When traveling to Thailand, why should you never buy a curved fan when you see it in the market?

When traveling to Thailand, the reason why you should never buy a curved fan when you see it in the market: It is easy for others to misunderstand that it is a shemale group, making it a joke.

Nowadays, more and more Chinese people go to different places to see the scenery. As you visit more and more countries, you will feel that the world is really huge. Every country has its own uniqueness, so while appreciating the style and beauty of other countries, you should also pay attention to respecting the customs and habits of this country, otherwise you may accidentally joke and lead to embarrassing things.

When it comes to China’s favorite travel destinations, Thailand is on the list. As the most popular country, more and more Chinese people like to come to Thailand to experience the unique experience of Thai tourism and enjoy the exotic customs of Thailand. But did you know that there is one thing you need to pay special attention to when traveling in Thailand, and that is the "curved fans" on the market.

I believe that many friends who have been to Thailand have seen a small vendor selling a crooked wave fan. This kind of fan, with its unique appearance, is almost impossible to see in China. Therefore, some domestic tourists may not understand the function of this fan and even think it is a defective product, but in fact, this fan has unique functions, which is related to the Thai ladyboy community.

In Thailand, the group of ladyboys is very large, and many transgender people are difficult to identify, so Thailand has curved fans to distinguish normal girls and ladyboys. Because only transvestites can choose this kind of fan, if you buy a curved fan, you will inevitably be considered a transvestite or an inappropriate local custom, which will be regarded as a joke by the locals. So to avoid embarrassment, when you travel to Thailand, you should be careful not to buy such vermicelli in the market.

Due to the different customs and habits of different countries, there are many such things when traveling abroad, such as the "curved fan" above. If tourists are not Thai, out of curiosity, they may choose to buy such a "strange" fan, but this will cause some minor problems for our travels.

However, if you want to avoid or reduce this situation, it is not impossible. Before you choose your destination, you can carefully strategize how to go to local customs so you're not completely confused. But there are also some friends who may not be good at preparing on their own, so they can also choose to travel together, so that when they are unsure, they can ask the local tour guide to avoid some embarrassing situations.

When traveling abroad, respecting local customs not only avoids embarrassment but also shows courtesy and respect, which is why we traditionally call it "doing the Roman thing."
