Being a transgender in Thailand for me is so easy. Mostly I can do what I want and I can be what I want to be too.
One major exception is that I cannot legally change my gender to female, and that means I am not legally able to be married.
So far it’s not really a big problem for my life here, but it’s something I hope the government will change. I do have one memorable bad experience relating to me being a transgender...
Four years ago I wanted to have a full-time job and I researched many companies. There was a company that asked me to interview.
I went to the interview but when I got there they told me that they won’t accept any transgenders for work because they were afraid that some of their customers will think that they have unprofessional staff members.
That hurt me quite a lot and was definitely a bad experience.

I wish more girls out there would be more proud about the way they look and don't let anyone take the confidence away.
To many people have body issues mainly because of how others make them feel.
I say we are all beautiful and unique.
Beauty comes from within and it comes out if you know how to let it.

We have to think that we have in us all the dreams of the world.
May these dreams, if we fight, can become reality, because this world is full of endless possibilities.
And although these possibilities may surprise you, if you do not give up, they can lead you to what you so desire.
We have to believe that we can be whatever we want, so let's fight for it, of course with training, workshop, and training, but we can do it!
Believe in yourself.
