Bisexual People LOVE Porn, XHamster Study Reveals |
Bisexual people apparently love porn. Like, a lot. Or, at least the ones who frequent tube site xHamster do. In the results of a study released February 26, xHamsterâs vice president, Alex Hawkins, wrote, âDoes watching too much porn make you gay? No, but it might make you bi.â That statement canât be proven by the study,which surveyed over 11,000 users of the site. The results are still being sorted through by data analysts, but xHamster did find a direct, clear correlation between bisexuality and frequent porn use. First, the sheer number of bisexual xHamster users was startling: 22.36% of American survey respondents self-identified that way, while a scant 4.05% identified as homosexual and only 67.77% called themselves straight (the remainder were broken down into asexual and âotherâ). When broken down by the two most plentiful genders, the study revealed that nearly 40% of women xHamster porn watchers swing both ways, along with a full 20% of men. âThese are much higher numbers than have been previously reported,â marveled Hawkins. And the correlation between porn watching and bisexuality are just getting started. As the New York Post put it, âthe more porn you watch, the likelier you are to go both ways.â The study revealed that, of once-a-week porn viewers, only 13% were bi…but that percentage steadily increased with the intake of smut. Over 30% of viewers who watch porn multiple times a day identified as bi. But…why? The study canât tell us. But, at YNOT, we have a few theories. Maybe itâs because watching porn exposes you to people of multiple genders being sexualâand shows that you can enjoy it all. Maybe itâs because bisexual people see themselves reflected in media so rarely that they turn to porn for representation. Or maybe itâs because bisexual people really are hornier than everybody else! Or, as Hawkins speculated to the Post, âThe more porn you watch, the more you may think, âHey, thatâs actually somewhat of a turn-on. Maybe Iâm not as totally straight, or gay, as I thought.ââ |
