Notice her kindness and dignity; she doesn't want to say anything bad about her father even after all the things he did, and doesn't resent the kids who bullied her. Now notice the transphobic people in the comments and how rude and terrible they are to her for just being who she is. I think it says a lot. Just something to think about :)
Susie X Your attitude and made-up facts, gross me out. Even if your ‘facts’ were right, less than 1% of the US population is 330m x .01= somewhere just under 3.3 million human beings in the US alone. Of the world population that’s (1% of 7bn=) 70 million. If it were possible to decide or convert to being gay there would be a lot of gay men who “choose to” because they hate or don’t get along with women, and vice-versa. On the other hand, DNA is basically irrelevant to gender where chromosomes are determinant. Finally, as you don’t understand what’s in another persons heart or head, you don’t get to judge or infringe on their pursuit of happiness. Stop making up conspiracies to answer your intellectual laziness.
I notice how the comments section talks about her being pretty, hardworking and feminine therefore she deserves respect. Absolutely. But respect shouldn't be based on anything else other than humanity. Some transgender people will not look pretty(assuming woman like?)or even have an opportunity to work hard or even be feminine. They too deserve respect. Everyone deserves respect.
I'm Thai. From my experience, eventhough the transgenders, gays or ladyboys are not pretty, but they still receive a respectful from other people if they do a good thing. I have many gay friends. Most of them have a good job, be doctors or teachers. If they have ability so they have opportunity.
@@arpakai9243 I am half Thai but I was raised in Thai culture. Many Thais do not care how you look or if you are gay, lesbians etc. They pay attention to how you are as a person. As long as you are a good person they won't judge.
Isn't respect earned? A decent person is respected because they are descent and respectable, when they do something that despicable, like murder, rape or paedophilia, do they deserve the same respect as respectable people who just want to live their lives without hurting anybody'
She changed my views on ladyboys. She's true class. What she said about people who bullied her, "I knew that if I was going to be like this.. I had to be kind. So they can't look down on me"
Trans woman are women but like any skill you can get better at guesstimating trans people by visual inspection when you know what to look for. Yes, there are trans people that are unclockable and there are folks that seem trans but are not. That said, the point still holds. My wife is a trans woman and I play this game all the time with her and unknown others.
From our research, the term "ladyboy" is a popular term used to describe transgender women in Thailand. Here at Asian Boss, we strive to provide the most authentic insight from Asia and in doing so, won't impose Western ideals of political correctness on terms that many locals, including our interviewee, don't find offensive.
It's a very vocal minority that actually cares about political correctness, the ones who send complaints and try to get your socially punished, the vast majority of people don't agree. Don't worry about it.
thank you for saying this. i knew it was a matter of time before some westerner was going to inject their verbiage into this presentation and call ladyboy a misgendering term
I complained about it in the last video but I did say that I wasn't pointing fingers because I know it's just a language issue, and languages can differ of course. If thai transgender people feel comfortable with the thai term for ladyboy, or the english term, then it's completely okay to use it and even more so for accuracy in the representation of the interview. As a person who loved languages, I understand that some term that is offensive on the west can be non-offensive in other parts of the world, so yeah. But I still think it's important to note that it is like that, just to clarify that you guys (Asian Boss channel) aren't just being rude and going by international standards (since subs are in english and it can be confusing) calling people offensive terms, but instead just using the most accurate translation without leaving the authenticity behind.
"It's not like I wanted to be one, I was already one." Right on. The family is the basic social unit of society; an open family creates a generally open, respectful, accepting society (but damn, kids can be crude with the bullying). Thank you for candidly sharing your experience. Bravo Asian Boss! This was a really good one.

@@jasonjanoyblahaloverboy3005 you're not born as a gender. that's called sex. gender is just a social construct identifying certain behaviors and characteristics associated with each sex.
When she said "I met more men that respect me now" (after the surgery) I teared up, everybody deserves to be treated with respect no matter what, not only when you meet certain 'requirements'. Poor lady, that shows how much she has been through
Damn she’s so knowledgeable and calm. You can tell she’s worked her whole life working hard, I mean just look at her businesses !!!! I wish you the best and SO MUCH SUCCESS. What a queen
@@lilyyang9380 very simple, a male (with xy chromosomes) is a he. Gender is merely grammar to describe the biological sex in language. Surgery and faking behavior isn't gonna change facts. A mouse is a mouse and will never be a lion. There are other people you could "wow" for instead. For instance Nicolas Tesla for his inventions.
TrangDB9 in Thai, it’s extremely super common to use the word ‘she’ (it’s นาง in Thai) for everything. Even you’re a straight, gay, or anything like mobile phone, cats, dogs, river, mountain, atmosphere, and everything, you can call it all ‘She’.(some Thai also say the word she in English even they’re speak Thai) I don’t know much about another culture but in Thai, it’s very rude to fix the word from he to she like you did. We have a freedom of speech to spread the positive mind, but it’s not freedom anymore if it could make anyone get offended.
TrangDB9 Thai live and flow with the feeling, not a strict with a things you said. Maybe that’s a part that could reflect from Thai culture that we care, being generous and kindness as much as possible, and try as much as possible to avoid to hurt anyone feeling. (It’s call เกรงใจ in Thai, this word is not even exist in English, so I’m not surprise if you don’t get it.)
I wish I had a super smart reply to counter these negative comments about delusions! But I don’t have one. What I can say is that as a human being I need to accept her way of life and her choices. She’s not hurting anyone, she ain’t trying to force her views on us. She’s just trying to live her life, just like you all living yours. I hope you guys find peace.
I grew up in Thailand and I had a couple of friends who were "ladyboys", and honestly, once you meet them in person, they're like hella cool to hang out with. Their unique perspective were always very interesting, and talkinh with them helped me a lot because they have a mentality of a girl but they're boys biologically, so they gave me so much knowledge in terms of how girls feel in certain situations and I felt comfortable talking to them unlike when I'm talking to girls. (Yes, I'm a socially awkward kid who gets nervous in front of girls). Afterall, we're all humans. We make different choices, and there's no need to insult someone's choice if they haven't insulted yours.
@@apointingsoyjak2302 indeed, it became more and more forgiving to not give a damn about how others will feel. This is what no other generations have experienced before, and I'm kinda glad I'm born in this generation, because I can appreciate having respect to each other, both on internet and real world.
@@jokerbaswedan7297 he told me that he's a pitcher (if you know what I mean) and have experienced those things several times, but I never asked him to be involved in that kind of relationship, because no offense, but I still prefer to be in that kind of relationship with actual female.
@@_Wai_Wai_ I'm not sure, but I guess it's because people there are really open minded about the idea of being (or becoming) transsexual, so they can express themselves easier compared to other countries. I'm not saying that transsexuals don't get hate or get bullied in Thailand, but I think they have a feeling that they are not alone and it's okay to be that way.
She is very beautiful and seems really sweet. I’m glad she lives in a country that is more accepting of transgender people. Some of these comments are horrible, stop calling her an “it”, she is a human being whether you disagree with her or not. Just listen to her story instead of blindly hating and try to understand her point of view.
The interviews are always my favorite videos. Always get to see a very human side of people that one might not get the chance to meet or interact with at that level.
Marie: You are one of the best interviewers I have seen. It seems simple but you ask good questions. Then you let the person answer the question without interrupting. This is very rare among today's media. Great Job. Sauce, is a well spoken, intelligent woman with a great line of dresses. This is the 1st time I had heard a ladyboy speak so clear and honest about the whole procedure and the aftercare. Very beneficial to people who think this would be easy. Happy Trails
That's what journalism is about, you ask questions without hidden agenda, let the interviewee speak his/her points from their perspective without trying to frame them or twist their meanings. Sadly, such professionalism are lost in the mainstream media, especially when it comes to politics.
Not just media but I notice this in everyday folks too. One of my top pet peeves about ppl is when they interrupt me. But I know I can be impatient at times. Bc really, I'll just be thinking wow, it's like you're having a convo w/ yourself... & I wanna cut sh off mid sentence. Like bye! Walk away, hang up, etc. But I'll force some patience... But just be irritated too. Listening...a lot of Ppl lack in the listening & the absorbing dpt
By far one of the best interviews I heard. It’s rare that interviews are this genuine or answer my questions. Credit to the interviewee too. She got off some stuff off her chest with all honesty in the most graceful manner.
I think the interviewer should have informed herself about the topic to have at least a little bit of basic information about the topic, maybe it‘s just me
This is actually really informative. The interview was done in a very respectful manner as well. Props to the interviewer and thank you to the interviewee
All I can say is: If you're not hurting anyone, live your life the way you please and love whoever you please. It's nobody else's business. Live and let live.
@@tazboy1934 Why and how? I agree with triky5384 on "If you're not hurting anyone, live your life the way you please and love whoever you please. It's nobody else's business. Live and let live.", but I would like to know how you´re justify your opinion on this topic.
@@CoolReptiles70 "Live and let live" is a phrase I used because that's what I believe is the only way to achieve real peace. Imagine if you had to live to please or according to the standard of others or otherwise feel their hatred? Why does anyone has to hate on others for the way they choose to live their lives? It's madness. If we would apply hate to everything we don't think is ok to our point of view or our likes, we might as well destroy everything and everyone.

There's nothing to worship here. Of course we need men. Men provide security and guidance. A woman is made to be a woman and occupy that rule and same with men. Women needing to step up to act like a man is not an easy or satisfying thing but sadly a necessity!
Yasss whatever gender it is, for the right reasons, you can raise someone by your own. It takes two to create life, but it only takes a one good heart to nurture another good one. 💕
i got disowned by family and shunned by my friends because i was in relationship with a trans thai women, and honestly, i ignored all the disgusted looks and comments, and we have been happily married for 5 years, and honestly if i could go back in time, i wouldnt change a single thing, my life is perfect, our lives are happy, and our marriage is great
This is my story as well. Well my friends were fine, only family. Eventually my mother came around after my father died. I wouldn’t change a thing either. I’ve never had a better relationship. Thai trans girls are amazing. We’ve been together 19 years at this point.
@@nummy662 my family forgot one thing, our family is known for our pride in our stubbornness and they forgot i was there son and part of that stubborn family, our 350 year old family motto is "we live by our word, and so we shall die by it" when i fell in love and promised to always be there for her, i swore it on our family motto, my family rejected me for that. well most of them, my younger sister recently moved in with me and my wife, she always had my back small note, our family upholds our old traditions and customs, such as how we speak to each other, belief structures and other such things, to swear a promise on the family motto is the highest respect we give to people we care about. since im the last male heir to the family since my father passed away last year, even though they disowned me, im technically the head of the family edit: my wife considers it rather romantic when i said my family motto as part of our vows, after saying i do, i said "vivimus verbo nostro et moriemur in illo" which is the latin for our motto

Congratulations to the interviewer, Marie-Christine, for this honest, intelligent interview donne with sensibility and respect - really a breath of fresh air. Bravo!
Thailand has never had a coloniser with a prejudiced religion nor been ruled by communists with oppressive agenda. Their people can do what they like without being judged by broader society. We should be happy that these ladyboys can live the lives they want!
Yes this is true,When British was on their way in North Thailand at that time which was different Kingdom,The King of Thailand went quickly to offer a hand of married to tbe crown princess and married and became what is now THAILAND and british people didnt do Autrocities they did in India... And when japan came knocking on their door with Big ships witb full of soldier,the King opened the door and Japanese left them alone to conduct their business untill 1945 Clever they were
@@yogadgsix But no one asked for your opinion. Why are you butting in? NO ONE CARES IF YOUR PREFERENCE IS FEMININE OR MASCULINE. just mind your own business.
But even if you could tell she is trans, it doesn't matter. Sayin someone doesn't look trans isn't a compliment. We should show respect to the person, their courage and journey, not to the label we force onto everybody, like gender or sex.
First of all, I want to say that I'm so happy she had family support for the most part. This goes to show how transgender people can live happily as long as their communities are supportive and especially families, so we all need to start to treat others with compassion no matter how different they are. How great would the world be if we were more considerate to one another despite our differences? Aside from that, it's great to see that she's a successful young woman despite being trans. Trans people often times rely on jobs that they don't want just because there's not really a place in society where they can actually work and be valued as human beings sometimes, so they end up working as whatever they can get. But yeah, it looks like she's pretty well off with his business and I'm very happy for her. I just hope this helps to open people's minds and also to show that transgender people are not the issue, the issue is that the society isn't used to them, but if they just open their hearts and let them in then they will be indeed happy people that can be a positive influence in everyone's life.
Some people have more experience talking with trans women so they can conjecture more accurately that an unknown someone may be trans. Voice training is difficult.
@@Jsarmy87124 You have too much time on your hand to just comment hate under every positive tweet. What a sad life you have wasting all your time making others feel bad.

@@BlueCoolOla Let's be real tho. In a lot of case you can tell transwomen apart because they still look like men on the outside. So it's a way to say the physical transformation was a success.
@@BlueCoolOla But, that's the ultimate goal, no? Male-to-females looking like they were always a female as opposed to a guy with awkwardly bolted on feminine features?
I like her she seems genuine and humble. When I was in 10th grade I was a victim of bullying. There was this gay in my class who always picked on me because I was an outcast I was a transferee at that school. He's extrovert so he has many friends and his friends bullied me as well it was really hard for me that sometimes I don't want to eat at the cafeteria because I'm afraid I might meet them along the hallway. That experience made me bitter to gays in general but this interview enlightened me that not all gays are the same. Just what she said that people should look at the inside first and then judge them based on their actions. Gays, transgenders, or straight ,we should all be more understanding and kind to anyone because we may don't how hard life was for them
I 100% agree with you my friend! Sorry about the bullying you experienced. No one should have to deal with that! Here in The U.S. there has been a push to educate people about this problem. @ least it's a start!
Ever since I’ve subscribed to this channel, I’ve learned so much about truly amazing people. Same professionalism as always during the interviews. I might recommend this channel to some friends.
It is a really sad truth about Thailand (the perception), but the reality is that a lot of Thais are just some of the most down to earth and kindest people you will ever meet. I am so glad that this Country is my home.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj That's in any culture, society, or Country. My experience has been a bit better than that, but your experience does not surprise me.
@@jehielhernandez8152 You know that male pattern baldness is caused by dihydrotestosterone, right? This is how all treatments for androgenic alopecia work. Disrupting this mechanism.

As a Thai, I feel great that she including LGBT community was born and raise in Thailand. Some comment made me sad on how you insulted other just the way she is. Thank you Asian Boss for Public incredible content.
It’s sad that now a days humans have sick mentality.. Ms. Sauce is so so beautiful and well composed. She is humble seems honest and deserves all the respect in the world. If I was to be asked I would have love to be hers for life time... much love and regards from India 🙏🙏🙏🙏more power to you lady
I am Chinese, and used to live in Bankok briefly. I would say Thai people are very nice and polite. The politeness and kindness of Thai people is different from that of the Japanese. It is a whole package inside and outside. It is genuine. You don't feel distant even if they are ridiculously polite.
I'm in love with this girls! The interviwer and the interviwed were so perfect and calm,this video may be the best one about transgenders that I have ever seen💛
I saw transwoman working at cosmetic representative at a mall. I think we all need to look up to Thailand when talking about LGBTQ. They are ao open and accepting of it.
When people think of a place in Bangkok where the can see many transwomen, most would say red light districts. But for me as a local Bangkokian who hardly expose myself in red light district,0 I would say cosmetic section in shopping malls. :)
You're right. Many transwomen here work in a cosmetics business and they always give a beautifully professional make up look! I'm a Thai transgender and I'm also a teacher. I also have a friend who is a trans like me and she works as an interior designer. I'm happy to say that luckily we met the organizations that accept us and let us show our abilities, not just look into only our sexual orientation.
What a lovely person. She is such a kind, considerate and thoughtful girl. I feel badly that she had to go through all that she did but I’m so proud of her being the person she has become. I hope she is still doing well and enjoying her life.
Wow, even the pictures of her as a child, she didn't look like a boy, she's definitely a perfect example of being born with your true gender identity even if it's not physical.
I really feel this video changed my whole conception on transgender. It was a great interview. It is interesting how Asia and especially Thailand has a different side and perhaps better approach than rest of the world to transgender. My respect, admiration and kindness to all the community.
You owe it to yourself to talk with a ladyboy or two. They have a very unique take on gender and meaning and you’ll discover, as with the interview with Sauce here, that they live a very considered and thoughtful life. Careful though, you might get hooked. I ended up marrying a Thai trans girl, which was the smartest thing I’ve ever done.
@@exnihilo415 I'm sorry if I seem rude, but I'm curious about it. And if you don't mind answering this... Did your wife also have sex reassignment surgery? Can she also have the orgasm that women experience... Did she ever tell you? And do your family, friend & neighbor know and accept her for what she is... and don't think that you're weird for willing to marry a transgender? How do you convince them? I hope you both have a happy life like other married couples.
What a forgiving person :) she talks about her biological father and is so kind, despite the fact that he treated her and her mom badly. I wish her all the best with her studies and future. :)
He treated them badly?! The father was a victim of fraud - perpetrated by the mother-criminal (she took money under the guise of taking it to perform an abortion, never returned it, and didn't have an abortion [fraud]). Then, 22 he gets to know his son! Society should reproach the criminals, not the innocent and the victims of crimes!
This is the best interview on the subject of transgender women in Thailand I have ever seen, not only the interviewer but also the interviewee. It makes a change to meet an educated and articulate person rather than the typical stereotype bar girl sex worker , this young person had a supportive family who wanted the best for their child, I wish her all the happiness she rightly deserves
im from thailand and two of my cousins are trans. it’s honestly so heartwarming to see asianboss shedding light on the thai lgbtq+ community. my cousin got hit a lot for being trans, and i hope that she didn’t have to go through that anyways, she’s v pretty it makes me inseure lmao
What is the most interesting to me is it seems in Thailand they accept transgenders as a 3rd sex and not as a woman or man. I kind of like that concept. In the US lots of people tend to say straight up 100% the person is the gender they transferred to. But it's impossible when born as a sex biologically to get rid of all traces and be the other one. I don't know. I could be wrong. But I do want all transgender people to feel comfortable in their own skin and be accepted by society no matter why they feel like the opposite sex or why they are the way they are.
Transgender people in Thailand and elsewhere have a diversity of opinion on the topic. It surely doesn't help that in Thailand one can't legally change one's gender the way one can in much of the west. It surely doesn't help trans women identify as women when your own ID card betrays you.
@@exnihilo415 I think that not being able to change it legally is a problem. But I don't think their idea of thinking is completely wrong. When you take into account gender fluidity and all the different ways people feel, I think that transgender people are very diverse in how they feel about every aspect of their sexuality, sex, gender. I think it's something that's more fluid and there's no one answer or case. So I think the US's and Thailand's concepts are both right.
@@pandaonsteroids5154 My wife is a Thai trans woman. We live in the US now. She was very anxious and proud to change her ID and passport to be female in the US but still can't in Thailand. I know very few Thai trans women in the US that don't change their legal ID in the US when they have the opportunity to do so.
@@exnihilo415 In case you misunderstood I don't think that not being able to change your ID in Thailand is right, but looking at transgenders as a 3rd gender is not particulary wrong. Of course a transgender man is the most close to a man and should be identified if they wish it to be that way and vice versa. Glad your wife could do that though.
@@pandaonsteroids5154 There is also a long cultural history of a 3rd gender social role in South Asia and SE Asia going back centuries. Hijra in India. Hhwaja sira in Pakistan, etc. Europe and it's colonies didn't have this tradition so it's consequently less common although surely gender nonbinary people do exist, and these folks are asserting their identity as is their right to do so.
This was greatly educational, emotional and convinced me anyone who undergoes this complex, expensive and physically challenging surgery has undergone an enormous transformation. I wish this transgender person all the best in the future and compliament them on their determination, mental strength, and intelligence. What they have accomplished in the last 20 years is incredible. I admire them greatly. A excellent interview, the interviewer is a real professional. Please stay safe and good luck throughout this uncertain future.
I was raise in a Christian family which if they saw a person be a transgender they will say it’s a sin but since I was bullied verbally because i act like a boy since j was a kid i can understand these transgender people. I understand that all they want was to be themselves and be accepted by the community. To be honest i find that LGBTQ community inspired me way more than normal people. And also when people around me calling me names and tell me I’m weird, my gay friends who accepted me and tell me it’s okey to feel hurt because we are all human. And as a Christian I believe that God love them as much as God love other normal people. Because I believe only God knows what’s truly know about them. We humans can only assume and judge based on what we see and what we hear. Even we can understand them no one else can understand better than God. I know in Bible say about gay people are sinner but also in Bible say that no human knows what’s in God’s mind. And I’m not American, I’m Asian and from a country where transgender is forbidden. Sad to see this happen here. Btw I’m a married women who act like a dude and even my husband sometimes tease me by calling me Bro 😆
Timothy Han hello. I read in the bible and I don’t assume because I believe in what i read in the bible. I hope this answer your question. Thank you for responding to my comments 😊
This is most raw and honest video I've seen about this aspect of Thailand. I salute you for having the courage to make it and treating the subject with honesty and respect. Your interviewee strikes me as a very courageous and good person. She's merely trying to live her life the best she can. I sincerely wish her well.
Honest interview.. ths is my first time that i think transwoman is really humble, telling 100% truth. Her personality, we should respect her the way she is. This kind of vibe, will never neglected bcs it's positive.
Absolut beauty. She looks like so nice person. How someone can make bad judgment? I love Thailand and Thai people for the opening and respect to transgenders better than any country.
She is such a classy, elegant & stunning woman. Not only that, but she is such an inspirational woman! She is the definition of a boss. Having a cosmetics & fashion brand is not easy, so I give her props for that. And btw, I love her heart earrings.💕
I can feel the pain in her voice when she talks about her father. It is sad someone misses his child's childhood😢. Congrats for the interview done in a very professional and compassionate way, also congrats for her honest response 👏👏👏👏
Sauce just minding her own business and share her own experience about her life as a transgender in Thailand. I don’t know why some ppl get offended so easy just because she was born as a male and got a changing-sex job. I’m so fed up with the commenter who judge hers as a sinner to be ladyboy. She didn’t hurt anyone but you call her a sinner whereas you’re judging and insulting to others, who suppose to be a real sinner? Some ppl also claim her that she got a mental disorder or something delusional, I don’t see anything wrong with her, it’s her life, she can do whatever she want as long as it’s not illegal or harm for anyone. I think the one who always love to judge and look down on the others is actually the one who should be fixed.
What we take for granted, hw painful's it a transition to become the gender of one's heart... Looking at her, wouldn't hve guessed..she's so beautiful...
So genuine and beautiful; and also, the interviewer. This video makes you think of the person within and break away from the stereotype that misrepresents the truth.
Wow, I’m just Astonished at the power this individual has, how articulate taking the time to create a world that suites themselve. I love the way they showcase that this wasn’t a choice; but even if the surgeries didn’t happen they would still be the same person. I’m happy to see positivity and strength flow within you. I hope that others including myself can channel those attributes.
I don’t usually watch this type of documentary and I don’t know why TH-cam put this on my recommended documentaries to watch lol But I have to admit that even though I am absolutely not pro lgbt etc I am very impressed by this person and how honest the experience is being told.
Such an interesting interview 👏🏻 She’s very pretty and successful omg I love the fact that Thai people is more tolerant and the most important thing for them is to be free. Definitely I have to visit Thailand! 💕
Yes you must visit Thailand, i went there and absolutely will comeback. Great country, great people, great food. But please don't like other people who go to Thailand just for red district, Thailand is more than that.

Trans woman are women but like any skill you can get better at guesstimating trans people by visual inspection when you know what to look for. Yes, there are trans people that are unclockable and there are folks that seem trans but are not. That said, the point still holds.

@Thomas McGill it's a beauty standard in Asia esp. Korea. Some undergo plastic surgery just to get that
@@Jsarmy87124 and being a decent human being is all about respecting others and here you are
From our research, the term "ladyboy" is a popular term used to describe transgender women in Thailand. Here at Asian Boss, we strive to provide the most authentic insight from Asia and in doing so, won't impose Western ideals of political correctness on terms that many locals, including our interviewee, don't find offensive.
Good, it should be that way :). If it is not offensive then use the term, and vice versa.
It's a very vocal minority that actually cares about political correctness, the ones who send complaints and try to get your socially punished, the vast majority of people don't agree. Don't worry about it.
thank you for saying this. i knew it was a matter of time before some westerner was going to inject their verbiage into this presentation and call ladyboy a misgendering term
Don't let the vocal minority scare you off. Western ideals are not the end all be all.
I complained about it in the last video but I did say that I wasn't pointing fingers because I know it's just a language issue, and languages can differ of course. If thai transgender people feel comfortable with the thai term for ladyboy, or the english term, then it's completely okay to use it and even more so for accuracy in the representation of the interview. As a person who loved languages, I understand that some term that is offensive on the west can be non-offensive in other parts of the world, so yeah. But I still think it's important to note that it is like that, just to clarify that you guys (Asian Boss channel) aren't just being rude and going by international standards (since subs are in english and it can be confusing) calling people offensive terms, but instead just using the most accurate translation without leaving the authenticity behind.
"It's not like I wanted to be one, I was already one." Right on. The family is the basic social unit of society; an open family creates a generally open, respectful, accepting society (but damn, kids can be crude with the bullying). Thank you for candidly sharing your experience. Bravo Asian Boss! This was a really good one.

TrangDB9 in Thai, it’s extremely super common to use the word ‘she’ (it’s นาง in Thai) for everything. Even you’re a straight, gay, or anything like mobile phone, cats, dogs, river, mountain, atmosphere, and everything, you can call it all ‘She’.(some Thai also say the word she in English even they’re speak Thai) I don’t know much about another culture but in Thai, it’s very rude to fix the word from he to she like you did. We have a freedom of speech to spread the positive mind, but it’s not freedom anymore if it could make anyone get offended.
TrangDB9 Thai live and flow with the feeling, not a strict with a things you said. Maybe that’s a part that could reflect from Thai culture that we care, being generous and kindness as much as possible, and try as much as possible to avoid to hurt anyone feeling. (It’s call เกรงใจ in Thai, this word is not even exist in English, so I’m not surprise if you don’t get it.)

I grew up in Thailand and I had a couple of friends who were "ladyboys", and honestly, once you meet them in person, they're like hella cool to hang out with. Their unique perspective were always very interesting, and talkinh with them helped me a lot because they have a mentality of a girl but they're boys biologically, so they gave me so much knowledge in terms of how girls feel in certain situations and I felt comfortable talking to them unlike when I'm talking to girls.

Curious, why there appears to be more transsexuals in Thailand than anywhere else?
@@_Wai_Wai_ I'm not sure, but I guess it's because people there are really open minded about the idea of being (or becoming) transsexual, so they can express themselves easier compared to other countries. I'm not saying that transsexuals don't get hate or get bullied in Thailand, but I think they have a feeling that they are not alone and it's okay to be that way.
She is very beautiful and seems really sweet. I’m glad she lives in a country that is more accepting of transgender people. Some of these comments are horrible, stop calling her an “it”, she is a human being whether you disagree with her or not. Just listen to her story instead of blindly hating and try to understand her point of view.

The interviews are always my favorite videos. Always get to see a very human side of people that one might not get the chance to meet or interact with at that level.
"I didn't want to be transgender - I already was transgender." this is it ladies and gentlemen, that's the important point.
Marie: You are one of the best interviewers I have seen. It seems simple but you ask good questions. Then you let the person answer the question without interrupting. This is very rare among today's media. Great Job. Sauce, is a well spoken, intelligent woman with a great line of dresses. This is the 1st time I had heard a ladyboy speak so clear and honest about the whole procedure and the aftercare. Very beneficial to people who think this would be easy. Happy Trails
That's what journalism is about, you ask questions without hidden agenda, let the interviewee speak his/her points from their perspective without trying to frame them or twist their meanings. Sadly, such professionalism are lost in the mainstream media, especially when it comes to politics.
Not just media but I notice this in everyday folks too. One of my top pet peeves about ppl is when they interrupt me. But I know I can be impatient at times. Bc really, I'll just be thinking wow, it's like you're having a convo w/ yourself... & I wanna cut sh off mid sentence. Like bye! Walk away, hang up, etc. But I'll force some patience... But just be irritated too. Listening...a lot of Ppl lack in the listening & the absorbing dpt

@@kianchampion9581 *she stop being pathetic
First of all, I want to say that I'm so happy she had family support for the most part. This goes to show how transgender people can live happily as long as their communities are supportive and especially families, so we all need to start to treat others with compassion no matter how different they are. How great would the world be if we were more considerate to one another despite our differences?
Aside from that, it's great to see that she's a successful young woman despite being trans. Trans people often times rely on jobs that they don't want just because there's not really a place in society where they can actually work and be valued as human beings sometimes, so they end up working as whatever they can get. But yeah, it looks like she's pretty well off with his business and I'm very happy for her. I just hope this helps to open people's minds and also to show that transgender people are not the issue, the issue is that the society isn't used to them, but if they just open their hearts and let them in then they will be indeed happy people that can be a positive influence in everyone's life.

I like her she seems genuine and humble. When I was in 10th grade I was a victim of bullying. There was this gay in my class who always picked on me because I was an outcast I was a transferee at that school. He's extrovert so he has many friends and his friends bullied me as well it was really hard for me that sometimes I don't want to eat at the cafeteria because I'm afraid I might meet them along the hallway. That experience made me bitter to gays in general but this interview enlightened me that not all gays are the same. Just what she said that people should look at the inside first and then judge them based on their actions. Gays, transgenders, or straight ,we should all be more understanding and kind to anyone because we may don't how hard life was for them
I 100% agree with you my friend! Sorry about the bullying you experienced. No one should have to deal with that! Here in The U.S. there has been a push to educate people about this problem. @ least it's a start!

I really feel this video changed my whole conception on transgender. It was a great interview. It is interesting how Asia and especially Thailand has a different side and perhaps better approach than rest of the world to transgender. My respect, admiration and kindness to all the community.
You owe it to yourself to talk with a ladyboy or two. They have a very unique take on gender and meaning and you’ll discover, as with the interview with Sauce here, that they live a very considered and thoughtful life. Careful though, you might get hooked. I ended up marrying a Thai trans girl, which was the smartest thing I’ve ever done.
@@exnihilo415 I'm sorry if I seem rude, but I'm curious about it. And if you don't mind answering this... Did your wife also have sex reassignment surgery? Can she also have the orgasm that women experience... Did she ever tell you?
And do your family, friend & neighbor know and accept her for what she is... and don't think that you're weird for willing to marry a transgender? How do you convince them?
I hope you both have a happy life like other married couples.
What a forgiving person :) she talks about her biological father and is so kind, despite the fact that he treated her and her mom badly. I wish her all the best with her studies and future. :)
He treated them badly?!
The father was a victim of fraud - perpetrated by the mother-criminal (she took money under the guise of taking it to perform an abortion, never returned it, and didn't have an abortion [fraud]).
Then, 22 he gets to know his son!
Society should reproach the criminals, not the innocent and the victims of crimes!
This is the best interview on the subject of transgender women in Thailand I have ever seen, not only the interviewer but also the interviewee. It makes a change to meet an educated and articulate person rather than the typical stereotype bar girl sex worker , this young person had a supportive family who wanted the best for their child, I wish her all the happiness she rightly deserves
She seems very sweet and kind. I hope she will have perpetual merriment in her life. ❤
I love the language and accent. And the people there are so attractive.
yes thai japan korea r attractive ppl . asian best

What is the most interesting to me is it seems in Thailand they accept transgenders as a 3rd sex and not as a woman or man. I kind of like that concept. In the US lots of people tend to say straight up 100% the person is the gender they transferred to. But it's impossible when born as a sex biologically to get rid of all traces and be the other one. I don't know. I could be wrong. But I do want all transgender people to feel comfortable in their own skin and be accepted by society no matter why they feel like the opposite sex or why they are the way they are.
Transgender people in Thailand and elsewhere have a diversity of opinion on the topic. It surely doesn't help that in Thailand one can't legally change one's gender the way one can in much of the west. It surely doesn't help trans women identify as women when your own ID card betrays you.
@@exnihilo415 I think that not being able to change it legally is a problem. But I don't think their idea of thinking is completely wrong. When you take into account gender fluidity and all the different ways people feel, I think that transgender people are very diverse in how they feel about every aspect of their sexuality, sex, gender. I think it's something that's more fluid and there's no one answer or case. So I think the US's and Thailand's concepts are both right.
@@pandaonsteroids5154 My wife is a Thai trans woman. We live in the US now. She was very anxious and proud to change her ID and passport to be female in the US but still can't in Thailand. I know very few Thai trans women in the US that don't change their legal ID in the US when they have the opportunity to do so.
@@exnihilo415 In case you misunderstood I don't think that not being able to change your ID in Thailand is right, but looking at transgenders as a 3rd gender is not particulary wrong. Of course a transgender man is the most close to a man and should be identified if they wish it to be that way and vice versa. Glad your wife could do that though.
@@pandaonsteroids5154 There is also a long cultural history of a 3rd gender social role in South Asia and SE Asia going back centuries. Hijra in India. Hhwaja sira in Pakistan, etc. Europe and it's colonies didn't have this tradition so it's consequently less common although surely gender nonbinary people do exist, and these folks are asserting their identity as is their right to do so.
This was greatly educational, emotional and convinced me anyone who undergoes this complex, expensive and physically challenging surgery has undergone an enormous transformation. I wish this transgender person all the best in the future and compliament them on their determination, mental strength, and intelligence. What they have accomplished in the last 20 years is incredible. I admire them greatly. A excellent interview, the interviewer is a real professional. Please stay safe and good luck throughout this uncertain future.
Thank you to Asian Boss channel to professionally interview and allow others to understand more about trans women.
I was raise in a Christian family which if they saw a person be a transgender they will say it’s a sin but since I was bullied verbally because i act like a boy since j was a kid i can understand these transgender people. I understand that all they want was to be themselves and be accepted by the community. To be honest i find that LGBTQ community inspired me way more than normal people. And also when people around me calling me names and tell me I’m weird, my gay friends who accepted me and tell me it’s okey to feel hurt because we are all human. And as a Christian I believe that God love them as much as God love other normal people. Because I believe only God knows what’s truly know about them. We humans can only assume and judge based on what we see and what we hear. Even we can understand them no one else can understand better than God. I know in Bible say about gay people are sinner but also in Bible say that no human knows what’s in God’s mind.
And I’m not American, I’m Asian and from a country where transgender is forbidden. Sad to see this happen here. Btw I’m a married women who act like a dude and even my husband sometimes tease me by calling me Bro 😆
How would you know? Did he tell you Specifically?Or did you just assume it to be true? And Please Dont Quote the Bible. It was not written by him.
God doesnt exist.
Nice comment! 😊

Timothy Han hello. I read in the bible and I don’t assume because I believe in what i read in the bible. I hope this answer your question. Thank you for responding to my comments 😊
Such a calm, level-headed person even after going to through so much pain. I wish her the very best.
This is most raw and honest video I've seen about this aspect of Thailand. I salute you for having the courage to make it and treating the subject with honesty and respect.
Your interviewee strikes me as a very courageous and good person. She's merely trying to live her life the best she can. I sincerely wish her well.
her earrings are so cute omg i can’t stop looking at them lmao
I am 50% thai and 50% italian and this makes me proud ❤☺
KxS oddio anche io lol
How does that math work?
I am 50% Pakistani and 50% Chinese and this makes me proud too😎
Your mom is thai? 😕
KxS always be proud and humble...I’m sure you are wonderful on your own and don’t need other people or things to justify your innate sense of self :)
You can literally tell that she is not only beautiful on the outside but on the inside as well.
i'm honestly so surprised at how positive & encouraging the comments are, wow.
Same, Same!! It's Awesome, isn't it! ;)
Honest interview.. ths is my first time that i think transwoman is really humble, telling 100% truth. Her personality, we should respect her the way she is. This kind of vibe, will never neglected bcs it's positive.
I agree. Also the interviewer is polite and respectful when asking questions
I like her style. Sauce is very honest and has worked hard to become what she is today. This is definitely a personal success story.
Its not a compliment to say:
"yOu dOn'T lOoK TrAnS"
true
Depends what you are going for.
Thank you for writing this.
Lool. Hilarious. Some are so obviously men while others do well to hide that theyre men.
Oh OK, next time I'll say you still look like a man 👍 is that better?
Absolut beauty. She looks like so nice person. How someone can make bad judgment? I love Thailand and Thai people for the opening and respect to transgenders better than any country.
She is such a classy, elegant & stunning woman. Not only that, but she is such an inspirational woman! She is the definition of a boss. Having a cosmetics & fashion brand is not easy, so I give her props for that. And btw, I love her heart earrings.💕
I can feel the pain in her voice when she talks about her father. It is sad someone misses his child's childhood😢. Congrats for the interview done in a very professional and compassionate way, also congrats for her honest response 👏👏👏👏
Don't you mean " Him ".. It's a man in reality.... Just because a man can play dress up as a woman. Really doesn't make them a woman.
She is so pretty, she is hard working and strong in her choice. I love her personally. Keep up
Even when younger, she was beautiful still.
Yeh everyone is beautiful. Even the most "ugly" people.
Yerris you really hate trans people don’t you
Sauce just minding her own business and share her own experience about her life as a transgender in Thailand. I don’t know why some ppl get offended so easy just because she was born as a male and got a changing-sex job. I’m so fed up with the commenter who judge hers as a sinner to be ladyboy. She didn’t hurt anyone but you call her a sinner whereas you’re judging and insulting to others, who suppose to be a real sinner? Some ppl also claim her that she got a mental disorder or something delusional, I don’t see anything wrong with her, it’s her life, she can do whatever she want as long as it’s not illegal or harm for anyone. I think the one who always love to judge and look down on the others is actually the one who should be fixed.
She’s absolutely beautiful. I’m glad she has a decent job and doesn’t have to sell sex like many trans girls in Thailand.
You are beautiful (inside and out), and I wish you all of the best in life. Thank you for telling your story.
What we take for granted, hw painful's it a transition to become the gender of one's heart...
Looking at her, wouldn't hve guessed..she's so beautiful...
Sushi R. Thank you, have a nice day
Both the person conducting the interview, Marie, and Sauce, the transgender woman, were frank and honest. Interesting and well-done.
I don't understand how one can hate people who just want to live their truth, its not like they're hurting anybody.
So genuine and beautiful; and also, the interviewer. This video makes you think of the person within and break away from the stereotype that misrepresents the truth.
she's one of those women where you almost can't believe how pretty she is, and her personality is beautiful too. i'm very impressed by this interview
It’s so sad what she had to go through. She’s an amazing woman.
she is a transgender and not a woman she already accepted it why do you insist that she is a woman
@@n4gauge transgender isn't another gender, a trans women is a women, transgender is an adjective btw :)
Wow, I’m just Astonished at the power this individual has, how articulate taking the time to create a world that suites themselve. I love the way they showcase that this wasn’t a choice; but even if the surgeries didn’t happen they would still be the same person. I’m happy to see positivity and strength flow within you. I hope that others including myself can channel those attributes.
I don’t usually watch this type of documentary and I don’t know why TH-cam put this on my recommended documentaries to watch lol
But I have to admit that even though I am absolutely not pro lgbt etc I am very impressed by this person and how honest the experience is being told.
test
@Gins George As if this person cares about your opinion about it???
Such an interesting interview 👏🏻
She’s very pretty and successful omg
I love the fact that Thai people is more tolerant and the most important thing for them is to be free. Definitely I have to visit Thailand! 💕
In Thai, 'Thailand' means 'Land of the Free'
Yes you must visit Thailand, i went there and absolutely will comeback. Great country, great people, great food. But please don't like other people who go to Thailand just for red district, Thailand is more than that.
Hope you enjoy 🇹🇭❤️💓
Thailand welcome you always 🙏🏻
