Information concerning the racial distribution, family background, sexual history, education, and employment status of 27 New Zealand, male-to-female preoperative transsexual prostitutes was obtained by interview and questionnaire. Subjects lived in Wellington, New Zealand, and Sydney, Australia. Subjects recalled childhoods with maternal dominance, paternal absence, being youngest sons, and being dressed in girls' clothes by female relatives. Further, an early history of homosexual intercourse and cross-dressing behavior occurred significantly often. Moreover, it was apparent that the Maori race, which forms 9.0% of the total New Zealand population, was disproportionately represented; approximately 90% of the transsexual prostitute population in Wellington is Maori. Various explanations are offered for the racial inequality. It is concluded that cultural influences have an effect on the number of transsexual prostitutes in New Zealand. Further research is needed to assess whether these factors also influence the etiology and development of transsexualism.
通过访谈和问卷调查，获取了27名新西兰术前男变女的变性妓女的种族分布、家庭背景、性史、教育程度和就业状况等信息。这些受试者居住在新西兰惠灵顿和澳大利亚悉尼。受试者回忆起童年时母亲占主导地位、父亲缺席、身为最小的儿子以及被女性亲属穿着女孩衣服的经历。此外，同性恋性交和异装行为的早期历史显著频繁出现。而且，占新西兰总人口9.0%的毛利族在其中的比例过高；惠灵顿变性妓女群体中约90%是毛利人。针对这种种族不平等现象给出了各种解释。得出的结论是，文化影响对新西兰变性妓女的数量有影响。需要进一步研究来评估这些因素是否也影响变性欲的病因和发展。
