It's been a year since Jiratchaya, 26, took home the crown of the famed transgender beauty pageant Miss Tiffany's Universe. Generations of transgender women have relied on those who came before them, "the older sisters" as she put it, for advice and opinion on lifestyle and even healthcare. Perhaps things would've been much easier -- there would be professional helpers who understand what transgender women have to go through." Jiratchaya – also Miss Tiffany's Universe 2016 – was crowned Miss International Queen 2016 back in March at Tiffany's Show Theatre, Pattaya. For Miss Tiffany's Universe 2017, the reality show will air weekly starting on Aug 2 at 9.35pm on GMM25.
