Heroes of HIV - The Sex Worker

Sou Southevy is a 70-year-old transgender sex worker who has been working the streets of the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh since he was thrown out of home by his parents at just 14 years old. Through the worst ravages of the Khmer Rouge regime and since, Sou has been subjected to terrible discrimination and at times violence, and in the absence of any support groups working with transgender and gay men, he decided to start one himself.

@DavidEatsPaste I do respect all people as creations of God, like you I feel sorry for them, but for a different reason I feel sorry for them because they are so lost.

@ASA753 Dude, it's not a big deal. If you don't agree with the way he lives his life, that's okay. But I hope you aren't mean to gays/transgenders just because of your beliefs. They are people just like you. Show them some respect.

@DavidEatsPaste all the internet data in the world can & will tell u all sides of any subject area that u care to investigate in. But that doesn't mean u take it all on board as absolute truth & OK 2 do.

Desires of mankind is the problem, here. There is nothing "normal" about this, this is NOT what God created mankind for. We go outside the guidelines of creation & our purpose, there is price to pay!

We as part of humanity have to determine.... what r we doing here & what is our purpose?

I feel so bad for him! :( Especially living in Cambodia and all. Since there's no easy access to sex education, many people there have extremely outdated beliefs about sexuality/gender. It's not fair to him or any other misunderstood minorities to be treated with such disregard. For anyone making negative comments on this video, you have the internet (an huge informational database) to easily learn about these topics. Take it to your advantage BEFORE commenting.

To what depths does humanity have to stoop too? no guidance, no dignity, no morals.
