On the one hand, Olivia Culpo, fashion and beauty influencer, American model and actress. On the other, Anna Warinthorn, influencer, transgender model and always at the forefront to support the LGBTQIA + community, talks about issues related to diversity in Thailand and her passion for fashion.

It has always been committed and deployed to change the social perception of the LGBTQIA + community. &quot;I am a model, a social influencer and I am interested in fashion&quot; says Anna Warinthorn. Today she is also a TV show reporter, but the Thai model and transgender influencer ( <a href="https://www.instagram.com/anna_celebeauty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">with an account that boasts more than 1.1 million followers</a> ) caught everyone&#39;s attention during fashion weeks by parading for luxury houses. &quot;My hometown is Thailand, a country where society accepts diversity, but in terms of the law, gender diversity is not yet fully supported.&quot; LOI: How was this activist role perceived by your family? AW: 20 years ago, my family didn&#39;t understand me. My father tried to reinforce the fact that I didn&#39;t spend much time with him. This made me understand that it was not a simple malaise to alleviate. At that time, the diversity had not yet been told. Therefore, they have become uncommon issues for society, despite the fact that they have been around for a long time. No one undertakes to understand until it is in the first person, of themselves.

LOI: Did you have any masters of life? <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">AW: I think my greatest teacher of myself is me, thanks to what I have gone through in my life. I have learned from mistakes and have always solved problems in my own way. That way the next time I&#39;m faced with the same problem, I could easily fix it. So I feel like saying that the best teacher in life is me and all my past experiences. LOI: What are your favorite brands? AW: Of course Hermès, for its simplicity and practicality but also for the sophisticated and inconspicuous colors. It&#39;s one of those brands that can be used with any look, it&#39;s timeless, weather resistant, easy to maintain and has good after-sales service that suits my lifestyle, that&#39;s why I love it. LOI: How satisfied are you with your work and your life? AW: If I were to give you a percentage, I would answer 50% satisfaction. Because I search and find my satisfaction with my abilities. How far can you go? I believe that underneath my brain and my mind there are many powers. It depends on how long we have, the circumstances and the courage will lead us to use this potential of ours. I believe I can do and give much more to this world.

LOI: What do you wish for the future of the LGBTQIA + community? <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">AW: The acceptance opportunity for LGBTQIA + people is quite difficult in Thailand. The country&#39;s leader&#39;s ideal of jurisprudence is old, it is not modern, it is conservative, it adheres only to the masculine and feminine. He often satirized society, and underestimated us on several occasions in the Council. So I think if Thailand has failed to change the legal authority, it is simply not open to a new generation and cannot see people who really care about LGBTQIA + issues. True freedom is unlikely to happen in Thailand. <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;"> LOI: What are your future goals? AW: I never imagined what the future would be like. I have always planned my life, but never more than 2-3 months in advance. But I&#39;ve always set myself clear day-to-day goals. Thinking too long can make things less complicated when the complexity is less, but the road to success will be more difficult if complex thinking is a detail of the life perspective. Every action, image, job or money management. <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">Being a mother, child or good friend ... requires thinking ahead and if I plan too much about my future, it could affect the resolution of my daily goals.
