The last few years have taught us to expect the unexpected when it comes to politics in the United States. We’re pretty open minded here at Pornhub, but none of us were expecting that Bigfoot pornography would be at the center of a contentious race for a U.S. House of Representatives seat in Virginia.
When a Democratic candidate accused her Republican opponent of being “a devotee of Bigfoot erotica”, it caused tens of thousands of curious people to visit Pornhub to see if such a thing actually exists. Searches containing “bigfoot” shot up over 8000% on July 30th. Perhaps more unexpected, was that hundreds of “devotees” were searching for bigfoot porn every day, even before it was thrust into the political spotlight.
As for Virginia, residents there are 38% more likely to search for “bigfoot” compared to the U.S. average.
