Shemale Yum had been running less than a year when I was contacted by a member who claimed to know many of the tgirls in California and to see if we would work out a deal where he shot content for the site. When he mentioned some of the girls he could get, I jumped at the chance and soon Shemale Yum was featuring, the first internet photosets of girls who were already video stars. Models like Meghan Chevalier, Kimberly Devine, Shana, Gina, Geneva, Barbie Woods, etc. found themselves on the internet with a whole world of new fans!
It wasn’t long before Bob decided he wanted to steer his own ship, and in 1998 Bobs-Tgirls.com was created to showcase only girls Bob shot in his own “Playboy-like” style. The site was part of the Grooby company for a short-time before Bob and I, parted ways. We’ve remained very friendly over the years (when other webmasters who tried to cause problems came and went) and helped each other as well met up a number of times in Los Angeles, usually at Peanuts (Club 7969), where he is a regular fixture. I last saw him, in April when Frank, Buddy Wood, the lovely Khloe Hart and I were in Los Angeles. I introduced Khloe to Bob and suggested that they work together, Bob mis-heard what I said and was very elusive to Khloe all night (although I give her more than enough attention!) - it was only a few weeks later, he spoke to me and thought that Khloe was my girlfriend (who is a gender girl). When a seasoned Tgirl hunter like Bob, cannot spot a girl - she’s got to be very good!
Although Bobs-Tgirls.com now features both Thai and Brazilian girls, usually shot by somebody other than Bob, it is the shoots that he does - of Californian girls or girls visiting Los Angeles which have kept his members loyal and his fans coming back. Pretty much everybody has seen samples of Bob’s work over the years but if you haven’t joined his site, I un-reservedly, recommend it. Like Grooby, he only has exclusive content and works with the models with whom he has gained a lot of respect. His site has started updating daily (or almost daily) and at $19.95 a month, it’s pretty much the best deal out there.
When Bobs-Tgirls.com features, over 350 Tgirl models, most in multiple sets and videos and pretty much every American star you can mention (he showcases Yasmin Lee first as well as a host of others) it’s head and shoulders above sites charging much more!
Bob started releasing Bob’s Tgirl Fantasies a few years ago and although sporadically released, they’re among some of the better DVD release a year and always to look forward to - with the Niki scene in Bob’s Tgirl Fantasies 8 in which she squirts the guys cum 5ft out of her ass, becoming legendary!
Today’s winner will win the complete selection of Bob’s Tgirls Fantasies (see them at http://www.shemale-video-direct.com) and a month on his site, 2 runners up will get a DVD of their choice each and a month each on Bobs-Tgirls.com
The answer to “Who give Buddy Wood, his sloppiest, noisiest blowjob was of course, the un-imitable, Danielle Foxxx.
You can see (and hear) that blowjob on Grooby VOD! Two winners - two DVD’s each from the Buddy Wood collection, we have free trailers and stills at Grooby DVD page.
The Mandy Competition had the most entries of any of the competitions so far. Despite my obvious clue that the height on her Yum profile was wrong, some still thought it was the answer !?! but most got it right at a lean, long, 6ft 2. Only one winner today - and they’re going to win a 3 month pass on Mandy Tgirl although we’re all winners really, look at these freebies that Mandy has just shot with our other favourite, Asian persuasian, the awesome Krissy (click to see her site).
The winner of today’s competition - will win the two Grooby DVD’s that are the answer to todays question! Two winners - two DVD’s each.
In the beginning … In Ye Olde Days of Internet … Back yonder … 10 years ago, most of the adult websites were ran by amateur horny guys and girls like myself. I started Shemale Yum for fun and it grew into the Grooby company it is today. The best sites were ones ran by amateur type Tgirls who found a place to show themselves off. These were pre-2257 laws so those photos propigated fast and I’m sure many of you will remember with fondness, Stephanie Yume, Alyssa (she wore a schoolgirl outfit), very early Joanna Jet and other solo girls whose photos were the only source to new material that many of us had. Frankly, it was more exciting back then, the amount of material we get in now is overkill and the market is saturated by bodacious, big assed shemales from Brazil and tight brown cuties from Thailand. I only get excited when I see someone fresh and hot come along, like Khloe Hart - or Carmen, Nadja or Kamely whom we updated on Saturday. Most of the shemale websites are now operated by large corporations, who have no interest in the genre or anything to do with transsexuals apart from the bottom dollar. They don’t shoot for themselves, they buy the cheapest material they can and they spend the money on promotion and attracting affiliates with massive payouts. Mid-sized companies like Grooby do okay because we appeal to the more discerning customer, or those who’ve tried the other sites. It’s good to see that there are still other sites out there, like Bobs Tgirls who are still continuing to shoot new content and stay true to their origins.
So what happened to the solo girls who started their sites 10 years ago? I don’t think any of them have much of a web presence any longer but their are new girls, who are starting their own sites and creating great personal content.
In many ways sites like Nikki TS Fun are far more exciting than sites like ours. You know the girls are for real and behind the site, you can see that they are genuinely horny and into it - and often you can request specific looks or styles from them.
So who is Nikki TS? She’s a hot and horny little Filipino girl, based in California but has travelled abroad to shoot with her partner, actions scenes in which she’s jumped into bed (or onto the cocks) of other sex shemales, guys and girls. They’ve been running their own site Nikki TS Fun for over a year and have some great photos and videos there. She’s also so cool, she’s given a whole set of photos and a great video clip to this site for our 10th Year Birthday as well as given us some goodies for a competition.
Competition 8 Winners : Wendy Williams . Wendy of course, starred in Joanna Jet’s Shemale Jetset 3. Winners of signed Wendy Williams material, 6 months on her site and DVD’s will be notified by email.
The lucky winner of this competition will get a pair of Nikki’s panties, worn by her and then sealed in a zip lock bag! They will also get a three month membership to her website!

PHOTOGRAPHER PROFILE - Tony Vee
… or “The Tenacious Vee” as I’ve been calling him lately has probably done more to promote and bring new tgirl models to the public eye than any other person - period. He’s been working with me for over 8 years and his stamina. vigour and ability to get the newest, freshest models no matter if he is in his home city of NY or on a travel to Florida, California, Boston, Chicago or Canada, always amazed me. When other photographers go to a brand new city on a shooting trip they might come back with 7 models over a 5 day period, Tony will return with 20.Responsible for bringing models like Lisa Kage, Amber Vaughn, Aniyah Red, Allanah Starr, Carmen Cruz and more to the internet for the first time, his real quality for me, if continuing to find new fresh talent - and the ability to never take a potential models refusal to pose, as a final answer.
I’ve shared some great adventures with Tony over the years, the first video we shot in NYC together (Kitty, Lisa Kage, Amanda, BamBam, etc.), shooting in a public park in Long Island, stumbling out of Rudy’s Bar in Manhatten after a few drinks in the afternoon and literally tripping over a tranny - 20 mins later we’re shooting her in her apartment.
Tony and I have been to Vegas together (we managed to talk two average looking black tgirls we’d just met into coming and doing a shoot for us, they showed up the next day, well dressed and excited - we started the shoot, only to find they were actually two average looking gender girls ….), to Brazil (a Brazilian transsexual that Tony had hooked up caused a scene in the hotel lobby while he was in his room and got all of us banned from the hotel! We’ve also been to Thailand which introduced him to the ways of the Asian women!
Joey Silvera, who arguably started the modern TS porn style, even reveres how Tony shoots and the girls he gets (many girls would never have appeared in Rogue Adventures if it wasn’t for Tony and Joey’s friendship).
Tony Vee shoots gonzo shemale style. Sometimes his style isn’t pretty - it’s not perfectly framed or lit but it’s horny, it’s real and it presents the girls how they are.
It’s unlikely anyone who surfs for shemale porn has not came across Tony’s work or work influenced by him. I’m trying to get him locked into a contract with the company that will keep him working with us for at least the next 20 years.
Tony, I salute you!
Competition 5: Brazilian Webmistress. This fooled many people. We’ve had Domy and Natasha as webmistresses - but the very first was “Gretta” - hence the original name of the site. “Gretta’s Brazilian Transsexuals.”
Only two people got it right - and they both win a month each on a Grooby site of their choice.
Competition 6: Tiffany Who? - Answer, Tiffany Andrews. No winners!
Today’s competition is to win the three Tony Vee DVD’s available at Shemale Video Direct.
As part of our Birthday month, we’re doing two Girls of the Month, for August but if we had more room I would have also squeezed Carmen in as a Girl of the Month as she’s so much of what we like at Shemale Yum, fresh, new, cute and fun. In the 10 years since I’ve been at the helm of this site, I don’t know how many new girls we’ve showcased on the site (but will try and do a count!) but it’s always exciting to get someone new whom I know is going to set the internet on fire. Allanah’s first internet photoshoot was on this site, I think Wendy Williams was also, Joanna Jet, Holly Sweet, the late Lisa Kage, Nefertiti were some of our earlier girls who went on to be stars - more recently, Khloe Hart, Jessica, Sexy Jade & Danika are just some of our more recent models whom have caused a stir in more than a few pants. In fact, if you look throughout the last 10 years, almost every transsexual erotica model, working in the US has started with us - or we’ve managed to get good sets early in their careers.
Most sites out there, which I don’t have to name, base their shooting schedules on who they see is popular on our site. They let our budget dollar take the risk and then when they see a popular model, step in and offer a shoot to capitalise on it. It’s a good business plan but it’s also the reason they’ll always be behind us. When we can get models like Khloe, Katt, Carmen on this weeks update, Girl of the Month’s Nadja or Kamely then I’m going to be more excited, the photographers get a bigger kick out of doing their jobs and the paying members, know that although we may take some risks, most of the time it pays off - sometimes ten fold when we showcase these special girls first.
This is your site as well as ours. When we find a new model first, you share in it - and in many circumstances it’s been site members who have first forwarded a potential new model to us, or referred this site to a specific model who was unsure about posing.
So keep up the good work - everyone.
Today’s competition is to win 1x $100 Gift voucher and 2x $50 vouchers for Shemale Video Direct
