    I don’t think the distinction between poster and meme creator is particularly meaningful here. I also think that OP may have meant well. What exactly this meme is making fun of isn’t as clear as you make it out to be. It seems like a somewhat lazy setup(which is fine, not hating on shitposting) for the punchline more than something directed at sex tourists, to me anyway. The downvotes that lileath got were probably unwarranted, because there is a discussion to be had about the transphobia in this meme. Edit. Especially because the punchline is literally transphobia, whether intended by OP/ meme creator or not.

    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 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.

    I had a roommate who could decently understand japanese this way. We had him look away and translate for us a few times and he was spot on. I’m sure if he put effort into speaking it he could have learned to do that as well.
