Facts: TS porn is the number one selling category in the adult film industry. That breaks down to 1 in 5 straight men are regular consumers of TS content. Study responses also show that between 64% and 73% of men are /regular/ consumers of porn. That means a substantial number of you are really into trans women.

OK, I'll buy your statistics on straight guys who watch TS porn even though you have not cited a source.  But then when you make the leap to say that, therefore, "it's reasonable to assume that a far (sic) majority doing so are also seeing TS providers."
That statement makes about as much sense as saying, a majority of men watch movies about serial killers, ergo, a large percentage of them ARE serial killers.  
Look, I support everyone's right to seek the kind of sexual identity they want/need with NO stigma.  But please don't just make shit up because it makes you feel good.  'Kay?

... i.e. those who make digs at trans women get noticed because they make comments about it, and those who are fine with trans women don't get noticed because they (we) are just minding our business.

It is not reasonable to assume a "far majority" of hobbyists who view TS porn see TS providers. There is a giant gap between watching and doing, in the first place (and doing or wanting to do and paying for it, for that matter). In the second, it's a fantasy, and usually not a very realistic one. I assume they're lumping together fake or highly manipulated images with realistic transsexual porn to arrive at that statistic.  

"Different" people will always get bashed somewhere, but for the most part the TS community is accepted here on TER. Sasha2cute is a well liked and well respected poster on this board. She was even the first TS Miss TER almost 2 years ago! Most of your posts here are accepted here, and I haven't seen you face a lot of opposition or judgement. If you are going to let a post by euromodelsshown upset you, then you have a pretty thin skin. Have you seen his other posts? The guy is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

All I know is my favorite porn is muscular gay guys.  

and she's also smart when she doesn't let her TS prejudices blind her.  Personally, I'd love to see her keep posting here.  Just take a deep breath first.  Yes, we do have dim-bulbs like EMS but most people here -- male, female, TS, etc. -- are tolerant. I just have one request of River:  Please, PLEASE, don't ask me to start using terms like cisgender.  Otherwise, I'm with her.

Since you mentioned porn, how about this record breaking creamery by Renata Davila!

TS porn citations  

I totally agree that those that aren't hostile to trans people get passed over. We all have a tendency to focus in on what sticks out, and in relation to OP, that's insulting or hostile comments about trans people.

The whole "well it isn't about me, so therefore I shouldn't say anything" way of thinking.

I think you didn't mean to say "equivocation." You mean an equivalency
.e·quiv·o·ca·tion
noun
the use of ambiguous language to conceal the truth or to avoid committing oneself; prevarication.
"I say this without equivocation"
Now let's be friends, OK?

A sizable majority of TS porn star are also escorts (punch in any performer in the search and you'll likely come back with a provider page... myself as an example.). So, the assumption that those providers would be using fake images doesn't hold much water as nearly all of us use images from the scenes we shoot, which have minimal editing (fans complain about overly edited images, so we (the producers... ) don't do a whole lot of editions because we don't want to Alienware our customerr base. Further, As far as images of TS providers in general being somehow ""highly manipulated" has nothing to support it. What leads you to this assumption. I'd be willing to guess it's an assumption on what you think trans women look like (man in a dress stereotype) (please correct me if that's not the statement you were making. I could very well be misinterpreting what your stating.

Unfortunately, if history is an indicator, this is likely falling on deaf ears.

Your logical is fundamentally flawed. What sense would it make to put a /very/ viable post up of o couldn't handle stupid things? Your making an assumption that doesn't hold true. I could actually give two shits; my day keeps moving forward. However, other trans people aren't as hardened, as is evident in a community suicide attempt rate over 50% (54% to be exact). As an advocate for the rest of my community, and a person who generally doesn't have time for bullshit, I step in to slap it down. That's kind of the antithesis of thin skinned, don't ya think?

It's not just him, thought that post is what inspired the OP here. There have been posts peppered through the boards since I started paying attention to it; it's not just him (please note some of the other posts I've commented on about this... this is just the first post not in a thread tree). Also this thin skinned bs is a derailment from a valid point. See references link

Huff into a paper bag, wouldya?  Will there be a test or sumptin? LOL

Cissssssgggeennndddeeerrrr. It's a word in the English language... a language that isn't dead and evolves when new words are necessary. Also, not prejudice. I made an observation, provided backing for it, and took a position. It's like the opposite... it's calculated.

With TS ladies are when they have a chip on their shoulder or are thin-skinned.  Providers on this board are a bunch of tough smart cookies. Take a cue from them and don't let people here get under your skin. It makes you look like a whiney little girl instead if an adult.

The Urban Dick-tionary doesn't count.
PS: I'm NOT cisgender. I'm a lesbian trapped in a man's body. And I love it.

We concluded that any trans woman that can shoot a load that bag should be considered a superhero because that shit is insane.

☺

He's my hero.

click on the link Sherlock?

I had a witty and sarcastic comment but lost it in opening up a new window...

It actually is a word. Please catch up here hon, you're falling behind.

Please do exaplain how what I stated is "whiney" or "thin skinned" about what I stated. Please don't spare any detail in your explanation (I've already stated why that's a derailment and fallacious). The basic fact that I made the statement knowingly expecting the response I got (I even talked about it on twitter prior to post approval), an then continuing to engage it runs counter to your statement.  

I need some of Dunphy's secret eye bleach stash.

The guys here aren't the ones saying stupid things. This is a post relative to the general board, not the TS one.

I haven't seen too much transphobia on this board, at least nothing out of the way as far as targeting the whole population.  A couple of issues I have seen was one lady who was a post-op and was hiding it from her clients.  She was pretty brutal in her attacks on some of the posters for stating their opinions.  Another was of a TS that posted a dick pic in the pic only board.  To each his own, I don't mind either way on that front, I believe TS girls have the right to post and run ads just as much as the next person.  I've said this before, as far as this being a sex board, it sucks the majority of the time because you have to cipher through a lot of bullshit if you're looking for solid advice or help.  IMO it's not just TS porn or TS's that get thrashed in main stream while watched privately, all porn or sex workers get the treatment to a certain extent, maybe it's just society period?  

the first link doesn't say anything about Trans porn being the #1 category. It says the exact opposite. Lesbian category gets over 4 times as much traffic on Pornhub than Trans. They said a Trans movie was the #1 seller on a site for a week. But that's not the same. Did you just make that up about it being the #1 category?

Most of what I see is minor, not she it's taken on a wider scope as a lot of little things in general, that's when it's really problematic. That's why I posted about it. But very thoughtful comment btw

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

Yes, because fiction is a substitute for real life. Also another derailment via emotion. I made a valid point, and your assumption of my disposition is irrelevant. Further, whatever Saja does has no bearing on what I do... at all... in any manner. Should all black
Folks act the same to get your approval, all day people? All disabled people?

but there have been far more for all 8 years I have been on TER. Nastier than nowadays.
