Topmonthawan "Gina" Boonchalee (R) a member of Venus Flytrap, a "ladyboy" band modeled after the Spice Girls, smiles prior to performance backstage in Bangkok, 07 February 2007. Thailand's famed tolerance of transsexuals often stops at the cabaret ticketbox but a new and apparently all-girl band has set its sights on the pop charts hoping that mainstream success will help change social attitudes. Venus Flytrap is not a girl band in the strictest sense, but a "ladyboy" band of five members who were born males and had their sex surgically altered. AFP PHOTO / Saeed KHAN
