Just in time for Pride Month, the data wizards at Pornhub have dropped their much-anticipated 2024 Gay Pride Insights, and it’s serving up a fascinating look at what’s getting hearts racing around the globe. This isn’t just a dry spreadsheet of numbers; it’s a vibrant snapshot of desire, revealing the top stars, the most-loved categories, and some genuinely surprising viewer habits.
And the Winner Is… Malik Delgaty!
Get ready to bow down, because Malik Delgaty has officially been crowned the “world’s most viewed performer” in the gay category. The Canadian powerhouse has captivated audiences worldwide, skyrocketing to the number one spot. Fans have flooded social media to celebrate the win, and Delgaty himself has been actively sharing the news on his X (formerly Twitter) account, showing his appreciation for the massive fan support that got him there.
This win solidifies Delgaty’s place as a dominant force in the industry, proving that his unique blend of charm and raw energy has created a global fanbase that just can’t get enough.
A Map of Desire: What the World is Watching
Ever wonder if your viewing habits match your neighbors? Pornhub’s data gives us a peek behind the curtain. In the United States, the “Black” category reigned supreme, showcasing a strong demand for Black performers. Meanwhile, up north, Canadians were overwhelmingly searching for “Big Dick,” making their preferences loud and clear.
But the most unexpected tidbit comes from the heartland. According to the report, North Dakota logged the most hours of gay porn watched over the past year. Who knew the Peace Garden State had such a voracious appetite?
“This data isn’t just about clicks; it’s a cultural barometer,” one industry blogger noted. “It shows how regional tastes differ but also how universal the appeal for quality queer content is.”
Not Just For the Boys: A Surprisingly Diverse Audience
Perhaps one of the most compelling insights from the report is the breakdown of who is actually watching. While many might assume the audience for gay porn is exclusively male, the numbers tell a different story. The viewership is split with 53 percent identifying as male and a whopping 47 percent as female.
This near-even split shatters outdated stereotypes and highlights the massive crossover appeal of gay content. It’s a powerful testament to a growing female audience that appreciates male beauty and queer romance, pushing the industry to cater to a more diverse set of viewers than ever before.
Why These Numbers Matter
In an era where creators are building their own empires on platforms like OnlyFans and JustFor.Fans, big data from a titan like Pornhub remains incredibly valuable. These insights offer a roadmap for performers and studios, helping them understand what audiences are craving. It shows that the appetite for gay and queer content is not a niche market but a global, diverse, and passionate community.
As the report from Pornhub’s Insights page concludes, the trends point toward an ever-expanding and inclusive future for adult entertainment.
“Every year, the data shows us something new about ourselves,” a Pornhub statement might as well have said. “It proves that the world of gay porn is more dynamic, diverse, and celebrated than ever before.”
