Winston is only interested in the things i'm about to list below and it seems Ladyboys fulfill all his criteria for an intimate partner:
1) Emotional fulfillment. Winston wants someone who constantly showers approval and attention on him. Ladyboys are similarly starved for attention and a lot of them want a real male boyfriend who will overlook their issues.
2) Illusion. Some ladyboys are quite attractive by any metric. Winston wants the ideal woman.
3) Lifestyle. Winston does not want to get married and views long term attachment as a burden. Many ladyboys will fulfill his sexual needs while giving him adequate space. Pregnancy is not a concern.
Why not if he can find one who blows him away. And having some idea about his taste, I reckon that could easily happen in Thailand. For example, there's one go-go on the first level of Nana Plaza in Bangkok that specializes in Japanese/Korean spec petite, cute, and dolled-up LBs. On any night, it tends to be packed with lots of E. Asians who seem pretty wild about them. Thing is, its a pre-op bar. But I've been told that many clients prefer them that way.
I know Patpong area has a couple post-op go-gos on the main soi (Patpong 1). Many of the dancers are very attractive and light skinned but tend to be a bit bigger.
Personally, I find the top 10% or so of LBs I see in Thailand to really stand-out and the very best are truly stunning. But for me, one of their biggest drawbacks relative to certain real women is their body proportions. One of my favorite body styles is the wide-hip, narrow shoulder, round ass combo on a taller frame. Its still very rare on LBs who tend to have wider shoulders and narrower hips. At best, you usually see a few with those ambiguous thin bodies with no curves (hips and shoulders same), similar to a fair number of real Asian girls who are on the slimmer side. Once in a blue moon, you might see one with a body that sort of approximates some Brazilian style curves. But if they use liquid silicon to achieve that look artificially, its gonna mess them up within a few years. The best specimens probably start out as very feminine looking boys, get treated like girls by their mums, and start aggressive but correct hormone treatments at an early age. Horemone treatments can arguably influence the way the bones grow too.
I have seen a marked increase in more subtle femine traits amoung some LBs over the last few years. Clearly, the doctors, techniques, surgical procedures, etc. keep improving. In a few more years, the 'counterfeits' might become better than the real thing, at least when they are young.
Some of the Thai LBs in P4P can be dangerous. You often read about druggings, muggings, and stabbings perpetrated by them in the Thai hotspots. I believe most who do this stuff are the more masculine and rougher looking ones who have a harder time getting clients. The ones heavily into drugs are risky as well. The decent and better ones really seem to do fine these days. I remember last time I hit Khaosan Rd. backpacker district, I noticed a few gap-year European guys all taking some mediocre looking LBs for quickie short-times. In the 60 minutes it took me to get my outdoor foot massage, I saw one LB go and come back twice and as I was leaving, she/he got taken a third time!
At the end of the day, you should probably appreciate the Thai katoey phenomenon if you ever find yourself there. After all, it clearly neutralizes a percentage of the young men and arguably increases the supply of 'women' depending on how strictly you define that word.
