why does Brazil have a large TS community?

[caminds]

Most TS porn is from Brazil, and a lot of TS porn actresses are also. Why is this so? Are TS' more accepted there?

The percentage of the population that is transsexual is relatively the same throughout the world. In Brazil, the trans community is simply more open than in many other places.

It's more related to production costs.
and from wiki- In the last 10?15 years, numerous American and European actors such as Rocco Siffredi, Nacho Vidal, and John Stagliano have visited Brazil to produce movies which, like most American pornographic productions, are shot without condoms (contrary to native laws requiring them).

Rocco's house is also involved in shemale movie production hence you see a large number of titles from Brazil.
