Yes, Says the Latest Pornhub Report!
You may not think that what kind of phone you own is a clue to what you like in bed – but it is! A recent study by Pornhub has revealed that iOS users are more likely to watch bondage themed videos than those using the Android operating system. Why exactly is unclear, but what the study does show is that more and more of us are watching porn on the go – a sure sign that it’s more popular than ever – although I suspect that teenagers owning mobile phones and tablets is a major reason for this!
The Study
Pornhub’s study shone a light on the sexual differences between phone users. The standout piece of information was that iOS users watched more videos in the bondage and fetish categories than Android users. When broken down into percentages, the difference is pretty dramatic. Bondage videos were watched 105% more, and fetish films 66% more by those using iOS devices. Pornhub still isn’t sure why – but location is an interesting factor. iOS has more users in the USA, Canada and you’ve guessed it, the UK! So why are the Brits so into bondage?
What’s the Appeal?
People have very different reasons for participating in bondage. Some want to play around with the power dynamic in the bedroom. When restraints are involved, even the strongest of partners can be rendered physically helpless. It’s not just about physical strength though – it can be mental too.
If someone has a lot of responsibility at home or at work, being submissive in the bedroom can be really liberating. Bondage can also tie in well with role play and fantasy fulfilment. Most of all though, it’s about being able to trust your partner completely in a situation that is very intense. When bondage is done well, it can make a couple’s bond in the bedroom even stronger.
Of course, the effect of the phenomenally successful Fifty Shades of Grey can’t be ignored. After all, plenty of us had a mini sexual awakening reading it. After finishing the book, readers were keen to try out some of Christian Grey’s favourite kinky activities themselves.
Taking it to the Next Level
It goes without saying that those with an interest in bondage are more likely to participate in it actively. Bondage is so wide-ranging, and encompasses lots of different things. Some people like to dress head to toe in PVC, while others just like to keep it simple with whips and gags.
There’s no right or wrong way to ‘do’ bondage – it’s all very much down to an individual’s tastes. There are plenty of sex toys out there, catering to beginners, experts and everyone else in between. For those just dipping their toes into the water, soft restraints, handcuffs and blindfolds are great to start off with. For the more experienced customer though – well, the only limit is their own imaginations!
I could not help doing some research, and there are a huge selection of bondage toys out there, ranging from electro stimulation toys to male chastity equipment – certainly not my cup of tea, but each to their own! It seems that what can be found in an Ann Summers shop is pretty lame by comparison!
So, What About You?
Are you one of the cheeky people using their iOS device to watch bondage porn? Well if you are, you can rest assured that you are one of many. So whether you’re just discovering that bondage is right for you or you’ve been an enthusiast for years, there’s never been a better time to give in to some of your kinkiest desires than right now.
