Two-Thirds of Young Australians Watch Porn, Infographic Reveals

Two-Thirds of Young Australians Watch Porn, Infographic Reveals

LOS ANGELES — While it may not come as much of a surprise given the legendary robustness of its people, a new infographic has revealed that most young Australians are watching porn.

The annual triple j survey examines attitudes toward climate change, debt, drugs, mental health, studying, welfare, work, politics, racism — and yes, porn, with over 15,000 folks aged 18-29 taking part in the most current poll, providing substantial insights into the country’s content viewing habits.

Among the findings reported on the infographic, 58 percent of female respondents watch porn, with a whopping 93 percent of their male counterparts joining in on the fun.

While there is some crossover in preferred genres between straight and gay men and women and among those who identify as bi- or pansexual, only the men worried they are watching too much porn.

There was one thing that nearly everyone agreed on: Porn should be free — with unfortunately only 2 percent reporting a willingness to pay for it.

The infographic is available here.
