Hi Kinksters!
Happy Wednesday! It’s a fine winter day, with weather and temperatures depending on your IP address (check your local weather). Every 60 seconds in Europe, a minute passes. The porn industry makes more money and generates more traffic than anything else on the planet.
If you haven’t caught on until now, today we’re talking porn. Not just porn, but the sex industry in general. Weird facts, exciting facts, a few shocks but overall information you never knew you needed. But you definitely do.
-
The sex industry is the largest and most profitable industry in the world. This includes conventional sex work, strip clubs, phone sex, and pornography. If you add to that the recent surges in hentai and animated porn, it’s highly unlikely that any other industry will ever reach or surpass the success of the porn industry.
-
An average of 13, 000 adult videos are produced every year and amass around $13 billion. Compared to Hollywood’s average of 500 movies and 9 billion revenue, that’s a lot.
-
The porn industry makes more money than all major sports leagues and associations combined. Titties and dicks are more popular than sports! Yay!
-
Not only that, the porn industry has larger revenues than top technology companies, which means that your iPhone or PC is a means to an end. A messy, spunky end. Several times a day.
-
At this very moment, an average of 30 million people are watching porn. You’re not alone!
-
In North Korea, watching porn is punishable by death. Grim.
-
Almost 50% of the Internet as we know it consists of porn and/or porn related content.
-
Studies have shown that most men are exposed to porn for the first time around the age of 10. No wonder we’re so messed up and kinky in our adult lives.
-
Presidential elections seem to influence porn consumption. I don’t even need to know more.
-
Male porn stars make much less than their female counterparts. However, they make twice or thrice more money if they do gay porn.
-
Every 40 minutes, a new porn film is born.
-
20% of Americans admit they watch porn at work. More interestingly, 70% of porn traffic occurs during working hours. So we can safely assume much more than 20% watch porn at work. Me too! (but it’s a part of my job, so I guess it makes sense).
-
Recent studies have found that teenagers from all over the world use porn to learn about real life sex. Parents are not very dependable on this topic.
-
Women watch porn too, only much less often than men.
-
Scholars at the Montreal university were unable to study men who do not watch porn because they couldn’t find any.
-
www.whitehouse.com was a porn site until 2014.
-
There is a porn video that was shot in zero gravity.
It’s beyond a doubt that the porn industry as a whole is a giant pleasure and money machine. We can only praise them for their workspamship, professionalism, and success. The world has always needed porn and it always will!
