The thing that baffles me about this is you can fetishize basically anything. Yes, we're all familiar with common fetishes depicted by Hollywood. But I mean, the entire premise of it is that a fetish is something you uniquely appreciate. So how do they draw that imaginary line of "this could be a fetish thing!" in the sand?
- Larrikin 5y agoWe actually have decent statistics on what fetishes are actually real and not just Hollywood and anecdotes. Porn hub post common search terms and even does a break down by states yearly.
- sidewndr46 5y agoI'd need to try and find more data from porn hub and other sources, but I doubt porn hub is actually indicative of society at large. For example, what percentage of porn hub's audience is male vs. female? In the US it appears only about 30% are female. https://www.pornhub.com/insights/2019-year-in-review#gender https://www.pornhub.com/insights/2019-year-in-review#gender The idea that pornographic preferences are somehow an indicator of people's actual sex lives does not follow. There is a big difference between fantasy and what people actually intend to do. For example I really enjoy psychological thrillers involving a murderer hiding in nearly plain sight. I have no intention of killing anyone, being a victim of murder, or even knowing anyone who is a victim. It's just an interesting fantasy.

Not us, not the channel presenters, not the viewers, not even their customers' customers. Not even what the actual customers really do think, just what Google thinks they might think.
