Overview:
The Brits aren't exactly known for their sexually restrained forms of entertainment. Sure, Fawlty Towers was often about stereotypically English sexual timidness, but Basil Fawlty himself fondled at least two women's' breasts in the shows legendary run (inadvertently, of course). Then, of course, you have Monty Python, Benny Hill, Coupling and Page 3 of The Sun.

Not exactly the picture of high-class fun, these Brits, are they? Funny then, that Only Tease, one of the best "tasteful softcore" porn sites online, hails from England.

Designed to titillate your sexual curiosity more than blast you in the face with its lewdness and crudeness, this is one site that shows near constant restraint with its content.

There's nary a dildo, gape or creampie in sight. With no hardcore content (none, zero, zilch, don't go looking for it 'cause it ain't there), Only Tease has to rely on the beautiful faces (and bodies!) of their models and the tasteful professionalism of their photographers to get your blood pumping below the belt.

Navigation around Only Tease is so easy even Manuel (Fawlty Towers' incompetent Barcelonan waiter) could manage it. The simplest way to find the content you require is to peruse the model index pages. With a name and headshot for each girl it should be fairly easy to find a model you're a bit keen on. Clicking her name or likeness will lead you to her model info page which consists of links and info for all her scenes (photo and video), some vital statistics (bust, weight, hips, height, star sign) and even a random factoid (Amy G loves it with the lights off). You can see how many images and videos currently feature each model and easily allocate a certain amount of your browsing time accordingly. What convenience!

As it focuses mainly on still photographs, the site definitely has a lot to offer the softcore photography fan. Now with more than 585,000 pics, the photo galleries make up the majority of Only Tease. With recently added features such as "Ultra Large" image downloads, things appear to still be on the way up. As for the images themselves, they can be viewed individually or downloaded as zip archives. The zips come in three sizes: Standard Large, Extra Large and the aforementioned Ultra Large resolution schemes (1000, 2000, and 3000 pixels respectively). Your favorite shots from each set can also be added to what has been dubbed a "Custom Set" of photos that can then be downloaded in zip format. If you really like the first half of Carole's college uniform set and are only interested in the shots of Anika after she's removed her blouse then these pics can be grabbed in your desired quality with this very handy feature.

Videos are obviously a secondary concern at Only Tease but aren't totally neglected with more than 1,400 clips now available. The main cause for concern in this department is in regard to the resolutions and bitrates offered. While acceptable and usually quite enjoyable, they're not up to par with the great, high quality images. It'd be a real treat to see women this naturally beautiful in a higher resolution than 640x480.

The action in the photo and video shoots is, funnily enough, only teasing. If you're strictly a hardcore fan then this isn't the site for you. That said, Only Tease really excels in its niche. The women are, as I believe I've mentioned more than twice, complete stunners and watching them slowly get their gear off is very arousing indeed. They take great delight in teasing and tantalizing their fans and occasionally only strip as far as their underwear, leaving you anxious to watch another video or check out another photo shoot. For those that doubt the erotic power this kind of slow-burn pornography holds over your loins, it really should be experienced. Every nuance of these models' bodies' holds a definite alluring quality. From the slightest hint of cleavage to a hint of ass beneath a skirt, the feminine form is really put to great use here, which is something you'll hopefully find out for yourself.

One intriguing feature of Only Tease is the FastTrack system. FastTrack is essentially a VIP members area that gives early access to content for users that involve themselves in the site in different ways (posting on the forums being the most obvious). It may frustrate those that don't have the time nor the inclination to do anything other than enjoy the content, however. Even though each member is provided with 10 FastTrack points per month to use as they wish, these may not be enough for heavy users. It's a good idea that does encourage people to participate in the community aspect of the site but it has the potential to be a nuisance for those who've paid their dues and don't want to have to wait for content to be available to them after others have already been given access.

At $24.95 per month, it's not exactly cheap as chips but it's definitely reasonable. As they say in the House of Lords, "I say, dear Sir, what be the Pros and Cons of this matter?"

Well, as always, I deliver unto you the closing arguments.

Pros:
- Gorgeous young English dames removing their clothes piece-by-piece makes for some pretty arousing browsing. The women are all beautiful, with smoking hot bodies, and appear very comfortable disrobing in front of the camera.

- Large, Extra Large and Ultra Large photo sets allow your eyes to explore every millimeter of the models' bodies' at your leisure.

- The search function works well and gives good search options, mostly for the different outfits the models wear and their body types. Some examples are Air Hostess, Bathtub, College Uniform, Equestrian/Riding Gear and the standard breast size and hair color choices.

- The community feeling that comes from reading other members' comments and suggestions on each scene and in the forums is palpable and welcoming.

- Daily updates are a most welcome feature and should keep all members checking back regularly to see what's been added.

Cons:
- The video content could really use a quality boost. With babes like these you'll want to see them in High Definition.

- While expecting to find hardcore content at a site called Only Teasing is as ignorant as expecting the knights who say "Nee!" to not say "Nee!", you might, after staring at these luscious ladies' beautiful bodies for hours on end, find yourself wishing you could go one step further and see their pussies and mouths take a thick cock. Oh, well.

Conclusion:
With very user-friendly navigation and great content being the foundations of any stellar porn site, Only Tease has a great base for their niche material. Desperately arousing and tastefully alluring, these young British babes are an asset to both the British Empire and the Internet in general. You might be able to find a better softcore teasing website, one that has more exclusive content, better video download options and cheaper membership fees, but as Burt (Dick Van Dyke) said to Jane and Michael Banks' father, Mr. Banks in Mary Poppins, "Good luck, Guv'ner!"
