If the Midwest is America's heartland, apparently Washington, DC, is a somewhat lower-positioned organ. Leading smut website PornHub.com has announced that the nation's capital is the US leader when it comes to watching porn, as compared to the 50 states, reports the Washington Post. In fact, DC residents watch nearly twice as much pornography as any other state—an average of 14.18 videos a year per person, compared to 7.57 videos a person in Hawaii, 7.52 in Massachusetts, and 7.5 in New York. The Post suggests that perhaps one reason for the city's ranking is that it is so single, with just a quarter of DC residents married, or about half the rate of the rest of the country.
