講座簡介:
近年來,「泰國」已成為台灣民眾首選的東南亞旅遊國家,據交通部觀光局統計,2017年有超過50萬台灣人前往泰國旅遊,和越南同為台灣人前往東南亞旅遊的熱門國家。 不可諱言,「同志旅遊」也是泰國鮮明的旅行印象之一,談到泰國,很多人提到對多元性別和性傾向的開放,在日常生活經常可見到同性戀、跨性別者,卻不能代表泰國社會對LGBT的寬容與接納。

「走路草農/藝團」的多元成展(Coexist Exhibition)主辦講座「東南亞的同志天堂?泰國婚姻平權現狀及挑戰」,邀請泰國公民媒體Prachatai記者Kongpob Areerat,針對泰國當前婚姻平權及社會氛圍,進行講座分享,現場亦開放提問交流,探究東南亞看似對性別最為開放的泰國,對於LGBT的真實現況。

For the past few years, Thailand has been a popular travel destination for Taiwanese to Southeast Asia. Statistics from Tourism Bureau showed that more than half million Taiwanese visited Thailand in 2017, making Thailand as top destination for Taiwan’s travelers to Southeast Asia, followed by Vietnam as second. Needless to say, Thailand is famous for LGBTQ travelers and gives images for its openness for transgender and gay people. However, in Thai society, seeing LGBT could not fully translate into real tolerance and acceptance.

Walking Grass Agriculture, Taiwan-based artist group, and co-exist art project host panel discussion “ Southeast Asia’s LGBT Paradise? Thailand’s marriage equality and challenges,”, co-organized by The Newslens. Thailand’s citizen journalist Mr. Kongpob Areerat (Prachatai English) will share what is Thailand’s real situation on LGBT, and moderate by YenLin Chen,Southeast Asian Studies, Chulalongkorn University, to give a different picture on contemporary Thailand.
