What converts better: gays or shemales?

Most porn terms or not PC.

But porn isn't suppose to PC it's suppose to be tasteless and nasty.

I have a lesbian friend who is boyish looking and wears big baggy clothes out to the clubs so sometimes the gay guys will hit on her thinking that she is a twink. Here favorite saying to them is "all I have is a bone and a hole so you aren't going to want what I have." I wouldn't call that PC but the expression on their faces is always priceless.

Frankly, the queer community would like to be known as people. Who we fuck hasn't got a helluva a lot to do with anything else, as a general rule. It's a heteronormative culture, and frankly, there is a preference that the gender of our bedmate not come into it at all.

From a porn perspective, it's preferred that it be niche specific - lumping it as "gay" isn't technically accurate, anyhow, 'cos you might notice that "gay" is strictly dickly. Where do dykes and genderfuck fall in that binary system? Out in the world away from porn, "gay" encompasses LGBT and all the shades along that spectrum (current generational norms prefer the taking-it-back iterations of historically derogative terminology) - our industry doesn't, as a whole, provide for those gradations, and as such, it's preferred we just leave them the hell alone and let them tell us what the categories are.

If I had my druthers, I'd go w/ who's fucking/ being fucked rather than pigeonhole something like a pretty fluid concept like sexuality.

You can pigeonhole me as straight. However, being a libertarian, I dont care what people do with their bodies, and with very few exceptions who or what they do it with. For instance, dont fuck anyone underage or my dogs.

On the other hand, I don't want to give up my verbal shortcuts because it might offend someone. I may give them up for money on web sites, but not for free in general use because I don't want to be part of the decline of our American English language, including it's slang. When we start changing the meaning of words or deleting them outright willy-nilly because they piss someone off, we might just as well put tape over our mouths and shut the fuck. The intellectual and creative level will remain the same, and you wont get bugs in your teeth while riding your hog.

But so Gay shemales do it with men or women?
Or perhaps both?

I guess a shemale fucking a female would be straight porn.

No one's asking anyone to cease using speech that is clear and concise.

Christ, I tend towards one of the foulest mouths I know. Someone did ask a question as to preferred nomenclature; I happened to know and feel confident in speaking up.

Having said that, we DO change language willy-nilly. Language is a constantly evolving thing - particularly American English. It's a living language. 50 years ago, "gay" meant "cheerful and upbeat." "Faggot" meant "bundle of sticks" and "dyke" was something that held back water.

Don't get your knickers in a twist. No one's asking you to stop using the word "gay." But if you want to market to that community, it helps to know where the collective consciousness is.

Also, if you want to discuss the decline of the English language, I would strongly suggest looking into the differences of it's vs. its, as they likewise are not interchangeable. ^.^

[InfoGuy]

Minority groups have taken words that they find offensive and pushed them into positive mainstream usage to reduce the level of stigma associated with it. For example, let's take the word queer, which used to be considered very offensive. After years of broadcasting Queer as Folk and Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, plus the current Queer TV, it's no longer shocking to associate a gay person as being queer.

The same thing that happened with Foxy shooting with Alex the Dwarf again. Foxy these days only wants to do glamorous mainstream tranny porn.

Buck Angel did a shoot with another Shemale named Hot Wendy Williams.

For me what converts better is attractive talent doing unusual kinky stuff.
(If only I could find more of it to promote)
