I view the term ' Ladyboy ' as just another label, and franalexes is right in identifying it with sexual transmorphs ( complete or otherwise ) from South East Asia. It seems to be a label of convenience to distinguish them from other sexual transmorphs from elsewhere. On the internet ' Shemale ' or ' Tranny ' seems to be the general identifier, but this can be offensive to many genuine transgenders - others don't seem to mind. The Japanese use a completely different identifier - ' Newhalfs ', and some are absolute stunners.
I personally don't see ' Ladboy ' as a particularly offensive term.
Either way I find the whole subject fascinating, and, guess what, they reflect humankind completely - some beautiful, some fragile, some husky, and some downright ugly - but they're all going in the same sexual direction ( at least
I think they are ! ! )
