  • I saw a really interesting video essay on this topic once. The difference is in the way that gender is percieved in collectivist societies rather than the individualist societies that western societies tend to be.

    In an individualist society transgender people are percieved as rebels that are in conflict with their AGAB, while in collectivist societies changing your gender to match your energy is confirming the social construct and supporting the society. still, gender non-confirming people are often seen as a threat and I guess gender plays into that.

    This is all from memory though, might not apply to Thailand or is completely wrong
