But it changed its mind after receiving more than 100 job applications from transvestites and transsexuals.

So?
Kathoeys [translated roughly as Ladyboys]are more visible and more accepted in Thai culture than transgender or transsexual people are in Western countries or the Indian subcontinent. Several popular Thai models, singers and movie stars are kathoeys, and Thai newspapers often print photos of the winners of female and kathoey beauty contests side by side. The phenomenon is not restricted to urban areas; there are kathoeys in most villages, and kathoey beauty contests are commonly held as part of local fairs.
Some believe[who?] that this higher acceptance is due to the nature of the surrounding Buddhist culture, which places a high value on tolerance.[clarification needed] Using the notion of Karma, some Thai believe that being a kathoey is the result of transgressions in past lives, concluding that kathoey deserve pity rather than blame.[7]
