"It's crazy to allow transsexuals to use a title of their choice. I want to get married with a real girl who is a Miss. If this was allowed, I could have got incidentally married with a former male who changed his title to Miss. It's a horrible idea." - Yes Vote
"Same as basic rights of gays and lesbians for jobs, social recognition and education, rights for transsexual people should be respected as well. Otherwise, society would become a distorted one where people of such sexual inclinations are discriminated, which will make them revengeful, extreme and destructive." - Basic rights

"To avoid confusion and to be fair to all parties, it should be Miss or Mr as their choice but with T for transsexual in parenthesis. For example, Ms(T) Albert Choice or Mr(T) Albert Choice." - Mr X
"They should not be allowed to use a title similar to naturally-born women or men as their physical facts are different. However, I agree that they should not be treated as men as they will be faced with lots of disadvantages." - Bangkokian
