Everyone makes the joke with Professor Oak, even though Birch was the first Professor to ask (In Crystal it’s a system message).

Don’t you just love it when the punchline is simply transphobia
I personally think the sex-workers (both trans and cis) are often sexy as hell. Hence the title.
Trans culture is more accepted in Thailand which is why their red-light district is known to have more trans people. The meme is about the awareness of this fact from western tourists visiting the area. The meme implies he has a preference but it doesn’t say in which direction. Not everything that mentions queer culture is mean-spirited Lileath.
I don’t think it needs to be mean spirited to be transphobic. The implication seems to be that he is tying to determine whether a sex worker is trans by asking if they are a boy. There’s probably a better way to word that question, but then it wouldn’t fit the meme.
Ah, I see. Someone might read this to mean trans women aren’t women. I didn’t mean it that way but I suppose that makes sense.
No, Thai culture has five genders iirc. The punchline is that the tourist only knows about two genders and is confused
That’s a very charitable interpretation.
How is it more charitable to think the Thai person is nonbinary than binary trans?
It’s a charitable interpretation of OP’s intended meaning. I’m not disagreeing that there are nonbinary trans Thai people. Do you really think this meme is a joke about the subtleties of Thai sex worker’s identities? This is clearly about finding out if a sex worker is trans by asking if they are actually a boy.
Also, OP initially defends the post by saying they find trans sex workers sexy as hell. For real?
I don’t think the person who posted this meme yesterday is the one who made the meme. I think it’s a re/crosspost. I think that since it’s a meme making fun of tourists to Thailand for being transphobic, the author would have to be someone who understands the basic subtleties of gender in Thailand.
I suppose the post title really needs to be read after the bottom line of the image - depending on the client it may appear above, etc
