"More than
a woman/More than a woman to meeee…" Thus sang Tavares on their
Saturday Night Fever hit, but alas my hopes of disco themed porn are misplaced.
No polyester flares flapping, just flaccid dicks slapping. That's because
More Than A Woman is, as the more on-the-ball viewers will already have
surmised, a transsexual movie. As so many do, it highlights the travestis
of Brazil and plays on the little surprise these ladies pack. Wouldn't
it be funny for once to have the surprise being that they are actually
women? No? Please yourself! Here's what happens…
Sefora
A guy gets horny watching a porn film, and phones up some company, which
duly arrives in the form of Sefora, a dark-skinned, slim TS. The transaction-based
nature of the sex couldn't be more apparent as there is no kissing and
no chat. Instead, the call girl just gets down on her knees and sucks
cock, pausing to remove her scanty clothes and get out her own dick to
wank. After a lengthy oral session, which sees the guy attempt to throat
fuck her (she puts a hand up to limit him), the taciturn stud commences
pounding away interminably at Sefora's ass. They start off doggy, then
reverse cowgirl with repeated shots of the tranny's flaccid cock slapping
around. Missionary anal makes Sefora's eyes water - looks painful and
frankly just horrible. More doggy leads to a weak come shot on her chest.
There's zero excitement for me in this passionless scene. The only things
of interest are Sefora's unusual eyes. I could imagine that a guy with
eyes like that would look kind of unusual to say the least. Aside from
a little stubble, Sefora looks quite feminine. Not attractive, but feminine.
Marcia
On the other hand, I can't deny that slender Marcia looks anything other
than attractive and feminine. She still has a cock, though, which for
me is an insurmountable obstacle, no matter how hormone-shrivelled it
may be! Like Sefora, she has very small boobs. The tanned bleach blonde,
lying on a sun lounger poolside, flashing white panties, is picked up
by a young guy. They kiss before heading indoors, where Marcia seeks out
the lad's cock and gives him some expert oral treatment. He returns the
favour and then fucks her ass with gradually increasing urgency, in missionary,
doggy and reverse cowgirl. Marcia clearly takes a good deal more pleasure
in the anal sex, willingly bouncing in his lap until it all ends with
the guy dribbling his load on her stomach.
Geisa
A petite brunette girl wakes up and wanders on to the balcony, where she
finds Geisa out in the sun. Superficially Geisa appears like a typically
voluptuous Latina but her looks perhaps don't warrant close inspection
- a nasty nose job and scars on her boobs, once her top comes off, are
all too evident. Given the horror stories I've heard of the lengths to
which some Rio TS' go to achieve a feminine shape, this just puts me into
a mildly unsettled frame of mind, so let's not dwell on that.
The pair kiss and touch, and Geisa has the young woman sucking her cock
for some time, in the sun and then in the shade. Truthfully, when there's
not much that I find appealing to look at, it's pretty damn boring. The
girl strips off too, revealing pale skin and nice boobs on a slim frame.
They exchange further oral pleasures and then Geisa fucks the girl in
the pussy in several positions - the sex isn't bad, just a little awkward,
and ends with Geisa coming on the girl's chest. I don't know, they do
seem to have some fun together but it just doesn't seem like two people
who are really into each other fucking. They're just playing at
it for the camera.
Carolina
Tanned, long legged Carolina is lying sleeping on a bench on a veranda
when a shady looking young guy sneaks up, covers her mouth and kisses
her. No real hint of non-consensuality here, though, as they have a little
kiss and then head indoors where they strip off and spend some time sucking
each other's cocks and rubbing them together.
Carolina gives and the guy receives, and while she looks outwardly feminine,
Carolina actually has no breasts to speak of and close facial analysis
reveals the looks of an effeminate boy in drag rather than the looks of
a woman - there's just something in the face and especially the eyes.
In essence, then, this is really a gay scene: the guy squats on Carolina's
cock and they fuck, subsequently moving to spoons and missionary. The
interminable sodomy continues at snail's pace until the lad, who seems
to find it an eye-watering experience, spunks on his own belly and Carolina
whacks it off over him too. A total bore - there's absolutely no appeal
in this scene for me at all, but even if it sounds theoretically appealing
to you, the reality is mechanical sex and no chemistry at all.
Keyla
If that was boring, this is just grim. The guy from scene one plays a
photographer who is disgusted when he finds the model who has caused him
to pitch a tent in his trousers is actually a transsexual, and so he stuffs
his cock in the model's mouth and slaps her face. The real surprise here
is that Keyla could give anyone an erection. Deeply unfair of me, I know,
but this girl isn't even physically appealing - she's all cheap blonde
dye-job and flabby tummy and has bruises on her legs and sticking plasters
on a sore knee. She is good enough at sucking the Neanderthal guy's dick,
but this is just about where I draw the line. The scene proceeds in typical
fashion with the guy relentlessly pummelling Keyla's ass, her vestigial
penis flapping uselessly till he spunks on her chest.
Monica
Pretty much the same form here - though she's no oil painting either,
Monica looks marginally more like a woman than Keyla, even if her short
red wig is pretty silly and makes her look like a drag queen. The set-up
and sex follows a similar pattern - this time our caveman guy is pissed
off with Monica's attempts to clean his swimming pool, so he stuffs his
dick in her mouth. She sucks him, and as she does so she slips off her
vest and panties, revealing a more womanly body with implanted tits. Monica's
dick appears fully functional but it's rendered useless here as all Mr
Caveman wants to do is bang her ass in mechanistic mode until he pops
on her face.
Overall
I fully admit to being biased on the subject and so I am rating this movie
from the position of someone who needs a great deal of convincing (and
I suspect I shall never get over those shots of limp dicks, like the last
chicken in the butcher's shop, slapping around), but it's no lie to say
that if ever a movie was going to persuade me that transsexuals could
be hot, this is categorically not it.
Sure, More Than A Woman is shot, edited and presented with the basic standards
of competence that we tend to take for granted now, but that's not the
issue here. What I really disliked was the heartless, dispassionate nature
of much of the action. I am no believer in national stereotyping but if
there is such a thing as Latin passion then it's barely in evidence here.
There's very little sense that these are people who are really excited
about what they're doing or that they are giving or receiving pleasure
while doing it; it's all done as ordered. Most of the time, it doesn't
even look like fun, for God's sake!
The other thing that bemuses me is more to do with the broader appeal
of TS movies. While Marcia just about looks like a pretty girl, she and
Carolina especially are little more than a hormone tablet away from being
simply cross-dressed guys - I wonder who would buy More Than A Woman if
it were to be marketed as a transvestite rather than transsexual
movie? Whatever, far from being a ticket to an exotic garden of forbidden
delights, this is a trip to the bottom of the porno food chain, and I
have no desire to hurry back.
Note: condoms are worn for all anal/vaginal sex.
DVD Comments
By and large the picture quality varies from good to excellent - once
or twice I noticed some jaggies and it's grainy in one or two dull indoor
shots. Any conversation is in Portuguese but the dialogue recording is
not very good. The disc itself is a pretty basic affair, with chapter
menu, come shot recap option and a photo gallery.
