UMBA8's Review
I find facing doggy style to be one of the most underrated positions in terms of viewing pleasure. Particularly the angles where you don't actually see any visible penetration - your imagination and the female's facial expressions make it more enjoyable I find.

Pros: |
+Access to the Adult Time network
+4K is available for videos dating back to October 2018 last year, 1080p is available for all down to 160p
+196 videos at time of this review, 40-100 mins length each (50 mins average)
+Excellent schedule: two updates per week (5 days, 2 days cycle)
+Sensational production values shot in cinematic, reduced saturation
+Best and most creative porn stories out there that pertain to the taboo theme – stepfamily, cheating, coercion etc
+Revered talent young and MILF who act generally well
+Images are all in 1920x1080
+Download speeds are splendid, you can also download videos from thumbnails (handy)
+Favourite videos, models and channels on the network
+Like or dislike videos, image sets and models
+Comment on videos, image sets, model profiles and even channel profiles
+Adult Time’s black user interface is impressive, simple and easy to filtrate – can blacklist performers and content you don’t enjoy
+Deals page has discounts for other sites |
Cons: |
-No real images, just vidcaps (a fixed rate of 35 per shoot) which is disappointing
-Stories can drag for over 20 minutes, not everyone is patient enough for this no matter how good they are
-Questionable cinematography decisions with their close-ups, inclusions or exclusions, sometimes out of focus
-Believe it or not, some scenes have better stories than sex - trailers can overhype
-Depending on context, the instigator tends to be the better actor - reluctance is a skill talent often overlook
-Not sure about the “twists” lumped at the end of many videos, they distort how I feel about the scene
-Creampies are lacking, there needs to be more variation in finishes
-Thumbnails can be confusing in relation to how many talents are involved/will perform
-No info on model profiles
-No downloadable trailer previews, would be useful with these video lengths |
Bottom Line: |
Extra information:
No condoms (my preference)
Pure Taboo is the centrepiece at the prodigious Adult Time network and a site I’ve been eager to join thanks to their highly dramatic and robust trailers. They operate through a dark, creative, brooding slant on modern pornography that seeks to challenge the audience and push the envelope on society’s customs - no doubt answering many fantasies down the line. These guys have gained quite the following, the volume of engagement through comments and whatnot are telling of how successful their campaign has been. Every shoot warns viewers from the gate with a message advising viewer discretion. A feat followed from Pretty Dirty, its predecessor?
Bree Mills is Chief Creative Officer for Gamma Entertainment, a major player in today’s porn but this site right here is her prize. If I recall, she has dubbed Adult Time as the “Netflix of Porn” so this is the mainstage Netflix series’ equivalent in terms of pulling power. Bree explores a cluster of various taboo themes comprised of: stepfamily, cheating, coercion, pregnancy and futuristic – and she ropes all these ideas down with chunky stories before any explicit action unfolds.
Delving deeper, it’s a two-way street. Bree’s direction and vision only goes as far as the performers allow it, since they can quite literally make or break scenes. There’s an important ingredient that I like to call referential dialogue, often I find it pivotal on whether shoots blow you away or descend into bland, dreary slogfests. If the talent refers to the storyline throughout, even a bit, you’ll enjoy emphatic displays of exceptional pornography. But if it’s all just moaning and “yes”, it feels disenfranchised; story is evidently high on the pecking order at Pure Taboo, so it’s a let-down to see some talent lose track of the plotline during action. There are exceptions however, depending on context. Anyhow, commitment to the storyline should be a top priority here so I’m glad to say the majority fall on the right side of the coin. Bree has set a bar to mitigate these problems, because the stories are the best I’ve seen on any porn site.
On filmography. Stylistically speaking, Pure Taboo are unlike its contemporaries. Despite being a follow-up from Pretty Dirty, their execution has heavier undertones. The visuals here are often grey and bitter, laced with tremendous production value and cinematography. Dialling back on the saturation is effective considering the material. Sound plays a huge role in its faint, tense build-ups in the background. It makes for a more compelling watch, the sex becomes that more gratifying as a result.
Adult Time has adopted this Netflix format well as all the channels are labelled clearly with logos. You can filter through various tags and models across all channels or selected channels, you can even blacklist! It makes navigation a simple task.
Now, a few bones to pick. I’m not overly fond of what is captured onscreen - particularly during points of interest. For instance, sometimes they’d rather zoom in on the male facial expressions over an impressive deepthroat by the female. Or when there’s some dirty talk and they cut to a close-up of genitalia. Impact is lost in spots, close-ups are overdone for me and I’m left unsure of what’s being conveyed. Whole body shots where you see both talents going at it need more screen time, both facial expressions and dirty bits simultaneously - these cuts are way too short for my liking. There are also intermittent focusing issues.
While I praised the stories earlier, there is a downside. Their length: it can take a while before things kick into gear so sometimes it can get to you no matter how well done it is. We can’t all be in for the long haul, but ironically some of them are even better than the sex. Make of that what you will.
Moreover, there’s no dedicated photos - just vidcaps. While fellow folks at PU don’t mind, it’s a bit weak on their part for my liking. Despite their careful selection, vidcaps can’t match the depth and quality in actual photography. The photos could be edited up with the saturation the videos have and provide flavour other sites won’t. Even 30 images of dedicated photography would be much better than their current fixed 35 vidcap image rate.
Trailers are sometimes better than the scene, they’re highly dramatic so the hype can get to you. Plot twists at the end are also a thing here and are hit and miss, usually miss but I can ignore them.
That’s all there is to cover. Pure Taboo commands a lot of respect from me for their dazzling stories. But I’m not overly keen on the cinematography choices - I’m probably in the minority at that though. Regardless, I am a little disappointed. It comes down to taste at the end of the day. If you like porn with story behind it, this place is an automatic by any account.
PS. I got Adult Time through Pure Taboo. |

Story driven porn is unfortunately more of a rarity these days I find. I like letting the mind linger so I have no doubts I will enjoy the story and action. I still have some other sites in the pipeline though, so I'll get around in due time.

Apologies for misreading your reply. TBP still has value when it concerns factual nuggets and opinions here and there, but they do not match the depth and flavour PU reviews deliver. Do you think the TBP reviewers may catch wind of this review and reconsider their next review of Pure Taboo?

Very good review, maybe a little bit too much focus on TBP's review but informative and comprehensive nonetheless. This site has very much intrigued me the past month. I've seen some of the trailers and they look stellar. When I read the TBP review I was disappointed to read about the vidcaps but judging by the sound of your review perhaps they're not all that bad. I agree that the TBP review seems quite unusually pessimistic.
I'm very finicky when it comes to high scores but judging by the trailers this one stands a good chance of being up there. The only true way to know is to join; it'll be a while when I get around to this site, but when I do hopefully I will be as positive as you!

If I was ever going to join a gay site this one would be up there but after reading your review, I'm having second guesses. Thanks for writing this one up. I didn't realise how expensive this site would be and I also agree that it's a let down that you only get one site, despite the substantial amount of videos.

Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
|
Pros: |
+1080p available for every video, shows size of video downloads and other resolutions available as low as 360p
+Interracial content that has solid production behind it, delivering an experience in between hardcore and premium
+115 videos, 25-50 mins length each (35 mins average) a decent quantity
+Photos and vidcaps are downloadable in ZIPs which are also small in physical disk space = quick downloads
+Images are available in 1620x1080 which look good
+Decent storylines with effort
+Not many repeat performers means there’s an abundance of models here (though this doesn’t always work towards an advantage IMO)
+Favourite, like or dislike videos - build your own collection
+Comment on videos
+Follow feature for models
+Site has a modern, fresh and clean design
+Tags available are usable and disposable in that you can blacklist out content you don’t want while searching
+Excellent video preview system, pointing at the bottom of thumbnails will preview that part of the video |
Cons: |
-No 4K available at all as of March 2019
-No additional access to other sites
-Update schedule was every two weeks but last three shoots have been every three which is slow
-Misleading figures on the file size of video downloads, see bottom line
-Large watermark on videos, they should make it a bit smaller as it is a bit distracting
-Terrible pagination, they use an autoload feature but even switched off the experience is still shoddy and often I’m all over the place
-Models aren’t really that young and content doesn’t always reflect identity
-Some older image sets contain images only available in 900x600 which is pretty small
-Some videos are not tagged at all so searching will not return those shoots at all except using model names |
Bottom Line: |
Extra pros:
+Downloadable trailer previews
+100-250 images each shoot
Extra cons:
-No creampies?
-Sound can be poor
-Some scenes have too much close-up action and rubbish lighting
Extra information:
No condoms (my preference)
Disclaimer: please note that by "interracial" I am referring to black men and not black women, these are industry standard terms not my own.
Teens Love Black Cocks is under the TeamSkeet umbrella, one of the more popular networks these days so how has their journey been catering to the interracial niche with this site? Their labour bears fruit, well at least most of the time.
With over 100 videos of juicy interracial ventures, content is by no means scarce here and the production value is unsurprisingly very good. I’m liking the way everything is shot as it looks slick and clean, the storylines are okay and the photography looks sharp – it is clear to me at least that there has been effort gone into this. There are scenes with the usual cheating theme but I still enjoy them anyway. At the end of the day, I want to see hot chicks take black dicks and there’s certainly a decent amount of it here to go around with good quality control.
My issues with the video content are: (1) creampies, (2) sound, (3) no 4K, (4) large watermark, (5) some scenes have too much close-up action and (6) models not really being teens.
(1) I wish there were more creampies, I haven’t found one and if they are around they are too few and far between. I’m not saying there should be as much creampies as facials, but at least some would be nice.
(2) Some shoots are a bit quiet and canny, I had to turn the volume up quite a bit.
(3) A brand like TeamSkeet should have hopped onto the 4K wagon by now but I can’t speak for their other sites as I don’t use them, perhaps they have 4K there already. If they don’t have it, I think they have the facilities to do it, but maybe it’s not worth it for them. Who knows?
(4) An intrusive watermark is never a good sign. It stretches from the bottom right corner almost all the way to the center. Why not stick the TLBC logo on the bottom right instead? “TEENSLOVEBLACKCOCKS.COM” distracts from the experience in my opinion. I understand the importance of having watermarks and branding, but this is surely overkill.
(5) Some scenes on TLBC have too much close-up action, need to see more body than crops. Makes no sense to me why some scenes have these shots take up most of the video because you can’t really see the models all that well, subtracting from the overall experience. I’m not saying there should be no close-up action, the videos just need to be edited better and have different types of shots spread more evenly with one another. There’s also a few videos with rubbish lighting - more parallels with DarkX.
(6) Now onto the teen part and boy this is a long one. I don’t actually have an issue with using models that aren’t teens as they’re all hot but if you’re going to advertise yourself as such why not keep the criteria in check? Scenes like “Hubby Doesn’t Know” doesn’t make sense because that entails that the teen is married and without getting political here, teens don’t really get married at that age here. I have to question whether this “teens love” brand was a good idea because in hindsight perhaps they should have done “Girls Love Black Cocks” instead so they can bring over older talents and not box themselves in with this teen demographic, whilst still poking holes out of that very box like how I’ve mentioned above. They’d have a bigger talent pool to select from as well. Sorry if this is long-winded. I’d just think it would be better this way and yes I know they have other sites with the teen theme and perhaps they too are alike. Maybe I’m being naïve.
Phew, with that over let’s look at other pressing issues at hand. For starters, I’m going to have to dock some points for further slowing down an already slow schedule. It has gone from every two weeks, to every three. This means that long term subscriptions for keeping up with the latest content isn’t feasible and you’re better off downloading all the shoots in one month and returning a year later. Lack of demand or not, they’ve slowed it down even further.
On the site interface, it looks good and simple but there are pagination issues. The autoload feature isn’t great and I found myself stumbling on the same section despite being further down the page referring to the scroll bar on the right of the browser. Perhaps it isn’t Chrome friendly. Some videos also have no tags at all, which is unacceptable.
With wrong file sizes, this is very minor but on a “3.2GB” file what you really get is a 3GB file. I found this happening pretty consistently across the board but it’s nothing to worry about all that much.
Teens Love Black Cocks is a pretty good interracial site and I recommend it, but long term subscriptions not so much. |

Sad but very true on many walks of life.
Porn is particularly rampant with it though, it's hard enough to dodge all their bullets. The industry is suffering as it is thanks to tube sites and piracy but these methods will deter people even more from joining up - how ironic.
Their greed won't stop us from voicing our concerns though when it goes too far. This site has been growing very quickly since its conception years ago so anything to help others from getting unwanted charges is good enough for me.
Sometimes we have to take one for the team.

On TBP: "A monthly membership to TransAngels only includes streaming videos. You'll need to pay an extra $14.99/month to get downloads. Signing up to for 90-day or yearly plan, or switching to one of these multi-month options, will also provide access to downloads."
On RR: "Downloads are only included with a 90 or 365-day membership or a $14.99/month upgrade."
I purchased a "365-day membership" deal yesterday but didn't get downloads. Granted, the two reviews were published in May 2019. Either they got it wrong, or TransAngels have changed it since to make it even worse! I'm betting on the latter.
This is really unfortunate, as I relied on those two reviews but was - unintentionally - misguided by them. I use their reviews to avoid this annoying no downloads enclosed malpractice in the first place. I feel let down.
TransAngels or whoever run their multitude of sites have gotten greedier, for a "yearly download add-on" they like to label it they have the audacity to charge a sum similar to the initial price on top just for downloads! I was unusually angry and took this to support and asked why but to no avail, just "the way it is".
I managed to knock off 30 bucks off their "yearly downloads package" to agree a deal, though reluctantly.
I will make this apparent in my review once I've used the site enough, in any case I am still not happy about this at all as I was really looking forward to joining up. Still will be with them for a year, let's see how that goes.
Though getting 30 bucks off the downloads package has softened the blow, this blunder will certainly knock a good amount of points once I roll it out.

Could you try viewing it in a private internet window (or log out but that is much more cumbersome so no need) and see if Transsensual is listed on Mile High Media? Let me know if it is there or not.

Good review, I am particularly pleased to see you venture out and review this site even if the content does not necessarily appeal to you.
Does it really come with Mile High Media? Because on my end I don't see this site being listed as a bonus site on their page. I even got in touch with their support team and they also said Transsensual is a standalone site and doesn't come with Adult Time. Perhaps this is a package not available in the UK, of which if it is I am not happy about that at all.
In regards to Jessy Dubai and Aubrey Kate, those two are titans in the trans industry. Both are incredible performers.

I strongly disagree with you. Jimmy was not polite in his replies in virtually any capacity. There is a way to conduct feedback in a constructive manner. He told mbaya that "maybe he doesn't like Asians" and to not "pretend to be some objective observer just doing a public service". This is clearly condescending dialogue attempting to elicit a reaction. He asked whether exotics' review was a "late April Fool's joke"? How is he simply providing feedback and correcting misinformation? He is slipping in these types of comments in every other line. He also highlighted the score of exotics' review on multiple occasions as a "laughing stock". You say that mbaya was being pretentious when confronted about his error but you say that as if the webmaster was not pretentious in the first place. Two wrongs don't make a right though, so I will acknowledge that.
I understand that he is frustrated with the scores his site have received. No webmaster would react in rapture at all when greeted with such scores. He is also well within his rights to be unhappy should a reviewer get something factually wrong. It is his product and he is perfectly entitled to criticise. Yes, mbaya should have admitted when he said he does not frequent those tube sites. But the way the webmaster reacted is unacceptable in my opinion. He also went as far as to bring others from his site into the equation, which is against site rules.
I feel that the 99 score that came in some time ago was what pushed mbaya to do the review after a culmination of multiple reviews that seemed dubious and vague yet had very high scores. I do not feel it was a case of "discrediting" a specific review but to see if this site really is as good as all these reviews suggest.
Jimmy clearly dispensed with a constructive discussion and chose to opt for a points match, maybe a flame war. I'm not going to pretend that we were harmless in our discussion but for the most part the way we spoke did not warrant the level of malice the webmaster displayed. I know in my last reply that I gave in and it is a moment I am not proud of.
Just my two cents.

Status: |
Current Member for over 1 month (at the time of review).
|
Pros: |
+Substantial catalogue of around 600 videos
+Although filmed in 1280x720 the quality is crisp and more than sufficient
+Great video lengths ranging from 30+ minutes per shoot to sometimes an hour
+Fantastic download speeds
+Images are easily downloadable via zip, fairly good quality, also in folders which make for quick and easy transfers
+Ability to rate and comment on shoots
+Ability to favourite videos, build and browse your own "My Kink" library
+Ability to favourite models and can be notified as soon as they drop a shoot
+Ability to download specific scenes in a shoot, very useful if you’re interested in certain scenes and not others etc
+Search bar on top means you can search from any page quickly
+Shoots contain plenty of tags
+Scenes are well produced with unique, dynamic filming - sound is also great
+Great selection of models that are drop dead gorgeous and can generally act well
+Fills obscure niche where transsexuals dominate and almost always top the male |
Cons: |
-Update rates have slowed down to roughly two updates a month
-Though video lengths are great, a large amount is consumed by the storyline over actual sex anyway
-Low quantity of photos per shoot, 25-40 images which is much less than before, look like vidcaps so some are blurry
-Image zips are sometimes missing photos, look at image previews below the shoot and check if they're in the zip
-Confusing search interface, model index set up differently from search bar
-Site is occasionally glitchy
-Model profiles no longer show any stats like height or penis length as before
-Tagging system can be poor, tags like "creampie" are sometimes not used making fans miss out on rare content
-Doesn't mention bareback or condoms on tags, can't filter through either
-Reuses a lot of the same models
-Latest shoots (last six months) are a bit drab and mild, lacking ideas
-Scene download feature is pointless - more recent updates have two separate downloadable scenes compared to four to six before |
Bottom Line: |
Over the years, legendary TS Seduction have produced some of the best transsexual porn on the internet period, featuring storylines and scenes shot like no other. Elite, entertaining and sexy they’ve made it all. I have enjoyed many videos over the years and still do now. But, and it pains me to say this, it is very apparent right now that they are past their prime. Years ago they were bustling with amazing content left, right and centre but the update rates are beyond slow now. Two shoots a month doesn’t sound disastrous at first but then consider you get around 26 shoots a year then it starts to hit home. Update schedules play a significant role in determining the quality of a porn site and in TS Seduction’s case, this is the main culprit here and it will surely put off some newcomers. All my other issues pale in comparison to that one. There has been a lack of new models over the last year too so returning members won’t be blown away by anything fresh or exciting. I am also not impressed with some of their recent practices such as discontinuing model stats.
To conclude, I do recommend TS Seduction but only if you want to browse through their enormous library and stream/download older shoots. The current rollout isn’t like it was before, so memberships aren’t as appealing especially long term. Keep in mind how expensive the membership is as well, so getting other sites with the subscription is more invaluable than ever. |

This is a pretty good review, thanks for the heads up about saving favourites and categorisation. Disappointing to hear as the first part is essential in my books. I plan on trying this site out at some point in the future.
