    I always thought these were fake too. At the same time, I always kinda secretly hope I'll see a picture of some cutie I know, while fearing I may see someone I do not want to see.

    Also, what percentage of US women between 18-30 do you think have naked pics/video online somewhere? Seems like it must be significant, and theoretically you would eventually see someone you know because of it.

    Actually the odds are very low of ever seeing anyone you know.

    There are approximately 314 million people that live in the United States.

    Let's say I know 1,000 women as friends, coworkers, acquaintences, etc. That means my chances of seeing them in action on the Internet are 1 in 31.4 million.

    Not very good odds if you ask me.

    Thanks for the much-needed perspective. I think I'll stop watching porn now that I know that.

    But out of that 300 million, many are babies and elderly. The vast, vast majority is men and women between 18-35 or so who are, generally, reasonably fit and attractive. I don't think the odds are quite as overwhelming as you do. And keep in mind just how much porn there is online. Your hot coworker could be all over the internet and you could spend 20 hours a week watching and never see her.
