Transvestite Toilets - Only in Thailand

Transvestite toilets had been built for transvestite stidents in a rural school in Thailand. More than 200 of the boys who studies in The Kampang School in northeastern Thailand are self-confessed transgendered.

The new facility is very helpful for the students. Below the sign, showing part man in blue and part woman in red, says "Transvestite Toilet".

Vichai Sangsakul, one of the transgendered student, said that he was so happy about the toilet alloted for them.

Students in the said school do not have issues with transgendered but conceded they felt uneasy sharing toilets with them.

Thailand is one of the countries in the world who accepts transgendered people in their society.

I think this is so stupid. They have no problems with them in their society yet, they will segregate them by giving them their own toilet? What is that?

Thailand is a very liberated country that the government even encourages kids at a very young age to choose what gender they would be.

If someone wants to alter his genitalia through surgery, there is a hospital for them. It is cheaper than having it done in other countries.

Thailand even host beauty pageants for transgendered individuals.
