    Taking feedback is very much a double edged sword, especially if you have no real metrics to go by.

    Let's assume Tomcat makes enough money so as to keep his studios running and turn enough profit, since that's how it looks from the outside...obviously what that means is that he has a pretty good (not perfect) idea of what the people who actually buy his product are looking for.

    Now he starts taking feedback from a whole bunch of people without even knowing if they're actually buying what he puts out or worse, if they ever would or could...so he listens to them and risks ending up alienating the people who are spending.

    Now, what do these people want? Big dicks, small dicks, white girls, black girls, etc etc etc...the list is endless when it comes to sex and there's no way keep all these people satisfied.

    Kink.com somehow manages to make some very hot concepts completely un-sexy. But you can say that about the majority of porn. And those interviews... Talk about cold water. What are they for? To avoid lawsuits?

    They offer people the option of just buying a scene and if they did TS on TS scenes I guarantee you I'd buy that scene.

    As a frequent member of both TS Seduction and TS Pussyhunters, I would have to say as a director Tomcat does have his flaws.

    While a majority of the videos on both sites have always had great action in them and the girls have always looked phenomenal in them, sometimes they have suffered from poor editing and/or have sounded poorly. Or where you can clearly hear TomCat's voice giving direction, which kind ruins the fantasy that is being played out in the scene.

    Then there are ones that due to a performer's ability to maintain erection or just a plain old bad performance, should have ended sooner rather than later. Which brings me to my next point.

    Then there are the videos that make you think, "why the hell would they continue filming this scene and/or even release it. The scenes where you can tell there is no chemistry between the performers. Where you're watching two people fuck in complete and utter silence. Not because they're into each other. But more because they're either bored, feel like they have better things to do, or just there to collect a paycheck.

    I also have to agree with Franklin on a couple of things. I miss the whole seduction theme of the older scenes. Where there male character is surprised to find out that the woman has a cock. While I do understand the negative connotations that scenario can have in real life, I still find the fantasy of it appealing. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only guy who feels that way.

    I also agree with Franklin's point about the lack of white women on TS Seduction. If a person had know prior knowledge of the site and joined it for the first time today, he would probably think theme was about dominating ethnic transsexuals.

    While many of those of girls are on my top ten list of best TS Seduction performers, I want to see more of Tyra Scott, Kendra Sinclare, and while I know she just had a scene released a month ago, Aubrey Kate in action. Not to mention Joanna Jet and a few others who I'm sure would be great on the site.

    Finally, while I totally support TomCat's decision to remove negative comments about the performers' physical appearance from the comments section, I do think he should listen to some negative feedback about the videos themselves. You can't look at every scene through rose colored glasses. You don't have to listen to and take all of the feedback. But if you notice a running trend among the complaints you may want think your members maybe onto something.

    Exactly. Nobody can claim after the fact they were coerced or done anything they didn't want to.

    this is perhaps the perfect way to critique a website or director. Franklin's stupid ass should take some notes. kudos to you sir.

    People are currently asking him to shoot it. He won't do it. He's playing dumb in the request topic suggesting two TS women and a guy instead of giving people what they want.

    There is no correct way to critique a website or director. It's funny that you this because he agreed with some of my points.

    This type of thinking works in straight porn because if you're making money, then you're doing something right. There is plenty of competition in straight porn. However, there is not any true competition in TS porn because there are not too many companies that shoot TS porn. Devil's Films shoots TS porn, but does not release it on a monthly basis. Reality Junkies need a new director for its TS porn. Shemale Strokers has nearly fallen off the map. Evil Angel, SMC, Kink, and Grooby are the big boys in the yard.

    Kink has the best production in TS porn and that's what lures some members to the site. It's kinda Brazzers. People say "Oh it looks good" ,but then say the performances were bad.

    They can be very successful with little to no competition in TS fucking women and men niche. Grooby, SMC, and Evil Angel shoot these types of scenes. However, they don't release as consistently as Kink's TS Seduction and TS Pussy Hunters.

    I 100% agree with everything you said. I mention the same lack of chemistry about Aubrey Kate's stepsister scene. The concept is freaking fantastic. You have a sexy stepsister and you don't know that she is really a T-Girl! We don't see that in everyday TS porn. However, the scene totally sucked for two reasons. The seduction was not there. Aubrey shared zero chemistry with the guy. They were in utter silence and I heard Tomcat's voice telling them to speak and moan.

    The camera man is responsible for editing the scene and taking out Tomcat's voice (from what I've heard). The director directs, the camera man shoots and edits, the lighting team lights, ect...

    Also, why do you say that Shemale Strokers has nearly fallen off the map?

    Shemale Strokers has been very bad this year. In the past I only joined the site for its hardcore content. Its first hardcore for 2014 was finally released this year and is a bad pairing in my opinion. Strokers use to have 5 to 6 hardcore scenes a year and now it has little to nothing. Karabella (pre boob job) has a scene topping a guy on the site.

    The solo content doesn't look good. I normally just download the picture sets. The girls' makeup is horrible in so many shots. Some of the shots don't do any justice for girls.
