Amen!!!

Herding cats.

Dangerous in the sense of user retention. The vast majority is here explicitly for gay porn. If they wanted to see women they would likely be on any other site. This vas majority is (sexually) repelled by women and does not want to see them in a sexual context.

Pretty boys belong with pretty boys - not with (ugh) girls.

See what I'm saying?

Yes, super complicated... Pretty much totally impossible to implement:

if ($video_categories.has("str8") && $user_settings.has("show_str8")){
   list_video();
}else{
   dont();
}

if ($video_categories.has("bisex") && $user_settings.has("show_bisex")){
   list_video();
}else{
   dont();
}

....

And i'm not kidding, this is actually the code needed to do it. In reality coding it would even be shorter, 2 lines of code on the listing function.

Does that code rely on the uploaders using relevant tags?

@c4leb: Yes sure. How else would the system recognize that?
Moderators should be able to mark videos as such too - and using wrong categories should be reprimandable.

Putting the right categoryy would be compulsory then. All such content NOT marked with the right categorie could be directly removed by monitors.

Easiest way would actually be to add a checkbox "upload contains depiction(s) of (biological) female(s)" on upload. And a simple "show content with females" setting in the user settings. No need to differentiate it much into str8 and bisexual, you want females, you get females. If you dont like it: Go to a more specific site for females :)

Well, the tag system would have to be overhauled radically to ensure compliance, and by extension, the search mechanism. Complete overhaul.

I demonstrated the search overhaul (2 lines of code to make it boolean, 2 more lines to add specific categories search) and proposed a category model (~10 lines of code).

Given the database indexed FULLTEXT I could implement that within 45min.

Why can't I move this chat box Out of the way when responding sentence by sentence...how annoying....

As I've said, the thumbnail can show a good looking very handsome black man.... then I see him have sex with a woman. I don't want to see that. 
The Painting is ruined, the food tastes nasty, and I get disgusted and go away.

It can (and has) ruined my experience. Straight porn is a turn off.

*ONLY Speaking for myself*

I rather content be Bi then straight.

I mean I'm not gonna watch Bi Porn either but I understand why people would be into that.

"Those pages mostly feature older, fatter, less attractive men..."

That's just preference, dhlups, and perhaps just taking the path of least resistance. If you bi boys really wanted to establish a presence you'd start saturating such straight sites with bisexual material (much as you're doing here). Much less resistance from the gay community, right? Until now...

A quick search will show that there's just as much wrinkly gay material on here (tagged as 'Dad/son') as you describe, so is that a valid argument for having women on the site? I argue against that position.

"... how many videos we are talking about..."

Enough to generate such a discussion as this, with fervently held opinions. Bi guys have had a foot in both camps, and could - when push came to shove - hide in plain sight. Gay men have been more visible, and our safe spaces are something we've carved out and for which we have fought. And we've carried the rest of the queer alphabet with us, to boot. 

Don't use our inclusivity against us; we've allowed you in - leave your preferences for women at the door. You're welcome to your boy fix, but don't push it any further.

Fem, trans etc etc......... IMO it's fine.

It's not my cup of tea. I'll reserve my Opinion about it.

I have deep respect for FTMs who have put in the ultimate effort to live as a man. They should be included as male, they've earned their place in the Boys Club.

@C4leb: So why not "normal" women then? Maybe they are FTM, who knows? And everyone uploading str8 content will just claim the female is FTM (or at least identified as such at some point). What extend of the "transformation" do you require? FTM can be fully intact women. Is a mastectomy sufficient to make full screen pussy closeups gay? Is an enlarged clitoris gay?

This has nothing to do with respect, but with pure reality. You will barely find a "full" FTM transformation with a phalloplastic. Quite all cases will basically be tomgirls with small or removed boobs.

I'm totally fine with femboys because they have dicks that get hard and ejaculate sperm. 

Seeing the comments here just confirms my worry about making such destinctions, we all have different view on what is what and what is ok.

As gay we should be inclusive, but as this is a gay forum, ask that bi content e.g. should be marked as bi, to make it easier to find and easier to avoid if you want that

"FTM can be fully intact women."

No, by definition, they can't, verydelight. Making the transition from female to male is the journey away from being a woman, away from femininity as possibly can be, physically and psychologically. It's more than just a mastectomy - it's the hormonal changes that maketh the the man, the internal matching the external. A phalloplasty is for the moment unobtainable, but it's the final hurdle for our most recent men. 

@C4leb: I see no difference between a full screen pussy close up and a full screen pussy closeup with medially induced hormonal imbalance. It is still a full screen pussy closeup and not gay - to put it cynical.

If it has a pussy (in the front) its a woman. Doesnt matter if hairy, having a beard, dressing in leather jacket, tattooed everywhere and having no boobs.

I can appreciate a pussy on a man. I may not want to go there, but I recognise their place in the manosphere. Feminised men, however, are opting out of masculinity, so I'm not the least bit interested. I have no time for femmes or trannies, penis or not. There, the mote in my eye.

*shrug*  Perhaps the gain in men (FTMs) offsets the loss (MTFs), all else being equal.

I don't know that my acceptance is progressive per se, just a recognition of a person's identity. I'm fine with someone who is happier if they can live with their version of themselves, rather than to not recognise their unhappiness and have them die in misery. Isn't the pursuit of happiness one of the goals of the human condition?

The major point is to make clear YES/NO rules that can not be debated. If they leave too much space for arguing it results in debates and complaints. Yes, maybe 3 people will be unhappy because they are a man (by their own definition) AND have a front-pussy, but their happiness is simply not worth having to debate 10.000 videos with 800 users... They have their own forums and groups that they ALSO try to keep on topic... 

So a simple and non-debatable rule is: No front-pussies.

Everything that contains a front-pussy goes into trash or explicit-consent-separation. Everything else causes additional work load that is by no means worth it. There is seriously no need to create 300 fuzzy edge-cases to make everyone happy that only apply to maybe 3 people but will cause 800 ppl to debate them. It is not neccessary to make everyone happy - everyone who is not happy has or can start their own safe-space.

So because a "woman" had a dick, it's acceptable? What if a woman has a strap on then?  Where is the line?  Its all in the eye of the beholder.

It has been my experience that just about all femboys are are bottom boys and most enthusiastic bottoms at that which makes them great fucks. Some of the most intense orgasms I've ever had were inside the rectums of femboys. And after you pump your sperm deep up inside them you can be treated to a mouthful of their sweet delicious sperm for dessert. So as far as I'm concerned, if they have a real dick which ejaculates real sperm then they belong here. If they don't - they don't.

my modest opinion, this site is a success not because it is a generalist porn site, but a highly specialised gay site for gay people who like BOYS, and it will be successful as long as it keeps its focus

so anything off topic does not belong here, in my opinion. So for me straight sex and women do not belong here, not because they are a turn off for me (and they are for me), or because i hate straight people or women, but they do not belong here.

if i go to a gay sauna, i obviously expect to find a gay atmosphere and not just generic gay but the kind of clientele the establishment is known for, wether it is bears, leather or boys or other.

to me FTM transexuals who strive to build their virility are fine even if they have a pussy, not because of their choice but because of a destiny that was particularly hard on them.

on the contrary MTF feminised men who are opting out of their masculinity do not belong here in my eyes

There is not "edit"?

How odd.

Well to ADD ..........

When People go on the internet and have the urge to look at "gay porn", this website would/should/could come up.

People Porously SEARCH for "Gay Content", they want to SEE j/o to Gay content.

What would make anyone want to become a member of this website if  user searches for Gay content , Come to This website (because gay is in the title) but see "straight content" on it's front page.

As silly as it is, Its "mis leading"..........and that user (who porously searched for -gay content-) may just look somewhere else cause they see  Straight videos mixed in with gay videos.

If that user wanted to look at Straight Content, They Would Of Searched For It.
