Before Fifty Shades of Grey made steamy encounters part of mainstream conversation, people mostly talked about their sexual proclivities in hushed tones behind closed doors. But according to a recent study on sexual diversity in the United States, more than 22 percent of sexually active adults admitted to enjoying role-playing, and another 20 percent said they enjoyed being tied up. While those stats are in regards to the U.S. on a whole, we at Best Life set out to delve deeper into which state is home to the Americans who are the freakiest in the sheets.

To do that, we used data revealed by PornHub's statisticians on the popularity of BDSM searches in each state by showing the percentage above or below what the national average is for these types of searches. For context, BDSM (which stands for Bondage, Discipline, Dominance, Submission, Sadism, and Masochism) is known as one of the most popular sexual genres. (Note: This data was not available for Delaware, New Jersey, and Rhode Island.)

We then factored in the number of swingers—people who engage in group sex and/or the consensual swapping of sexual partners—per 10,000 residents in every state. (A blog called Sex Club Diary published this data based on research conducted by using AdultFriendFinder, a dating site that is popular among swingers in the U.S.)

Lastly, Lovehoney, a U.K.-based company that sells sex toys in America, shared exclusive data with Best Life that shows how much sales increased during the period of March 3, 2020 to Jan. 4, 2021 compared with sales from the same period the year prior.

Finally, we gave each of these three metrics a weighted value before running them through our exclusive algorithm to see how each state scored on our 100-point scale Freaky Index, with 0 being the least freaky and 100 being the most.

Read on to discover the freakiest state in America and to learn how freaky (or vanilla) the sex lives of people in your state are. And for more scandalous activities happening around the country, This Is the Most Adulterous State in America.
