As Thanksgiving Day rapidly approaches, Americans are winding up work responsibilities, finalizing travel plans, and—if a recent report from PornHub.com is to be believed—getting in all the masturbation they can. That’s because a new interactive infographic from the Internet’s jack-off fulcrum confirms what many mothers already choose to believe: No one touches themselves on major holidays. Or, fewer people, anyway, as PornHub traffic in the U.S. sees a nearly 30-percent drop-off on Thanksgiving, even though the Pilgrims specifically came to this country in order to escape that sort of Puritanical rule over when to spank it. Of course, then it spikes right back up the day after Thanksgiving, as all that talk about "stuffing" finally gets to Americans, while they wait in Black Friday lines and are forced to find a way to pass the time.

As you might expect, PornHub viewing is down across the globe on Christmas Day, when everyone is likely busy watching old-fashioned porn DVDs as a family. (That’s not the case in Japan, however, seeing as an estimated 90-percent of all Christmas gifts in Japan are porn-related.)
