First Impressions:

Birchplace initially seems like a massive emporium for all thinks kinky and debauched…… maybe a little jumbled up, but all encompassing. The site covers those wishing to meet for free…. those wishing to find escorts and pro dommes, and even those wishing to buy photosets, home made videos etc…. and even has its ‘own’ clothing shop. The site has a large worldwide membership and very busy chatrooms with the option of webcam chat even for the non paying members.

Suggestions:

Once you look further into this site it does seem to be a tool used largely by escorts and those wishing to make money rather than a contact site…. There are options to send money to other users which i can only assume is primarily a ‘deposit’ system. However the site does have an awful lot available, even from the non members perspective….. Video chat, messaging, full search facility, so from that perspective it is hard to knock the site itself for anything other than how it allows its users to operate the site functions…. Not that I am knocking people for advertising their services, but it does detract slightly from the sites use as a contact site for those looking to meet ‘for fun’ only.
