Did it include sexy discoveries with nameless, naked strangers? Were there any chains and safe words involved? Perhaps some slippery food play?
Regardless of how much sex you’ve been having, we hope you’ve learned something real and something new about your own pleasure this year.
From the data we gathered, we know the people in our Jerkmate community certainly have. But before we take a close look at our numbers, let’s talk about how horny people have been online in the past 12 months.
On one hand, 2022 was the end of mandatory COVID-19 safety measures worldwide. Lots of countries threw social distancing and mask mandates out the window. Dating apps have never been a stronger option to meet people IRL, despite the virus still lingering in our lives.
On the other hand, unprecedented inflation managed to make us rethink our life choices and prepare for the worst. But was all of that enough to tame our most basic instincts? Hmmm, let’s see!
In 2022, Internet users still turned to adult sites for xxx entertainment. In fact, every 60 seconds, more than 2.5 million people visit the world’s most popular porn sites for some good adult content.
According to SEMRush, the term “live sex cams” is one of the most requested sex-related terms on search engines worldwide, along with “webcam sex.” Since the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, there are more amateur cam models online than ever before.
Needless to say, live cams are unquestionably the most sought-after interactive sex experience of the past two years, and cam sites have been piling up monthly visitors and premium members by the millions. If the names Charturbate, StripChat, and CamSoda sound familiar, it’s for a reason. Like us, they’re among the list of many popular cam sites on the web. But they have one thing in common… They’re definitely not Jerkmate!
Being among the largest and most visited premium live cam sites on the Internet, Jerkmate is a trusted authority in the adult industry. Do not be mistaken! Jerkmate is not just another popular cam site. It’s also home to the most interactive sex games, an enticing and informative sex blog, and exclusive video content that can’t be found on tube sites.
For the past 12 months, Jerky, our bot assistant, has looked at the data gathered from our experts, and its observations are mind-blowing! We can’t wait to show you the numbers that really stood out in 2022.
Let’s take a look!
This year, the average age in the Jerkmate community is 37 years, one year older than in 2021.
Again, Gen Z takes the biggest part of the pie chart with 27% of our yearly page view numbers, followed by millennials (26%) between the ages of 25 and 34, who land on our cam site for the best cams and free sex games you can find.
Were people as or less horny in 2022? We can’t say. But according to the Tenga Global Self-Pleasure Report of 2021, 68% of Americans used masturbation as a form of self-care during the quarantine, and 50% of them made it part of their weekly self-care routine! This gives a whole new meaning to the concept of self-care Sunday!
Though the COVID-19 pandemic isn't over, it has shown us that habits created during the lockdown tend to stay. So if Gen Zs and Millennials prefer remote work to make a living, what’s to say they’ll leave the house for a hookup?
A pleasant observation on the gender side! This year, women of all ages still accounted for 30% of all the people who enjoyed Jerkmate’s live cams. Also, more men over the age of 45 visited, precisely 8% more between 45 and 54, and 4% more between 55 and 64.
Overall, Jerkmate, a top cam site, is still significantly more popular with men (70%). But what could explain the divide between genders? In 2021, the Huffington Post UK writes about men masturbating 66% more frequently in a year than women, calling the phenomenon the “masturbation gap.” Four years earlier, you could read in The Great Esquire (2017) that 19% of men report acting on their fantasies as opposed to only 12% of women. Plus, 58% of men admit feeling horny daily compared with 17% of women.
This brings the question: are women really less horny than men? Or are they just sneakier?
Mobile is by far in all age groups the most preferred device to spend some hot, sexy time with Jerkmate’s camgirls and camguys. Indeed, in 2022 80% of our visitors used a mobile device, compared with 18% using a desktop, and only 2% joining the naked fun from a tablet.
Millennials will definitely not trade the intimacy of their smartphones for a big screen to chat with models—though it’s definitely possible from a smart TV, FYI.
But there’s one important device that’s being used more and more on Jerkmate, and somehow it escaped the data. Interactive vibrators are all the rage right now with our models, and they’re often the main accessory in private chat sessions. These sex toys can be activated remotely from any type of device, as long as you’re a premium Jerkmate member.
Interactive vibrators have been growing in popularity among our cam models in 2022, and they win as the kinkiest type of tech ever used on Jerkmate!
Regarding the top porn cam categories, 2021 and 2022 are very similar. Couples again made the top of the list as the #1 category enticing our horny visitors, with 5% more page views!
Jerky was happy to notice how the Trans category was second and more requested than in 2021, reinforcing the idea that diversity, especially in its beautiful LGBTQ+ form, is unwaveringly sexy! Ask our trans models yourself what brought them so much love in your next chat session.
Teen (18+) was hit in the U.S. last summer, and interestingly enough, it’s a winner worldwide in the entire world as the 3rd most popular camgirl category, despite a 5% drop in page views. It is and will remain a classic porn category worldwide. The schoolgirl uniform is the real deal and will never cease to seduce. But the Granny porn cams category certainly is a huge win for the hot middle-aged models. Milfs better keep their heads in the game!
Asian and Ebony female camgirls still hold 4th and 5th positions firmly as top camgirl categories. But they’d better watch out! You’ll see below that Indian–a distinct category on the Jerkmate site–is 3rd and is growing more popular in porn cam searches.
Interestingly, these numbers are consistent with top trends in the porn video world, with Ebony and Japanese being, respectively, the 2nd and 3rd most viewed categories on Pornhub.
Squirting: some believe it’s an art, others a pee science. No matter where you stand, the term Squirt remains the most searched term in the past 2 years.
The sexy yet cryptic acronym CEI (Cum Eating Instructions) sent Jerky to the Urban dictionary scratching its bot head. Popularized by the BDSM community, it’s now one of the numerous kinks you can chat about with our Femdom models, another top porn cam searched term.
Deepthroat is now a top 15 searched term on Jerkmate, and must, by default, be linked to the coolest performances with dildos on the cam site.
The cam search Trans, this time as a top searched term, shatters all assumptions that men are only turned on by women. Our LGBTQ+ cam models can testify. It’s time to throw away our theories about heterosexual desire. Diversity is sexier than ever, and trans cam models are proof!
The term Feet is not as searched as in 2021, but interestingly enough, most of the top searched models in 2022 have a foot fetish. It might be one of the most underrated kinks in bed to this day!
For another year in a row, the same three top tier-1 countries, US, UK, and Canada, dominate the top 12 with the most page views.
Germany, however, went up 1 position with an increase of 7% in page views in 2022. France also worked its way up despite a significant 21% loss of visitors. Australia splendidly went up 1 position with 32% more Internet users on Jerkmate to watch live cams or check out Jerkmate’s exclusive videos.
We can’t talk about country variation without mentioning South Africa, which is now part of the top 12 countries with 49% more visitors than in 2021. That’s huge! Jerkmate also made incredible strides with Spain’s page view numbers which doubled. Jerky’s ecstatic!
In 2022, visitors were eager to see the hottest Jerkmate camgirls. The diversity in the top 10 shows just how hot and inclusive our community is.
In 5th position, we have Amber Alena, the model whose head-turning pair made “big tits” sound average. Her N-cup assets have left more than one breathless in front of their screens this year. When asked why she got the augmentation, she says: “I got them done for myself and no other reason.” Amber Alena is leaving her mark in the Jerkmate community with her bondage, deepthroat, and foot fetish penchants. Receiving tokens is her love language, so be sure to leave her some next time you stop by her cam room.
Fourth comes Amy Quinn: sleep-show expert and submissive playmate. She’ll get turned on by any don or femdom visitor that comes to her cam room. Ask her about her foot fetish in your next private chat session, and watch her rock the hell out of her nylon stockings in real time. Don’t forget to stop by her profile to check out her hot videos, and tell her which ones made the top of your naughty watching list.
Our 3rd most popular camgirl, Nikki Juggs holds a special place in Jerky’s half-pink heart with her pink hair. She will go crazy interactive vibrator. Save your tokens to wake her up during one of her nap shows, and she’ll be focusing on your dreams. Enjoy a full session of fun with no bounds with Jerky’s secretly favorite girl, Nikki Juggs.
She comes close second, but she’ll make you climax first in her cam room. It’s the adult teen girl of your dreams, Teenie Marie. This petite black-haired bi model is highly skilled with interactive vibrators. Teenie Marie has a foot fetish, and she’s a strong dominant. Her expertise in naked teasing will excite you until you can’t take it anymore.
The number one on our visitors’ minds, the 1st and most popular camgirl, is ClaraVanessa. The tall Latina blonde takes fantasies very seriously. In her room, she’ll never be an amateur model. She’ll use nap shows, interactive vibrators, and spanking to keep things interesting for all the horny minds on her path. Hail to the queen of xxx cam, ClaraVanessa!
