INTRODUCTION
I’ve been waiting to review Frank’s Tgirl World for a while now and now that the site has had a major overhaul, I thought it would be the perfect time to take a second look. Actually, it’s more like the millionth look in my case since I’ve been a fan of the site for a while now. Frank’s Tgirl World is one of my favorite sites for a variety of different reasons but we’ll discuss that a little later further on in the review. For now, it’s worth mentioning that Frank’s Tgirl World is owned and operated by Grooby Productions, a company well known in the Shemale Porn Industry for creating and maintaining high quality Shemale sites. The face of Frank’s Tgirl World is famed Grooby photographer Frank, who has one of the best jobs in the world… seriously. So, let’s dive into Frank’s world for a minute or two and take a closer look at his site.

SITE DESIGN AND NAVIGATION
The new Frank’s Tgirl World, or Frank’s Tgirl World v2.0 as its been called, is a HUGE step up from the previous version of the site. Once past the obligatory Adult Warning page, you’re taken to the Introduction page which is short and sweet. A brief introduction from Frank, some thumbnails from the latest Transsexual Models featured on the site, and the sites current content statistics give you a nice feeling for Frank’s Tgirl World before you jump into the Tour. The color scheme is a subdued green which works really well with the tans, whites, and golds used as type. Navigation through the public areas is made fun with some great buttons depicting the suitcases that Frank takes with him on his world tours.

Speaking of tours, when you take the tour of Frank’s Tgirl World, you’ll be treated to some great Flash videos and pictures from some of the past few recent updates, and you’ll get a very good idea of the quality photography Frank is capable of and displays on the site. The site was very responsive and I did not encounter any broken links or faulty files. Preview movies downloaded quickly and were of sufficient quality to make me want to see more. I like the Member testimonials across the tops of the tour pages… here’s one that reads:

“7 years Frank! That’s how long I’ve been a Member. Am I the longest? Well it’s been worth every penny… here is to the next 7!” -Tiffany

MEMBERS AREA
Upon entering the Member Area of Frank’s Tgirl World, you’re greeted with the ‘Recent News’ from the site which includes portraits of the most recently featured models as well as a brief blurb written by Frank detailing the minutiae of being one of the best Transsexual photographers in the world. Oftentimes these blurbs are more comical than serious which is sort of Frank’s character. As a side note, I would definitely recommend reading Frank’s Official Travel Blog for more insight into his very busy world.

The Member’s area of Frank’s Tgirl World is perhaps the biggest beneficiary of the site overhaul. Where navigating around the old Frank’s was primarily done through individual galleries, which was a little tedious, now you can use a very powerful ‘Search’ feature to find the model you’re specifically looking for. Or, you can browse through the 700+ models on the site by flipping through thumb-nailed pictures of them until you find one you want to see more of. In fact, there are several different ways to get to the same content on the site so Members just need to pick the one they’re the most comfortable with and then thousands of Frank’s pictures and videos are right there at their fingertips.

Another cool feature of the site is the ‘My Portfolio’ section, where Members can add photo sets, videos, or models that they really like so they don’t have to go about trying to find them again when they log in next time. This feature may not seem like a big deal but when you’ve been a Member for 7 years like Tiffany, you’ll definitely collect some favorites that you’ll want to come back to time and time again.

PHOTO CONTENT
Photography is really what Frank’s Tgirl World excels at presenting. Plenty of sites have really beautiful Transsexual models but only a handful have the quality photographer that Frank is. Frank isn’t just some amateur or hobbyist, he’s an honest to goodness professionally trained photographer and he’s got the equipment to back it up. The bottom line here though is that Frank’s photography speaks for itself.

Frank has a great eye for lighting and composition and really knows how to make his models look their best. One thing you’ll immediately notice when you start browsing through the models on his site is that there aren’t too many of his models wearing bright, gaudy makeup or flashy outfits. I think Frank tends to rely on enhancing the natural beauty of his Transsexual models instead of placing a heavy emphasis on make-up and post-production airbrushing. Many of his photo sets are shot using natural lighting and these sets make for some truly great images.

As for the photos themselves, they’re arranged by model and all of a particular model’s content is readily available from a short Model Biography Page. You can choose to view the galleries as individual pictures or to download the entire gallery as a ZIP file for browsing on your home computer. Quality of the photo sets are very high and Frank’s Tgirl World has some of my favorite all time pictures of many of my favorite Shemale Pornstars.

VIDEO CONTENT
Frank’s Tgirl World is largely made up of ‘solo’ content, meaning that a majority of the pictures and videos are of just the model either masturbating or playing with toys. That’s not to say that Frank doesn’t feature some hardcore content every once in a while but it’s more then exception than the rule. That stated, video content on Frank’s Tgirl World is pretty damn hot and unless you’re joining a site specifically for the hardcore content, you won’t be disappointed. Frank’s experience as a photographer definitely translates well into videography as well. The same attention to lighting and clarity that he shows in his photographs is readily apparent in his videos. Videos can also be accessed through the Model’s Biography Page.

Frank’s Tgirl World has chosen to present files as WMV files for maximum playability. You can either choose to stream the video from your browser or else download it directly to your computer for viewing. Recent file sizes are very large, which is probably due to the advent of major sites like Frank’s shooting most of their video content in High Definition these days. However, despite the large file sizes, download speeds remained fairly quick. I was able to download at approximately 300-350 KB/sec. across the day for a variety of files. So, I would recommend finding a video to download and then ducking out for a quick cup of coffee or something while it downloads. Once it’s done, believe me, the video quality is definitely worth the wait!

JOINING FRANK’S TGIRL WORLD
Becoming a Member of Frank’s Tgirl World is $34.99 per 30 days access (recurring). You can also choose to become a Member for 90 days at $69.99 which yields significant savings. Now, relative to some other sites out there, this may seem a little high but you really have to keep in mind that Frank’s Tgirl World is high quality site with a TON of content. Additionally it is updated without fail each and every week and there are precious few other sites out there that have the variety and caliber Transsexual models that Frank is able to attract.

CONCLUSION AND SITE OVERVIEW
As I stated in the beginning of this Review, I’ve been a fan of Frank’s work for a long time now. The site is by far one of the best sites as far as variety and quality of photos goes. Frank’s Tgirl World is one of the few sites I turn to when I am looking for information on a particular model since almost every Transsexual model or Shemale Pornstar worth mentioning shoots for the site at one time or another. While not being what I would consider to be a ‘hardcore’ site, Frank’s offers plenty of other great content that Members are sure to enjoy for months, or even years evidently! The awesome thing about Frank’s, and my bottom line, is that you can count on Frank’s Tgirl World for QUALITY Shemale porn.

INTRODUCTION
Extreme Ladyboys underwent a fairly major redesign in April of 2009 and the results were fantastic! If you’re not familiar with the site, Extreme Ladyboys is a Ladyboy site that tends to focus on the ‘harder’ aspects of hardcore porn scenes such as gagging, cum facials, and general ‘rough’ sex. The site is the stomping grounds of Ladyboy afficionado, ‘Double O’ who, according to the site, ‘…has had his cock inside 1,000 of the world’s hottest Ladyboys.’ How’s that for a tough job! Extreme Ladyboys has captured plenty (and I mean) plenty of Double O’s escapades on film and as a Member, you get a front row seat to all the action!

SITE DESIGN AND NAVIGATION
As I stated above, the new design of Extreme Ladyboys is a huge improvement over the last design, containing new, modern design elements and layout structures. The first thing you’ll notice when visiting the site is the ‘edgy’ look to the site with plenty of hard angles in the design elements and pictures of stone, chains, and handcuffs adding a nice feel to the theme of the site. Little things like this may not seem like such a big deal but as you add them up, they each add just a little bit to the overall ‘immersion’ that a browser feels when visiting the site.

The Tour Area of Extreme Ladyboys is built right into the front page and features plenty of hot thumbnail pictures which would make even the most stoic Ladyboy Lover’s cock squirm in their pants. The site seems to respond very well to loading and looks increasingly amazing as you set your resolution higher (I used 1680×1050 and 1024×768 for review purposes).

MEMBER’S AREA
It’s nice to see that the same conscientious work that went into designing a great front (public) page for Extreme Ladyboys also carries through to the Member’s Area. I can’t tell you how many times I come across a beautiful front page only to find the Member’s Area cheap and uninviting. When I come across this I can’t help but feel a little bit ‘ripped off,’ so it’s nice to see a site follow things through all the way. The site does take a departure from the standard ways of navigating through a paysite via buttons clearly marked ‘Photos’ and ‘Videos’ and whatever else the site offers. However, after browsing the Member’s Area for just a few minutes I was able to get a good sense for the navigation which is both efficient and clever. I spent a good 10 minutes clicking on various links throughout the site and response was quick and I did not come across any broken or non-working links. Using Firefox 3.0, I discovered a small design flaw with a ‘Next’ button overlapping another element but I’m sure by the time this is published, the flaw will be fixed.

PHOTO CONTENT
Pictures in Extreme Ladyboys are high quality and well shot. Most photos are high resolution unless you delve way back into the 2006-2007 galleries where technology wasn’t really up to high resolution yet. The photographer(s) for Extreme Ladyboys knows his way around a camera and pictures were well lit, nicely framed, and downright HOT!

You can choose to view each photograph individually by following a thumbnail link, view the entire set as a slideshow (SWF), or download a ZIP file of the entire set. Each method has their pros and cons so it’s really up to the individual user to choose what best suits their situation. For some reason, my computer always hates SWF things and I was unable to get the slideshow to operate properly in either FF 3.0 or IE7. However, ZIP files downloaded quickly and the individual thumbnails were clear and easy to navigate.

VIDEO CONTENT
Extreme Ladyboys offers probably the largest variety of methods to watch a single movie that I’ve come across in some time. For one single movie you can either watch a Low Quality Video, download a High Quality Video, or watch selected scenes. You can also choose to watch a trailer of the movie which is a feature I enjoyed as even the Low Quality Videos average out at around 275MB – 300MB which can amount to quite a wait time if you have a slower connection to the Internet. And, although I appreciate what the site is trying to accomplish in offering so many ways to watch a movie (Members love choice!), it does tend to be a bit confusing at first.

As far as actual content goes, Extreme Ladyboys does deliver on the site’s namesake. I’m not sure why but most Ladyboy scenes for paysites tend to be pretty mellow when compared to say, Brazilian Shemale scenes which are typically pretty vocal and animated. Maybe its a cultural thing. Anyway, Extreme Ladyboys has gone to great lengths to insure that their movies are filled with plenty of ass stretching, throat gagging, vocal fucking, and just general perversion as possible… which should make viewers very happy. I love a little ‘edge’ to my porn and I love Asian Ladyboys so the videos on this site really got my blood pumping. Some videos are also accompanied by a ‘Behind The Scenes’ bonus video which are fun to watch.

JOINING EXTREME LADYBOYS
At the time of this writing, Extreme Ladyboys was running a special. Becoming a Member of Extreme Ladyboys also gave you the option of free access to another site in the ExoticGold network. Membership to Extreme Ladyboys begins at $39.95 for the first 30 days, and then automatically rebilling at $29.95 until cancelled. You may also choose a one time, single charge of $99.95 for 180 days access to the site.

CONCLUSION AND OVERVIEW
Extreme Ladyboys will make you very happy if you love Ladyboys and like porn with a little edge to it. Persons falling into that category will enjoy the hardcore scenes, roleplaying, and unique content that Extreme Ladyboys offers that is typically missing from other Ladyboy sites. Photos and Videos are both well shot and well presented. The site employs a great ‘Ratings System’ which Members can use to give feedback to the operators of the site regarding the models, photos, and videos. Members can also submit their own movie and photoshoot ideas for consideration (Keep Double O employed!).

My bottom line is that although the initial price of joining Extreme Ladyboys may cause you to pause, the site is excellent and if you join in April, you do get to choose another site free, which basically drops your price to a low $20.00 per site. And, after being a Member for 30 days, your rebill does occur at $29.95 which is very reasonable for the quality and quantity of the content on Extreme Ladyboys. So, take a little walk on the wild side and become a Member today!

INTRODUCTION
ShemaleJapan is a relatively new site on the blog as far as Asian Shemale paysites go, having opened its gates in the fourth quarter of 2008. That being said, the site has already gathered a massive and loyal following and it’s not hard to see why. ShemaleJapan is the brainchild of Adult Shemale Industry leader Grooby Productions and is the newest manifestation of the creative minds behind the Company. When I first heard rumors about this site begin to rumble around the Internet, I thought to myself, ‘I didn’t even think there were enough Shemales in Japan to create a whole site around.’ Boy, was I wrong!

If you’re not familiar with the term, ‘Newhalf,’ here’s a quick definition as you’ll be seeing the term used repeatedly in this review and on the ShemaleJapan website if you choose to visit. The term ‘Newhalf’ is a Japanese specific term that refers to genetic males who have chosen to, either mentally or physically, adopt the characteristics of genetic females. The term is used more as a slang term but [I don't think] is considered derogatory in the sense that a Western mind would consider it to be. Newhalf is a Japanese word and should not be used to describe Asian Shemales from other countries and ethic backgrounds, which typically have adopted the term ‘Ladyboy.’

While truly a civilized, technologically advanced, and industrial country in every sense of the words, Japan has remained a somewhat mysterious and enigmatic society to the Western World. Japanese tend to be secretive and elusive about things like sex and when you throw in the whole ‘Newhalf’ aspect into the mix, things only tend to get more secretive and more elusive. Type ‘Ladyboy’ into a major search engine and you’ll come up with over 5,000,000 entries. Type ‘Newhalf’ in and you get less than 820,000! Why has this beautiful and amazing sub-culture escaped notice for so long? Perhaps because there really wasn’t an English speaking site showcasing the beautiful Newhalf of Japan before ShemaleJapan came into the picture. So, let’s take a closer look into the site and see if we can help shed some light on these exotic beauties!

SITE DESIGN AND NAVIGATION
As the newest site in the Grooby Production portfolio, it would make sense that ShemaleJapan would have a more updated look and feel than the other Grooby sites (although I suspect they are all undergoing plans to be reworked). As one would expect, the site is set against a gorgeous, deep red background with hints of ‘The Land of the Rising Sun’ artwork mixed in at places. The color palette also includes oranges, greens, tans, and of course whites, which seem like an odd mixture when just read off as a list but flow together suprisingly well in the site. Having been designed to be viewed on the larger LCD monitors of today, ShemaleJapan will look best when viewed at resolutions higher than 1280×800. Anything less than that and the pictures and type will begin to look pixelated and detract from what should be an enjoyable viewing experience. Kudos to the designers of ShemaleJapan for being ‘fashion forward’ in their design elements.

ShemaleJapan is set up much like an intricate Blog with vertical columns containing the main content. This format should be a snap for frequent blog surfers to adapt to while users of more traditionally designed sites may find things a little confusing at first. It helps that all links are highlighted and most have color changing ‘hover’ codes written into them. The Tour Area of ShemaleJapan is built right into the design elements and flows from top to bottom with a fluidlike efficiency. I really like this new way of designing websites and it’s becoming more and more popular for a variety of adult paysites because it’s easy to use and navigate.

MEMBER’S AREA
Upon entering the Member’s Area of ShemaleJapan you’re greeted with the Latest News page which gives you some quick glaces at what is recently new to the site, and let me tell you, there is plenty happening at ShemaleJapan! If you’d like a little more ‘in depth’ feel for what is new on the site you can click the handy ‘Updates’ button at the top of the page which will bring up all the recent photo and video updates for the last couple of months. The Member’s Area is easy to navigate, well designed, and fully functional

PHOTO CONTENT
Photo Galleries in ShemaleJapan are arranged alphabetically by Model Name. This is a handy feature if you remember the name of the model you’re searching for but as it is fairly easy to mix up one Japanese name for another, you’ll probably just end up browsing through the thumbnails and clicking one a Newhalf who interests you. ShemaleJapan has some truly stunning models in its portfolio and I enjoyed reading the short biography pages of the models I looked further into. Galleries are also broken down into Solo, Hardcore, and a Uniform (cosplay) Section, which I think is a nice touch as the young Japanese crowd is fairly well known for their crazy and oftentimes sexy costumes and outfits

Photo quality is very good. It appears that the vast majority of the galleries are shot by a photographer known only as Hiro who definitely knows his way around a camera. Photos are well lit, clear, and well framed. You can either choose to view each photo individually via thumbnails or else download the entire gallery as a ZIP file to your computer. It’s got to be a tough life being this Hiro fellow… living in the hustle and bustle of Japan with your sole purpose being to search out and photograph gorgeous Newhalf beauties for the rest of the world to enjoy! How do I get that job?

VIDEO CONTENT
ShemaleJapan has amassed quite a collection of videos in the relatively short time it has existed on the Internet. What I think Members of the site will really enjoy is that each of the models is so different in appearance, style, and demeanor. It makes for some really great variety. I personally liked the video where the girls are dressed in different costumes… satisfies that pervy itch of mine

Videos can be downloaded as a 320×240 lower quality file or a 640×480 High Definition file. Both are WMV files. The high quality WMV files are beautiful when viewed on a higher resolution monitor so crank that video card up and if you have a fast connection, go for those! I was able to download videos consistently at an average of 1.5MB/sec which is pretty quick! Videos are a mixture of solo, hardcore, and gonzo style shoots although you’ll have to take a guess as to which is which since there is only a single thumbnail to guide you.

JOINING SHEMALE JAPAN
Becoming an educated Newhalf aficionado at ShemaleJapan is $34.99 (recurring) per 30-days of access and only $69.99 (recurring) for a full 90-days of access. Charges are processed via CCBill or Epoch. Both are standards in the industry for processing paysite transactions.

CONCLUSION AND SITE OVERVIEW
Let’s face it… Ladyboy sites are a dime a dozen. Don’t misunderstand me, there are some really good Asian Shemale sites out there but there are also some real dogs. And, Ladyboy content has been swapped and passed around some of these sites often enough that many have duplicate content. If you love the Asian Shemale look but are looking for content that is truly 100% exclusive, ShemaleJapan may be the answer for you! These Newhalf are honestly unlike anything you’ve ever seen or experienced, even if you’re already deep into Ladyboys.

ShemaleJapan is a site that brings something truly unique to the world of Shemale porn and I think its Members would agree that the site itself is something special. I can 100% guarantee you that you will not find similar content on any other English speaking site. Take a little adventure into the exotic and mysterious world of the Japanese Newhalf and have your eyes opened to a whole new culture!
