Today your faithful reviewer (that's me) is checking out RawGFs.com, another one of the "user-submitted girlfriend" sites that have become all the rage lately it seems. The site features submitted pics and vids of authentic amateur babes in both softcore and hardcore situations. At first glance, this stuff looks pretty genuine (sometimes these sites are somewhat, or mostly, fake) so I'm psyched to take a look inside. The Raw GFs members area has a pretty clearcut setup. They've got the latest and top-rated updates linked up on the main page and a menu across the top hooks you up with the archived content. It looks like they update daily here, which is great. The RAW GFs content is divided up into Pics, Vids, Mixed Pics, and Webcam Pics (screencaps from webcam footage). The Girlfriends Pics section contains sets featuring multiple photos of the same girl while the Mixed Pics area looks like it contains sets comprised of various shots of a bunch of different girls. One thing that seems to be sorely lacking here is some kind of search feature. A category or keyword search (or even a separate section for softcore and hardcore material) would be great to help you find what you're looking for much more quickly. As it is, you just have to page through the archive until something catches you eye.
Anyhow, let's check out the content. Currently the archive here is quite large with over 1,500 photosets, 30,000+ pics, and 500+ videos. As expected with a site like this, quality, size, and pics per set is variable. Sometimes there are 15 or 20 images in a photoset, others boast 40-50 or more. Size is all over the map...some shots I saw were as small as 400 x 600 (or even less) while others range up to 900 x 1200 or a huge 1700 x 2200. Photo quality as well is a mixed bag...some of the pics are grainy, self-shot pics taken using the girl's cell phone or shot in the mirror so you get some glare or blurriness. Others have lighting issues; sometimes unintended, sometimes intended (to make the pics seem artsy). Still others are actually very good quality and are clear, well-lit, and not grainy or blurry at all. Having had some experience with these type of sites though, it seems fans of this genre are always willing to sacrifice some quality for amateur authenticity. Checking out the videos, they offer Flash versions for streaming and AVI versions for downloading. Quality, as you might have guessed already, is...variable! Some vids look pretty bad, others are average, and others look quite good. It really depends on which one you pick. Because of the amateur nature of the footage, the vids are either shot point-of-view style or from a fixed location (i.e. there's no 3rd guy serving as a cameraman as in professional porn). Some of the vids are actually shot using the girl's webcam so they have the feel of a webcam show, except instead of a porn set as a backdrop, it's the chick's bedroom or dorm room.
In keeping with the variability theme, the subject matter here features quite an eclectic collection of stuff. You'll see everything from softcore posing to full-blown boy-girl hardcore. The softcore material ranges from totally no-nude shots...candids of girls in bikini on the beach, lingerie pics taken by a boyfriend or husband, self-shot photos taken by the girl herself (either in the mirror or holding the camera out myspace style) while she's wearing bra and panties or just sexy street clothes, even pics of a a girl on vacation with her guy...to topless and full nude shoots where the chick does a sexy striptease and you get to check out her cute titties or sweet pussy. Most of the harder stuff, perhaps predictably, seems to be in the video section...here you'll see girls masturbating, fingering their assholes, fisting themselves, sucking dick, licking balls, and getting fucked. Cumshots include creampies, loads shot into the chick's mouth, and lots of facials (one vid I particularly enjoyed was a montage of this hot amateur blonde getting like 15 different facials from the same dude). Of course, with these sort of sites, the question that's always asked is, is it "real" or is this just professional content that's shot to look "amateurish". For this site, I'd say this material is authentically amateur...I didn't recognize any of the girls and the quality of most of the stuff definitely lends credence to it being truly homegrown. So if you're looking for the real deal, you should be very happy here.
In addition to the photos and videos, the site also offers access to 24 additional video feed type sites. These are hardcore and mainly in the reality genre...you'll see niches like anal, girl-girl, threesomes, teen, MILF, Asian, interracial, asslicking, orgies, gangbangs, and more.

Raw GFs is one of the better "girlfriends" sites I've reviewed when it comes to authenticity but, even so, the quality could probably be a bit better throughout the archive. As I mentioned in the review, many fans of this genre would rather have "real" than "great quality", so this might not even be that big of an issue to you. The archive here is truly huge and daily updates should continue to grow things rapidly; as a result, I'd like to see some browse/search features added to help users find what they want more easily. All in all, another nice addition to the "girlfriend" niche...if you like your porn authentic and homegrown, Raw GFs is a great place to check out.
