While the core audience for porn is predominantly male, there has been a surge in women porn viewers among the millennial generation (those born after 1980), an interesting study has revealed.

While 76 percent of the millennial porn viewers are men, 24 percent of millennial porn viewers are women now, said the study done by popular porn web platform Pornhub for Mic.com - a New York-based website focused on news for millennials.

"Perhaps if this trend continues, we will get to a place where porn is produced with both male and female fantasies in mind," the Mic study said.

According to the data, 60 percent of porn-watching millennials watch it on their smartphones while only 33 percent watch porn on computers.

For millennials, the average time spent on a porn site visit is nine minutes and 10 seconds.

People aged 35 and above spend more than a minute longer, clocking in 10 minutes and 15 seconds.

"Lesbian" is the most popular search term. The data, however, suggests that the people searching in this category are not actual lesbians.

The most popular adult star is Kim Kardashian, the data showed.
