Ladyboy of Thailand

There are many kathoy (‘lady boys’) in Thailand. Here is how to determine if that beautiful woman is actually a man:

1. Look for any of the following signs that may indicated the person is actually a male:
- Adam's apple. This is no longer full proof as many now remove their adam's apple surgically.
- Height (anything above 5.8 is a little suspicious).
- Modified facial features - usually men's faces are more angular.
- Too large feet.
- Too big shoulders.

2. Listen to the voice. Ladyboys speak softly to mask their deeper voice, compared to genetical girls.

3. Look at the way she/he walks. Swishy, flirtatious walking is a ladyboy "tell".

4. Check the shape of the wrist. Men's wrists are usually straight. Women's slant inwards toward the hand. Supposedly this is why it is more comfortable for women to wear bracelets.

5. Large bulge halfway between head and foot when facing the person.
