AMA - Steven Grooby (Ask Me Anything)

[Nick Danger]

i know you want steven's opinion, but almost every woman, even the most militant feminist, wouldn't mind a multimillionaire sweeping them off their feet irrespective of their birth gender. in the end, most girls would be happy to finally accept themselves (i.e. be comfortable in their own skin) and have someone that loves them for who they are, not what they have.

Well I appreciate the reply, Cereal. But I think the situation with t-girls is different than that with genetic girls. T-girls are a private pleasure. I can't speak for anyone else, but for myself, I live in a very conservative area - southern Utah. Not only would I never talk about my love for t-girls around here, I'd be SHOCKED beyond belief if anyone else did. It'd be a career killer here.

So sure, everyone wants someone who will love them for who they are. But if some ultra-rich guy has a totally "normal" sexual outlook and is only interested in genetic women, he can play the field indefinitely and publicly, until he finds the one he's looking for. On the other hand, that same man might be committing financial suicide if he's seen in public dating t-girls, no matter what the law says, and no matter if the majority of regular citizens think it's just fine. There's always that type of person looking to bring the other guy down for his own benefit, and the press is always looking to help.

So a guy like that is relegated to satisfying his desires via t-girl porn (okay, it's been a while since I've been on this site - some perusing has enlightened me that "shemale" is no longer a desired terminology; hereafter I won't use it anymore). And he sees a t-girl he wants to get to know better, so he discreetly enlists her services for money, then falls in love, then decides something along the lines of, "I'll take care of you, but no more porn or prostitution."

Just saying, I've seen a lot of the higher-end t-girls disappear from porn at the height of their fame and loveliness. And I wonder if that's what happened to them.

I'm asking Steven the question because, first of all, it's a rare opportunity to do so, and secondly, him being in the business, if this does happen I'm sure he has seen it happen. And if it's commonplace I think he'd know that as well.

Hi Steven I have a question. Thank you for this platform. I hope it hasn't been asked. If it hasn't I hope I get an answer.

Question: In your opinion why do the black GG's not work/shoot with the black TS'? Most of the black GG's I've come across in scenes are doing interracial or non black on black scenes. There's almost little to none.

Is it a complex of some sort within the industry among the ebony/trans workers?

Thanks

Hi
I don't know if the black GG's do not work/shoot with the black TS models? Where do you get that information from? I think you may be making an assumption because you haven't seen that much girl on girl involving both black non-trans and trans girls? I think the easier explanation is that it just doesn't get shot often because there isn't a huge call/market for it. Our research/feedback on black girl on girl (trnas or non-trans), is that it doesn't sell as well as black girls with guys.

There are a few black models working in this niche (Daisy Ducati).

These girls seem to have an uncertain future with death announcements far too common. What does it take for a girl to be "doing ok" once their looks fade and they retire as a sex worker? One rarely sees 50+ year old Tgirls. Do they find work, save enough to retire, or is finding a husband their primary way to financial security. It seems many Tgirls choose to burn bright in their youth spending money on bodywork with little regard to their future and I worry about them.

Husbands/partners, own their own businesses, go to work in related or non-related fields, live with family. Not much different from anyone who moves on from the adult work.

Are you planning anything with Danielle Lace in the near future?

Steven, I have a question that you can probably answer, that has been on my mind for about 20 years now.

I have a theory. I think that when t-girls retire, or are simply no longer making videos, that they have been married-up by some rich guy. Furthermore, my theory is that many of these t-girls - the hotter ones mainly - are merely doing porn as a form of advertisement; that what they are really after is to stimulate the libido of some multi-millionaire who will, I dunno, contact them out of nowhere and invite them into a full-time gig as some kind of paramour or wife.

The reason I think this is that if I were incredibly wealthy (I should clarify that I am not UN-wealthy but certainly not in a position to guarantee someone's future), that is probably what I would do.

So to put this into the form of a question, does this happen? If so, is it common, or even standard operating procedure? I mean, yes, we get the hottest girls from Grooby sites, but frequently they go away and one is left to wonder if some rich admirer has taken them "off the market," so to speak. I ask this with the least intent to offend possible.

It's a theory but I don't think it's particularly correct. I think there are many girls both trans and non-trans, adult industry and non-adult industry, who would like that ultimate prize - but it's not exclusive or why trans girls go into the adult industry. Many go into the adult industry to raise their profile for escorting (a well know 'star' can charge more than a not well known one).

They go away for various reasons, many just find that working in adult sites doesn't pay the rent and when the excitement of doing them wears off, drift elsewhere - often with partners who don't want them performing, but not necessarily rich ones.

Nothing in the pipeline that I know about.

I'm sure it does happen - but it's not the 'norm'. I think you're projecting and making some bigger assumptions based on the environment that you live in. There are relatively small numbers of trans girls (which is why they are called unicorns) and a relatively larger number of interested men, many who come from cities, areas, and confidence to live their lives, regardless of what the neighbour might think (most of them don't really care one way or the other).

[Nick Danger]

Thank you Steven. Your answer satisfies my curiosity. Very nice of you to take your time to do this AMA. And you're right about my environment - if t-girls are "unicorns" in other areas, in mine (southern Utah) they are...well, is there something rarer than unicorns? I know - unicorn eggs.

Interesting but not overly surprising. The LDS church is quite oppressive, much moreso than any other church to which I've been exposed. Utah has the highest suicide rate among women of any state, and one of the highest runaway rates among teens, but these things are never addressed, merely brushed off as "God's will." Pretty much any choice a person makes that violates Mormon doctrine (which doesn't take much) means being ostracized by the entire community - a practice that is not only condoned, but in fact demanded by the church. I'm not a Mormon or an ex-Mormon BTW, just a transplant. This is a beautiful state, filled with prosperous but religiously-oppressed people.
