Major Religions in Turkey Sunni Islam - 65%. The word Sunni comes from Arabic word sunnah,... Other Islam - 13%. Those who are classified as "other Islam" do not identify with any... Irreligion - 7%. Agnostic or atheist Turks compose around 7% of the population. Spiritual but Not Religious - 6%. Similar to the aforementioned religious category,...

loll Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Ramasan is the Turkish pronunciation of Ramadan,the fasting month in the lunar calendar if Islam.Moslems have the habit of giving their male children the name of the lunar month they are born in,particularly Ramadan,being the holiest of those months.The spelling differs from one Moslem country to another,depending on the mother tongue(Arabic,Turkish,Malay,Indonesian...etc).The first name of Ardogan,the Turkish president,is Receb(Ragab) which is another holy Moslem month. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you jump from 7 floors up when the penalty for getting caught is so little? I hope the cops checked the guys knuckles to see if he'd smacked someone in the face lately. Why would you go next door to see a girl and then come back into the room to jump from the balcony? I'd think once outside the room you'd run. You try hearing something outside the restroom while taking a shower. I hope the BIB take this death seriously, seems an easy one to solve.

Popular Post RawboneFunksta Posted January 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2020 I am not politically correct or someone who thinks free speech should be banned. I am also not someone who thinks governments should legislate to force folks to use certain pronouns, however, if somebody asked me to or if I was very aware that using a pronoun, for example, 'he' when the individuals choice was 'she' made her uncomfortable, I would use their pronoun of choice. Politeness and respect costs nothing instead making the user a better person and the bearer of the pronoun happier. It's a win/win choice. Flying in the face of such English and Thai conventions of politeness is an active, pedantic choice and although biologically correct (and no ladyboy in Thailand ever tries to convince anyone they are biological females or marches in the streets to insist or calls even the meanest of misgender-ers terms like 'transphobic' or 'Nazi' as trans people often do in the west) it reveals an awful lot about the person doing the misgendering, none of it good. A rag like Thai visa referring to ladyboys as 'he' is irresponsible and crass. Posters like those of you at pains to point out that 'ladyboys are not she' need to cultivate a little largesse and tolerance in your nasty little soul. We all know that ladyboys are not biologically female and so do they no matter how much their heart yearns so there is no need to keep reminding us or them. The poor girl is f****** dead and still you must persist in cowardly meanness. Don't be alarmed that if you don't make similar remarks every time the subject is raised somebody else may think that you are gay.

Are you aware that she may well have had genital reconstruction? Irrespective if she chooses to identify as and live as female then basic respect for another human behoves us to act respectfully and use the preferred pronoun. Respect and good manners cost nothing. 5 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambum Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Apinyo's mother Amphan, 62, and father Thawee, 64, dismissed this as nonsense saying they believe their son was murdered. She had called earlier at 9.30 pm and there was no sign of any problem. Daily News also spoke to a 28 year old ladyboy friend of the victim who they called Mr A. Confused? Is a son a he or a she?

Popular Post thaibreaker Posted January 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2020 For his parents, their son will always be a he, I guess. As for the police, maybe they just tried to be formally correct. When it comes to all of us others, we should show the respect they have been trying to achieve, and call them ladies. We can come a long way with a little politeness. That is at least my point of view. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricTh Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I think things went sour when the Turkish guy discovered that 'she' is actually a he after she got naked. She demanded money from the Turkish guy but he refused to pay her. As far as I know in Islam, it is illegal for a man to dress up like a woman and homosexuals are seen as abomination in their religion. Most probably, the Turkish guy doesn't even know what a ladyboy is before this incident. Yes, I agree with her family... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even now, there are still Christians who view homosexuals as 'sinners' and 'deserve to be burn in hell'. It's 'god's words'... both Islam and Christianity state.

Ladyboys prefer to be known as "she", which is something you have difficulty accepting. Your problem, no one else's. It would be worthwhile for you to investigate the origins and colloquial use of the word falang before seeking to define it for the benefit of Forum members such as myself. You will find it has a broader application than you ascribe. As for ladyboys, I will bow to your obviously greater first-hand knowledge of the genre and what they prefer to be called. But whatever a ladyboy's personal preference, nothing can change the biological reality that they are men presenting as women. If ever I were to meet a ladyboy, I would have no objection to using female pronouns, as a matter of courtesy, if this was their wish. However, by doing so I would simply be endorsing a delusion. No big deal. Wasn't it Voltaire who described illusion as the first of all pleasures? Edited January 9, 2020 by Krataiboy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
