The Long Tail of Porn.
I was doing some research on a porn talent agency’s website the other day when I discovered a really cool interface that allows users to filter the actresses based on what sex acts they’re willing to do on film.
There were 901 actresses in the system. Toggling on/off the buttons for various sex acts showed what these ladies are willing to do. I kept a log of how many actresses would do each sex act then ranked the popularity of each act to create the chart displayed above.
A few things I learned:
1. “Solo” is obviously number one. You have to be willing to take off your clothes to be in porn.
2. “Girl / Girl” outranks “Girl / Boy” See, it’s hard being a guy.
3. While G/G beat G/B, B/B/G beat G/G/B. Who knew?
4. Second least popular sex act: Acting!
5. No girl does everything.
That’s all the analysis I’m going to provide on the off chance that I decide to run for senate some day.

I’m wondering about the 26 actresses who won’t do ‘solo’
…spotlight bother them?
…worried about going blind?
…performance pressure too high?
“I was doing some research on a porn talent agency’s website the other day…”
The mystery of What Does Ed Do grows ever more mysterious.
Taylor hit the nail on the head with this one.
Com’n Taylor and Robo…I’m calling b.s. on your comments, because no one who knows the Deets would feel these research topic would be ‘mysterious’ for him.
Growth in envy is believable, but the false surprise over his range of ‘work’ sets off the b.s. meter.
I suppose I should have stayed on topic and accused you both of ‘faking it’.
Saw through the acting huh? I guess there’s good reason that ranks second from the bottom.

[...] Carly suggested to me once that I include links to some of the top posts that have appears on The Deets. I thought that was a pretty good idea, but then I looked at my stats and realized that top posts, at least when measured by page views, don’t necessarily provide a good illustration of what people will find on The Deets on a typical day. For example, the above graph shows a big spike in traffic for June 2008. Why? Porn. [...]
