Meet ‘Jimmy’ – Thailand’s hottest transsexual man

Kritipat “Jimmy” Chotidhanitsakul has become Thailand’s most talked-about transsexual man, owing largely to his handsome Korean features and outgoing personalities.

Jimmy’s visage is awash in typically male features: He grows a beard, keeps his hair short, has a visible Adam’s apple and speaks in a deep, distinctively male register. And coition-wise, Jimmy can also perform like an ordinary man thanks to cutting-edge medical technologies.

“I cut out both my breasts,” Jimmy told hosts of Tuen Makui on Channel 9. “I can get an erection …. and even an orgasm.”

The 30-year-old transgender has sought full-on medical interventions. Three years ago, he underwent five surgeries – four for genital reassignment and one for breast removal. For the past five years, he has relied on hormone injections to maintain his masculine appearance.

“I never feel that I want to be a man,” said Jimmy. “I always think of myself as a man …. I did everything so that I can put myself back to the gender I belong.”

Jimmy is one of only a handful of Thai trans men, a gender group that is much smaller than tomboys – females who retain their original sexual organs, but act and dress like men. Jimmy works as a TV producer and host of Z-Zabb and 30 Minutes Thailand, entertainment and travel shows, respectively, on Ping Channel. He has helped several organizations raise public awareness about Thailand’s transsexual minority.
