I'm working on a version of the ADT price search for gaydvdtalk.com. Which categories should I include in the price search? Should I include bisexual, she-male, etc.?

Take all this with a grain of salt, but:
If I were trying to categorize gay porn into themes, I'd probably just label them Leather, General and Twink, and leave it at that. Maybe International too, though it gets really vague and hard to draw the line...
I would definately include bi and she-male categories in the search engine--though they're not strictly gay, of course. And they're usually distributed by different companies. Point is, people interested in those topics might very well look in a gay search engine before any other kind...<small>

I agree with Alan's idea. If you categorize into too many groups, it could get confusing. "International" would be a good category especially when currently there are so many European Studs on DVDs.

I would include Bi, and She-male titles in the gay search. Most stores include them in the gay category. Don't break it down any further (like International, Twink).

I plan to offer just a subset of the current set of categories from the ADT price search. I just need to pick which ones. I don't think that we can re-categorize the movies into new groups. It would make the task of maintaining the price search data significantly more difficult.
Thanks for your feedback. I hope to have this done soon.

Right. I just misunderstood your question. Didn't mean to suggest that there's any real NEED to further catagorize anything... Thanks for all your work on this.

I realized that my question was unclear after I read the responses. I do that all the time both verbally and written. (Maybe I subconsciously think that people can read my mind?)
