People Who Support a Winning Political Candidate More Likely to Look at Porn after Election

Democracy Feels So Good!

People who support a winning candidate are more likely to look at porn in the weeks following the election than those who backed the losing horse.

To prove this, US researchers point to porn related web searches that rose from supporting states after a big win.

In 2004, those from red states increased their searches by 2% and in 2006 and 2008, those from blue states upped their porn consumption by 3% in the weeks following the election.

While 2-3% doesn’t sound like a lot, the researchers point out that a 3% increase in America equates to an additional 60 million porn queries per week.
