Pride Insights 2024

June is Pride month and when pride.com asked our statisticians to pull some data and see what kind of gay porn people like best, they were happy to oblige!

Most Viewed Categories Worldwide

Worldwide, the dominating categories differed between the continents. However, it was hard to deny the Twink takeover from South America, Russia, and much of Europe. Bareback was the hottest category in North America. Australia had a special interest in Straight Guys. Africa saw a diverse range of popular categories, including Black most of all, but also Twink, Creampie, Hunk, Cartoon, and Asian.

Most Viewed Categories by State

On the western side of the United States, the Bareback category was most popular, going all the way down the coast and into Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, and Wyoming. The midwest enjoyed the Straight Guys category as well as the Black category, and a bit of the Twink category. The South was most interested in the Black category. The Twink category also got the most love in North and South Dakota, Kansas, and a few states on the east coast.

Top Relative Categories by State 

When our statisticians broke down the top relative searches by state, they found a diverse and interesting array of tastes across America. Thematically, Minesota had a special interest in “farm hand” and Michigan liked “farmer” while Wyoming liked “vintage cowboys,” all showing a special interest in men working the land. There was also some love for older men, with Tennessee liking “grandpa jerks,” Iowa being interested in “old man solo” and South Carolina liking “older men.” 

Twinks were popular in Kansas, Alabama, and Connecticut. Rhode Island liked searching for “construction workers” while over in New Jersey they liked “country boys.” Nipples got some love in both Alaska and Wisconsin and in Florida they couldn’t get enough “feet worship.”
