Thailand & Transsexuality

Wikipedia states that transsexuality is most prevalent in Thailand than in any other country in the world - a statement that not only confirms my past experiences there, but also forces me to clarify my own understanding of transsexuality in Thailand. Because I'll admit, I'm never really prepared when someone responds to my "I'm from Thailand" factoid with, "Did you know that Thailand is known for its quality, lower-cost sex reassignment surgery?" Um..yes I did, thanks. I mean, I've come to expect the usual reaction - "I LOVE Thai food, omgz aslkgja;wlkrjga!" - so my discomfort probably comes from lack of information on the topic.
