Trithipnipa Thippaphada (also known as Arm) was born in 1989, from a poor family. He used to be a model, a dancer in many pubs and bars in Bangkok to earn money for gender reassignment surgery and to pay off debt for his family.

Sharing about the surprising reason for the second gender reassignment surgery, Trithipnipa Thippaphada said: “I have lived in the form of a man for 23 years, 6 years later as a woman. After trying both of those things, I realized that I prefer to wear men’s clothes. I want people to follow and love me for who I am.”

Besides, he wants to convey the message: “Be yourself in your best way. Nowadays, people refer to being transgender in both positive and negative ways. Is it that we see ourselves the way others see us?

The appearance when returning as a boy is equally attractive.

I don’t want to be a handsome man, or a beautiful woman. I just want to be happy living my life. I want people to understand who I am, not based on gender identity.”
