**Pornhub Unveils Leading Valentine’s Day Searches Across the U.S.**

Valentine’s Day has arrived, and what better way to celebrate than by examining **Pornhub’s** current search patterns? (No need for a response.)

The well-known adult website provided a map to *Mashable* showcasing the most commonly searched phrases in each U.S. state during the week preceding the love-filled holiday. Each phrase indicates a search that was particularly popular in that state compared to others.

In New York, users were on the lookout for more “emotional” material, while Wyoming kept it innocent with queries about “hugging.” Conversely, Oregon gravitated towards **BDSM**, and Georgia expressed a curiosity for **strap-on** material.

### **Pornhub Limitations Affect Search Patterns**

You’ll observe that several states appear grayed out on the map. This is due to the fact that **Pornhub has restricted access in 17 U.S. states** (at this point) as a result of **age-verification regulations**. Such regulations frequently mandate users to provide identification before they can view adult material.

The **Supreme Court has recently examined a case** concerning these verification regulations, but a conclusive ruling is still several months away.

For the time being, if Pornhub is not accessible in your state, you may be unable to see the local trending topics. Nevertheless, you can always **utilize a VPN** to circumvent the limitations and reach the site.
