Some little-known facts about the adult industry.

1. A Harvard study found that Utah had the most online porn subscriptions out of all US states.
2. While nude images of humans have existed for as long as civilization, it was not until the Victorian era that pornography in the sense that we know it existed.
3. In 2007, the Australian government made possession of some X-rated material illegal for certain aboriginal communities.
4. The average male pornstar makes anywhere between $50 – $1500. They are paid per scene (not per hour) and generally are not paid royalties. On the other hand, women can make up to quarter of a million dollars a year and some female pornstars have become so wealthy that they have retired young and rich.
5. The body part that most men focus on when watching porn is the woman's face.
6. Researchers from Northwestern University found out that many women get turned on by monkey sex videos.
7. In some countries where it is illegal to broadcast or have pornography, hotels are exempt in order to accommodate the “needs” of their foreign clients.
8. 20% of men admit to viewing porn at work during the working week, while 13% of women admit the same.
9. People called “fluffers” are employed by some film studios to “arouse” the male participants prior to filming scenes. They also keep the actors “cleaned up” between scenes.
10. Presidential elections put people in the mood to watch more porn. Much much more than usual.
