Hmm people giving a lot of opinions about what the trans women if Thailand are allowed to call themselves. Do I listen to
A: Transgender women from outside of Thailand who say the thai women are being orientatalist
B: Transgender women from Thailand who call their identities politically complex but legitimate
If someone is willing to flat out say "no the thai trans women are wrong and shouldn't be listened to about their own country" I will give you the time of day, otherwise what value do you possibly bring to this conversation
#if you link me to the Talia Bhatts article I've already read that dosent mention what I'm talking about once#or her reply on that one post#that hems and haws for several paragraphs before saying#“yes many trans women in thailand identify with this term but some of them dont!”#i'm going to lose my mind
