Pros: - Exclusive and non-exclusive content of transsexual models in mostly solo stripping and masturbation action but also POV sex.
- No DRM.
- Newest videos look decent at 1280 X 720 at ~4,250 kbps. Videos usually downgrade around 2007 and the years before to 640 X 480 or lower. However, one scene is re-encoded every week to look better.
- Photos are well done around 1280 X 800 resolution. They are all available via zip format or in-browser viewer.
- Site design and navigation are quality. Everything is easy to find and easy on the eyes. No broken links and file names are relevant to the video or photo downloads.
- Updates once a week with about 4 to 5 video and photo sets but also a scene from other Grooby sites. Plus, the re-encoded video is updated once a week as well.
- Model index with search options is a great attribute to the site. Also, a tagging system is in place for users to add their own tags for scenes.
- There is a site forum for questions, concerns, or general chat.
Cons: - Extremely slow download speeds at any time of the day. I was averaging around 350 kbps when downloading one file and even slower if downloading more the one. It's obvious that there is a cap set at 350.
- Remember the site name when joining this site. Meaning, the site is Franks personal site and is really catering to his own escapades. While the users are taken in to consideration, the style of the scenes tend to be for his own personal experiences.
- Updating the way it does on one day may eliminate a user from not receiving a whole week of updates if they only signed up for one month.
- Photography is well done but the resolution is a bit small for 2011.
- Updating scheme may bother some but is in accordance to all Grooby sites (more in bottom line).
- A bit on the expensive side at $35. However, I believe the reasoning is that TS porn is considered a specialized niche so take it as you want.
Bottom Line: Frank's TGirl World is a transsexual site catering to showcasing the escapades of the site's owner, Frank. He is the cameraman, photographer, and I think editor for the site. Therefore, one better like his style before joining which I will explain later. In addition, the model list has become quite extensive over time and some are exclusive to his site only but many are showcased on the other Grooby specialty sites or other company sites. Basically, think of this site as a mash up of transsexuals from all over the world featuring only Frank and the model in sessions.

This brings me to what is in the scenes. Usually, the first update of a model consists of a scene with a small interview or random questions. However, a language barrier is usually present with the Thai Ladyboys or the South American models. Take it for what it is. Then, the model will strip and various sections including positions of the body will be showcased with long shots and close ups. However, a common turn off (or turn on?) is that he has a groping problem. Frank has a tendency to want to grab a body part while holding the camera which reinforces that the scenes are made for his pleasure. Plus, sometimes you can even see Frank in a mirror. But, these acts have cut back in comparison to the older content but can still be prevalent. Anyways, after some stripping and body shots in various ways, the model is usually given a dildo of some sort and masturbates with it until the end, with no cumshot for the conclusion. But, sometimes some POV sex is involved but this content is usually within the next update. There is always a photo set with the same outfit and most of the content matching this scene as well.

This brings me to the second update of a model if there is one which 90% (maybe more) of the time there is. The second update is usually in a different setting and outfit. The start usually consists of a model stripping just like the first update. Then, the model will once again have her body showcased in various shots and positions. However, after this, the model will usually masturbate without a dildo or be shot in a extremely poorly edited hardcore POV scene with Frank. To clarify 'poorly edited', I mean it is not a true hardcore scene. You get some random positions for like a minute, then cut to another, then maybe another. Meaning, it is not a true and lightly edited hardcore scene but just random shots of some blowjobs or penetration in various positions for a short while. However, these scenes usually always end with a cumshot by the model and mostly all will feature various camera angles and/or positions. This is a nice touch and I commend Frank for these shots. But, these cumshots are usually edited in very quick at the end and the actual masturbation may only be prevalent for a few moments before the cumshot. So, no build up may occur to the conclusion which can hurt the sensuality of the scene. Also, each one of these updates has a matching photo set as well. So, if a model has updates after these two, the new updates will follow this same format again. Meaning, maybe the first updates of a model was in 2007. So, in 2010, the same update scheme would be used again.

So, each scene usually follows a format. But, each scene with different models at least change in appearance with locations and outfits. Many are in just a hotel room (mostly the Thai updates) but that is standard. But, the technical aspects are usually very good. Lighting is well done and the right shots are taken. It's the editing that irks me and the personal touch Frank takes when creating a scene. But, many may find this style to be what they want so I have to take that in to consideration. Just be clear before you join that that is what you get.

I kind of went in to this site thinking the model index Frank would be taking the 'cream of the crop' from all the other Grooby sites but this is not always the case. While I believe he usually picks the models from the other sites that are more 'promising', he also finds some his self and showcases them. However, when it comes to the 'World' part, the models are primarily from South America and Thailand. The North American and European (or other parts) models are definitely in the minority. So, if you like the look of the models from these locations, then you will like the site's model index.

Overall, the site to me is seen as pretty standard. Frank picks some really sexy models to shoot but flaws the scenes with quick editing, groping, talking, and not a large variety in world location for models as advertised. However, the shots are nice, well lit, include gorgeous models, different camera angles for certain shots, and lots of updates. So, it is all about weighing your options before joining the site. If one likes POV style hardcore shots, a personal edge to the scenes, South American and Thai models, the update scheme while not minding slower downloads and/or wishy washy edits then the site will cater to you.

messmer (Disabled) My biggest beef was the positioning of the models against bright backgrounds like windows, for instance. I also found that a lot of the videos had sound problems. Excellent review, btw.

One question for you - not necessarily about this specific site but more about the niche itself. I'm not really into TS stuff so this might only be my perception rather than reality. Most of the TS stuff I've seen, and it isn't much I admit, has South / Central American models. I'm aware that this is also a big thing in Thailand and you note that there are a lot of Thai models on this site too. My question is this: are there North American and European TS models too? I don't think I've ever seen any. Do you think there is a reason that most of the models are South / Central American and Thai?

Just wondering... and this may be a question better posted on the forum but I thought if you have an interest in this niche you may have some thoughts on it.

Thanks

rearadmiral (0) Sorry to be a pest, but after checking out the site I see that they do have some models from around the globe, but it still seems that models from anywhere but South and Central America and Thailand are more rare. Is this really the case?

I know that your question was not addressed to me, rearadmiral, but it is my belief that many of the North American / European trannies are too big boned to sustain the illusion that they are girls. That is why Thai models especially are preferred. They can be so convincing that they've made me doubt my sexual orientation at times.

That's an excellent point messmer. Having feminine stature obviously plays into the whole thing. I remember one of the first TS scenes I saw was with a Brazilian girl named Thays Schiavinato in a movie titled She's Got Balls." I can't claim that I was duped into seeing this because I downloaded it from Videobox and it was classified as a TS movie, and the title should have been a bit of a hint. But from the screencaps the model looked hot so I downloaded it. And damn is she hot! Sure, she's got a bit of a medically induced downstairs mix-up going on, but if I said 'nope... never in a million years' I'd be lying.

I can, however, claim to actually have been duped into renting a TS DVD once. I was (and still am) a fan of a lot of Joey Silvera's work. I saw a new DVD series titled "Joey Silvera's Rogue Adventures" and rented it on the strength that many titles from his "Fashion Sluts" line and "Buttrow" series are among my all-time favourites. I was a bit disappointed. And a bit frightened. None of these chicks looked like the lovely Thays.

So the physical size thing is probably the number one reason why things are as they are. Not many guys would be turned on by a TS who was 6'4", 240lbs with big hands.

Hi rearadmiral, statistically you are probably right but I can guarantee you that there are still quite a few gorgeous slim European TGirls to be found.

It isn't a niche I'm really into, but I might look around a bit on TBP to check for some variety. Variety is, as we're told, the spice of life!

messmer! Since when did you stray in to the TS niche?? lol :) I never knew you had any interest in these models. I'm interested in what you think of the niche? I always knew we both had a thing for older aged models but I never really knew you liked the TS stuff. I'd be delighted to talk about some things if you like.

As far as the sound goes, yeah the videos do get degraded around 2007 and I find a lot of technical things wrong with these videos. I did not have much issues with sound from the recent videos but I may have missed some because I rarely get a chance to play sound because of others in the household. This is a great thing to mention for others though in case they are interested because if you are in to sound, then having problems with it is unacceptable!

Thanks for the feedback as well, I appreciate any compliments from you buddy!

I can answer your question, rearadmiral. In Thailand, the culture surrounding 'The Third Sex' AKA Transsexuals is much more accepting. There are large sections in Bangkok and Pattaya that include strips in red light districts that are Transsexual themed bars. So, many work at these bars and usually escort from there as well as a means to get money for their transition. With that said, the stigma is not as existent in their society so many are accepted as who they are. Therefore, Thailand is kind of a 'safe haven' for Transsexuals because not only can they make money but be accepted a lot easier too. Of course, not all work in these bars and if they don't, they can find more legitimate jobs and 'blend in' easier because of acceptance. On a side not, I've heard that some of the most prestigious plastic surgeons reside and work out of Thailand that do boob and SRS surgery and it can clearly be seen in the models from there.

When it comes to South America, it is very similar to Thailand. Especially in Brazil and I think Argentina is more tolerant as well. I do know Brazil is very accepting of Transsexuals and Gay culture. Therefore, this makes the people who want to transition easier to do because the worries of harassment and/or physical harm will be lessened. Think of it this way, it's much easier for a man or women to be openly gay in San Fransisco right? Think of it as the same for these areas, hence the more Transsexual in those areas.

However, to elaborate, there is plenty of Transsexuals from the USA, Canada, Japan, Philippines, and Europe (and I'm sure other parts of the world too). But, they are probably significantly less than in the areas mentioned before. I'm speculating, but I'm guessing with more stigma attached to being a Transsexual in those areas and acceptance, many would rather not model for a site in fear or other reasons because of being known or 'caught'. While I'm guessing about this, I do know cultures of the USA, Canada, and most of Europe are less accepting of Transsexuals. However, there are sites that are geared to TS models from the USA/Canada in Shemale Yum and Shemale Strokers. There are models from other parts but the majority of the models on those sites are North American.

Hope that helps your question, thanks for the feedback and positivity!

That certainly does answer my questions. Thanks for being so thorough. I'd like to think that I wasn't being willfully blind to the TS sub-culture in Thailand and Brazil, but I honestly wasn't aware that those cultures were so accepting of LGBT people. I guess it was just too easy to assume that all cultures are as homophobic as what I'm used to. I'm happy to learn how wrong I was.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.

Don't be concerned that your answer was long. I appreciated all the information since this is a niche i don't know much about. I like most porn, so I enjoy discussing it all too. Just one warning - as you can probably tell from my questions, I don't have a lot of knowledge of this particular niche so I might come across as a bit uninformed. If anyone here were looking to dip their toe in this niche, is there a site you'd recommend?

Surprised you, didn't I, GCode? My first exposure to TS came when I subscribed to 21Sextury and found the Thai models so charming (in a now dead site) that I forgot that they were not yet real women. I have read up on the subject in the meantime and see them not as men trying to be women but as women born in a man's body. That's why I had no problem subscribing to Frank's site for a month. However I still have some inner conflicts when it comes to Transsexual Porn material if the TS plays the aggressor to another male .. then it becomes gay material to me. And that's something I am not interested in.

Yes you did! I have to admit my favorite models come from Thailand and Japan when it comes to TS models. The aggressor thing u speak of is called a 'top' in the gay or TS world. It basically means they only give sex and do not receive. I find that most Thai models tend to be 'bottoms' (receive sex) but American and South American seem to have more tops. I mean this when it comes to TS and a male having sex. I'm not really a huge fan of any hardcore TS porn involving a Transsexual and a male. No way if the TS is giving it to the male and even if the TS is receiving from the male. I've just never really liked it. I'm really just in to the solo stuff..I guess you could say I'm the same way as it feels different for me...I don't want to say 'wrong' cause that's the wrong word (no pun intended). I just can't think of a term to describe the feeling. I've always considered TS material as a fetish for me, I really cannot see myself in real life going through with a sexual encounter with one and I still find myself attracted to females and their figures. I guess you could say my favorite TS models are 'ultra-feminine' looking ones, so I guess that plays a part of my heterosexuality. I still cannot explain it though when it goes 'downstairs though'...It's too difficult to explain!

Anyways, if you are still interested in delving in to some TS material, I can try to sway u in a direction..I know it may have just been a brief moment interest but I am definitely surprised you enjoyed any material in this realm :O It's cool though, like you say, us humans can really surprise anyone and themselves when it comes to things they are attracted to sexually... :)

Honestly, if I were just trying out this stuff I would recommend a Thai ladyboy site such as Shemale.asia (Ladyboy 69) or Ladyboy Ladyboy. Like Messmer said, the asian shemales tend to look more feminine and they are my favorite. This site, Franks, has a nice mix of models so it's a good place to get your toes wet. But, if you are looking for less asian or less of a mix in ethnicity, I would think Shemale Club or Brazilian Transsexuals would be better. Just like sites without shemales, it's all about what u like...solo or hardcore, mix, type of models, yadda yadda...you know the drill :)

If you or anyone is interested in more sites, you or they can always drop me an email...I don't mind :)

Thanks for the information and thanks for the offer. I might take the plunge someday. And it would probably be Asian as they are definitely more feminine.
