PORNFILE: BAILEY JAY

She has gone by many names over the years, but there is only one you need to know her as now; Bailey Jay. She is one of the most popular TS performers in the industry and is breaking down the clearly established walls that have existed between straight, gay and TS porn. Her rising popularity over the last few years is tied in with the inexorable exposure of several subcultures that have been steadily bubbling to the mainstream this century, specifically anime, cosplay and TS. She has been interviewed in major media outlets such as Rolling Stone and even starred in a pilot shot for HBO.

It’s a pretty far cry from where she was just 10 years ago. Growing up a socially awkward kid in rural Virginia brings with it its own trials and tribulations, but the person who would become Miss Bailey Jay Granger forged her own path and has become a better person for it.

Otakon Convention: The Birth of LineTrap

The path to Baily Jay begins in 2007. A big fan of anime and cosplay, she attended the popular Otakon convention in Virginia. One of the more anticipated events that year was a panel hosted by 4chan, the (in)famous message board. The line for the panel was massive and unwieldy, creating tension and restlessness amongst the attendees. As she explained in a blog post, the overwhelming misogyny being expressed by the male patrons in line was palpable:
The queue for the panel grew incredibly rowdy, and some of the 4Chan citizens spoiled it for the rest. Young males were blocking the females toilets shouting “tits or get the fuck out” – a popular 4Chan expression to ‘entice’ women on 4Chan to post topless pictures of themselves – it was uncontrollably noisy, and a few people decided to march up and down the waiting area, sieg hailing to the Russian national anthem shouting “fuck yeah”.

Looking to have some fun and cause some mischief of her own, she flashed her breasts to the crowd and immediately drawing attention and camera flashes from the throng. A representative from Otakon approached her and asked her to stop, to which she replied, “It’s okay, I’m a boy.” Pictures and videos of the event and Bailey quickly began to spread on 4Chan. She was given the name of LineTrap by the board members because she was the one in line who “trapped” the boys into thinking she was a girl. Clearly not a flattering moniker, but Bailey had fun with it and continued to post images and teasingly taunt those on the board.

Her decision to work in adult was pretty matter of fact, “I needed rent and I was a sexy trans woman. I was pretty much the “piece of ass” among my straight guy friends. So when I was approached it was pretty clear I needed to take the offer.” She began appearing on the Grooby site ShemaleYum under the moniker Harley Quinn, after the delightfully manic girlfriend of The Joker.

Shemale Yum: Harley Quinn

She was a neophyte to TS porn, admitting the first scene she ever watched was her own, “I was so nervous. I was 19 and had some very unsavory associations with being sexual and being trans.” The nerves slowly subsided and she began to display the charisma that has won over her considerable fan base.  “I was beet-red and nervous while watching myself,” she says of her first experience, “But I started really enjoying it and watch it to this day from time to time. ” It didn’t take long before she was getting noticed on the scene and she signed with SMC Productions for her official site, TS-BaileyJay.com. She quickly set herself off from the rest of the pack, winning a RabbitsReviews RISE Award in 2011 for best Trans performer and the AVN Award for Transsexual Performer of the Year in both 2010 and 2011.

While straight porn has garnered a semblance of mainstream acceptance and niches like BDSM have become hot-button topics in the news, there are many wildly popular sub-cultures of porn that are left in the dark. And despite Transsexual and related terms among some of the more popular search topics online, public acceptance of TS porn and performers like Kimber James, Buck Angel and Bailey Jay is decidedly underground. However, that could begin to change.

The average person today has seen more pornography than at any other time in history and with that brings changes in what we like. Our minds expand and an openness to novelty and niches left undiscovered now become fertile ground for people to explore. Twenty years ago, the possibility of BBW performers like Samantha 38G and Maria Moore, or over-35 performers like Vicky Vette and Deauxma, breaking outside of their niche and becoming household names in porn seemed difficult to imagine; Pornography, pre-internet, only celebrated and promoted women that fell into a rather narrow box. That box has been destroyed and many popular sites like Evil Angel regularly add trans content and networks like the VNA Army have added trans solo-performer sites like Eva Lin Live.  So will Trans porn rise in stature? Bailey believes a sea change is impending:

“I’m already seeing it on the tube sites. It’s starting to blend. I mean straight men watch videos of big strong men fucking cis-women [women who are born as women and identify as women]. How is it “gayer” to watch a trans-woman pleasure a cis-woman? I think that would warm them up to it. Then before you know it they’re whacking it to a t-girl on t-girl scene!”

Public acceptance of trans people is slowly but steadily improving, with people like Chaz Bono, Lana Wachoski and Laura Jane Grace from Against Me! putting public faces to a group of people who were previously seen in the mainstream as strictly a sexual fetish or a plot twist or punch line in movies (think of the bar scene in Trainspotting or the pivotal moment in The Crying Game).

And though she is a pornstar and has sex on camera, Bailey has shown herself to be more than a one-dimensional caricature in her many mainstream appearances and her outspoken beliefs on Trans acceptance resulted in her being added to the annual Trans 100 list for, “making a difference in the day to day lives of trans people in a tangible way.”

One of her more high-profile appearances is due to her longstanding association with the comedian Jim Norton, who selected her to be the “Official Girl” of The Jim Norton Show on Vice.com.

“Jim is my dear friend. We did the You Know What Dude Podcast a few years ago and he took me aside and told me how funny he thought I was. Like a sincere compliment. I started guest co-hosting his advice show The Jim Norton Show and then he asked me to be on The Jim Norton Show for Vice.”

In the pilot episode of show, guest Mike Tyson expresses his interest in Bailey and looks at her with just a bit of lust in his eyes. He asks about her and gazes at her for some time. This moment, the former heavyweight boxing champion and a symbol of masculinity, openly and unabashedly flirting with a Trans woman in public speaks to growing level of acceptance in society. That, plus Bailey Jay is sexy as fuck.

Bailey is currently working on her memoirs and hosts several podcasts, including The Bailey Jay Show, The Trans Witching Hour and Sugar And Spice.  She continues to update her site.
