    I honestly couldn't tell by most of these pictures; I'd have to meet all of them in person. I recognize about four of the individuals, I see that singer from Tokyo Hotel, as well as a local drag queen. Other than that, I'm drawing a blank..,

    You can number sequentially from left to right, top to bottom.

    For those who say you can differentiate a non-TS person from a TS person... this should be interesting to see how you categorize these individuals, which are all (or are they?) a mixture of women, men, TS, TV and a few ?? thrown in. Some you might know and thus be easy.

    No fair running to Google and searching through pictures... since you should be able to distinguish based upon looks alone. You're on your honor for this.

    Have at it. I theorize that most, especially those to whom this is directed, will refuse to answer citing some excuse. Let's see.

    To the moderators... these were all non-watermarked images that I manipulated only to make the sizes all similar. They were freely posted online at various public sites.
    I have not checked on Google -I recognise Jan Morris, April Ashey, LiaT and the other model Andreij something or other.

    My estimation is as follows:

    Frist Row, L-R
    TS-Female-TV-TV-TS-TS

    Second Row L-R
    TS-TV- TS (Jan Morris)- TS (April Ashley)- TS- TS

    Third Row L-R
    TS-TS-TS-TS-TS-TV

    Fourth Row L-R
    TS-TV-TV-TS-TV-TS-Ts

    Fifth Row L-R
    TS (Computerised image) -Female-TS-TV-TV

    The only ones that I can see who might have done porn are the two on the end of the first row.

    I'm sure there are times when we can't tell the difference from photos, but I'm not sure what that proves.

    I don't disagree, which is why those of us interested in real TS women depend on producers to present real TS women.
    Rather than go into it here, please read my LAST post in the other X-critic said. I ate Wheaties this morning so my brain was working. That is as clearly as I can state why it matters.

    Seanchai based his response of belongs or doesn't belong on a combination of attractiveness (which was excluded by the premise) and gender state, which is actually how a producer would make that choice. Of course, there will be overlap between what one producer finds attractive and what another finds unattractive, but why would any producer would feature TS purely on the basis of being TS?
    The premise here is just for the purposes of this exercise. Not what I really believe.

    OK... since now people are not following the directions (TWO VALID RESPONSES: BELONGS ... DOESN'T BELONG)

    and naming names, I revoke the $100.00 offer entirely. Sorry folks, but not fair to me since the more names that are actually mentioned the more you can actually just guess. Even at that though, based on current responses, I would give very minute chances of anyone getting 100%...

    Anyway, so far the answers have been pretty interesting. Anyway, I'll post the answers on the 2nd of January so you all can see how you did.

    As expected, those who have said they can distinguish (accurately or semi-accurately) have not decided to participate as of yet.

    I would be very interested in a short reason why (like Seanchai did) if you were willing?

    Thanks.

    Since the other thread is probably going to be locked or whatever, I'll post this here for you. Points 3 and 4... more 4.

    1. The owner has the right to feature whoever, whatever, and however he wants. I think you've already stated that is correct.

    2. The owner is not forcing a purchase. The consumer is making A CHOICE to purchase a product (inclusive of what is on the aforementioned tour). Sites are graphical and have tours. SMY (I use this site because it has been pretty much beaten up here as the example) happens to have one of the largest around which gives you a VERY SOLID, THOROUGH glimpse as to what you'll see there. Because the consumer has made a choice based upon an educated view of the site, subsequent expressions of dislike become less meaningful. Consumers vote with their dollars.

    3. It is a proven fact that the very definitions of TV and TS are open for discussion (as you put it, gray area). Thus, it is irrelevant as to what the OWNER DEFINES as TV or TS since the multitude of CONSUMERS will, in fact, have their own definitions of the terms that either will or won't agree with the owner's. That is the reason why a particular consumer (Franklin in this case), when making a distinct argument about "TVs do not belong on TS sites" MUST state a definition of the two terms. Otherwise the ENTIRE discussion is based upon speculation and individual interpretations.

    4. Once it has been established that the person judges TS status based upon looks alone (there is no other way to do so from pictures and a videos), then that person loses credibility to actually state what TS is, therefore the whole argument about who is TS and who is TV, is also invalid. Therefore the argument that TVs should not be featured on TS sites is also invalid, regardless of the owner's admission.

    I really cannot state it any clearer than that. I am open to friendly discussion as to where / why I am wrong.

    Yes but if they try to pass TV's and TS, people won't like it

    2. The owner is not forcing a purchase. The consumer is making A CHOICE to purchase a product (inclusive of what is on the aforementioned tour)

    Yes, but how can a consumer make the right choice when information is being mis-represented?

    3. It is a proven fact that the very definitions of TV and TS are open for discussion (as you put it, gray area).

    Wrong-A TV is a man with a fetish for dressing in women's clothes. A real TS is not. A real TS identifies herself as a woman and is perceived as such. Distinctive argument made.

    4. Once it has been established that the person judges TS status based upon looks alone (there is no other way to do so from pictures and a videos), then that person loses credibility to actually state what TS is, therefore the whole argument about who is TS and who is TV, is also invalid. Therefore the argument that TVs should not be featured on TS sites is also invalid, regardless of the owner's admission.

    First, a TV has no TS status. An analogy is me dressing in a NY Giant football uniform and claiming I have status as a professional football player just because I'm dressed like one. Second, I've stated what a TV vs. a TS is...it's not judged by looks alone and it's possible I will be fooled into thinking a TV model is TS.

    So, I can fool you into thinking I'm a pro football player because it's impossible for you to make the distinction on appearance alone...but that doesn't make it right for me to have a site dedicated to pro football players, have pics of people who aren't pros dressed as them, but claim that they are.


    I really cannot state it any clearer than that. I am open to friendly discussion as to where / why I am wrong.
    Your whole argument boils down to "since there isn't a consensus on the difference between TV and TS and you can't tell the difference from pics, I can have TV's on my TS site."

    I guess.

    Ok so in other words, only two would merit Belong and those are the two at the end of Row 1.
    The reason is simple enough, they probably look good with their clothes off, and both also look like they can get hard. This reveals that my preference is for fully functional ts rather than tv's.

    Porn is not directly related to democracy or equality as far as I can tell, everyone is not welcome, just as you would not want me in any of your films or photo-shoots, and that is not false modesty. Or maybe it also reveals how old-fashioned I am as I would not be interested in seeing the cast of Tod Browning's film Freaks in an orgy, allowing licence for the title of the film. Even tattoos are a turn off. This also suggests that there may be posters who would like to see Jan Morris or April Ashley in a porn shoot, on the other hand I am aware that there is a large audience for tv's on this board. Perhaps your survey is doomed for these reasons.
