If you had to choose between Netflix and sex, which would you pick?

Seriously, consider it. On the one hand, you know, sex. But on the other hand, House of Cards. It's a difficult question, and one we shouldn't take lightly. Luckily for us, Twitter already has the answer.

The folks at Movoto analyzed more than 300,000 tweets that contained 30 common terms. The data allowed them to see how many Twitter users from a given state were tweeting about each term. Then they compared the results of separate terms against one another -- creating a sort of "election of morals."

The results are fascinating and hilarious. For example, in the sex vs. church comparison, the Bible Belt states -- true to form -- tweeted about church much more than their northern counterparts. And in the Netflix vs. sex comparison, a chain of Midwestern states, which we'll call the "Netflix parabola," has cast their tweet-votes for the binge-watching service.

Check out the full results of the analysis below.
