    Default Why Is Shemale Porn So Expensive?

    Shemale Porn is the most expensive porn in America. $35 is now becoming the average cost for a one month membership from Strokers, Grooby, SMC, and TS Seduction. Most of these sites don't have discounts from porn review sites. $100 gets you 5 months from a SMC site and 3 months for a Grooby site. $69.99 gives you 3 months with Strokers. $150 gives you 5 months with Strokers. $169 a year for TS Seduction.

    Overall SMC isn't so bad. The sites or networks update everyday. Shemales.XXX by Grooby also updates everyday. Those are the only two that are reasonable.

    $80 to $100 will give me a one year membership to any straight porn site. The average one month membership is between $10 to $29.99 for exclusive sites.

    I do understand straight porn has a larger audience. Transsexual porn has a smaller pool. Transsexual porn's quality is not good enough to justified these prices. SMC has better quality than Strokers and Grooby, but Strokers and Grooby cost more in the long run(excluding one month memberships). TS Seduction has great quality but no way in hell $169 is worth a one year membership. Biological females cost more per scene than 99% of all transsexual performers. Straight porn has higher production values.

    Do you think the prices for transsexual porn is fair or unfair? Explain why

    I think you answered your own question "straight porn has a larger audience".
    Isn't gay porn even more expensive ?

    Supply and Demand? I think that if there were more sites that produced as much new content as sms,smc,and smy, that could give them a run for their money, they would be competitive and lower their prices. Unfortunately, a lot of the newer sites that opened up never updated regularly to make it competitive with those huge sites. Not only that, but SMC,SMY, amd SMS have been around for a long time. It would take some great marketing to get the new sites out there to compete. I really do hope that we get some competitors out there. It would get us more work and would be nice to see something different.

    Is it really more expensive ? I think it has more to do with the fact that porn is going cheaper & cheaper, basically free on the internet... maybe shemale porn resisted a little longer but i bet it won't last very long.

    Just looking at all of Kink.com's various sites, TsSeduction is as cheap a site as they offer. So most of their sites go for 14/month with a year's subscription but a few go higher. The ones that are higher seem to be the more rare fetish tastes: Pissing costs 25/month and Water Bondage goes for 30/month. And like someone already said the majority of Kink's gay sites are more expensive at 20/month.

    So this would suggest Cost = size of audience/niche + a gay premium.

    I have no Idea were you get your Stats. GG's make as little as half as much per scene as TS performers. Only the superstars and contract girls make more. And solo shoots are even less. Their is an abundance of GG's willing to either work or foray into the Adult industry for quick easy money. Their are a lot less TS in the greater population, then from that number the amount willing to work in the Adult Industry make it a very small talent pool indeed.

    I don't think "fair" or "unfair" has anything to do with the pricing of TS porn. I'm no expert though.
