America runs on anal. It\u2019s true! What many people consider a niche or fetish sexual act is actually a common practice by couples regardless of their sexual orientation. And those who don\u2019t do it are certainly curious, as anal sex videos are some of the most popular on Pornhub. Our friends at Vice<\/a> asked us to take a deeper look into anal, and we were only to happy to oblige.
\n
\nThe Kinsey Institute’s famous sexual surveys in the 1960s found that 9% of men, and 28% of women engaged in anal sex at least once. Fast forward to 1990 and they found that those numbers had grown to 27% of males and 24% of females. A more recent survey in 2002 found that 34% of men and 30% of women had engaged in anal sex.<\/p>\n

As we dug into Pornhub\u2019s data, we decided to group our insights into two different categories. Our \u201cass\u201d data consists of physical appearances and includes terms like booty, butt and buttocks. Our \u201canal\u201d data is more specific to the physical act of anal sex and include search terms like ass play and butt fuck.<\/p>\n

Getting Cheeky With It<\/b><\/h2>\n

Before we dive too deep into anal, we figured we should ease in with some general ass stats to appreciate the glorious Gluteus Maximus.<\/p>\n

The most popular search terms relating to backsides are \u201cbig ass<\/a>\u201d (nsfw), followed by \u201canal\u201d, \u201cbig booty\u201d and \u201cbubble butt\u201d. Of the Top 20 searches, over half are related to size including \u201chuge ass\u201d, \u201cfat ass\u201d and \u201cbig booty white girls\u201d. When it comes to butts, it would seem that bigger is better!<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-ass-anal-top-search-terms2\"<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re curious what \u201conion booty\u201d (#17) means, we recommend searching for it on Pornhub<\/a> (NSFW) to see some shapely results. However, we do like that the Urban Dictionary describes onion booty as \u201can ass so nice it can make a grown man cry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Videos on Pornhub are categorized as either non-gay or gay since many search terms can apply to both. We were curious to see who searched for anal more often \u2013 gay people or straight people. Turns out, 5.78% of gay searches involve ass related terms and 7.24% for straight (non-gay) searches.<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-ass-anal-gay-straight-searches\"<\/p>\n

Anal comprises only 1.34% of gay searches but 3.60% of straight searches. Although Pornhub\u2019s traffic for gay videos is lower than non-gay, proportionally speaking, it would seem that straight users are more interested in ass and anal than gay users.<\/p>\n

Going Deep Into Anal<\/b><\/h2>\n

Now that we\u2019re warmed up a bit, let\u2019s get into the anal stats. These are terms that involve the physical act of anal sex. The #1 search term is of course \u201canal\u201d and the rest of the list is comprised of more specific searches like \u201cdouble anal\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-anal-only-top-search-terms2\"<\/p>\n

Three terms have to do with inexperience including \u201cfirst time anal\u201d (#2), \u201cfirst anal\u201d and \u201canal virgin\u201d. The two most searched for races are \u201cebony anal\u201d and \u201casian anal\u201d. Three pornstars make the anal top list including \u201cMadison Ivy\u201d, \u201cLisa Ann\u201d and \u201cAlexis Texas\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-videos-tagged-anal\"<\/p>\n

We were curious to see how many videos on Pornhub actually contained anal sex. For straight (non-gay) videos we found that 7% were tagged with the word anal. 35% of gay videos were tagged as including anal sex along with 32% of shemale videos and 41% of bisexual videos. Anal is consistently one of the most popular video categories<\/a> (NSFW) viewed on Pornhub as well.<\/p>\n

Ass, Anal and Adversaries<\/b><\/h2>\n

Proportionally speaking, Pornhub gets more requests for anal sex from Russia<\/a> than any other country. The United States likes ass a bit more than Canada<\/a>, but when it comes to anal sex, Canada likes to top the Americans.<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-anal-search-countries-world\"<\/p>\n

For a bit of fun, we thought we\u2019d do a comparison of countries the United States<\/a> has invaded \u2013 or in some cases penetrated (their borders). Russia is still on top, but Afghanistan edges out the Americans just slightly.<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-anal-search-countries-war\"<\/p>\n

Iraq is less inclined towards ass, but they do like anal more than the Americans. WW2 adversaries Germany<\/a> and Italy<\/a> both enjoy anal more than the United States, but less so in Japan.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Ass Don\u2019t Tell<\/b><\/h2>\n

Americans clearly appreciate a nice bit of booty, so we broke down the \u201cass\u201d related searches state by state to see who like backsides the best. Kansas and Alaska came out on top \u2013 ironic considering they are two states with ass in their name.<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-ass-search-terms-state\"<\/p>\n

There doesn\u2019t seem to be any region where butts are significantly more popular. The results in most states were pretty close, but Hawaii did have a substantial drop at the tail end of our list.<\/p>\n

So what about \u201canal\u201d sex searches? Montana jumps to the #1 spot, and Alaska holds their #2 position. Hawaii once again comes behind all the other states.<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-anal-search-terms-state\"<\/p>\n

As of 2014, 17 U.S. States still have laws banning sodomy including Mississippi, Alabama, North and South Carolina, Florida and Louisianna. Most of these anti-anal states actually appear at the rear end of our search list. The most significant exception is Idaho who takes the #4 spot on our list.<\/p>\n

Pornstar Patootie<\/b><\/h2>\n

Some pornstars are known for their anal videos, yet others don\u2019t do anal at all. But whenever a pornstar does anal for the first time, it generates a lot of buzz and the video skyrockets in popularity. Pornstar names are often combined with ass or anal related search terms to find just those videos. The most searched for pornstar rump is \u201cMadison Ivy<\/a>\u201d (NSFW) followed by \u201cLisa Ann<\/a>\u201d (NSFW) and \u201cAlexis Texas<\/a>\u201d (NSFW).<\/p>\n

\"pornhub-ass-anal-top-female-pornstars\"<\/p>\n

Even male pornstars are combined with ass and anal searches. The first part of our list are pornstars known for their straight videos, and the second part are considered gay pornstars.<\/p>\n

“Mandingo<\/a>” (NSFW) comes out on top by a pretty wide stretch, as we\u2019re sure he leaves any woman willing to do an anal video with him.<\/p>\n
