It seems like lots of people are interested in posts featuring sex regardless of the context.

Yup... I've noticed that of what I've uploaded things that are sexual tend to get much more attention.
My top 10 uploads by score right now are only 60% safe posts, despite 95% of my posts being rated safe. The safe posts that do best are usually suggestive in some way (though there are a few that are just really cute).
Under a quarter of all Braixen posts uploaded here are safe, which I find highly unlikely to be a good statistical representation of all Braixen fanart.
I guess most users just use this site for porn.

Score is more obviously affected by that fact.
fluffy_pony order:score is full of porn and anthro.
fluffy_pony order:favcount gives me some quality abuse among porn.

What I don't know is whether they don't check rating:s posts at all, or just don't cast votes or faves since e621 doesn't show total post views.
