My Google alert for stories about Thailand had a strange one today. It was a story that David Carradine’ producer claims he was murdered by lady boys. But the really strange part is the blog – it is called Your Funeral Guy. The blog seems to be about news stories that involve death. Also stories about the funeral business. So he has a bunch of posts about David Carradine dying in Bangkok. This particular post might be a bad example but it has some misinformation. He says “Lady Boys are hookers that generally operate in pairs.” I think a lot of lady boys would scratch his eyes out for saying that. Many only want to live as a woman and they are not hookers. Some are successful models, like Poy in that picture above. The ones who are hookers probably don’t look like that.
Maybe the story has appeared elsewhere and I haven’t seen it yet. I’m wondering why they suspect lady boys. Couldn’t it be anybody if there was someone involved in David’s death?

It seems to me that you’re correct – without knowing more about David Carradine or the details of what evidence was found, it could be anybody IF someone else was involved. But lady boys make the story more sensational, more likely to grab attention. It’s all quite sad.
That image is a lady boy? Beautiful.

In the blog post i posted only the information provided by the David Carradine producer about Thai Lady Boys. The producer is the one who made the comments.I did not mean to offend anyone. It is reported as a quoted story and the title says it may be true.
Apologies to the offended. Everyone has a right to their own gender choices.

Hmm, if that is what the producer said then I think he is not making many friends for anybody with comments like that.
Yes, that is Poy who is a rather famous katoey

More news of David makes me feel angry. Nothing against it though but it makes me angry non the less.
He was awesome in the Kill Bill movies.

I would think that someone who lives in Thailand would have a much better opinion of the ladyboys. I’ve seen some of them and some could make some women jealous of their good looks. And some of them do P4P.

I read on Yahoo that the Carradine family are claiming he was ‘hit’ by a group of kung fu assasins. I can understand the family wanting to keep his sexual preferences private, but who really cares. News today, history tomorrow.
Maybe the producer was thinking of ldyboys in the USA and not in asia.

I think the producer is just fanning the story into something it’s not to create interest for the last movie.. me thinks…

p.s., if someone had a girlfriend/boyfriend who looked like Poy, do you think they would tell their friends the truth about his/her gender… i don’t think so…

William,
What is that off topic rant about?
Paul,
If you were in his family I am sure you would prefer a different spin on the story.
John,
I have never been with a lady boy so I am not sure of the way he would kill me (not Bill).
Tony,
It is great you have come out of the closet. Your father will be proud.
William again,
If a man has sex with a man he is gay. Although some lady boys are physically attractive they are men. Never once in my life have I ever disrespected myself or women I love by considering any other option.
Don’t get me wrong. The women I love still hate me but I am but kind of stubborn in that regard.
