Just don't think about the title

Puttering around the store not that long ago I ran across a video lurking in the she-male section that just flat out irks me. The title declares it to be "100% Organic She-Males."

I am well fucking aware that porn is complete and utter fantasy fluff. I fully understand that producers will pounce without hesitation on any social trend or cause du jour if they think it will cause the punters to buy more of their product.

That said, how in the copious bowels of Baba Yagga can anyone suspend disbelief far enough to buy into the pretext that any she-male in the videos is "organic" beyond being a viable organism?! It would be one thing if the market was glutted with androids or complex marionettes getting it on for the camera, but we're not at that stage yet. Instead, the theme they are attempting to market is that said "chicks with dicks" are free from chemicals or artificial augmentation.

She-males are without exception altered males. This goes beyond the scope of a killer frock, size twelve stiletto heels, wig, and wide assortment of cosmetics. These are guys who've invested a lot of time and money into feminizing their body while remaining functionally capable as a male. I have no idea what the complete process involved for these performers is, but I'd be astounded if it didn't involve an array of injections and implants. They're about as "organic" as a Twinkie. Nothing wrong if that's what appeals to your appetite, but don't throw a completely impossible label on top.

The worst part is that I know there are people who actually ARE dumb enough to find it plausible.

Dear gods, the things I decide to get tetchy about.
