Homegrown Video Applauds the 13% of Americans Filming Sex Tapes

SEPTEMBER 18, 2013 — LOS ANGELES, CA – Homegrown Video, pioneers of the amateur porn genre since 1982, applauds the 13% – 18% of the American population who have admitted to having filmed themselves having sex.

“13%, even 18% - that number may seem small,” says Homegrown Video owner Farrell Timlake. “In reality, given the American population, it translates to 41 to 56 million people, all making sexy videos. How awesome is that?”

An online survey by Adam & Eve in August asked adults if they had ever made a sex tape of their own. Of the 13% of women and the 18% of men who had admitted to having created a personal sex tape, an overwhelming 60% said that they saved the videos to enjoy again and again.

“We thank Adam & Eve for taking the time to conduct this research study,” Homegrown Video CEO Spike Goldberg says. “We’re extremely proud to represent America’s 13%. For those who may be interested in dipping their toes into making their own amateur sex tapes, we encourage them to visit our site for tips, and to AdamAndEve.com for props, lingerie, and other accessories. Of course, they are encouraged to submit those video creations to us as well.”

All amateurs are invited to submit their homemade adult movies to Homegrown Video here. In addition to submitting sex tapes, Homegrown Video encourages amateurs around the world to submit safe-for-work clips, video suggestions, and funny at-home interviews for the YouTube Page. To submit, email press@homegrownvideo.com.

Homegrown Video also announces the launch of its new Homegrown Video Retail Display Contest.
