The majority of Irish people have watched pornography at some point or another, but have you ever wondered how our tastes compare with other countries? Or which county searched for "dogging" the most?
Adult entertainment site Pornhub has released its findings on Ireland's top search terms. While search terms like "milf" and "lesbian" have been popular worldwide, the most common search term used by the Irish is, in fact, "Irish."
To understand how its Irish viewers differ from other nationalities, the website also looked at top relative categories-i.e. the videos that are viewed proportionately more times in Ireland when compared to other countries.
Pornhub found that the search term "British" is 265% more popular in Ireland. "Mature" porn is also viewed 72% more often and "Blonde" is viewed 54% ore often by Irish visitors.
In the gay pornography section, the "Daddy" category is 90% more popular with Irish viewers compared with other nationalities.
Pornhub statisticians dug deeper then, filtering top relative categories by Irish county. Below are the terms more likely to be searched in each county when compared with others:
South East Counties
Waterford-Pegging
Wexford-Cartoon
Kilkenny-Handjob
South Tipperary-Strapon
North Tipperary-Chubby
Carlow-Wedding
Laois-Anime
Wicklow-Japanese
Dublin-Dublin
Kildare-Cosplay
Cork-BBW
Limerick-Big tits
Kerry-Ebony
Offaly-Transgender
Galway-Redhead

Westmeath-Squirt
Longford-Big Ass
Cavan-Anime
Monaghan-Blowjob
Louth-ASMR
Leitrim-POV
Roscommon-Granny
Sligo-British
Mayo-Mature
Donegal-Femdom
Again, this is not the most popular search term in that county, but the terms that are more likely to be searched when compared with other counties.
Ireland ranks 42nd for traffic on Pornhub, which is much higher than its population rank (124th). The average Irish Pornhub user spends 9 minutes and 33 seconds on the site.
