I'm over 30, so I'm on the side of the bush league. I much prefer if it's trimmed, but I'll take one untrimmed over a bald one. I find
it a little distracting to see the razor rash.

GCode, “Me thinks he doth protest too much.” [William Shakespeare]
Me, I just left it at "sexual attraction can be really weird."
So I know I'm straight. How about you? (Lol).
Actually, way back when, you didn't need she-males for this confusion. There were guys dressed as females that were supposed to be very attractive. There was some club in San Francisco that was famous for this type of show, but I never saw any show like this.

Gcode,
What you are seeing is most likely because the sites with photo shoots and videos in the same setting and clothes are exclusive to their site. I'm not positive on how sites go about booking these models, if it is an per hour basis or per shoot basis. I know that the site ATK Premium has a lot of behind of the scenes videos that are actually pretty good about explaining how they do their shoots. The model could have say 5 outfits there, usually brought from their own closets/homes and they in turn will shoot 5 different sets, one for each outfit. I've seen Eve Angel complain several times that her members on her old site were wanting new outfits in every set. A problem for her since she had over 250 sets on that site. She was really joking about it more than anything, even saying she had started making her own clothes and jewelry since the stores didn't have anything different than what she already had.
I might be able to help in one way and that is to say don't necessarily look for sites that have 100% exclusive content. This will get you more photo sets that are in different outfits than the videos. Take a look sometime at Eve Angel's old site. Every outfit and setting had a photo set and video set. Where as on say Twistys, I don't think any of her videos have the same outfits as her picture sets on there. And they have 53 picture sets and 10 videos of her, but none are the same outfit/setting.
There is a downfall to exclusive content and it goes into cost for the site more than anything. I think the reason that Panther and I responded to the exclusive part is because we are probably using the word differently than you are. Generally speaking when you see exclusive in porn it means that the content cannot be seen on any other site. If you are still interested in Twistys, based on wanting different outfits from set to set, it could be your best bet of all sites.

Hey GCode,
The way I use the word glam is based more on that the models are usually dressed classy, my wife calls it a "prissy" factor, they're girly girls. Pretty hair, make-up, and not being overly vulgar. I always looked at Met-Art as "artsy". Twistys has a few models that don't masturbate, but even those spread. I think every model on the site spreads and probably 90% masturbate. They have added a new hardcore section that says they will be adding 14 hardcore scenes per month.
I wouldn't expect many of those dancing around videos. There is lots of masturbation on it, lesbian, hardcore boy and girl. Oh and if you join, they don't have the link up yet, but they also give you bonus access to Nicole Graves dot com.
I still think it is one of the best, if not the best deals on the internet. Just a basic listing from their main page says 2,000+ models, over 1,000,000 pictures and 17,000 videos. They have a very good search engine too. For example, if you search "Piper" even though she is listed as Gabrielle Lupin on Twistys, it will know that she also goes by "Piper" and take you to her page under the name Gabrielle Lupin. I guess the only downfall is the picture size at 1280 max, but those are zipped and very user friendly in downloading. You don't even leave the model's main page, it has a zip icon beside every set and you just click it.
I would compare the content though, very similar to In Focus Girls, just lots more of it on Twistys.

GCode's Review
from exotics4me:
Nice review GCode, just don't get those model names too embedded in your brain. This site along with its sister sites, Sapphic Erotica and Only Cuties has a very odd, different naming system than nearly all other sites. Not for sure if anyone had mentioned it, but you can usually go to euro babe index and put the name in that you know them by and they will list all of her aliases.
On the discussion of stills or photos. There are a couple of ways to tell the difference. I know this from being a member at Give Me Pink off and on for a couple of years now. They offer stills, photos and video for each set.
Here is how you can tell if it is a still or picture. Look late in the sets for the masturbation ones. If those were stills you could see a slight motion blur around the girl's hand/toy/fingers. A good site to see how this works is ALS Scan. They have the Photoshoot videos, where a videographer films while the photographer takes pictures.
These border on major boredom, though the girl will have a dildo in her, she will be sitting there, talking and laughing. Then the photographer says, "Ready" she closes her eyes and opens her mouth like she is moaning. I think this is a pretty normal practice for Euro models, same setting/outfit for pictures and videos.
Just look for the motion blur. Hope that was clear. You have a whole world of Euro models out there now!

Given that their vids have natural sound and don't have the sound of clicking cameras or directors, I think that "yes, they do the vid and photo shoot separately - same location & outfits - I'm sure they have dupes when there's messiness involved." If there's anyone here that knows more the methodology of doing these kind of photo/vid shoots, they ought to chime in.

Gcode, with all due respect, what your looking for in a site, may not be what all people are looking for, and although your feedback is more than valid, let me try and put another idea to you. Sites's like SS (which is excellent for what it does) only update maybe two girls per week and for that you get 2 great solo scenes with cum shots. Shemale Yum is updating usually 7-8 per week, with usually about 50% of them doing cumshots. The rest aren't tease shoots at all but ones that may appeal to other people (not everybody wants the cum shoot, many want dildo play or something other). We wouldn't state "this set has no cum shot" but we do state "this set has a cumshot" so you can easily select "only show cumshots".
Considering we're showing all N.American content, our site is actually pretty good value for money. Not only do you get the above, but twice a month we also show a full length, exclusive hardcore HD video and photos. Usually 20-30 minutes in length (and always cum).
Your not the only one to have that complaint but most people are happy when they look at the amount and quality of content over the course of a month, compared to any other site out there. We are trying to reach the widest audience possible which is why you see non-typical shemale models alongside the established stars, many of these non-typical end up either being stars or firm site favourtites.
I'm confident that you'd enjoy a month on the site, even if you didn't wish to remain a member you'd get 100's of hrs of videos with cumshots (and no wasted downloads as they're easily sorted out). We do have discount options that make it cheaper and where you can mix and match over Grooby sites and you can find that information from the payment pages of any of our sites.
Thanks
seanchai

Screen stills? You think so? I don't. I think that they are photo sets that go along with, but are separate from the vids. They don't give the appearance of screen stills to me.
I would compare them to the photosets that you see at Pix & Video or One By Day - both of those sites have vids that go along with the photo sets, but the photo sets are not screen stills. For comparison, there are bonus sites to Pix & Video where they do have screen still sets - which look quite different - and much lower quality.

GCode, errors can take place in both external and internal drives. Screw-up’s can be from registry, viral, heat, weather, power surge, or any number of reasons to be honest. I had a newly installed, brand fracking new internal drive (before my first external purchase) installed. It was NTSF formatted. The third day of use, it failed. I lost over 300 GB of data.

The video clips are (mostly) of the same sessions, not sure if the stills are vid-caps, they are much sharper and bigger than the video. There is one scene on video (where she get's fucked by a man, I forgot that in the review) which isn't in the still photo area, there may be others but I don't remember off-hand.
I'm a bit uncertain when it comes to technical aspects, but I worked out the MPEGs vary from 50-250kb per second, actually it's closer to 1/6 than 1/4 of the films. Most of the quicktime movies are 100-150 kpbs. They aren't that big and some of them are a bit grainy. There are two films that run to 13 minutes but most are well under 5 minutes.
There isn't a zip option for pictures, the thumbnails (probably about 80 pixels tall) are displayed in a long panel down the side while the image selected shows full side in the main part of the screen.
Updates look to be about every 3 or 4 weeks, but then I don't usually have continuous memberships, I download everything I can in one month and wait a year or so before coming back for more.

Hmmm...
You know, I read your exchange with seanchai on the shemale japan review and at first it made my head hurt. I couldn't figure out what was going on. But then all of a sudden a light bulb went on above my head.
What you are saying is true GCode. It seems like these days they do break up one session of shooting into 2 or 3 sets. Honestly, I didn't even realize this until you said something. Now, I'll look at things differently.
I do still like grooby's sites would join any new site they came out with. They are the most reliable place to get to see some of the top names in shemale porn. I guess I agree with you that every scene should ideally end in a cumshot. However I do really enjoy some of the scenes that don't. Like seanchai said, the do have a very large amount of vids that do end in a cumshot.
A different site I can appreciate is shemale strokers, because they do a cumshot every time (or at least 99% of the time). The do only update 2 times a week, but that seems fine.
Thanks for your replies GCode, and seanchai too. I think this why we have PU. It's a healthy dialogue and helps improve our internet pr0n experience.

There is no mixing and mashing of scenes, although you seem to be doing it with your words and context.
Each set on Shemale Yum and Shemale Japan are distinct sets. With different clothes, costumes and backgrounds. Each set has different forms of play in them - and every model has a cum shot BUT NOT IN EVERY SET. We're quite clear on this and you obviously feel the need to take it out of context.
Shemale Yum updates 7-8 American models per week, from either set 1 or set 2 of their shoot. Approx. 50% of these would have cum shots in any one given week. That means around 30 models per month + hardcore (in which would all be cumshot). The non-cumshot sets are excellent distinct sets and not a "tease" as you suggested, containing an interview, some dildo, wanking, playing with their asses, etc.
If you want to only see cumshot videos, then you can easily do a search within our custom build database for "cumshot" and "video" (you could narrow it down by other fields such as cock size, body shape, ethnicity, hair colour, etc. Doing a search on just that, it's currently showing, 580 distinct cum shot videos, if that's all your interested in seeing.
Thanks for the questions, feel free to check the new tours on the site, our ask questions in our free forum at shemaleyum.com/forum/ or back here. I stand 100% behind all our sites and the quality which is why we've remained top of customer satisfaction and long term members for over 12 yrs.

GCode's Review
from plan b:
Spot on review. I was a member late last summer but never got around to writing up a full review. The only thing I'd add is with respect to the video camera work. Amateurish only begins to describe it. In the videos where the camera guy interacts with the model, he gets so caught up in flirting with the model he completely forgets that he's supposed to be filming it. In one of the speculum scenes, he spends a lot of time shooting closeups of her shoulder cause he's to busy ogling the model on his own. And there's so much camera shake that some of the videos make me motion sick.

from Denner:
I do not think the girls here are thai - a very few look like thais - anyway. As I remember form earlier membership they are mostly Hongkong-girls and some japanese.
For typical/real thai-pornmodels you might take a look at VideosZ and VideoBox om some Fifth Element-DVDs.
Some of these girls also appears at the sites:
Asian Suck Dolls
Creampie Thais
But the videos from Fifth Element are of better quality.
The same goes for the PixandVideo-bonus site:
Dirty Orientals - very much thai/Bangkok/Pataya- girl - probably bar-girls.
A couple of soft thai-girl sites are:
Tussinee
Tailynn
- and Thainee - both soft and bg/hc
Ther's a site called: Thai Cuties - but I honestly do NOT believe many of the girls here are actually thais..

Hey GCode, sure looks exclusive to my eyes. They have a couple of my favorites on there, Zuzanna Z and Sasha, and the previews are of sets that I have never seen. Thanks for posting this, I'm always looking for some Sasha content, love her accent and playfulness.

Thanks GCode, I was a member of this site only recently so my biggest and only question was: how is the video quality now? I know I was very disappointed at the time of my subscription and after a while only downloaded the interviews in order to get to know the models a bit better. I'd be back in a flash if they would upgrade their videos to "Anilos" quality. Everything else I held forth on above was just idle chitchat! :-)

from messmer:
Nice and thorough review, GCode. Thanks for the information regarding the video quality. Reading between the lines I guess they're not quite up to "Anilos" standards yet.
If I may be allowed one observation, though, when it comes to the attractiveness (or lack thereof) of some of the models. I used to belong to a binaries usenet group before spam took over and invariably someone would speak up in connection with a posting and say,(not to me): "Can't you post anything better than these pictures of old frumps", while another would say about the same model: "Hey, thanks, for posting sets of this woman, she's been a favorite of mine for a long time!" I don't think a site can be judged by the attractiveness of its models when tastes are so dramatically different.
Just a casual observation accompanied by a mea culpa because I did the same thing. You may have noticed that I gave the site a slightly lower score than you, and in my case it was because of the terrible quality of the picture sets some of the photographers put out.
Imagine my surprise when one of my most despised photographers turned out to be someone else's highly praised favorite! :-)

Hi Gcode
Thanks for your response.
I think most of those girls have cumshots in their photos and videos? Anzu, Mike certainly do - not in every set but they do cum in some.
Also the photos are not video captures but proper photos? If you see in the tour that they are proper photos.
We could get a photoshoot with a cum shot each time but that would only allow us to update one set a week.
$35 is not cheap and some of our websites offer more content per update - however, considering the amount of content that this site puts up - plus the full hardcore video all filmed in HD - of Japanese models (notoriously expensive which is why no other company does it) then it's cheaper than a DVD purchase and better economics than other websites.
Thanks

Just recieved an email from Admin of the Grooby Site, and he says that is absolute rubbish. Here it is.
That's absolute rubbish.
Can you point me to the reviews so I can correct that.
Almost every one of our models cums - the ones who don't are either post-op (2 models) or have been castrated and cannot cum.
Grooby has been producing sites for 12 yrs - we wouldn't be around that long if our models didn't cum.
Thanks
