The only thing hotter than your search history this year? The search trends themselves. Welcome to Popstar Wrapped 2025, where we peel back the sheets and take a deep dive into the porn categories that turned you (and everyone else) on in every sense of the word.
From nostalgic throwbacks to weirdly specific fetishes that made us go “wait… that’s a thing?”, 2025 was a wild ride. We analyzed the steamy stuff people clicked, craved, and confessed to in both public playlists and private tabs. And don’t worry. This round-up has something for everyone: gay, straight, bi, curious, monogamish, ethically non-monogamous, and delightfully undefined.
So dim the lights, grab your favorite lube, and let’s unwrap what really got the world going in 2025.
The Most-Watched Porn Categories of 2025
Spoiler alert: porn categories are more revealing than your last situationship. While the classics held strong, some newcomers came hard onto the scene.
1. Hentai Still Has a Chokehold
Apparently, cartoon boobs have staying power. Hentai continued to climb the charts in 2025 with variations like tentacle, yaoi, and futanari gaining traction. Gen X nostalgia for anime collided with Gen Z’s shameless horniness and boom: Pikachu wasn’t the only one evolving.
2. MILF and DILF Are Not Going Anywhere
This year confirmed what many already knew deep in their... soul. Mature content is still supreme. MILF porn held its crown, and DILFs finally got their due. Whether it's stepmom fantasy or bearded handyman energy, we’re here for the power of the experienced partner who knows exactly where everything goes.
3. POV Porn: You’re the Main Character, Baby
Let’s be real, we all want to feel special. POV porn gave viewers that front-row, center-stage, eye-contact-heavy experience. With the rise of VR headsets and AI-generated content, even your wildest “it’s me, hi” fantasy was only a click away.
4. Ebony and Latina Porn Climbed Higher
Inclusive representation isn't just good social practice, it’s also hot. Audiences actively searched out porn categories like Ebony and Latina in 2025, with viewership increasing across all gender identities and orientations. It’s about time the algorithm caught up to real-world attraction.
5. Amateur and Real Couple Content Ruled
People were craving authenticity this year. Whether it was OnlyFans creators or lovingly filmed scenes by real-life partners, amateur porn had viewers skipping the overly produced stuff in favor of something a little messier, a lot realer, and occasionally filmed on an iPhone 12 with a cracked screen.
Kinks That Blew Up (and Some That Came Out of Left Field)
1. JOI and Tease Content Skyrocketed
Jerk Off Instruction videos went viral on more than one platform this year. There’s something delicious about being told exactly what to do, especially in a world where decision fatigue is real. People wanted control—but also to give it up. Go figure.
2. Feet Found Their Footing
Foot fetish content had a literal leg up in 2025. From high-arched soles to painted toes squishing through birthday cake, feet were front and center. OnlyFans creators capitalized, and so did a whole new generation of foot-focused fans. No judgment. Just good traction.
3. Gooning and Edging Made It Mainstream
Once niche, now nearly normcore. Gooning (aka porn trance) and edging (delaying orgasm for maximum explosion) saw a major surge in popularity. People aren’t just watching porn—they’re optimizing it like it’s part of a wellness routine. Meditation app, who?
4. Consent Play and Aftercare Are Trending
Surprise: people really care about being cared for. Consent-focused content, verbal check-ins, and post-scene aftercare (yes, even in kink) gained visibility in both mainstream porn and ethical creator spaces. Sexy and emotionally intelligent? The 90s kid in therapy says thank you.
Not-So-Niche Porn Categories That Got a Second Wind
1. Trans and Nonbinary Performers Got More Love
Visibility and demand both increased for trans and nonbinary content. More inclusive creators took the spotlight, and audiences showed up for it. Representation matters—especially when it’s sexy, confident, and flipping the script on gendered porn tropes.
2. Furry and Cosplay Content Went Full Send
Furries were once a punchline. Now? They’re an economic force. Cosplay porn also skyrocketed, with everything from anime to horror movie icons getting the “horny fan fiction brought to life” treatment. Freddy Krueger in a thong? Someone clicked it. Probably twice.
3. ASMR Meets Adult: The Whisper Fetish Rises
Sex and sound collided this year in a flurry of feather-light moans, breathy instructions, and lip-smacking wetness. Porn with ASMR-style audio turned on a whole new crowd of tingle-chasers. Turns out, people really do want to be told a bedtime story—with benefits.
The Rise of Ethical Porn and Indie Creators
In 2025, people finally started asking “Wait, who made this... and did they want to?” Indie creators, ethical platforms, and verified amateur content started to take over. Sites with real consent, diverse bodies, and creators who actually profit from their work are here to stay.
This shift also encouraged more users to support creators directly via subscription platforms or curated ethical sites. You wanted authenticity. You got it—and the creators got paid.
Popstar Products That Made the Playlist
While you're exploring your kinks and updating your bookmarks, don’t forget to stock up on tools that help you enjoy every minute of it. Whether you’re solo, partnered, or somewhere in between, our fan favorites held strong all year:
Popstar Volume + Taste Supplement: If your personal ‘Wrapped’ includes cum appreciation content, this is a must. Customers say it improves flavor, texture, and volume. Big finish energy.
Popstar Delay Spray: For all you edgers, gooners, and late-night content connoisseurs, this one’s a performance extender you’ll actually look forward to using.
Popstar Personal Lubricants: If you're venturing into new territory, lube is the MVP. Silicone, water-based, flavored—we’ve got options for every mood and moment.
Conclusion: What This Year’s Porn Tells Us About Ourselves
Popstar Wrapped isn’t just a highlight reel of horniness—it’s a mirror. The way we search, click, and fantasize says a lot about who we are, what we want, and where we’re going (besides the sock drawer).
2025 showed us that people are craving connection, curiosity, representation, and pleasure that’s both informed and inclusive. Whether your top porn categories were classic, kinky, or downright chaotic, the takeaway is the same: there’s no one right way to be turned on, and the future of pleasure is looking bright, bold, and beautifully diverse.
So cheers to another year of pushing buttons and boundaries. We'll see you in 2026… probably in incognito mode.
