I've been in HK for a few days, and followed some of you old Asia hands' advice, resulting in some great fun here.
Tonight was a different story: I was out on Luard Road, by the Amazonia bar/disco, and noticed a tall, pretty Asian lady waiting around for someone. Long story short: I said hello, and she agreed to come to my hotel room a couple of blocks away. After some chit-chat, I begin to take off her clothes. She stops me and says, "You know I 'lady-man', right?"
Ummmmmmmm.......no. NO!!! I did NOT!!! I asked "her" to leave, but not after she kept 750 of the 1000 HKD I'd given her.
I had done my research, spending weeks on TER and other Web sites about HK, corresponding with HK veterans, etc. And, nowhere did I see ANY references to transsexuals here. My "lady" said that there are lots of "lady-boys" here and that that corner had several of them.
Anyone else have such an experience? I'm not judging TS's; it's just not my cup of tea, and I'm frustrated and angry that I let myself get swindled into losing essentially $100 (USD)
