This film features trans women playing the role of full service sex workers, in a threesome with a cisgender male performer who plays the role of their client. It was part the company's "She-Male Encounters - Connoisseur Series" which showcased trans femme performers in a variety of pairings, although often in scenarios where their genitalia is revealed as a surprise (always welcomed) to their partners. The term 'she-male' is widely considered outdated and offensive by present day trans communities. We choose to include the title in our collection as it presents a historical reflection on trans representation in pornography in the 80's. PinkLabel.TV is curated by its creator Shine Louise Houston based on a set of criteria that aims to expand our notions of adult film. Our collection includes erotic and adult videos that often exist outside of conventional pornography, whether in depictions of bodies and desires that are underrepresented in commercial porn, through titles with historical cultural relevance, or movies with original concepts and cinematic craft. With these factors taken into consideration, we hope you appreciate the film.
