Ladyboys is an intriguing and, at times, emotional programme that travels to Thailand to explore the world of male-to-female transgender persons.

KL, thanks for the post!

Unfortunately I don't get Sky in the Arabian Gulf. Hopefully it won't be too sensationalist like many other programs are on this subject.

I cannot figure out how to embed, but the first episode can be found here:

Note that this first episode was broadcast on Sky a couple of years ago, and was so successful they decided to produce 4 more episodes, which will be airing for the first time beginning later this month.

The producers had originally tapped a complete wanker that was found on Pattaya Ladyboys to be featured, talking about his interest in LB's. They were going to follow him around Pattaya. Then it turned out the guy was revealed on the forum to be a complete and utter head case, and the producers were contacted by members BEGGING them not to let this idiot stand in as an example of the prototypical LB lover. Long story short, the producers instead tapped two other well-known forum members (Solice and Cheyenne) who were both involved in long-term relationships with Ladyboys that are not currently involved in the P4P scene. One of the girls is probably known to many BM's, former EZY Angel Paeng. She's been off the scene in a LT relationship with Solice for at least 2+ years now and doing great.

Look for them to feature prominently in one episode, and then more sporadically in the rest.

DT, thanks for posting the video links! I am not sure if Vimeo can be embedded with this forum software, but I'll check.

I do remember watching episode 1, which someone had ripped. Will be looking forward to seeing the rest!

Thanks for posting the links. Very interesting stuff, and pretty good reporting compared to what I've seen before.

Good news, someone has posted the first new episode on Youtube - thanks to anthony70 for posting this up on another forum. Try to watch this soon, in case the original broadcaster complains about copyright.

That was quite interesting, although no sign of the usual suspects just yet.

Angel Paeng when she was a young little thing....

It was very good. Nicely reported and reasonably balanced. Crazy that they can marry & have gender reassignment status here . Yet in their own country they have no rights.

Looking forward to next weeks & seeing if I can spot any of our superstars.

It is just another bit of media raising the profile of the whole transgender world. Well done sky.

I think Paeng, Solice, Cheyenne and his GF won't be strongly featuree until episode 3 or 4.

I would say this is one of the most unbiased and factual documentaries of the Thai lb scene made so far. I can only hope that the same holds true for the next 5 episodes as it has for the first one.

I would highly recommend that anyone interested in lbs, especially Thai, watch these episodes to get realistic insight in their lives.
