The number of Americans who watch pornography on the Internet has nearly doubled since 2007, according to a new survey released Thursday by the Pew Research Center.
In 2013, 12 percent of American adults reported to watching porn on the Internet, twice as many as reported doing so in 2006. 25 percent of men copped to watching porn, while only 8 percent of women admitted to it.
Those are pretty low numbers considering the ubiquity of the genre. Pew does note that its own numbers probably underestimate the real total of online porn-watching Americans due to a possible “reluctance to report the behavior among some adults.”
What behavior? We’ve never evenĀ heard of porn…
