Was looking through Google Trends (http://www.google.co.uk/trends ) when bored last week when it came to my attention looking through UK town/city searches Sheffield is in the top ten for every single sex term... literally.
A few dozen searches later and a lot of thinking for more terms I hit on "sex" and that's the only one Sheffield isn't on. Incidentally the top 4 cities for searching that worldwide are occupied by Turkish and Indian cities... hypocrites.
It can't be said it's to do with size with such deviant web searches- Leeds has 1/3 more population and Doncaster is 13th largest city so they should feature in the top ten... but don't.
Anyway here's the list and where Yorkshire cities feature in the top ten UK searches:
