4. SYNOPSIS OF STORY
Inspired by a true story, this drama from Thailand tells the story of Nong
Toom (Asanee Suwan), who was born in a small community where his
family struggled with poverty, and Nong Toom himself was the target of
bullies who made fun of his delicate nature. From his early childhood, Nong
Toom felt more like a girl than a boy, and when he encounters a transsexual
for the first time, he comes to the realization that he also is a woman
trapped in a man's body. While Nong Toom is not by his nature
aggressive, one day he is forced to fight a bully to defend one of his
friends, and he discovers he has a natural talent for kickboxing. Nong Toom
begins training with a skilled kickboxing coach, Pi Chart (Sorapong
Chatri), but despite the best efforts of Nong Toom and his best friend Pi Bua
(Natcha Bootsri), the secret of his unorthodox sexuality leaks out. To his
surprise, Pi Chart accepts Nong Toom as he is, and boxing promoter Pi Mo
(Somsak Tuangmukda) embraces his lifestyle as a marketable gimmick, as
the fighter now battles his opponents while wearing makeup -- and wins
more often than not; however, Nong Toom begins to alienate his new
following when he declares that his embrace of women's clothing and
makeup is not a joke and that he's saving his prize money to one day have a
sex-change operation. While Beautiful Boxer was based on the life story of
Thai kickboxing champ Nong Toom Prinya Charoenphol, the fighter himself
did not actively participate in the making of the film.

10. DEFINING SEXUAL
ORIENTATION
BY GAIL S. BERSTEIN, PH.D
Sexual orientation - a classical example of a
way to categorized people that is both widely
misunderstood and controversial
Our culture is one that is both obsessed with
sex and phobic about it
Scientist & scholars - there is no one
universally accepted definition
Homosexual - an adult whose
fantasies, attachments and longings are
predominantly for persons of the same gender
Heterosexual – are those for whom
fantasies, attachments and longings are
predominantly for persons of the opposite
11. Bisexual – are those with fantasies,
attachments and longings for
persons of both gender
This definitions distinguishes
between orientation and identity
Orientation – definitions applied to
others for scientific and scholarly
purposes
Identity – what we call ourselves,
to the identity we each have as a
gay, lesbian, bisexual, or
heterosexual person

sometimes interpreted other antidiscrimination

their gender, to include gender identity

guidelines for dealing managers who discriminate, up
to & including termination of employment
