Sex coach and doctor of human sexuality Dr. Stacy Friedman told Pornhub that, "The increase in searches of 'how to', shows that people are finally feeling more comfortable looking at how to improve their sex lives. Since the discussion of sex has been taboo for so long, relationships have suffered because there aren’t many places to learn about sex. Since we have had the pandemic, I believe that couples are realizing they need more help in the bedroom, so there is more research out there that they can find information. People want to know how to enjoy their sexuality more." Pornhub 2021 Year In Review: Lana Rhoades to Mia Malkova, Most Searched Porn Stars.
