A public statement of homosexual inty would vlate two important valu of Thai culture: harmony - not to nont disagreements or nflicts - and the great value placed upon prervatn of fay uns and prervg leage through marriage and procreatn. Allyn (1991) also ntends that the anti-homosexual attus the Thai society are primarily the discrimatn agast the feme kathoey, who, acrdg to stereotype, display overt and loud genr-atypil social manners.

Many Thai physicians and psychologists still subscribe to the antiquated theori and rema imperv to new rearch fdgs or the Amerin Psychiatric Associatn's classifitn of homosexualy as a mental illns 1974. To reveal one's homosexual orientatn to one's parents would, a sense, vlate the Third Precept of Buddhism, and this has ed many Thai gays and lbians to hi their homosexualy om their parents for fear of g them sorrow (Allyn 1991). Th, a person's homosexual sex, per se, may be easier for his or her fay than other more visible featur, such as long-term same-genr relatnships (Jackson 1989) or g out as an openly gay or lbian person.

As for other sectns of the Buddhist non, John Garret Jon has nclud that there is an implic affirmatn om the silence regardg homosexualy, and the silence is certaly not due to the lack of material. When news spread around the entire Buddhist muny that he was homosexual, the Buddha was alerted to the problem and he issued a le for the muny not to give any ordatn to a homosexual, and those ordaed gays are to be expelled. Acrdg to their explanatns, all homosexuals and sexual viants were once offenrs of the Third Precept (prohibg sexual misnduct) _ at least their past liv, and they mt pay off their past ss their prent life.

Assumg a gay or bisexual inty is also a new, if not foreign, ncept; for example, there is no translatn or the equivalent Thai word for “gay, ” and as of 1996, the nstct “sexual orientatn” had not been translated even for amic e. The now-rare term lakka-phayt, roughly translated to “sexual perversn” English, was sometim ed to scribe homosexualy wh the medil ntext, therefore illtratg the past fluence of Wtern psychiatry. Acrdg to “Encyclopedia of Sexualy: Thailand”: “In Thai society today, men who have sex wh men are eher gay kg or gay queen: A gay kg is a man who plays the sertive role sex, whereas a gay queen tak a passive and receptive role sex.

Gay kgs are also varly referred to as “one-hundred percent male” (phuu-chaai roi poe-sen) and “a plete man” (phuu-chaai tem tua) (Jackson 1989), which reflects the belief that the sertive homosexual sex act do not jeopardize one's masculy. The ia that gay kgs are nfed or adventuro heterosexuals n be seen many Thai movi and fictn about gay relatnships wh a tragic endg, when the gay kg hero leav a vastated gay queen to marry a woman. For many other upl, however, male romantic and sexual relatnships adhere closely to the heterosexual mol of sex rol: fact, a gay kg almost always pairs wh a gay queen, and Thais fd difficult to prehend if two gay kgs or two gay queens would settle down together.

Followg the tradnal Thai heterosexual relatnship which prcrib monogamy the women and sexual eedom the men, gay kgs also have a tenncy to seek out sexual pleasur outsi their relatnship wh a gay queen.

Until the late 1980s, the only regular media verage on homosexualy was an advice lumn the wily popular tabloid Plaek (“Strange”) tled Chiiw Sao Chao Gay (“The Sad Liv of Gays”) which Go Paaknaam, a straight-intified lumnist, published letters about sexual and relatnship problems om men who have sex wh men (Allyn 1991).
