Title: Why do Thai trans women look more feminine?
Post by: nikkxo on September 18, 2016, 03:53:29 PM
I don't mean any disrespect by this topic. I apologize in advance if it comes off the wrong way but whenever I see pictures/videos of Thai transwomen for some reason they just look more feminine and "passable", and sometimes you wouldn't even be able to tell if it wasn't their voice. I know it's all subjective and I'm definitely not saying other races/ethnicities cannot be passable as well.

Is it their HRT regimen that gives them softer looking skin, more feminine features, etc? Does anyone know what the difference in HRT in Thailand than in the US is?

It has nothing to do with it.  Have you even seen such Asian men?  There is not that much difference between man and woman in that race, whereas, the gender difference in whites is HUGE, I mean as in 40ZZZZZZZZ and flat-chested.

I'm gifted with a lighter body - smaller shoulders, hands, throat, etc.  Linebackers are fairly common in white men.  How many do you see get to be that form among the Asian men?

Most Thai people I know are not 6'4" mastodons. Even the men are petite by comparison to us anglos..

They also start quite a bit earlier in life than many of the people in the US.  That's 90% of it right there

You don't need a prescription for HRT in Thailand, so kids can and do start very early. Pre-puberty early.

Apparently locals can recognize them. I've no idea how.

The prettiest ones I've seen are Filipinos but the real pretty ones you'll never really see/know because they really blend in and live stealth lives.... I guess it's in their genetic make up... They are petite, less hairy, less angular and they start young.... I think the Asians are really pretty and passable but when a caucasian or latina girl gets it right or start early they can be drop dead gorgeous to the level of a victoria secret angel....

I am not quite sure, but there are a huge variability among individuals. You see the selected, and selected m2f transgender people in Thailand. Simply, the population of m2f there is relatively greater than other countries, and more passable and more feminine m2f transgender show up. You do not see the remaining, major m2f transgeder people there who are hidden, or reluctant to show themselves.

Of course, when I was in the U.S., most Caucasian women have far more facial hairs than me, but my little daughter also has more hairs in her arms and legs than me (I hope those hairs will disappear as she grows).

Like Thailand, in my country, the major work place of m2f transgender is night bar, and the external beauty is critical for earning money. They undergoes repeated FFS. Otherwise, you can not work at bars. For this reason, m2f transgender ladies in those bar are more feminine and more beautiful than most ordinary women, according to a few of my friends who once visited there. Nevertheless, I heard that there are many ordinary-looking m2f transgender, too.
