Pornhub reveals world’s most-viewed gay porn categories – and twinks are no longer on top in the US

It wouldn’t be Pride month without Pornhub’s Pride insights, and the results show twinks are no longer the tops for gays in the US.

At this time each year, the porn website shares a report on the viewing habits of the gay community, revealing all the need-to-know stats about what people are searching for, what categories they are clicking on and the adult performers they like most.

In December, in its annual review, Pornhub revealed that for the second successive year “twinks” was the gay term most people searched for on the site. During Pride, the young, slim, mainly hairless men again dominated in terms of the most-viewed gay categories in each US state and overall favourite categories.

This Pride month, however, tastes seem to be have changed – at least in North America.

The results show Pornhub users in Canada have been searching for men who are particularly well-endowed while in the US there has been more interest in Black adult performers.

In large part of South America, twinks were still doing well but Brazilians joined Canada in wanting to see large appendages while in Chile, Black was the most viewed category. 

The Black category was also extremely popular across much of Africa, with some nations having particular interest in bareback and twink content.

Europeans, it seems, were happy with their twinks, as many people searched for Troye Sivan lookalikes.

In Japan, local content was searched for the most, while Asian material, more generally, was viewed in many former Soviet republics. In Australia, bareback was the most popular term. New Zealanders disagreed with their neighbours – definitely not for the first time – with most people opting for the ever-popular “twinks”.

Other categories that got a look in this year include group, daddy and cartoon.
