Cam Categories Update: Adding Trans / Ladyboy into the review

Hello folks, John is here again, in our previous post Streaming Sins: Sam’s No-BS Review of Live Cam, we received tons of feedback. The loudest comment was: “Hey, where are the trans / ladyboy categories?” Fair point!

We promised to cover the full spectrum of categories, so here’s the missing piece. Consider this post a continuation, and of course, with a few banana 🍌🍌🍌 jokes along the way.

True story: the first time I stumbled into a live trans cam room, I thought I’d stay "just five minutes to see what’s going on". Two hours later, I was still there, chatting, laughing, and kinda forgetting I had groceries melting in the car. Lesson learned.

And the numbers back it up. Searches like “trans cam show” or "ladyboy live chat"  - they’re consistent, high-demand queries across multiple countries.

So ... let's discuss

Why Trans / Ladyboy Categories Matter

Cam traffic is massive, and one thing is always true: people want variety. If you skip over trans / ladyboy categories, you’re basically ignoring a huge part of what viewers are actually looking for.

The numbers speak for themselves: terms like trans or ladyboy or kathoey or shemale or transgender have steady demand across multiple countries (Please review our post about that).

How Major Platforms Handle It

Categories inside categories, again. We did a little research (don’t worry, it was the fun kind), and it turns out the most popular categories are (across top platforms):

• Mobile Live

• Recordable

• HD+

• Masturbation

• Ass F***ing

• Anal Play

• Dildo Play

• Chatting

• Asian Massage

• Ass to Mouth

• Ass Fingering

• Cum in Mouth

• Blowjob

• Cumming

• Creampie

• Jerking

• Cumshot

• Cum on Face

• Cum on Ass

• Cock Sucking

• Dancing

• Massage

• Handjob

• Butt F***

Some of the biggest cam sites, like CamSoda, keep things simple. Instead of hyper-detailed categories, they let users filter by:

• Ethnicity: White, Asian, Latina, Ebony

• Body Type: Lean, Average, Muscular

• Hair: Blonde, Brunette, Black, Redhead

• Tags: Trimmed, Uncut, Big Tits, Self suck, Milk prostate

That approach is clean and easy, but here’s the catch: people who are searching for something more specific might never find you. Imagine looking up "recordable" or "creampie" or "thai" the platform only shows a generic Asian filter. Not exactly helpful, right?

Numbers

You know me, I’m a numbers guy… well, kind of. At least when the numbers come from cam platforms and not my electricity bill. So, I went digging around the big stats (source: CamsCB).

• Girls/Female: 199,728 models

• Men: 265,821 models

• Couples: 35,780 models

• Transsexuals: 27,359 models

Now, let’s put this into perspective: 27K+ trans performers might look smaller compared to the ocean of girls and guys. But hey - that’s basically an entire city of people, all live (not simultaneously. Sometimes, when you stop and think about how many people around the world are jerking off at the same time, the world suddenly feels a little brighter ☀️.), all streaming, all waving at you through webcams. Compare it with Couples, and the numbers are right up there - even bigger than many niche categories that platforms highlight.

What does that mean? Simple: ignoring trans cams is like skipping dessert at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Sure, you can do it, but why would you deny yourself the sweet stuff?

If you’re the kind of person who loves digging deeper into stats (you know, spreadsheets, graphs, all that serious stuff), the folks over at DivaTraffic - Webcam Model Statistics 2025: Industry Insights and Data Overview.

Banana-Style Takeaway

• Trans / ladyboy section = more people can actually find what they’re looking for.

• Specific categories (like ladyboy anal play) = better chances to stand out, means good for models.

• Niche focus = it’s popular because demand always creates supply. The deeper question is why this happens - but maybe we will save that analysis for one of our upcoming posts.

For us: the cam industry isn’t slowing down - it’s expanding, diversifying, and attracting huge audiences across every category, including trans and ladyboy performers. We live in a new era, and this sensation is part of our reality, whether we like it or not.

Cheers!
