Pros: |
+ Absoutely massive site with masses of content
+ A lot of pretty unique and original concepts and ideas; a lot of effort goes into these videos
+ Bills with CCBill plus many other payments options
+ No DRM
+ No download limits
+ Very regular updates |
Cons: |
- Movies are broken up into several scenes - would be nice to be able to download whole movies
- Men sometimes have their faces covered (though this is common for such sites, and probaby not such an issue for many users)
- Site is rather overwhelming - design quite old-fashioned and cluttered
- Search function quite limited
- No rating system or opportunity for comments/feedback/suggestions. |
Bottom Line: |
Before I begin my review it's probably only fair to say I am probably not their typical customer as a gay man, so this is very much my perspective on the site and some of the issues I raise may not be such an issue for others.
Still, I love femdom as I guess I get to see genuinely straight or bi men being humiliated - many sites aimed at gay men try for this but the actors are often really gay and it shows, or there's a limit to what the straight models will do.
This is a massive site - it's been around for a long time and it updates very regularly, so there's masses of content. It's split up into quite creative sections, such as the dungeon etc. but the overall site design is quite old-fashioned and a little chaotic. It's by no means the worst I've ever seen, but with the amount of content they have it would be good if they could have a simpler, cleaner design.
The search functionality is also quite limited, mainly clicking on keywords etc.
The action though is what is important and that's where this site truly delivers. There's an astonishing range of action here - realistic roleplay, lots of outdoor scenes which are still well-shot with good audio, very imaginative scenarios (such as the world being taken over by women and men kept in cages and used for milking/breeding purposes!).
Every fetish you could want is catered for - ballbusting, milking, whipping, forced bi, cross-dressing, strap-on fucking, cages, piss... the list truly is endless. This is a pretty hardcore site, so although there is some softer content it's not a light humiliation site - be sure you're into full BDSM before joining to get the most of this site.
From my perspective I am always disappointed when the men have hoods on which hide their faces. I admit this is partially because I'm gay and so the focus is on the men rather than the women and that this won't be the case for many readers, who will focus on the women. I also understand that many of the male models will only do this type of porn with their faces covered, and they do actually have a few more brave models who will reveal their faces than some sites which have almost none.
Still, I would say that even for the non-gay viewer it's hot to see the expressions on the guys faces as they take their punishment, so I do feel the masks take away from the action somewhat.
The forced bi stuff is quite tame, with condoms used even for oral, and a lot of cross-dressing which isn't to my personal taste, but again that's probably not such an issue for some viewers.
Downloads were reasonably speedy, and you can choose from WMV or MP4 formats. Older content is, as you'd expect, not quite up to the same quality but recent stuff I found pretty good - I was impressed that even outdoor-filmed scenes, which often have sound issues, were pretty clear.
Resolution of 1280 x 720 is available on the newer videos, 1700k for WMV and 1300k for MP4.
If the site design was improved, you could download whole movies and the male actors would be persuaded to take their masks off, this site would be perfect.
As it is it's a damn good site - $34.95 recurring (why pay for non-recurring at $39.95 when you know you can cancel right away and still get access for a month with CCBill) is a little above average but it's more than fair for the sheer amount of content here, with no DRM or download limits.
I hope they get braver male models in future and experiment more with forced bi without cross-dressing and push the models a little further, such as fucking, and maybe a forum or some sort of feedback system would be good too, but it's still a hot and unique site I'd thoroughly recommend and will join again. |
