Ranking The World’s Most-Watched Porn Categories In 2025 | S4 EP110

New year, fresh data, and zero shame—we kick off 2026 by digging into the most-watched porn categories of 2025 and what they reveal about culture, power, and pleasure. From hentai’s fascinating origin story in censorship to the rise of ethical studios and the steady normalization of anal, we connect the dots between what people click and the stories we tell about bodies, desire, and boundaries.

We unpack why lesbian tops the charts in places like the U.S. and Australia, why MILF and step labels just won’t fade, and how Asian femdom scenes are reframing old tropes about submission and dominance. The numbers spark bigger questions: who watches the most and when, why the Philippines reports a striking share of women viewers, and how late-night viewing windows sync across time zones. We also zoom in on formats—amateur and POV for intimacy, JOI and ASMR for sensory play, VR’s slow climb—and talk about how curation can align arousal with values through consent-forward, performer-led studios.

The map offers surprises and laughs (yes, PlayStation traffic and Genshin searches are a thing), but the tone stays grounded: data is a mirror, not a verdict. We talk lube literacy, negotiation, and language that respects your limits. We celebrate trans and gender-fluid expression edging into the mainstream and imagine a future where categories feel less like fences and more like signposts. If you want a smart, funny, and sex-positive tour through the year’s trends—with practical takeaways for how to watch better—this one’s for you.

And I welcome you back to the podcast for the first episode of the year. And as you know, we like to keep a little bit of a tradition. I think it's only been like one or two years in a row, but now it's a tradition because we're doing it for the second or third time, or maybe fourth time uh the year in a row. And you know that first episode, we got to go through some rankings. So to start us off, we have, of course, our favorite, favorite topic to talk about. Porn. I don't know whose favorite it is, but I enjoy talking about it. And today we are going through the ranking for the US and the world. But before we get into that, you know what time it is. The very first thing we do in the new year of our Lord 2026, we gotta start off right with the AMSMR. 30 seconds, 10 seconds, 5 seconds today. Once again to my little cup, my blue cup. My blue cup.

SPEAKER_00 2:41

Okay, so that was about five seconds, but you get the idea. Once again, Julie's here, and I've got another episode of the uh little mini m monologuing sessions, I like to call it. Yeah, you just gotta get it off my chest. It's just a regular episode by myself, so not as long as when I have a guest, but I'm going to rant about some porn rankings for 2025 as we go into 2026. Let's see how it turns out for this year. But like last year, we'll go through all the uh different states and um just the overall rankings to start us off. As you can see, we have video now. And my screen likes to mess up, so I gotta keep raising my hands like the roof is on fire. But okay, so I don't know how well y'all can see this, but we went to Popstar, popstar.com, and we have most watch porn categories of 2025, ranked and rated. I didn't even see the rated part. Okay, we're rating them now. Uh, but uh let's see what we start off with here. Okay, so first of all, we have hentai porn and 3D animation, peak pisc pix pixelated pleasure. And I'll try to have these uh sites and uh citations, whatever it is, sources, uh in um on the description. Okay, we'll put that in there. I'll try to remember to do that before I just delete these from my memory after I do this. It's great. Neurospiciness. Oh, all these little side articles over here. Very interesting. Okay, so number one, hentai porn. Okay, so I would hope that all you camsters, and I hope you guys had a good holiday and happy new year and this year, and getting all your um resolutions in order. Uh which I could probably talk about at some point. Don't have a resolution, just do just do it. Just try it. Fuck up, fail, and then try again. Don't have a resolution and then mess up, and then that's it for your resolution. No. You got like a day before habit becomes unbroken, then you gotta start it all over again. All right. One day's fine if you take a break. Two days, you gotta start the habit over again, but it's totally fine. Don't just resolve to do it at the beginning of the year and then quit. Like most of the people after three weeks. No, keep going. I wanna see, I wanna see, I wanna see, and I want to hear, and I want to learn about you guys doing those habits still into June, July, whatever. Okay? Once again, it takes about 66 days for a habit to form. About. That's average, so it's not necessarily everybody, okay? All right, back to the porn. Very important topic, of course. Henti porn. I hope we know what this is, okay? Cartoon porn, animated porn, all right? Anime porn, a lot of tentacles and stuff. We know why they have the tentacles, because they couldn't put penises on there on their porn when they first started, and some of it's censored, although there is uncensored, which we'll get into here. Japanese porn now, so that's a that's a whole category on itself. And I'll just say, in general, all right, huge generalization, they still ain't shaving shit down there, all right? And some people like it. I guess. Uh, what I do like to see is what I've seen now is that my fenon porn is the Japanese women do some fem dominant as well. That is great. So that is a nice little thing. It doesn't have to be Japanese, just Asian in general. I mean, you know, I'm part Asian. So yeah, but whatever. Femme porn with Asian women. There you go. I said it. Good stuff. Still queer over here, so I like all the different um things going on, but I just want to congratulate the women out there in the Asian cultures, because it's just usually taboo. Asian women, usually the submissives, but it's good to see them dominating the other people at some point in time now. Porn is revolutionizing. Sure. Uh next we have MILF porn. Still a thing for some reason. Like the step parent and the step sibling, still a thing. I don't get it. Uh it's just very strange to me when uh somebody's like mommy and daddy. I I mean, I I have that as a title, mommy or daddy is totally fine. As far as like a kink dynamic, but when you get into the sexual part of it, it's just oh man, I don't, I just I don't know. It's very strange, especially like brother or sister. It's like what? But I will act along in the role play overtone. I just can't do the the calling out of the thing, so yeah, yep, it's still things step step step stuff, porn. Boy, alright. And of course, you know, Julius at an age above the legal age is just a number, as far as I'm concerned, kind of sorta, with caveats, of course. I'm just saying in general. Um, yeah, so I have no problem dating an old woman. I have no problem with that. Cougar, bobcat, all them different things. Oh, I'm all for it. As long as we got some uh connection there and some intelligence going on, emotional intelligence, regular intelligence, common sense intelligence, all those intelligences. And yeah, next we have lesbian porn. Okay, soft lighting, serious views. Um, sure, lesbian porn. I I guess I don't know. Why is it a top thing? Lesbian porn. Women people just all right. So we just know that cis gendered straight men are usually the ones partaking of this. Okay, if you don't know that, go read it. Are literally a million of different studies on there. They're the ones paying for this shit. So it's like, okay, lesbian porn, sure. Uh anal porn, which is interesting. I like that they said no longer taboo, just Tuesday. Agreed, right here on uh King Campfire. Uh, if you have a willing participant and somebody that in in enjoys that, then anal your way through it. Giving and receiving. I'm a fan of both. Everybody's got an asshole. You can stick something in there consensually, and hopefully with lubrication. Yeah, which people you gotta lubricate that stuff. Dry dry thumb only goes so far unless you're dealing with a masochist that likes to anal um domination. Yeah, totally.

unknown 8:43

Ah, tequila.

Lesbian, Anal, And Consent Basics

Body Types, Asian Categories, And Identity

Amateur, POV, And Fetish Mix

Ethical Studios And Curating Your Feed

Global Traffic Leaders And Time Spent

SPEAKER_00 8:45

Okay, sure. And then big ass, BBW and big tits. Size matters, apparently. So, yeah, big ass. Not not too much on the tits so much, but yeah, big old booty. I like me a big old juicy chew toy that chew on. We got ads. Okay. Uh, next, Japanese porn, Asian categories, of course. I talked about that. Uh, and then shout out to my people's the Pine porn is the Philippines, which is interesting. And there's another article, we'll get to that though, but there's another thing where it says, like, in the Philippines, more women are watching porn than men. I don't know how they got that character. That sure that ratio, but that's interesting to see. Very, very interesting. All right, some Horty Filipinas out there, and uh more power to you. Okay, and of course, right after that is Latina porn, not much different than the uh Filipino porn, both conquered, colonized by Spain. So, okay, a bunch of freaks, all of them, and then you got the Catholic things on there. I forgot about that part. Yeah, the religious uh guilt is great. Once again, Christian guilt is a thing, probably why I'm here. And then Ebony Porn and BBC. Lots of interesting stuff. Uh ooh, black-owned studios. Yeah, I've come across a couple of those in my tabs. Good stuff. Oh, one of them's called Dog Fart. It's like, why would you? But okay, Dog Fart Studios. Shout out to you. Lot of the BBC stuff going on, even though I still don't understand why it's like separate categories. People have their things. I don't really care what the color of the penis is. It's what it's attached to is the thing. Okay. And speaking of penises, transp porn, um, both ways, very much enjoyable. All right, gender fluidity is hot. You are correct. Gender fluid right here. So I very much appreciate this, and it's great. And hopefully that'll not be like a taboo separate category as well at some point. I guess whatever. Sure. And then, of course, real amateur, that's still a thing up here. Um, seems to have gone down over the years, the POV stuff, but it's like, oh yeah, I like I like a little uh girl next door, person next door, action. So just two people getting it on, like they um boyfriend and girlfriend, or girlfriend and girlfriend, boyfriend or boyfriend, like they in a relationship, and they just kind of like, ooh, turn the camera on. Me like you that that's uh that's always a good time. And um there's some there's there's always a line. I have like my different days. It's like high produced Tuesdays and amateurs Wednesdays. I don't know, my main my mind and my brain just got a big old toss-up. But I like the fact that as a couple, you're just like, um, you know it's hot, let's turn the camera on and put it on the internet. And like, okay, that's that's a thing that happens, that's really good. POV is always good too. Um I was watching where the the person being filmed was like telling a story while just flaciating, and I was like, oh, that's a thing. Yeah, sex stories while the sex is happening. I was like, I didn't even know I was into that, but I like it just matter-of factly. All right, I'm just gonna, you know, I just want something to suck on. It's like, oh, okay. And then we just put everything in there fetish, JOI, jerk off instruction, massage, asmr, more all niche, all in mixed in together. So we have jerk off instruction, fetish massage. What why is it a fetish massage? Why isn't it just a massage? I don't get it. Unless there's rope involved or something. Sure. Um massage ASMR. That's kind of cool. I wish I could make some of that. Uh teacher porn, of course. Threesome porn, sure. Squirt porn, okay, and then cosplay porn. Yeah, that's another one. I'm I'm surprised that cosplay doesn't have its own uh category as well, because that's a whole nother genre in there that's pretty fun. So everybody's, you know, yeah, I get my anime porn going. Yeah, you got some characters out there that you want to see together. I would mish mash the the animes too. Get a little Demon Slayer and My Hero Academy all mixed in together. It's completely different genres. But it's like, all right, we're gonna I got the cosplays that don't match, I'm gonna put them on. Yeah, get it on. Okay. Interesting, they just put all those together. The Saul King stuff and the score porn, like, okay. If it happens, if it happens, whether it's P or not. It still is. It's not a question. The science isn't out anymore. They have the answer. It's not always not P. What are we doing here? We still we have the answer. So stupid. Go look it up. All right, uh, and then ethical porn, which is great. Yay! Snapping fingers to that, because we like ethical porn and consent and fair fair pay. Okay, yeah, and non-exploitative practices with is great. Um, and then of course, you know, because it has to be queer run because the straight people don't know how to do it. So ridiculous. Uh, but yeah, ethical porn now. Um, this is something I learned actually a few months ago. That is a thing, that there's our ethical studios, and there's a those are the porn genres, and we can 100% um just categorize categorize um curate. There it is. That's the word. Curate our porn to watch the just the ethical ones only. Okay, so I'm running out of time. So hold on, let me switch to the other screen. And we're back. Okay, we got the official porn hub solutions here. The the solutions, the official porn hub list. And if y'all don't know, we are in a state where you have to check your age uh here, and we ain't trying to do all that. So I got the screen grabs from Pornhub thanks to Gigazine, which is great. So I ain't got to do all that bull crap. Okay, so we have the porn porn hub thing, and we can't even go to Pornhub to check it out. But the top 20 countries in Pornhub's track as follows. Sadly, Japan dropped two places, which is hilarious. And of course, good old United States, well far in the lead. Or Americans love us some porn still. Just look at that bar, it's just so big. Big bar. Um, and then very far second, Mexico, and very close third to Mexico is the Philippines. Once again, the Latin influence is strong, and yet Spain isn't on here, which is interesting. Oh, there it is. I spoke too soon, way down in the middle there. But yeah, Mexico and the Philippines. Like, what are we doing here in the third world country? So you have the United States, first world, and then I think Mexico is a second world country, and then the Philippines is definitely a third world country, and then Brazil, checking out your own porn there, Brazil. What the hell? And Germany, which is interesting. And now all these have moved up, and then France moved down. France reflects partial data prior to pornhouse suspending access to protect. Oh, okay. France got banned in the pornhouse got banned in France, too. Okay, um, United Kingdom down, and all the way bottom. We have Egypt, Peru, Chile. Not a whole lot of African countries, not very many Asian countries, except for on the East Coast, East, the Pacific, Asia Pacific. Interesting. But of course, why not? United States so far in the lead every single time. The top 20 uh countries account for 77%. Just out of the 20 countries. Oh, watching all the porn. Okay, I would love to know why in the US porn is so high. I think we just the taboo part of it. Aha, you stupid Christian. It's backfiring on you, you idiots. Okay. Anyways, uh, this is funny because time spin per visit. Japan is in the lead, followed by the Philippines, which is consistent to the Philippines being the third, and then the second most watching it. But United States, it's not only like a minute, not even a full minute less. Um, so we get we busted those nuts really quick, or busted like 10 of them really quick, if you can do that, if you're capable of that, and then getting off the app, getting off the site for some reason, which is very funny. Uh, it could be also well, there was still the the number of visits is still high, the traffic's still high, but the time is less. So I was gonna say, oh, maybe people are looking run. Maybe people have workarounds, and that might be a thing, but I guess not. Um this one is not as steep as a bar compared to the US and visitations, um, different per age. So the younger people are doing it less, and the older people are doing it more, especially the 65-year-olds. How do you even know how to figure out what a website is? Shocking. Uh, okay, so that's pretty funny. Um, hilarious, hilarious. Uh but yeah, United States, Chile, Mexico, nothing really standing out too much. You know, it's eight minutes to 11 minutes, not a huge jump, not even a full three minutes ahead of time. But Mexico dropped 105 seconds. Um compared to being second. Yeah, those people they're knocking it out too. They went up in ranking and visits and went down in time. Okay, they're really just knocking it, busting them nuts real quick and going back to work or some shit. That's interesting. Okay, favorite times to watch porn, of course, no shocker, close to midnight. That's when I like to view my porn as well. Hey oh, we all stroking it together on the different hours, time zones or a thing. Anyways, let's see. Um, day of the week, Saturday, Wednesday's the lowest, and Sunday's the highest. Uh the Lord's Day. Great. I don't know, Thursday. Thursday, least popular day, even though it says Wednesday on here. But okay, Thursday morning, because technically midnight is the next day. When the world came together. Hey, you spelled I don't think that's how you spell came in that way. 11 p.m. on January 5th. Pornhub's highest point of traffic in 2025. Before January 6th? What? I'm so confused. Everybody jumped on and busted nuts. That's funny that they put that on. The world came together. 11 p.m. on January 5th. That's fucking hilarious. Okay. Um, yeah, no, that one's not that one's not too shocking. Okay, uh, visitor demographics, of course, by age. Let's see here. The most is 18 and 24. Hold on. They went up by 2%, but then their average time went down. So they really getting it in. All right, so the new adults, let's put it that way. The new adults have more efficiency. They got to get back to the TikToks and the video game streams and all these different things, which is very funny. Um, and I love the fact they put the 55 to 60 because they die in. That's why they decrease. Because they die in, that's why everybody else stayed the same. Uh no, the 1824 went up, and then there was a decrease to 25 to 34 year olds. Okay, so the the generation is just moving up because apparently so I've read or heard some study that people are having less sex, so apparently they're watching more porn, but not the 20 to 34 year olds. Are they going out and talking to people? Um, the average age is 38 years. That's that sounds about right. And only I'm only three years past that. I'm getting old, whatever. So that's great. Um, and then for some reason they focus on Japan. The 18 and 30, 18 to 24 year olds uh in Japan, and the countries with the most uses age 18 to 24 were Egypt, Philippines, and the UK. Philippines still standing strong in there. It's great. Still watching their porn. I went to the Philippines. Most people don't even have computers. Where are they? Oh, they got phones, though. I guess they're all watching it, jacking it in the phones. And I don't know about most people or the average, but whatever, but my family doesn't have AC in the bathroom. So I don't know where they're doing it. I guess in their rooms. Kind of crazy with a wall unit. Here we go. This is what I was talking about earlier. Philippines 64% of the women. Not even close. Close to half are watching porn. Fascinating. I need to do more research. 30% of female visitors worldwide compared to that's almost double the average. Okay, and then for some reason, Colombia is very over average too. And Argentina. And then it starts to make more sense with Mexico. We get more into the 50-50. Where is the US? We're way down here. No shocker there. 28% of the women. Oh, plus one. Okay. We're getting we're gaining still half of the Philippines. I can't even explain that. That's craziness. Okay, I want to know more details. All right. What do we got here? Uh last. Ooh, ooh, ooh. Oh, yeah. The types again. Categories. Lesbian. No shocker there. Transgender went up. MILF, no shocker. Anal. Sure. Went down. Mature. Japanese. Threesome. Hentai. Hentai is low on this list, but it was like down in the middle. Popular with women. Variantified amateurs. Cartoon Big Dick. Indian big ass. BBW blowjobs. Solo female. Wow. If you are solo female, get your money on. You can do it all by yourself. Virtual reality creeping up on there. And then Korean. Okay, different. Cream pie. I mean, why is that a different category? That should just be happening. In my humble opinion, that should just be in every porn. Why is it in his own category? Okay. Um, lesbian went up. What is it about the lesbian porn that everybody likes? Transgender porn. I'm glad that's starting to go up too. And then MILF just down. An old down. Okay. Lesbian porn went up. I'm confused by this. Okay. Uh, there we have another breakdown. Like I said, I don't know if you guys can see, but I will try to put the links in the thing. And then we have it broken down by country. Um, traffic by phone. Nobody cares about that. Uh traffic by game console. PlayStation up high. That's fucking hilarious. Uh, the most searched game on Pornhub, Genshin Impact. Oh my god. That's hilarious. And then characters, of course. Tifa with her big old titties, Laura Croft with her big old titties, Chun Lee with her big old titties, Diva with her big old guys on here. Ruby, Kirico Mercy, Jill Valentine, Slime. For my non-geek people, these are all women. Just so you know. Every single one of them. Wow, there's not even a guy on there. Okay, then we have ads. Alright, let's break it down, my country, before I run out of completely out of time. Once again, South Asia, except for the islands. Just gray nothing. Hmm, that's interesting. And then all of Russia's transgendered. Fascinating. China just blamed. Oh, okay. We banned all of it in China, India. Okay. And then MILF in the Middle East. Um, and then the East the Eastern Europe. Middle MILF as well. How do you get Africa? Africa wasn't even on the list. It was just all grayed out. Ebony, of course, they stick to their own women. Arabs sticking to their own women. What is this? Italian. Okay, of course. And then Italian. Um, lesbian in Australia and America. What in the hell? And then MILF in Canada. What is going on, MILF? All up in the cold countries. They love their transgender. More power to you. I love it too. In Brazil, they love Brazilian. Okay, the Brazilians and the Africans sticking to your own kind. And then for some reason, Western South America. The whole tire side loves them some anal. Just getting it in the butt. I would I would assume that one I know is religious stuff. It can't abuse the vagina with the penis. You gotta get it in the ass. Maybe there's some gay asses that are getting penetrated. That'd be interesting to see. Would like to see that. I'll tell you what, if you've never watched some truly bisexual porn, that's some good stuff. Yep, that's some fun stuff to watch there. Okay, uh, let's see here. Yeah, that was interesting. Had to go a little bit fast because I ran out of time, but y'all get the hints. Um and if you can get to the porn hub thing as well, and I'll put this one in there. I don't know how many ads or anything. Get an ad blocker, I'll tell you what, right now, that'll be helpful. Okay, this is Julius Marquise, H H Julius, or just Julius, if you're not as fancy.
