What do women get out of watching men head directly downtown to poundtown?

But what is a little surprising is that that women are watching gay porn, too.

Cate: I find the situational context more believable.

Sometimes, it's refreshing to not keep seeing the same gangbang of a loudly moaning gal.

Cate: Men have a hunger and intensity to their play that I find fascinating. It highlights not just search trends and favourite performers, but also the demographics of those engaging with gay content.

While surprising to some, this figure isn’t new.

Usually, I'm very into watching really well made queer porn for women. For women who are attracted to men, including straight women, gay porn offers an alternative free from the objectification of female bodies.

Significantly, Neville noted that gay male porn can also be a safer viewing option for female survivors of sexual violence. I suppose watching it also satisfies voyeuristic tendencies as well.

In 2015, they confirmed that gay content was consistently the second most popular porn category for women on the platform.

These patterns have also been backed by academic research. “It’s one of the few types of sexually explicit media they can enjoy without feeling triggered or re-traumatised,” she wrote, adding that it removes concerns about female performers’ well-being—whether they’re being exploited or truly consenting.

Pornhub’s data also showed that those aged 18 to 24 made up the largest group watching gay porn (27 per cent), while only 11 per cent of viewers were 65 or older.

These insights not only highlight the broad and diverse audience for gay male porn but also raise important questions about representation, safety, and inclusivity in adult media consumption.

So, 100% as I watch it every time, or about 50%, as that is the approximate breakdown of the type of videos I watch.

Sonia: A good 50-60%.

Beatrice: While straight porn has gotten a little bit better in recent years, I'm not really into huge, hairy, muscly guys. Pornhub first noted back in 2014 that a significant number of women were enjoying gay male porn. Straight porn is very much focused on the women, and a bonus of gay porn is that they show men being attractive, as opposed to them just being a means to an end.

Cory: I think gay men (or at least gay male porn stars) have a really powerful way of communicating with their bodies on camera.

This is why I now prefer bi male porn with one woman and two or more men. Gay porn tends to get down to business, and I like that.

How does gay male porn differ from straight porn, outside of being two (or more) dudes?

Melissa: For me, the real difference is actually a bit of a social rebellion: I'm so used to seeing women degraded [in porn] and whenever I get with a new partner, their first thing they want to see is if I like being degraded.

While I know those guys are still popular in gay porn, I'm much more likely to find men I'm more interested in generally [who fall] on the more androgynous side of things. That makes a difference for me.

Cory: I feel like a lot of mainstream straight porn can feel really stale sometimes. This is a window into a world that I can only view from the sidelines, and that’s hot.

Also, because I’m a cisgender woman, I can sometimes tell in porn if the women featured are faking or overdoing it because I have personally been in that position before.

But why? That's why it comes as no surprise that lesbian porn has consistently dominated PornHub searches for well over a decade. Since we could only speculate, we asked a dozen women to share why they watch—and in many cases prefer viewing—two dudes go to town on one another.

The masculine sexual energy that’s portrayed in gay porn can be very primal and animalistic, and I don’t see that as much in straight porn.
