Video and Post by El Greco
Transsexual Cast: Vo D'Balm, Sabrina, Valentine
Male Cast: Paul Carrigan, Tom Moore
Female Cast: Nikki Darlin
Note on cast credits: The cover has Nikki Darlin, Sabrina, Tom Moore, Valentine and Vo D'Balm listed. The opening credits list Vo D'Balm, Paul, Sabrina and Tom. Trying to figure out who is who took more time than watching and reviewing the DVD. I finally deferred to the AVN mini review and hope I got the TS and female talent right.
Initial Expectations: I picked this up as a rental without checking any reviews. It appeared to be the typical low budget wall-to-wall production that is common for this genre. I got it because it was one of the few titles that had a female in it (other than the Females & She-Males series).
Initial Reaction: Uh-oh. Not Paul Carrigan. So that's who Tom Moore is. These are not two of the most prized male specimens on the planet. I've seen them in plenty of bisexual titles, and have usually been a bit disappointed. But wait. Paul is actually looking better than usual. I don't know if it's the lighting, filters, camera work or cheap beer...
Who Should Watch It: Anyone looking for a good she-male video with a lot of variety.
Who Should Avoid It: Anyone who doesn't like anal sex.
Audio/Video Quality: I'm not an expert at picking up video problems, but there was nothing that jumped out at me. The audio was fairly consistent, though I did adjust it up and down a bit to keep it from bothering the rest of the house. The sound dropped out a few times in scene 3, but I think this was a post production or equipment problem.
Music: None thank goodness.
Disc Problems: None.
Opening: The usual disclaimers, custodian of records, etc., followed by 2 web site ads and 4 phone sex ads before getting to the main Title menu. The Scene Selection menu has 4 scenes with a screen shot of each.
Comments: Trans Gender Bender 2 lives up to its title. With the exception of having fully functional male equipment, the transsexuals are definitely 'she'. The traditional male-female roles are played out and reversed. There is enough dirty talk to be believable without being excessive. Everyone, males included, express a real audible sexual response. There is no overdubbed music or fake female moaning. Condom use is consistent throughout. As with most of the newer bisexual and she-male titles made in the U.S., there is no oral come shots.
Scene 1: Paul is in the weight room having a workout. Vo comes in and seductively teases him. He tries to resist but she challenges him to take her with his strength. He works on her instead of the weights with some titty sucking. She gives him a blow job and he audibly expresses his approval. There is plenty of dirty talk, and Paul buffs her butt with high energy. Paul is nude, while Vo is wearing black stockings and garter with thigh boots. Vo keeps telling Paul to give it to her hot 'pussy'. There is no wood from Vo as she pulls on her dark uncut big 'clit'. They change to cowgirl and she gets some good wood, then reverse cowgirl on the weight bench. Paul lies back for a blowjob then jerks his load on her tits. Vo doesn’t come. :(
There is a very short interlude with some shots of the cast and makeup team.
Scene 2: Sabrina and a shaved Tom are in the bedroom. Tom gets a blow job with Sabrina squatting. The camera changes angle often enough for this to stay interesting. She licks his balls - good close-up. They kiss, then Tom rubs his dick against her big 'clit'. He gives her some oral attention. They talk and moan and respond well to each other. He's got wood, she's got wood, I've got wood. He's moaning the way I do when I go down on my wife :). They rub dick on 'clit' while kissing, then move to the bed. Tom lies back as Sabrina kneels and strokes into his mouth. Tom also pulls and strokes himself. They shift into 69 with Sabrina on top. They move back and forth between positions. The lighting and camera angles are good, and there is definitely chemistry. Sabrina dons a condom to do anal on Tom - doggie style. I like how she grips his white T-shirt to ride him. They change positions with Tom lying on his back at the edge of the bed. Sabrina is standing and doing him missionary. Tom strokes himself to keep his wood going (I know I've still got wood). There are lots of full body shots and close-ups. They slow down and Sabrina lies on top of him for some intimate kissing.
Scene 3: Nikki comes in and Tom leaves. Sabrina starts sucking Nikki's tits, then Nikki lies back for Sabrina to return the favor. Nikki gives Sabrina some nice oral attention on her big 'clit'. They 69 with Sabrina on top. Sabrina eats Nikki's shaven pussy and she has a nice hard clit. Nikki says, "You want to put that in my pussy?" Sabrina's sporting some good wood and does her in a kneeling missionary. They change to reverse cowgirl, and Nikki energetically fingers her clit to orgasm (of course, you never really know). Nikki dons a pink gel strap-on to do Sabrina doggie. "You sure I'm not too big for you? You don't have a virgin 'cunt' there?" Tom comes back in to join for a three way. Nikki bends over to suck Sabrina's big 'clit'
while getting it doggy from Tom. He spit's for some extra lube and slams Nikki good as Sabrina masturbates. Sabrina and Tom come on Sabrina's belly. Nice shot!
Scene 4: We are back in the weight room, and Vo is lifting weights. Valentine comes in and the weights are forgotten. Vo gives Valentine some nice titty sucking, nibbling and biting. Valentine sits on the bench to blow Vo. Vo titty fucks Valentine, then back to the blow job while Valentine feels her tits. Valentine lies back on the weight bench to get anal from Vo. This is an intense scene. Valentine loses some uncut wood, but is obviously in rapture land. There is nothing fake about this scene. Valentine turns over for some doggy. "Oh God. Just fuck me like that!" Vo jerks off to a spray on her belly, and is still rock hard.

Overall: This is actually one of the best she-male videos I've seen to date. It is wall-to-wall sex with just enough acting and dialog to set up the scenes and keep them moving. I can't think of anything about it that I didn't like. There is very good chemistry between all of the performers. The sex is hot all the way through, with a few intimate moments. The lighting and audio (except for scene 3) are good through out. The camera work is good, panning in and out, moving around, and alternating between full body shots and close-ups. I didn't get bored once. It doesn't aspire to be anything more than it is, just fun people having great sex.

Note to Midnight Video: The cast credits really gave me problems. It would also be nice to see credits for the people making the video.
