xHamster Releases Full Report on Porn Viewing in 2016

LOS ANGELES — xHamster has released the second and third parts of its in-depth survey on porn viewing habits in 2016. The first part was released last week.

xHamster said that viewers “watched over 1.8 billion hours of video” on the tube site in 2016. 

According to xHamster’s data, “mature women” surpassed “MILFs” as its most popular category. xHamster also found that Mia Khalifa was 2016’s most searched female star — surpassing Kim Kardashian — and that 2016’s most searched term in the United States was “mom.” 

xHamster said that its’ lowest traffic in 2016 “coincided with major events in the Republican primary.”
