Is gay a niche?
 

I heard all these people say gay isn't a niche. IMO it is a niche. When you start to classify a particular niche you classify it into the two biggest niches.

Straight
Gay

I agree ... just like any other niche it's a lifestyle and a category that someone will look for if their into it ... straight porn is a niche also just a bigger one then BBW or Foot

No, it's a twisted sickness.

No you dont, you classify it into markets, then niches, then sub/micro niches.

Gay / Straight / Tranny = Markets

Twinks / Teens = Niches

Ebony Twinks / Lesbian Teens = Sub/Micro niches.

yup, it is a niche...

A niche. A top selling niche to be exact :thumbsup

its a niche! ...

If it's not a niche then what is it?

It's a genre.

Shit tranny qualifies as gay! I've got to call my mom...she always wanted grandkids too..oh well

(kidding)

if you consider straight a niche, then gay is a niche. i consider both gay and straight to be markets.

these are niches:

straight teen
gay teen
straight interracial
gay interracial
straight ebony
gay ebony
straight big dick sex
gay big dick sex

and so on.... in fact, for the most part gay and straight have the SAME niches.

Gay is sexual orentation for me,and then from Gay you start to get niches,like from sraight

Porn is the market, Gay is a segment of that market, Straight is a segment of that market. The dictionary says: NICHE - a distinct segment of a market.

Porn is an industry. Gay/Straight is the market. Twinks/Teens are niches.

It depends.

All-gay sites, all-gay products, oriented to gay people, that's a market.

Gay galleries in a straight mgp, or paysites that have 20 straight sites but as an incentive also have one gay site, that's a niche.

To my mind it's a niche :pimp

Well stated by European Lee, IMO

to the gay community - straight in a niche

gay = industry!

A HUGE niche!

I've always heard of the "gay market"...

it's our biggest niche

Totally agree!

No.

It's a lifestyle.

It is a niche as teens or hardcore. Is a hardcore niche? :winkwink:

I don't know, it's like saying 'straight' is a niche. In that case you would have to call 'anal' a microniche, wich it isn't.

Exactly.

Would anyone call "mainstream" a niche?

There are as varied number of niches in the gay market as the straight market.

To say gay is a niche would mean that you could present any gay website to a gay person and it would be what they like. If someone likes bears, you wouldn't try to sell them twinks.

It's many lifestyles:winkwink:

Gays are not the market for tranny sites:2 cents:

agreed.

Gay is a genre
twink would be a niche
