[[File:RationalWiki audience interest in pornography 1-10-2022 1.jpg|thumbnail|1200px|center|[[RationalWiki and web traffic|RationalWiki.org]] is a politically [[leftism|left]] leaning website that skews towards [[atheism]]/[[agnosticism]] in terms of its [[worldview]]. 
<br />
<br />
The editors of the website RationalWiki try to portray the website as a thinking person's [[wiki]] where the editors carefully analyze various matters. 
<br />
<br />
But SimilarWeb.com data shows a significant portion of RationalWiki's web audience is interested in "adult" material as can be seen by the "adult" audience interests in the above graphic.   
<br />
<br />
Atheists have played a significant role in both the production and consumption of pornographic material (See: [[Atheism and pornography]] and [[Atheism and child pornography]]). 
<br />

Many feminists contend that pornography exploits women.<ref>[https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/feminist-sex-markets/ Feminist Perspectives on Sex Markets], The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, October 6, 2020</ref> RationalWiki is a pro-[[feminism]] website.<ref>[https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Feminism RationalWiki - Feminism]</ref> ]]

==== Trustworthiness of websites linking to RationalWiki ====

[[File:RationalWiki domain inbound links trustflow vs. citation flow.jpg|thumbnail|center|1000px|According to the leading search engine optimization website Search Engine Land: "Citation Flow is a number of predicting how influential a URL might be based on how many sites link to it. Trust Flow is a number predicting how trustworthy a page is based on how trustworthy sites tend to link to trustworthy neighbors."<ref>[https://searchengineland.com/majestic-seo-announces-new-link-metrics-trust-flow-citation-flow-121230 Majestic SEO Announces New Link Metrics: Trust Flow & Citation Flow]</ref>
<br />
<br />
As far as a website's domain, high authority and trustworthy websites commonly have their trustflow metric higher than their citation flow metric. As can been above, RationalWiki has the exact opposite. Perhaps its web visitors who visit adult websites link to RationalWiki from low quality websites that are untrusted. ]]
