I've been wondering why there has been such a large increase in TS reviews in the London section of the site (apologies if that is more common across the site, I don't tend to look at other regions).
I've used escorts for 12 years and been a member of this site for 7 years. There have always been TS escorts in London. It would be fair to say that in the past, the majority of TS people in London were working as escorts. But, I never saw many reviews.
My question is, are more men seeing TS escorts, or is it is just less taboo to say so now?
Also, having looked at reviewers histories, it seems like many use TS and biologically female escorts and switch back and forth, so I have a question about sexual preference and reasons why. I'd love to hear some anecdotes from members as to why they tried a TS sexual experience for a first time.
I hope none of this comes across as "transphobic" or hateful. I'm merely curious as to what seems like a surge in demand for TS sex amongst heterosexual men and whether this is tied to availability of TS porn, the trans rights movements any other social factors which tend to condition and permeate our desire for sex and how we go about fulfilling it.
I've personally never tried a TS escort, but I have had the curiosity to browse AW TS profiles and have watched TS porn on a few occasions, never finding it much of a turn on but more of a subversive thing to consume.
Another question I have is whether any members who have seen TS escorts have also used gay male escorts, as I believe TS sex is sex with a biological male, whether pre or post op.
Hope people are willing to explore this topic and share their experiences and perspectives.
Thanks for your thoughful post paulitor, which deserves a considered response.
I would say yes, more guys are indeed reviewing Trans escorts on UKP now. Certainly this will have at least something to do with the old Hung Angels site closing down, and that will be guys who always had a interest in T-girls.
However, just as certainly, there are guys (such as myself) who never even knew that site existed, who nevertheless have got into TSs. Similarly, they still see Cisgirls too.
In all of this, there most definitely
is less of a taboo about it now as well, and what you will see is quite a few guys 'giving it a go' and seeing whether they like it. And they are very willing to post up here about it, even if they wish they hadn't gone through with it. I think for many it's something they want to give a try at least once in their lives, and why not? It's an anonymous punting site where reviews of Trans girls are allowed in the rules, and even those who have no personal interest can take a peek and see what all the fuss is about if they wish.
So for the benefit of all on here, same as with any other punting, the reviews get posted up, warts-and-all. It's for others to make of it what they will.
Obviously everyone is aware that Trans girls started out their lives as males, and pre-op ones still have the tackle. And there is a wide variation across the
genre (probably not the right word) from middle-aged blokes in frocks with frankly little femininity, all the way through to ultra-feminine creatures who are to all intents and purposes gorgeous women up until the knickers come off. Infact, there are many instances of post-op Trans girls who (wrongly) advertise themselves as 'female'. Indeed, there is a recent thread on here where one of the longstanding and well-respected 'alpha-male' members of UKP has seen such a girl and not realised until after it was pointed out to him on here.
It's a crazy, mixed-up world these days and barriers are coming down in all sorts of ways. There is no black & white any more, there is convergence, merging, a blurring of the boundaries. That in itself can be exciting for some, for others, they have no interest in blurring those boundaries and that's fine. Each to their own.
Also worth noting that in addition to the
subjects of our desires blurring the edges, so too is it with punters. I've little doubt that some punters on UKP have Bi-tendencies and enjoy playing the entire field between the extremes I mentioned above, and some punters will only want to go with an ultra-feminine Trans girl who is totally passable. They would probably consider themselves heterosexual and would have no interest whatsoever in blokes or even 'pretty boys' (I'm talking over-18 of course, the same as for seeing over-18 female escorts).
I don't think there are any Gay punters here, Gay blokes have no interest at all in women and indeed, if you ask a Trans girl, they have no interest in Trans girls either.
Generally across society there is much more acceptance of people who are 'different' these days, there is less discrimination, there is less hate, there is less prejudice. There's much more of an attitude of live and let live. So long as everyone contributes to society in some way, why shouldn't they all get along while being who and what they want to be?
Quite rightly because TSs aren't everyone's cup of tea, there's a separate category for TS reviews and postings. And personal sexuality of course is a matter of great pride to a good many men. But it's quite amusing to see some who seem to take great delight in visiting those reviews and then slagging off guys who punt TSs as 'Gay' or 'Bisexual'. I have no idea why they do this, why are they looking in the first place, and why do they feel the need to assert their own alpha-maleness by doing so? It's pointless and meaningless, this place is an anonymous exchange for punting information and tips.
I think you'll generally tend to find a lot more honesty in TS reviews because in posting such a review, you've already had to jump the mental hurdles I outlined above. It's as if everything's already laid bare, so just tell the truth.
Anyway, hope this helps
