Have you ever wondered why men are supposed to watch more porn than women? Let’s go over the science of why men are so susceptible to sexually explicit content, especially when it comes to online porn and live sex sites.
It’s no secret that men have a weak spot for pornography. Although some people may be against sexually explicit photos and videos, there’s no denying that men just can’t get enough of porn, and it’s not entirely their fault. It’s quite literally in their wiring.
Men watch a lot of porn
Studying the word’s porn habits is no easy task, especially when you take into consideration that people aren’t always honest, due to deep-seated guilt or embarrassment.
But that hasn’t stopped scientists from trying. A researcher from the University of Montreal, Simon Louis Lajeunesse, published a study of the top 100 porn sites, in order to get a better idea of men’s porn-watching habits. Lajeunesse found that the world’s top porn sites, get a whopping average of 14.5 billion views.
And according to data from Relationships in America, around 43% of men self reportedly watch pornography weekly, putting the record straight that men do in fact watch more porn than women
Going back to Lajeunesse’s study, on average, 99.8 percent of men watch on average, watch around 5 minutes or less watching porn, meaning they are watching as a kind of tool, not in an obsessive way.
Why do men love porn?
If you surf Reddit for even a few moments, you can find countless conversations from real-life men, describing in detail why it is that they love pornography and live sex cams . And it all comes down to escape. Porn offers men the ability to escape their day-to-day stress and just enjoy the sexual stimulation and entertainment of an attractive naked body.
But there is also some science as to why men are more attracted to pornography and sexual stimulation.
They are more sensitive to stimuli
Men are proven to be more sensitive to sexual and visual stimuli. In studies where men and men where both showed series of sexually suggestive or explicit images and videos, brain scans later showed that the men’s brains lit up like fireworks while women’s brains only lit up partially. This implies that men, in fact, are much more easily around by sexual visual stimuli.
They have a higher sex drive
It’s true that on average, men do have much higher sex drives than women. Meaning that they are thinking about sex and craving sex much more often. Men that are in relationships and men that aren’t in relationships, might even watch porn in equal amounts, because, as some men have professed, masturbation is can be a great way to relax and destress.
Masturbating almost daily is common among men and these days, it’s almost always accompanied by watching pornography.
Men don’t always mix sex with intimacy
Oftentimes, men don’t require a connection or any feelings of intimacy in order to reach climax, as women do for example. This isn’t to say that men can’t be romantic or intimate, simply that they can easily become stimulated, without the presence of an emotional connection.
This is often the go-to excuse for men that are in relationships when their partners ask them why they watch porn. Because porn to some men, is simply a form of entertainment and a source of sexual stimulation, with no intimate feelings or connection towards the porn actresses or actors.
How live sex cam sites cater to both men and women
So it’s true that men and women are usually very different creatures when it comes to sexuality. But one area that they both enjoy is the increasingly popular live sex cam sites that have been taking over the adult entertainment industry.
Live cam sites are great for all sexes because cam models themselves come on all sexes, body types, and legal ages. The fact that live sex cam sites are streamed live, makes customization easy, allowing people to get exactly the kind of content they like.
If someone isn’t in the mood for intimacy, they can tell the cam model they are watching that they would rather not talk, and just enjoy the show. Or if context and romance are a must, you can explain that to your model and they will make your experience worth your while. Of course, tips should be given if you are expecting something specific. But that’s to be expected.
