib) but the area seemed to be really clean when the camera zoomed back.

I recognized the Blue Boy cabaret. I had checked this place in KL but had seen only male customers. I had been fed up to wait for the show, so I hadn't seen a ladyboy.

Sephira could have been a ladyboy I shot in Chowkit in 2014.



I was all the more surprised that I seen my first ladyboy only 12 hours after I had arrived at KL airport. She was working as an attendant at the KLCC central desk and she seemed to be well accepted.

I hadn't seen the religious police either. I must say I didn't look for them either. I had first found my housing in KL China Town to avoid troubles with muslims.



I had then met mainly foreign ladyboys or Malay ladyboys with Chinese origins (who are not muslims).





I had also read about ladyboys being arrested and sent to prison before 2012 and compelled to exhibit their breast to other prisoners to excite them and be humiliated. I believed this time was over. Maybe I am wrong. Maybe the truth is that ladyboys are supposed to be accepted but they are not allowed to have sex with men if they were born muslim. This fits with what some people explained me about Malaysian laws (even muslims from other Muslim countries sometimes don't understand).



I find it scary to realize that the hotel manager/employee called the police when she suspected a ladyboy to be having sex in a room. I had been in an hotel with a Vietnamese ladyboy. She told me she trusted the place and they even sold us condoms.

Always be careful and discrete in
Malaysia when mongering either GGs or ladyboys.

Here is a video posted in YouTube in June 2014. I wish I had seen so many ladyboys in Penang in November 2014, but it was pouring cats and dogs as during the rain season.
