Mom, if you’re reading this, I want you to know that my editors forced me to write it.

Adult video-streaming service SugarDVD released an infographic showing that more PlayStation 4 owners search for BDSM (I don’t know what all of those initials stand for, but I’m pretty sure the first one is for bondage) content than people with Xbox One consoles. Android also beat out (bad choice of words) iOS. So, you know, it’s something I’m sure those companies will brag about in their next annual reports.

The whole BDSM culture received a huge boost in mainstream popularity thanks to the book Fifty Shades of Grey (which I know you read, Mom, so stop judging me). A movie based on the novel is hits theaters Friday. You can check out the whole infographic, with all of its dirty numbers and stats, below.

Now, excuse me while I go delete my browser history after having to google SugarDVD so I could write this story.
