Rather or not you know it many of your models and other trans women are put into a position to make a decision on rather to go off hormones to get cast or land a client. A majority of trans women cannot top with their bio cocks as is often portrayed in mainstream trans porn or in the world of off camera sex work. Many mainstream trans sites focus on trans women topping including featuring in their logo (see below)
What going off hormones does to trans women is it starts to regulate her hormone levels to what they were before transition effectively being at the same hormone levels as a cis man for the ability to top with her cock and being able to ejactulate. Clearly some trans women can naturally top with their cocks or ejactulate a ton while being on hormones and more power to those girls. There is nothing wrong with a trans woman using her cock or the ability to squirt/cum.
Kink.com only features trans women topping with their cocks with the tag line “Beautiful TS Women Dominating with Their Cocks.”. When trans women decide to go off hormones to perform in a porn scene or for off camera sex work you often see this bring up extreme gender dysphoria, anxiety, depression ontop of the havoc it does to your endocrine system. Do companies know performers are going off hormones to perform? Probably in some capacity that is often written off as “Well that’s what the fans want to see.”.
Can the trans porn industry exist with taking this health risk into their own hands to protect their workers from having health risks? Of course it can!!! My scene with Bailey Jay is a prime example that also earned a Best Scene of the Year Nomination at The Transgender Erotica Awards with no penetration via either of our cocks. I think its easy to write off well its just porn they are making the decision to go off hormones while at the same time other industries would be disowned for not protecting worker health. If we as an industry are going to really talk about how trans people need to be normalized and accepted we cannot overlook the health of trans sex workers and how standards of mainstream trans porn is effecting it. This isn’t going to be an overnight change but porn informs other forms sex work. Companies taking steps to move away from the extremely phallocentric depiction of trans women’s sexuality can create a culture change that moves away from the norm of trans women having to go off hormones.
