According to the news from Gridskipper, Thailand has a well-deserved reputation as a haven for ladyboys and the men who love them. The large number of transsexuals, also known as “katoeys,” in Thailand has fueled a boom in cheap quickie sex-change surgery clinics offering castrations in twenty minutes — or less — for around $125.
The reporter said Thai government sees these speedy procedures as a public health hazard, since they don’t require the extensive psychological evaluations that come with more formal gender reassignment therapy.
