Airline passengers flying into Thailand will soon receive on-board warnings against bringing counterfeit products into the Kingdom. I know, but you can’t make this stuff up. In honor of Thailand’s new stance against pirated goods and fakes, I give you the End of the Week: It Real Edition:

Being both a gay man and a frequent visitor to Thailand, I’m sure you think you can easily tell the difference between a ladyboy and a real lady. But how good is your katoeydar really?

I’ve always been amused by the irony of sex tourists who flock to Thailand but then have to buy the little blue pill to enjoy their holiday. Equally amusing are those buying ‘genuine’ Viagra off the street when the real stuff is available from your closest pharmacy as an over the counter medicine. The good news is by mid-October, thanks to the Thai government, getting the help you need will only run you 25 baht.

I’ve never been a fan of fake photos of naked celebrities. Most have been so obviously photoshopped they are ridiculous. The new trend is the fake celebrity nude with the good parts censored, which doesn’t make a lot of sense. Though I have to admit Tom Daley is looking even better than he usually does.

Idiots may say it is an issue of free speech, but when a company’s president comes out against gays and says we are disgusting people whose business he does not want, it’s time for you to quit funneling your money into that company’s bank account. Some gay men are having trouble boycotting Chick-Fil-A, their outrage over the company’s love of hate seeming a bit fake when they are still lining up to order lunch. Taking a cue from the Catholics, now you can right your lightly-breaded wrong. It’s just like going to confession, but without the molestation.

Ever wonder what straight guys who get paid to have gay sex think about it?

You gotta love the Chinese. Ever practical, even when it comes to being fake, Shanghai hosts a monthly meet up for gays and lesbians looking for a marriage partner. Of the opposite sex.

Condoms are not just for safe sex any longer. Now they can help you get some too. Thanks to the CSD500, soon men in Europe who fail to measure up will be able to resolve that little problem.

Since I started with Thailand’s efforts to keep pirated goods out of their country, it only seems fitting to highlight the U.S.’s efforts too: which is that it is perfectly legal to bring fake goods back into the U.S. with you. But they probably don’t mean a ladyboy.
