Seeing hugging and cuddling makes me curious. Are there videos of people just cuddling on those kinds of platforms? That seems really wholesome unless it's awkward naked cuddles.
It also surprises me that so many of the top searches include things I feel are labeled as kinks. Aren't they things that only small demographics enjoy, if so many people enjoy it is maybe wrong to perceive it that way?
On your second paragraph, notice its "relative searches" which it then explains in the subheading. Not top searches.
If debauchery like "hand-holding" got 0.5% of searches in one state while in other states it got 0.1% of searches, and there wasnt as much a difference for other terms, thats the top relative search.
But it doesnt tell us anything about how many people actually searched for it.
I understood it as the one with the highest percentage in that state at first. What you said makes a lot more sense and is a bit of a relief.
Im guessing the map wouldnt get much attention for top searches, those would probably be very normal things, so they went for this method :)
What's awkward about naked cuddles? As a queer woman it's probably my favourite thing to do with a partner. Skin to skin contact is just really healing.
Maybe it's just lack of experience, I suppose with certain people it wouldn't be too bad. The hair might be annoying as not all of it as soft as on my head but I think I'd be uncomfortable.
