Half of all UK adults watch porn

Apparently, a report from Ofcom found that half of all UK adults watch porn.

Does anyone else find that surprisingly low?

If it was half of all men, I’d think it was low. I could be wrong but I guess there’s a lower percentage of women that watch it?

How did Ofcom arrive at this figure? If it was by survey people lie, especially about things like that

"If it was half of all men, I’d think it was low. I could be wrong but I guess there’s a lower percentage of women that watch it? "

If I remember rightly, it was 50% of men and 16% of women. (The maths started to give me a headache at that point.)

Probably a little more than they numbers

The only numbers that can pull are none vpn numbers

So would say it’s probably about 70% mark

I wouldn't have a clue if our friends watched porn or not. Both of us do, on occasion and I'm sure our son does, so that's 100% of people in this household.

Your internet provider probably shared the data with them

They can see everything or in less your running a vpn

I know I ask too many questions but when I see a statistic like this I just wonder what it's based on.

What do they mean by porn?

How did they arrive at a figure of 50%, if porn is being accessed on one device how do they know it's always the same person watching? If they used a survey (you'd be amazed at some of the surveys Saga put out) did they factor in people lying? Did they count people who only watched it once or twice?

It's almost as if I care

On a mooch

A bit of context, it’s a survey taken during the pandemic on streaming services

Half the adult population of the UK watched online pornography during the pandemic, according to a projection by Ofcom.

The media regulator found that 26 million individuals viewed adult material in September 2020.

By far the most popular site was P***H**, which was visited by 15 million people – 50% of men, and 16% of women, with internet access – giving the site a far larger audience than mainstream television channels such as Sky One, ITV4 and BBC News.

Thank you.

That's interesting.

A larger audience than BBC News? That is quite the claim to fame!

To be fair I turned the news off in summer 2020, if I needed to know something I did a quick scan of the headlines, as did so many people I know. So I could actually believe that stat during that time period.
