1. Tan & thin shemales.
2. Good amount of content.
1. Average site design.
"They're shemales, they're Brazilian, and they're masturbating. If that sounds good then check it out." |

Brazilian Shemales Club's free tour has a fairly generic look to it; nothing about it is flashy or unique. The member's area is along those lines too, the design isn't overly exciting. This is about as simple and straightforward a site as you can get. The first part is dedicated to the picture galleries and the second part to the videos. I suppose the one twist the site offers in comparison to other shemale sites is that these ladies are Brazilian. Of course I can't authenticate that, all I can say is most have very tanned skin and South American sounding names.
The site layout makes the amount of content seem small but the truth is there's somewhere over 20,000 pictures and 136+ video clips. Those numbers aren't bad at all. Still, I do dislike aspects of both the pictures and videos. Every picture opens in a new browser window, I always find that annoying and wish sites would avoid doing that. Other than that the pictures are pretty good quality and sized at 600x800. As for the videos, I don't know what these guys were thinking when they picked formats. Clips come in Real Player or Divx AVI. That means you can't really stream anything. The Real clips are average looking at best (they call it standard quality); the Divx ones are the high quality and are significantly better looking movies. To me MPEG and/or WMV files are the norm and are almost expected by surfers so Brazilian Shemales isn't helping itself by not offering either of those formats.
I was surprised that a large percentage of content revolves around solo masturbation. I expected to find more hardcore. A large chunk of the action, in both the pics and vids, is shemales playing by themselves. Some hardcore is available including blowjobs and banging but most of what you'll find is shemales getting themselves off and posing for the camera. When it comes to attractiveness I'll have to direct you to browse the free tour for a sampling of the shemales. I wouldn't even know how to begin to judge a hot shemale from an ugly one. One thing the tour does well is give several pages of samples.
Updates come once every three to four days. No extra content is offered. I can't remember the last time I ran across a site with absolutely no bonus material. That's probably one of the reasons the site design appears so simple. The $22.95/mo price is reasonable, I can't applaud it for being a great price but it isn't overly expensive either.

Brazilian Shemales Club is still at it. The updates keep on coming every three or four days with the majority of the episodes focusing on solo shemale performances. Over the past few months I see four hardcore shoots mixed in among the softcore ones. Video formatting was a complaint of mine last time and now I see the main formats as WMV and DIVX instead of Real Player and DIVX. That's a definite improvement and it'll be noted in my download score.
I'm still no expert on shemales but they're still consistently tan and thin in just about every episode. The updates have increased the overall amount of content which is an improvement too. One final change would be the price. I must say it's a tiny change, just a couple bucks more than it used to be.
Score increased from 71.7 to 76.0.
