Pornhub Study: Anal Sex Porn More Popular in Russia than Any Other Country


Apparently, folks in Russia are just as big of hypocrites as folks in America's Bible Belt.  Here in the USA, online porn use is highest in the Bible Belt even though the "godly folk" feign an aversion to all things sexual and "impure thoughts"- at least in public.  In the privacy of their homes, it's another matter.   Now, a new analysis done by Porn Hub - a site that is a clearing house of sorts for porn sites - indicates that more searches for anal sex originate in Russia than any other country.  Vladimir Putin's anti-gay laws outwardly have public support at least among the political whores in the Duma and numerous city councils, but among the populace, porn searches suggest that many, many Russians seek the proverbial forbidden fruit.  Here are highlights from The Independent:
Internet porn users in Russia are more likely to search for videos featuring anal sex than people from any other country, it has been reported.
According to user data collected by the website Pornhub, Russian users made a proportionately greater number of searches for anal-related material than anywhere else covered in the study.
The website said Russian users showed a greater preference for anal sex videos than those from Western countries including the US, UK and Canada.

Pornhub’s Insights team, which analyses the data, said in a statement: “Proportionately speaking, Pornhub gets more requests for anal sex from Russia than any other country,” according to a report by Pink News.

It came as Russia was condemned by the veteran campaigner Bob Geldof for its anti-gay laws, which have been used to make it illegal to provide education to children about homosexuality.

Speaking at the International Aids Conference in Melbourne, Australia, Geldof described the Russian President Vladimir Putin as “that brute in the Kremlin”, and criticised the country for the “disgraceful” level of its donations to the Global Fund to Fight Aids.

Even the Moscow Times noted the porn usage:
Anti-gay laws or not, Russians are statistically the most ardent consumers of anal sex pornography, according to a study by popular porn site PornHub.com.

The survey is based on traffic for the Canada-based PornHub, which currently ranks 75th on the list of the world's most popular websites, according to the Alexa.com Internet analysis site.

PornHub did not give any solid figures, saying only that "proportionally speaking, PornHub gets more requests for anal sex from Russia than any other country."
Given that Putin's unmarried, I cannot help but wonder what he searches on the Internet.  As they say, he doth protest too much!
