My Ladyboydate.com is now also known as mytransgenderdate.com. It is a dating site dedicated to men seeking to date transgender women, also known as third gender persons, or ladyboys in some parts of the world such as Thailand and the Phillipines.
There are a number of ladyboy dating websites on the internet, but what makes this platform different is that it is centred around making a deeper connection, and ultimately a loving relationship.
The concept was created by a French entrepreneur named Cyril Mazur, who is in fact engaged to a Filipino ladyboy.
The reason for the creation of the website was to help men connect with transsexual women on a platform that wasn't stigmatized by negative stereotypes. In his own words:
I made it my life mission to help trans women and trans attracted men connect and find love.
In this myladyboydate review, I will explore what makes the site unique, and what you can expect once you become a member.

Myladyboydate Overview
The term “ladyboys” is generally associated with Thailand because of the country's large community of third gender persons. However, ladyboys don't usually refer to themselves as such, and would rather be referred to as a woman (phu-ying), and will use the pro-nouns she/her.
Thailand's reputation for beautiful ladyboys is well documented, but often for the wrong reasons.
Many foreigners encounter transgender prostitutes in the red light districts of tourist areas such as Patpong and Nana in Bangkok, Chaweng in Koh Samui, Pattaya's Walking Street, and Patong in Phuket.
There are also a number of ladyboy cabaret shows in Thailand, which remain ever popular with tourists.
So when people mention the word ladyboy, it is often associated with the sex industry or provocative cabaret. There's a kind of underlying tone that it's all about sex.
Sure, some ladyboys are looking for hook-ups, as are many other women and men, but many transgender persons are seeking a stable, loving relationship.
On the flip side, there are men who wish to hook-up with or date seriously with a third gender person but don't know where to meet a partner.
And this is the mission of Myladyboydate. com: to bring people together from both sides of the fence and make them feel comfortable about their life choice, and provide a positive dating experience for transgender women and transoriented men.
With 125,000 profiles, all fully vetted for legitimacy, if you want to find a transgender date you most certainly will.

Best Place to Meet Ladyboys: Online Vs Offline
It is actually quite difficult to meet ladyboys. If I think about my time in Thailand, there has only been one ladyboy I have come across in a professional capacity and had long conversations with.
She was working at a school I was studying at.
Incidentally, her boyfriend had bought a motorbike from me on a previous occasion (she had accompanied him), and then when I saw her at the school we realized we had met before.
She came across as a lovely, warm-hearted person, and was very attractive.
Of course, I've seen ladyboys working in various shops and other professions, but she had made the full transition, and I would say the average person would not know she was born male.
So despite the prevalence of transgender persons in Thailand, one might find it difficult to meet a ladyboy outside of the nightlife industry.
And while no one should look down on those ladies working in that industry, it isn't the safest place for a person to meet a partner, nor the most conducive to starting a non-transactional relationship.
Moreover, not everyone wants to hang out in bars and go to nightclubs and do the whole staying up all night lifestyle.
Globally speaking, the large majority of people in relationships meet through work or friends, but because ladyboys make up a small percentage of the population in the majority of countries, it is of course more difficult to meet someone.
And that's why the Internet is such a great thing: because it provides a platform where people who are interested in a specific subject area or type of relationship can congregate in one place.
There are other dating sites like ThaiFriendly that have profiles of ladyboys too, or example, but the large majority on such websites are working in the nightlife industry and therefore may be working an angle for pay to play, so to speak.
If you're looking for genuine ladyboy dating, I'd say that myladyboydate. com is your best bet for a relationship.

How to Join Myladyboydate .com
It's free to create a profile and review your matches. You can also browse all the other member profiles and photos. Your profile will remain active as long as you wish, free of charge.
However, women (i.e. trans women / ladyboys) can use the full site free, while men will need to upgrade to a Premium membership in order to message other members.
I think this is a clever feature, because it stops trolls who simply want to waste people's time by sending unwanted messages and perhaps engaging in offensive behavior by messaging members.
Only those who are serious about chatting to someone online, with a view to an in-person meet-up will want to go Premium.
There's lots of profiles for Thailand-based ladyboys.
Tips for Filling Out Your Profile
The approval process for for profile pictures usually just takes an hour, but bear in mind that the service is based in the Philippines, so there may be a delay caused by the difference in time zones.
Here's a few things to note about filling out your profile:
- Standard members can upload 16 photos, while Premium and Verified members have no such limit.
- The editorial team may crop your photo or blur out the faces of other people in the background to protect their privacy. Generally the team will edit your photos so that they are presented in the best possible way.
- You'll need to choose a primary photo, which will be the photo that represents your profile.
- You can upload and delete photos at any time, as long as you fall within the allocated limit.
- You can change anything on your profile at any time, but your headline and your description will need approval from the moderators. When you fill out your profile you will see to the right the rules regarding the headline and the description.
- If you’re a lady, you need to complete your profile before you’re allowed to send messages. Once your profile is complete and approved, you can send and receive messages without any limitation. If you’re a man, you need to upgrade to a Premium membership. Once you have Premium, you can send and receive unlimited messages.

Myladyboydate Pricing
The cost of Premium membership is US$29.90 per month, with advantageous discounts if you pay for a longer period of membership.
The pricing is a good barrier to entry and prevents those who aren't serious about finding someone from using the service.
Remember that ladies can send messages without upgrading to Premium.
Premium memberships renew monthly, if you only pay for one month at a time. However, you can cancel at any time.
You will be notified by email when your premium membership is about to expire, so that you can renew. If your membership expires, you can simply choose a plan and register again.
Great to see some success stories.
Privacy
Privacy is of course of the utmost importance when it comes to using any website, particularly in the dating industry. This is your personal life, after all.
In the event that you want to stop using myladyboydate at any point in the future, there is an option under ‘account settings' that allows you to completely delete your profile, along with all your pictures.
None of your information or pictures will be stored on the system beyond that point.
Additionally, you don't need to use your real name on the website. You can use a pseudonym (username) instead.
You can also block members from contacting you. So if a member sends you a message that you don't like, or you have finished communicating with someone and don't want to be contacted again, you can simply go to account settings and block that person.
Similarly, if you see someone engaging in inappropriate behavior that you believe contravenes the site guidelines, you can report them.
There are report buttons on every profile page. Typical behavior that you might report someone for would be saying something offensive or asking for money, both of which are against community guidelines.
Contacting Support
One huge benefit of myladyboydate (also now mytransgenderdate) is that it is run by a trans couple. It is essentially a family-run business, so to speak.
This means there is personalized support. You aren't dealing with a huge brand that treats you like a number in the system.
If you have any problems with your profile, payment, or account, you can just email via the contact form and you'll get a reply, usually within 24 hours. You can do that here: https://myladyboydate.com/contact, or email support @ myladyboydate.com directly.
Summary
Myladyboydate is a by all accounts a transparent, ethical dating website with positive intentions for the transgender persons and those seeking a relationship.
Here's a quick benefits summary of things I've covered:
- 125,000+ profiles, all screened and legitimate
- Â Instant message profiles of interest
-  Use on your smartphone, tablet or computer
- Personalized support
- Privacy guaranteed
- Â 100% free to signup and browse, and always free for trans women
When you consider that the people behind the creation of the community are a man and a transgender woman in a relationship, and you consider the conscious message behind their work, it is clearly a transparent, positive mission and an ethically-minded place for ladyboys to meet potential partners, and vice versa.
The website basically operates in the same way any other dating platform does but keeps things very simple and user-friendly.
It's all pretty straightforward to join and there's a helpful FAQ for any basic questions you might have.
The fact that men have to purchase a Premium membership to send messages really does provide some protection for the women on the site, which has to be a good thing.
It also means the women can almost guarantee that the men have serious intentions. I think this is why this platform has become the most popular transgender dating site, and why it has so many success stories.
