When it comes to what Australians are really into in the bedroom, the answer might just be hiding in plain sight, in their Google search history. From BDSM to voyeurism, orgasm control, and everything in between, kink curiosity is on the rise across Australia.
Whether you’re new to kink, exploring your desires for the first time, or simply interested in what others are up to, this playful, data-driven blog dives deep into Australia’s most searched sexual interests and how you can explore them safely, confidently, and pleasurably.
What Australians Are Searching For: The Most Googled Kinks in 2025
Thanks to reports from sources including ELLE, Wikipedia and more, we know that the top three most Googled kinks in Australia this year are:
| Rank | Kink |
|---|---|
| 1 | BDSM |
| 2 | Voyeurism |
| 3 | Threesomes |
BDSM sits comfortably at the top, showing that Aussies are increasingly curious about dominance, submission, bondage, and impact play. Voyeurism and threesomes also rank high, reflecting a growing fascination with shared and observed pleasure.
Popular sexual position searches, such as doggy style and reverse cowgirl, also reveal a broader openness toward physical exploration.
On the toy front, Australians are frequently searching for:
These search trends mirror global patterns while giving us insight into Australia’s unique sexual appetite, shaped by cultural freedom, digital exploration, and generational change.
Gen Z: Leading the Way in Kink Curiosity
Often dubbed the “kinkiest generation yet,” Gen Z is driving this curiosity forward with less stigma and more openness. Unlike previous generations, Gen Z:
-
Views sex as a spectrum of exploration, rather than a checklist
-
Embraces ethical non-monogamy, consent-based kink, and body positivity
-
Discusses kinks openly across social platforms, reshaping the language around pleasure
This generation isn’t just experimenting; they’re changing how kink is represented, discussed, and normalised in Australian society. And they’re not shy about searching for it, either.
Global Kink Trends and Australia’s Spicy Role
Globally, these kinks are topping the charts:
While many of these terms are also trending in Australia, one uniquely Aussie standout is “dogging”, a form of public or semi-public group or couple sex, often in outdoor or car park settings. Although niche, it's a strong signal that public play and thrill-based experiences have a distinct following down under.
Choking, Asphyxiation Play and the Rise in Risky Trends
One of the most concerning yet increasingly common kinks among 18–35-year-old Australians is choking during sex, also known as erotic asphyxiation.
Recent local research shows that 57% of this age group has participated in choking-related play (Adelaide Now, Red Search). While many see it as a form of control or intensity, choking carries serious physical risks when not understood or practised safely.
Rather than discouraging kink altogether, this is a perfect opportunity to talk about safer ways to explore dominance, submission, and control, especially for those new to kink or learning with a partner.

How to Explore Kink Safely and Confidently
Curiosity is natural. Exploring kink is exciting, but it should also be safe, consensual, and well-communicated. Whether you're playing with a partner or flying solo, here's how to explore responsibly:
Consent Comes First
Always discuss boundaries before play begins. Use tools like safe-words and clear communication to stay on the same page.

The Takeaway: Curiosity Is Normal, Kink Is Natural
When we see what other people are searching for, especially when it comes to kink, it helps to normalise what might otherwise feel secret, strange, or taboo. Whether you’re into light bondage, voyeurism, impact play, or just reading about it out of curiosity, know this:
You’re not alone.
You’re not “weird.”
And your interest is completely valid.
Kink is a form of self-expression. Like any part of sexuality, it thrives when built on communication, consent, and exploration.
