Trans/trans*/transgender are all valid and descriptive terms. You can include words like "tranny" and "shemale" in the SEO without using them directly. Including discussions of the terms still means using those words for the purpose of SEO.

For example:

"We are committed to featuring the highest quality trans porn featuring gorgeous trans women and the men who love them. Art porn is about ethics, so we've chosen to avoid using terms like tranny or shemale outside of a discussion context, favouring the words that respect our beautiful trans stars."

Boom. You just got your keywords in without being disrespectful. That type of discussion can be evolving on the site and, though it may seem intellectual, can be glossed over by people who see the words "hot trans woman" and start salivating. Porn can change, and big companies with affiliations to feminist organizations should be thinking critically about how we can make porn be more respected, especially when they're billing themselves as art. Art isn't just about the cameras you use. Anyone can take a DSLR and a model, but it takes a lot more to be thoughtful and respectful of the people you employ and the community you, like it or not, represent.
