My personal belief is that no man is ever truly surprised when the woman he's with reveals herself to be a transsexual, a dominatrix, or a Mormon. So Mistress Berlin's question of Julian at the beginning of "Gia Darling Will Kick Your Ass!" is part of the elegant dance between domme and sub, like French Court face-saving protocol. Of course he knows he's about to get beaten, pegged, and "forced" to fellate a transsexual, but the savvy domme also knows to pretend he just fell into her clutches. See that question after the gap.
"You've no idea what you've gotten yourself into, do you?" asks Mistress Berlin, a female dominatrix palling around with transsexual diva Gia Darling, of hapless door-to-door salesman Julian when he dares to pitch her on insurance coverage in this economy. The scene opens "Gia Darling Will Kick Your Ass," a BDSM/tranny/pegging twist on classic lighthearted porn romps.
"I don't need insurance," the glorious Berlin says. "I just need a little bitch."
And that's what Julian becomes. Berlin humiliates and flogs him, and submits him to harsh questioning.
"What kind of man lets this happen to him?" she asks, already knowing the answer.
At this point I did not know what would happen. I hoped Berlin would, by some act of Providence, become naked and oiled, and that my phone would ring and I'd be called in to save the scene for straight porn fans everywhere. But I also enjoyed listening to her well-informed ad libs, and I anticipated the reveal when Darling emerged with her man-junk all a'dangle.
The most inevitable (and as any drama critic would tell you) and therefore the most satisfying line comes from Julian:
"That's not a pussy."
What follows is replicated in the rest of the movie's five scenes: hot dominatrix fucks luckless interloper with a strap-on as he blows Gia Darling or other transsexual helper, then he is allowed to jerk himself off. Dominatrices keep their clothes on but the trannies do not. The sub,missives are tarted up in skirts and panties, leather and chains.
There is a lot of eye candy for the straight audience, but no money shots in the way we normally expect them. Still, as a snapshot of the growing tranny/sissy/domme threesome subniche, the power play and (especially in Berlin's case) the dialogue are really fun.
Darling as director and performer knows to let her dommes take the lead roles in this movie, and I'm sure purists of this genre will appreciate the authentic hierarchy.
