Where Dating Apps Save Lives
There is a perception that Thailand is kind of like this queer paradise. People have a sense that there is this longstanding culture around trans femininity. The reality is that, much like everywhere in the world, there's still a lot of transphobia there and there's still a lot of homophobia. Even though there are reasonably good laws for protecting trans women, they're still often pushed into very limited career opportunities, and they still may face extreme family rejection. I think it's hard to overestimate homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia all across the world.
