ok fair enough underwear is kinda useless... And ladyboys are some of the coolest party company have to admit that as well.
After my year in Asia these social enterprises are sadly well meaning people having some kinda white hero complex, when you rather should focus on letting the local people building infrastructure suitable for their culture. I have agree Hive account@rubellitefae academically proven opinion about "natural" interaction, not a forced upon "lets save these poor buggers and teach them to be like us".
But personally I ended up feeling very disconnected from local culture and like a white lady (doesn't really suite my self image, even if kind of white skinned and kind of wannabe lady). It is easier to blend in modern cultural meltdown of Australia or digging trough peoples trashes in Spain.
