Pornography might not be the first thing you think of when it comes to Valentine's Day, but it certainly seems high on some people's list.
Porn-streaming site Pornhub has released the keywords which skyrocket worldwide on the international day of love, and they speak volumes.
- Newshub's top 10 alternative Valentine's Day date ideas
- Pornhub releases the most-viewed genres for each country in 2017
- Pornhub ranks New Zealand fifth in porn consumption
"Valentine," shoots up 3481 percent, followed by "cupid" which rises 652 percent. Love is third on the list at 44 percent, so maybe romance isn't dead after all.
Other, less Valentine's-themed keywords like "cuckold", "rough sex" and "babysitter" also increased on the day of love.
Pornhub also revealed that on Valentine's Day, the Premium section of the site saw a 308 percent increase in traffic. The countries with the biggest boosts? That'd be Chile with a 7,288 percent increase, followed by Mexico, Peru, Columbia, and Ecuador.
The reason for the skyrocket in traffic is clear - Pornhub has given the greatest Valentine's gift of all and offered free Premium to all its users for the past couple of years.
"No credit card, no strings" the website promises.
"Just free premium."
