Quick! Grab your iPhone and power up your favourite QR code-reading app, because these images are too explicit for us to post.

For the Museum of Sex’s “Universe of Desire” exhibit, neuroscientists and authors of the book A Billion Wicked Thoughts, Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam, looked at the internet habits of tens of thousands of people worldwide to determine our most popurlar naughty searches.

400 million internet searches were gathered and coded of which 13 per cent, or 55 million searches, pertained to some kind of erotic material.

These anonymous searches bring to question our identity by revealing both the expected “kinks” and “squicks” (squirm-inducing kinks), as well as the broad categories of shared desire that account for 80 per cent of internet searches, including “cheating partners”, “youth”, “mature” and various genitalia. Confronted with this research we begin to see just how similar and different we all are as humans.

Pause the video at any point to scan the QR code and see the material for yourself. [Museum of Sex Blog]
