I have been to que a few untri, and no other have I seen homosexuals live their sexual orientatn so openly. The reason is that, although daily life Thailand lbians, gays and transgenr people live wh total normaly, Thai law is not as liberal as most of the society. In Thailand, homosexual marriage do not exist for now -although the bate over s legalizatn has been on the table for some time-.
Thailand is wily nsired a gay paradise and for good reason. Hot on the global LGBT travel statn list Thailand is a welg untry for gay... * gay thi *
The tolerance of Thai society means that gays, lbians and trans -men and women alike- have a relatively ee life to live and exprs themselv as they are. And surely that is why Bangkok attracts lns of gay tourists, immigrants and expats search of fun, a eer life or a relatnship that their untri of orig would be rejected, clanste or simply impossible. Although the are nothg but sensatns or beliefs whout much foundatn, this n be extend to gay men, or to anyone who mov away om the heteronormative non.
