As stated in another thread it's marketed as "straight" because most men who like trannies are homophobic and ashamed to admit they have gay feelings. So you have to patronize them and pretend it's not gay, or they wouldn't buy it.

If tranny porn really was a "straight" thing, so many straight men would not be repulsed by it. If it wasn't all about the cock the amount of "pre-op" tranny porn would not absolutely dwarf "post-op" tranny porn.

More anecdotal, pornography-specific bullshit about what "gay" means. Funny how there's a "wide spectrum" of what "straight" means (including trannies), but when it comes to being gay it's so simple -> beefy men with short hair and pecs only.
