Nerdy Travel Tips - Ladyboys

The other night, I was chatting over Skype with my friend BT who is back home in Canada.  The subject of Thailand's infamous ladyboys came up, and he offered this advice for fellow nerdy travelers.

 

"I'll just use the guaranteed test.

 

I'll talk to them and they'll leave.

 

Test succeeded.

 

Girl."

I wouldn't want to find out the hard way ...

Hehehe...never tried this strategy! Does your friend have any suggestions for the pimps that roam the streets of Bangkok asking you if you're interested in a (presumably real) pretty lady...

@David no didn't try. I believe in the strategy though!

@Nick Same. Stakes are too high :)

@Aaron I think he's only nailed down the rejected-by-women-loophole strategy though, so I'm not sure there is a companion pimp-strategy.

Very funny. I have always found Thailand so interesting because as a woman I only see half of it. Although I did find the most attractive girls were really boys.
