You should read the KayTBuffs review of SexArt that you're paying $150 for, the bottom line is a copy and paste of the BatorAly review of Gender X immediately below it. Something fishy going on here. Does nobody read or check submitted reviews anymore?
Wow amazing, you even won $150 for this sham review, and your alias BatorAly also won another $100 for the original review of Gender X whose bottom line you copied and pasted here LOL. Clearly the PU admin just dish out raffle tickets these days without even reading or checking the submitted reviews. This site has become a joke.
Hmmmm seems you've screwed up here. The bottom line appears to be about a site called Gender X not Sex Art. And coincidentally it's word for word identical to the BatorAly review of Gender X immediately below it. Does this mean that KayTBuffs and BatorAly are the same person using 2 accounts to scam the raffle for double prizes?

Pros:
PU/TBP discount
Nearly 20 years worth of updates online.
Site still updating with a new photo set nearly every day and a new video at least weekly.
Nearly 2000 models with over 10,000 photo sets and over 1000 videos.
Photo sets with downloadable zips in 4 sizes 800px, 1200px, 2500px & 5500px.
Latest videos come with 4 download options 1920, 1040, 720 & 480.
No download limits encountered and no issues using download manager.
Cancellation was easy enough with immediate email confirmation.
Cons:
Watch out for the pre-checked cross sales, you could end up with $80 of charges for unwanted subscriptions if you miss it.
Biggest con for me was the incomplete and shambolic model index, will explain more in bottom line.
I found the videos boring but maybe that's just me, I'm only really interested in the photos.
There's no real description or preview of the videos so you don't really have much idea of the content before you watch or download it.
No file sizes listed for videos or photo zips.
You could probably count the number of Black or Asian models on one hand.
Minimal model info.
Bottom Line:
I signed up for Femjoy early December after spotting a Cyber Monday deal on PU/TBP at $5 for the first month, an offer I found too good to refuse. I did have reservations about signing up though as I really don't like the Trust Charge billing company they use and the way they add 20% to the join price allegedly for VAT, not to mention the pre-checked cross sales. Happy to report that no problem with unauthorised charges though and cancellation was relatively straightforward. With the threat of a recurring billing of $36 I was only ever going to stay for 1 month.
The earliest updates on Femjoy date from June 2004 so you have almost 20 years of updates to see here. It's a nude art photography based site similar to MetArt with photo sets outnumbering videos by ten to one. There's almost 2000 models and they are almost all attractive to drop dead gorgeous. The content is nearly all solo with the odd two or three girl sets here and there. You get some brief biographical info of the models such as hair and eye colour, height, weight and breast size. They don't however say where they are from, I'm guessing mostly white Eastern Europeans. There's also something weird going on with the given ages of the models. You can look at a model who might look in her 20s then look at her bio and her age is given as 42. I'm guessing they put the model's age when she first appears on the site then it rises year by year to give her current day age.
The site is easy enough to find your way around, the main headings being home, models, photos and videos. My preferred way to browse a site is via the model index working my way through from A to Z. It was only after going through the models beginning with M it suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't seen Matty, a model I had noticed on the home page due to a recent update, so I checked again and she definitely did not appear in the model index. I then started looking through the photos pages and by the time I had reached page 50 dating back to 2018 I had come across more than 300 more models that do not appear in the model index. This seems to be a major oversight on the part of the site owners not ensuring that models who have debuted on the site in the last few years are added to the model index. You can also sort the model index, photos and videos by most recent and rating although I think sorting by rating is pretty useless as every photo set and video is rated 5/5 and every model apart from 2 on the last page are rated 5/5. There are also several dozen models in the model index who have zero photo sets or videos, I'm assuming these are models who retired and asked to have their content removed. Surely you should also remove them from the model index?
The photo sets are the main strength of Femjoy, they clearly use some of the best photographers in the business. I particularly enjoyed the many photo sets shot in stunning outdoors settings. Thankfully they now produce the photo sets in a decent mid size 2500px option which they haven't always done until recent years and the main reason I had never joined until now. The file sizes of the 2500px zips are mostly nice and compact coming in at between 30 to 100MB although for some reason the updates in the last few months are more like 300 MB. The zip file names include model name, photographer name and set name. Unfortunately they don't include the date so the photo sets won't sit in chronological order in your folder as they do at MetArt. There was no index of photographers that I could find although if you are viewing a photo set you can click on the photographers name and you'll be taken to a page with all their other sets.
I'm not that interested in videos and tend to find them boring on these types of sites. The first one I watched was of a beautiful Asian babe with an infectious smile named Kloyali. She's walking around on a beach in a bikini, removes the bikini and then rolling around naked on the sand and in the sea, you barely get a glimpse of pussy. It's very tame. Not all videos are like that though, I watched one of Caprice masturbating and then one of Anna N called Maid for Pleasure where she's dressed as a French Maid and masturbating with a dildo so there is some more explicit stuff but I'm not sure how much of that you will find. I guess it depends on the model and what she feels comfortable doing.
In conclusion an an excellent site with beautiful models and amazing photography, highly recommended if you have the time and patience to go through it and find all the models that are missing from the model index, thankfully 10 days off work for Christmas meant I had the time. I was tempted to knock points off for the shambolic organisation of the model index but in the end just based my score on the quality of the content.
And yet other's who have reviewed this site claim they also had access to Nubiles.net so this still seems very hit and miss whether you get access or not. Since Nubiles.net is the only site that interests me I make sure I always join direct via that site to be certain of having access.
I used to love the DDF Network for the high quality solo photo sets on sites like 1 by Day and DDF Busty but I see no sign from the site tour that they still produce any of this type of content now so I can't see myself ever going back again, it just looks like every other run of the mill boring porn site now.
I guess the admin doesn't check in very often these days since the site is basically dead now for most of the month apart from a couple of days before the raffle drawing when there might be a handful of reviews. It amazes me that this site manages to keep going on the amount of activity there is these days.
Thanks for your kind words LKLK. I hope to get back to writing some reviews at some point. At this moment in time I haven't actually subscribed to any porn sites in around 18 months as up until a month ago I had literally been working 7 days a week for 18 months with only Christmas day off so limited time for the things I enjoy. Being self employed my business took a financial hit during the pandemic and lockdowns which racked up some debts so been working hard to clear those and get myself back to where I was before covid. Hopefully I can ease off a bit now and get back to the things I enjoy. Hope life is treating you well.
The main payment processor here is VXS Billing which is a long established biller in the adult business for many years. I've used it a few times over the years when joining some of the individual sites in Adult Prime such as Club Seventeen (Club Sweethearts) before Adult Prime existed. I've never had any problem with them regards cancelling or unauthorised charges so I would suggest you're pretty safe here. If you have any doubts I see you can also use Paypal to join here which is an option I would always use where it's available.
She was certainly a classic beauty and it's a shame her content has disappeared but you could probably find most of it online for free if you know where to look.
I remember having that $1 membership, must have been 2014 as that is the date on my Erotic Beauty folder but even at that price I got bored and cancelled it after 3 or 4 months. This site has fallen a long way considering it was updating two photo sets per day back in 2012. At two updates per week it's a site I would now only join for $10 once every 5 to 10 years so even $1 a month seems expensive now for this site. I guess I could justify a membership soon as I now have nearly 7 years of content to catch up on.
Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
Pros:
Choice of CCBill or Epoch for payment processing.
Site online since 2003.
Good sized collection; 311 Models, 2468 photo sets (333,367 photos) & 759 movies.
Photo sets since 2011 come with downloadable zips in 3 different sizes; small 1280 px, medium 2000 px and large at least 3000 px. Between 2009 and 2011 the 2000 px is the largest on offer.
Newer videos (2011 onwards I think) fairly decent quality 1280 x 720 with 5k bitrate.
No background music in videos.
A paradise for stocking lovers.
Good download speeds.
No problem using my D/L manager (DTA)
Good file naming for zips (model name plus set number), videos only the newer ones have unique file names including the model name.
Advanced search engine covering dozens of categories although I'm not convinced it's always accurate.
Rate models and add to favourites.
Cons:
Since 2017 the site is barely updating. 1 update in the whole of 2018, 2 in 2019, 4 in 2020 and 1 during my membership in January 2021.
The dates have been removed from the tour pages so you can't really tell if it's updating before signing up.
The bonus site Suburban Sluts adds little value as mostly low resolution pre 2004 content.
Pre 2009 photo sets max at 1024 px.
Older videos poor quality at 720 x 576 with 1k bitrate.
If you're not in to solo content not much else to see.
Too few outdoor sets.
Can become a bit repetitive.
No PU Discount.
Bottom Line:
Suburban Amateurs is one of those sites that has been around for years and has always been kind of semi on my radar but since they used to charge a ridiculous $35 there always seemed to be something cheaper and better on offer so never got around to joining. Lately I noticed the price is now down to $24.95 and in addition there's something strange going on with CCBill's regional pricing from the UK when I change the price to GBP currency the price comes down to the equivalent of $19 so I signed up as it's the cheapest I've ever seen this site.
The site started out back in 2003 with the premise that these are British amateur models in solo striptease and masturbation photos and videos. Whilst it's true that you may find some genuine amateurs unique to this site particularly in the early years, over time they gradually started using more professional models. You can find many well known British and Czech models who have appeared on dozens of sites, names such as Abigail Toyne, Carla Cox, Cate Harrington, Charlie (a.k.a. Kloe Kane), Danielle Maye, Kacie James, Kayla Louise, Michelle Moist, Natalia Forrest & Sandra Sanchez to name a few. There are also some interesting finds of some models early in their career. The model named Kirsty H here is actually Sophie Dee before she had those horrible big fake tits and there's also a cute , petite, small breasted Asian girl named Koko Li who later morphed in to Tigerr Benson on DDF Busty with a massive pair of fake tits.
The vast majority of models are young and hot, aged from 18 to 20 something with only a handful of older ladies in their 30s and 40s. Whilst you might find the odd pair of fake tits here and there the vast majority look natural with a good variety of body types from slim to curvy. There's little ethnic diversity here, out of 311 models I only counted 7 or 8 with Black/Asian/Indian heritage. Make up and styling is minimal so in general they have that cute girl next door look. The content is about 98% solo striptease and masturbation with just a small number of lez, BJ, and B/G fuck scenes/picture sets.
The site enjoyed rapid growth in the early years updating 6 or 7 days a week from 2003 through to 2010 before tailing off to 5 days a week in 2010 then gradually down to 3, then 2 then 1 a week from 2014 to 2017 when it stopped updating regularly with only a handful of updates since then. So by the time the resolutions of the photos and videos improved in 2011 the site was already going into decline. The result of this is that around two thirds of the overall photo sets have a maximum resolution of 1024px.
Despite the amateur theme of the site the photography is for the most part of a good professional standard. There are a few amateurish sets though that look like they were shot by somebody different from the main photographer. As a lover of striptease content these photo sets really hit the mark for me with lots of sexy outfits, uniforms and especially stockings and heels. You often get 50 or more photos of tease before the clothes come off. Sets generally contain 120 to 160 photos. In many ways this site reminds me of Only Tease but with the added pay off of full nudity with masturbation and toy use. My only complaint would be the lack of variety in shoot locations. The majority of shoots take place in what I assume is the photographers house so you're constantly seeing the girls photographed in the same bedroom, same bathroom, same kitchen, same stairway etc. It would have been nice to see more outdoors sets.
If you like to hear girls talking dirty to you in a British accent as they tease you and strip out of their clothes before masturbating then the videos here might hit the mark for you. I enjoyed them to a point but after watching a few it started to get old rather quickly but then I'm more of a pictures guy. Average run time of the videos is around 15 minutes. One minor annoyance is that when you click on a video it starts playing automatically in your browser.
The navigation is simple and functional. You have the usual options of photos, videos and models with the option to sort them by most recent, most popular and name/title. There's also an A-Z model listing where you can click on the letter on the alphabet. Model info is limited to age, star sign and home town.
You get access to a bonus site called Suburban Sluts with 723 photo sets and 144 movies. I had a brief look around but I didn't find any photos bigger than 528 x 792 px or videos bigger than 352 x 288 so I didn't save anything.
Overall I really enjoyed the models and sexy teasing photo sets here but the glory days for this site were clearly 10 years or more ago so realistically can't score it more than a 79 today and that's probably being generous.
Wow, a hard hitting exposé from the PinkPanther revealing the truth about the demise of the once great Twistys Network which certainly wouldn't be apparent from the one page click anywhere and straight to sign up site preview. One can only hope as many people as possible see this review before wasting their money signing up expecting to find all the classic content. I had been tempted to join a couple of times recently by cheap holiday deals but in the end wasn't prepared to risk my credit card with their scam biller. I'm just glad I downloaded and kept all the classic photo sets I wanted from the Twistys, Blue Fantasies & Anette Dawn sites before they sold out to Mindgeek.
That's probably the issue then if you're using an older computer, it's probably struggling with the higher bit rate videos. I found the bit rates varied quite widely on the 1080p videos at W4B from around 8k to 13k. I remember when 720p hd was a relatively new thing back around 2006 or 2007 my old computer used to crash every time I tried to play one.
I couldn't see myself paying $50 for the whole network, the sites are just too big with too much content and I simply wouldn't have the time to justify paying that price. They're always sending me emails offering 2 of their sites for $30/month but I would be much more likely to join if they just offered me one site at a time for $15.
When you say about playing back the videos are you referring to streaming them online within the website or playing them back on your computer or device after downloading them? I don't have a great deal of technical knowledge regarding these things but this is just an observation from when I had a membership at W4B a couple of months ago. I noticed that the videos here had a much higher frame rate and bit rate than most other websites I've had memberships at, the frame rate was 59 f/s and the bit rate on some hd videos as high as 13k which made for some very large file sizes. Most other sites I've had memberships at the videos usually have a frame rate of around 25 to 30 f/s. I really have no idea if the higher frame rate makes much difference but my observation was that their videos were some of the sharpest crystal clear videos I've ever seen or downloaded. I personally had no problems with the playback of their videos either online or offline but I guess it's possible someone with a slower internet connection could struggle to stream their hd videos due to the higher frame rate and bit rate.
I guess it was just temporary, seems to be ok my end now. They do seem to suffer more technical problems than your average paysite, I was plagued by them last time I had a membership.
I agree, I like those confirmation emails for joining and cancelling. These days if a site doesn't use CCBill or Epoch I won't risk my regular credit card. If I do take a chance on an unfamiliar biller I will use my prepaid card on which I never keep a balance of more than $50. That prepaid card also comes with an app where I can instantly block the card if a renewal date is due and I have any problem cancelling. Twistys used to be one of my favourite sites but I haven't joined for over 10 years. It was an independent site with a good webmaster who used to be active at PU responding to reviews, comments, complaints but they sold out to Mindgeek (Brazzers) years ago and I simply refuse to give my credit card number to their dodgy billers.
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
Discounted price through PU/TBP
Choice of billing methods is Paypal (Epoch) or Rocketpay
Large collection going back many years including the classic magazine shoots from the 70s 80s & 90s.
Something to suit all tastes from solo glamour photo shoots to B/G hardcore videos, lesbians, threesomes and more.
Photo galleries downloadable in zips in two different sizes 1024px & 1600px.
Most videos come with 4 download options; 1920 x 1080 (8000k), 1280 x 720 (4000k), 992 x 558 (2000k) & 640 x 360 (1000k). Can also stream at 720p and 480p.
Site updates 7 days a week with usually 3 or 4 galleries/videos.
Good D/L speeds around 80% of my max.
No problem using my D/L manager (Firefox DTA).
Excellent navigational features; search and sort the content, tags and categories.
Add comments, like and add to favourites.
Cons:
Pre-checked cross sell on sign-up.
Visa cards not accepted if joining through Paypal.
Minimal 4k video, only one or two a month have the 4k option which is basically the new Penthouse Pet of the month solo shoots.
For a name like Penthouse famous for it's glamour shoots a maximum photo resolution of 1066 x 1600px is disappointing by today's standards.
Poor file naming of zips and videos, just meaningless numbers.
A minor annoyance having to scroll right down to the bottom of every photo gallery page to get the zip download links.
Some of the oldest pre 2005 photo shoots that have not been remastered are low resolution typically 432 x 648px.
Bottom Line:
Penthouse is probably one of the most famous names in the adult industry and those of us of a certain age can probably remember getting our hands on a copy of their magazines as a curious teenager way back before the internet or even VHS videos were invented. I'm not quite sure what the story is with this website but I get the impression the original Penthouse site closed down, the content library got sold and was then re-branded as Penthouse Gold. The Best Porn list this site as being launched in 2019 but the library of content here certainly goes back many years including the classic magazine shoots from the 70s, 80s & 90s. Site stats as of today are 4007 videos, 8528 photo galleries and 2836 models (including the male models).
The majority of models are US based so that makes for a more diverse selection of models than your typical Eastern European website. You have everything from fresh faced teens to busty milfs and everything in-between with a nice selection of Ebony, Asian and Latina models thrown into the mix. I found nice photo collections of many of my favourite models I've collected since the early to mid 2000s such as Carli Banks, Faye Reagan, Georgia Jones, Hanna Hilton, Jana Jordan and Shay Laren as well as some of my more up to date favourites like Alex Grey, Emily Willis, Gabbie Carter & Naomi Swann.
The site updates 7 days a week with usually 1 video and 2 or 3 galleries. Typically that's a hardcore B/G or lesbian scene and the 3 galleries usually consist of a solo glamour shoot, a hardcore or lesbian photo shoot and another vault set which is a classic set remastered. Occasionally you can get 5 or 6 updates in a day when the “ Pet of the Month” is added. Unfortunately many of the updates are not actually newly produced content. Majority of the scenes added in the last week are from DVDs released in 2008 and 2009 however it does appear to be all exclusively shot by Penthouse Studios.
It's easy to find your way around the site with the excellent navigational features. You have “Penthouse Pets” which shows you all the Pets of the Month with a drop down menu allowing you to search any year from 2020 back to 1972. The videos heading has sub sections for “Latest videos, Behind the Scenes, PH Confidential and 3D”. You can also search the content from drop down menus of various categories from the type of action (B/G, G/G, BGG etc.) to model appearance (Busty, Blonde, Redhead, Asian, Ebony etc.), You also have a nice model index which you can sort by most recent, most popular and an A-Z listing. Other categories include Erotica and Magazines where you can browse and read erotic stories, letters and articles as well as the photos from the Penthouse magazines right back to the 1970s. There's also a link to discounts to other sites, live cams and a store selling adult products and sex toys.
Being a photo collector my main interest in the site were the solo glamour photo shoots. These are professional glossy magazine style shoots here with typically between 30 to 60 photos per set, beautiful girls in nice settings wearing sexy lingerie before getting naked. Most disappointing aspect of the photos was having a maximum resolution of only 1600px. The content seems to have been downgraded in this site because the original Penthouse site used to issue photo sets in 4000px resolution but unfortunately I never got around to joining that.
Being a big name studio the videos obviously have a professional feel to them with nice settings, excellent camera work, lighting and sound. The solo Penthouse Pet videos are generally quite short at 4-5 minutes but the action scenes I've watched can be anything from 15 to 45 minutes. There are also a number of full length movies around 1hr 30 to 2 hrs long although those are mostly streaming only. The videos I watched just seemed like run of the mill porn videos, I didn't see anything too extreme, in fact I would say much of it is bordering on glamcore. I did find some of the lesbian videos particularly hot though especially the 3 way lesbian scene starring Nekane, Rebecca Volpetti and Stella Cox dressed as schoolgirls.
Overall a decent site with lots of exclusive material to see and something to suit most tastes. Even better if you can find yourself a holiday $15 discount deal as I did.
Thanks for the warning, I was tempted by a Christmas deal for Twisty's Network at $7.99 but when I saw it's Probiller for the payment I backed out. I think Twisty's also operate the pay extra for downloads scam as well.
Thanks for the win, much appreciated especially this time of year. I assume you'll note my location as UK as you replied to Pinkerton earlier in this thread? Thanks again.
Just took a quick look at this site due to the latest review by exotics4me and noticed that they have a Black Friday deal going on at $7.95 for the first month or $49.95 for a year if anyone is interested.
