Transsexual pornography
Transsexual pornography (also referred to as transgender pornography, shemale porn, tranny porn or t-girl porn) is a genre of pornography.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Trans women are most often featured with male partners, but they are also featured with other women, both transgender and cisgender.[7][8][9] Common phrases used to refer to these individuals are "chicks with dicks", "trannies", or "shemales", although these are generally considered pejorative slurs among trans women.[10][11] Transgender men also feature in transsexual pornography which features performers who were assigned female at birth and who medically transitioned to male.[12]
Buck Angel is the best-known actor in this genre.[13][14]
Awards
AVN Award Transsexual Performer of the Year is one of the major awards in the porn industry for transgender pornographic performers.[15][16] Transgender Erotica Awards (formerly Tranny Awards) is the other major awards.[17][18]
Fanbase
Fans of transsexual pornography typically identify themselves as straight.[19][20][21][22] Shemale porn has become one of the largest, most popular genres of porn among heterosexual males.[20][23][24] It may be that the attraction is based on the contemporaneous presentation of stereotypical anatomical cues of femininity along with the visual trigger of a penis, often a very large penis.[20]
Perception
Some people view transsexual porn as gay porn.[25][26][27][28][29] Although transsexual porn is a popular category, some in the LGBT community feel it objectifies transgender people.[26][30][31][32][33][34]
