Reports

written, long-form analyses
Big Kink Survey
Who's Into Bestiality?
~10% report some arousal to animals. Which animals, who's into it — and what's actually unique about them once you compare against equally kinky people.

 Big Kink Survey
Autogynephilia, Measured At Scale
Blanchard's own items on 285,000 people: AGP fantasy is common in cis straight men, the mirror exists in women — and the famous typology comes out backwards.
Read report →
 Big Kink Survey
The Six Gender Identities
Cis, trans, and nonbinary people compared across a million respondents — orientation, mental health, trauma, sex life, and sharply split kink fingerprints.

 Big Kink Survey
Who's Into Sissification?
12% are into degradation-by-feminization — peaking at 38% of bi men. Its kink signature is gender-transformation, not BDSM, and the one trait that survives is autism.

 Big Kink Survey
What Drives PMS?
Religion vs class vs temperament, head-to-head: neuroticism dwarfs all, the religiosity gradient survives controls, the class gradient collapses — and leaving the faith doesn't help.

 Big Kink Survey
How Bad Is PMS?
91% of menstruating women report mood PMS, 17% severe. What predicts a worse case — mental health, upbringing, religion, country — and why the pill barely moves it.

 Big Kink Survey
Behavior Across the Cycle
111,000 women, phase by phase: libido and attraction to masculinity both peak at ovulation — and the peak survives hormonal birth control.
Read report →
 Porn & Incentives
Does Porn Create Desire?
8,400 people on whether porn would make a man actually try 19 acts. "It would change HIM, not me" — and the gap grows with taboo (r=0.71). Folk belief runs opposite to the BKS data.
Read report →
 Big Kink Survey
Pornography Use
What a million kinky people reveal about porn — prevalence, onset, shame, healing, and effects on sex life.
Read report →
 Big Kink Survey
The Shame Map
Which desires feel wrong: shame tracks taboo content (non-consent, humiliation, incest) — not porn use, kinkiness, neuroticism, or religion.
Read report →
 Big Kink Survey
Are Fetishes Born or Made?
Innate or caused by experience? Five lines of evidence — timing, porn, trauma, sex differences, generations — with the obvious confounders controlled.
Read report →
 Big Kink Survey
Fetish Onset & Porn
When fetishes begin, why early ones run stronger, which kinks track porn use — and which fetishes predate porn entirely.
Read report →
 Sex Perspective
Porn & Predicting Desire
How men predict women's sexual tastes, how often they're wrong, and what porn use has to do with it.
Read report →
 Relationship Survey
Mono vs Poly
50,000 people across the monogamy–polyamory spectrum: flourishing, jealousy, sex, and cheating — and why the ambivalent middle does worst.
Read report →
 Relationship Survey
Relationships Over Time
From month 1 to year 33: passion's long slide, the sex-frequency clock, rising security, eroding transparency — and whether couples drift poly.
Read report →
 Relationships
Who Cheats?
Who cheats, who gets cheated on, and the traits and circumstances that predict it.

Childhood Survey

"was your childhood heaven or hell" · n=43,872
Childhood Survey
What Part of a Bad Childhood Does the Damage?
Seven childhood axes compete: sad-loner dominates everything, broken home collapses to zero — plus the 9% with hellish childhoods who are thriving anyway.
Read report →
 Childhood Survey
The Anatomy of Childhood Sexual Abuse
Perpetrator, severity, frequency, grooming vs coercion, who knew and how they reacted — which dimensions actually carry the adult damage, all entered together.
Read report →
 Childhood Survey
Does Spanking Hurt — Or Only Angry Spanking?
Angry vs calm spanking against the household around it: ~90% of the spanking penalty is the chaos, calm spanking collapses to zero — but angry hitting still adds harm.
Read report →
 Childhood Survey
Purity Culture: What Happens to the Kids?
The repression→kink theory mostly fails — and the worst-off group anywhere is high-purity kids who left the faith. Obedience-as-virtue best predicts being at war with yourself.
Read report →
 Childhood Survey
Who Admits It? The Perpetration Question
12% say they've had a sexual experience with someone who didn't want it. The abuse→abuser cycle tested directly — real, but smaller and stranger than the cliché.
