Kink Across Ethnic Groups (The Sordid Statistics)

In this episode of Based Camp, Simone & Malcolm Collins dive into a fan-submitted hypothesis: Could differences in natural sex drive (and testosterone levels) across ethnic groups explain why some populations produce more “weird” kinks/fetishes (tentacle porn, hentai extremes in Asia; BDSM/dungeons in white/Western circles; vanilla/missionary dominance in Hispanic/Latino groups)?

We break down Pornhub session times (Japan slowest at ~11 min, Mexico fastest), search trends by country (lesbian #1 in West, femboy/trans rising in some places), testosterone data (surprising wins for Hispanic men, modest black > white differences after adjustments, Asians often lowest), Catholic vs Protestant horniness (Catholics report more frequent sex + higher approval of pleasure-only sex), historical seduction styles (European chase vs Imperial Chinese “burrito delivery”), and why extreme fetishes might emerge in lower-arousal groups needing more stimulation.

We also touch on emerging trends like sissy/feminization/NTR porn, racial fetishization concerns, and whether Catholicism harnesses horniness for higher fertility. Data-heavy, assumption-busting, and NSFW — viewer discretion advised!

Episode Transcript

Malcolm Collins: Hello Simone. I’m excited to be here with you today. Today we are gonna be discussing a concept a fan of ours brought up. I heard it and I was like, Hey, that’s interesting. I wanna dig into that, see what the data says. So they were like, when they were younger and they were into like the science of racial differences and stuff like this.

They had remembered seeing a hypothesis. And the hypothesis went like this. If you take ethnic groups and you sort them by how horny they get naturally, right? Like, like how horny is this group? How horny is this girl? How susceptible are they? It typically goes Asians at the bottom, then whites, then Hispanics, then Africans.

And he said, and this is potentially why you see. Higher levels of weird kinks and fetish content within populations, like within the most, being within Asian populations, right? ‘cause this is where Tai and all of that weirdness comes from. And, you know, even tentacle porn going back to like, you know, medieval period and stuff

like the Fisherman’s Wife.

And then you see, you know. More, but not as much in white populations than you see less in Hispanic populations. And then you see very little in black populations.

Simone Collins: Well, and and it was posited in these materials that it was because of differing tech. Testosterone levels, average testosterone levels across these groups.

So if you’ve really high testosterone. Your sex drive is a lot higher. So theoretically in groups it had higher average testosterone. You kind of just need less to get turned on. You’re just ready to go. Whereas if you have very low test testosterone, you’ve gotta like, oh, well the temperature is to be just right in this weird turn on and the blah, blah, blah, blah.

And so maybe that’s why, but I, I don’t know. I don’t do, we have data on differing testosterone levels by. Broad ethnic group or geographical cluster or, I don’t know. I didn’t look into

Malcolm Collins: that.

Simone Collins: Yes, there are some observed differences. In average testosterone levels typically measured as serum total testosterone or free testosterone across broad racial or ethnic population groups. Though the patterns are nuanced, often modest after adjustments. Like BMI, obesity, lifestyle factors, and sometimes inconsistent across studies, large scale US data and metadata analysis provide the most reliable insights, primarily comparing groups like non-Hispanic, black, African ancestry, non-Hispanic, white European ancestry, and Mexican-American, Hispanic to, to a lesser extent Asian groups.

Blah, blah, blah. Key findings, African ancestry versus white European ancestry. Men, many studies note show no significant difference in testosterone after age and other adjustments. So not notable difference. Mexican Americans, Hispanic men, often show the highest total testosterone in US studies. That’s interesting.

So they see the Mexican American men as having the highest testosterone. Asian men tend to have lower levels compared to other groups. In available data. So there’s that.

Malcolm Collins: That’s what I found too.

Simone Collins: Okay. Yeah, so, so black men modestly higher free testosterone than white men, east Asian groups lower. But

Malcolm Collins: Hispanics win.

But this is why this, it’s so interesting. I’m going into this and I’m just keep having my assumptions overturned with things that I assumed, like I would’ve assumed black men had higher testosterone than Hispanics, for example.

Simone Collins: Well, you think when you consider even just the the industries in which you tend to see black people por perform like in various athletic fields, and I, you typically associate being an elite athlete with higher levels of testosterone.

So if a population has a. In general, higher levels of testosterone, you’d expect them to be the ones who sweep at the Olympics, for example, right? Like in the, it’s always the runners, like they tend to be from Africa, et cetera, right? Mm-hmm. Basketball players, but that’s, that’s because of height. Why?

Why are, why are Hispanics not cleaning up? In the Olympics. How come?

Malcolm Collins: Well, I suspect it’s due to genetic different. I know we’re not supposed to talk about this, but it’s not just testosterone that matters. Guess Palo, the, the, the person who,

Simone Collins: oh, do you think it’s the, it insufficient height then? So it’s like height plus testosterone equals athletic prowess.

Malcolm Collins: I don’t know. We’re gonna go over a bunch of different studies here. We’re gonna go into a lot of things. What we’ll come away from from today’s episode

Simone Collins: is actually, well, that actually makes a lot of sense. No, sorry. Because Hispanic equals basically European plus indigenous central and South American groups, and they tend to be on average of shorter stature.

So that makes sense.

Malcolm Collins: The indigenous groups are not the Southern Europeans.

Simone Collins: I know, but the whole point is if you are Hispanic, there’s

Malcolm Collins: really not that much indigenous blood in Hispanic populations, by the way. It’s, it’s, it’s well under 25% in most populations

Simone Collins: varies.

Malcolm Collins: It, it, it does vary, but if we’re talking on average

and I think that this is some weird rug pull that the Le Hispanic, when you see Hispanic Latino knows, are not just

Simone Collins: Europeans.

Malcolm Collins: It basically means Catholic Europeans. That is what Hispanic is. It is Southern Europeans. Southern

Simone Collins: European. Oh

Malcolm Collins: yeah. No, it just is, it is the, the Catholic, European, that is, that is the core differentiator between them and Americans. Right. Like and, and

Simone Collins: I guess the selective pressures are there too. Like Northern European Europeans would have been more comfortable with the North American colonies, which were colder at the time of colonization as well.

Whereas Northern, or sorry, Southern Europeans might get to like New England and be like, Uhuh. This is not gonna work for me.

Malcolm Collins: Well, they were, they were also really, really we’ve got done our
