Search by ALL videos that appear in two or more categories.
This really should be the number 1 priority upgrade, the power it would give you to access what you're looking for is incredible. I can't imagine why it hasn't ever been implemented, I guess maybe it would be quite technical? Maybe there just hasn't been enough demand for it because too many people are too dumb to see why it's an incredible idea?
Hey guys, you wouldn't ever have to search for the word 'Amateur' in the 'Lesbian' category again, or vice-versa, you'd just tick the 'Amateur' and 'Lesbian' box and you'd instantly see EVERY video in both those categories. Even (and this is the REAL beauty of it) even the ones that don't have the words 'Amateur' or 'Lesbian' in the title or description!!

This would be huge. The search box is pretty bad, as are result rankings, but implementing this would fix it completely for me.
Put checkboxes next to the categories. AND the checked categories together. Have the same "Top Rated" ranking system as current category results. I'd be able to get to exactly what I wanted most of the time without touching the search box.
As is, to search two categories, I end up putting one category in the search bar and restricting the results by the other category. The results are bad in terms of relevancy, though, as are their rankings.
Bonus for also having a way to exclude categories from results.

Yeah I've been always thinking why there isn't a search option like this. It's incredible.

Seriously. This is Website Search 101: using quotes for phrases and booleans or at least negation with the minus sign. Half the time, I have to search on Google to find shit on xhamster.... Lame.

Couldn't agree with you more. And why can we not uncheck all categories, rather than one at a time? (Unless I am missing something!)

Blindingly obvious. I can not understand why it isn't there anyway. Other sites have it, why not Hamster.

This is called Boolean searching and it's commonplace on Google and other search engines. Of course, the uploader has to categorize the video correctly, in each category -- but that's a problem that can be solved easily enough; in fact, most vids here already have multiple tags. These should be searchable.
