Pornhub… have you heard of it? ;)
Yes, you probably have- along with 80 million other visitors to the site every day. Some of those are… women - and they’re not just browsing the “Porn for Women” category...
Women, in general, obviously have an interest in sex that breeches the sitcom trope of begrudgingly “letting” it happen to them; an inconveniencing act which takes them away from other things they’d rather be doing. Like folding laundry. Or making you dinner.
Sex while menstruating is a complex situation to navigate for some people. Many women just feel gross, shameful, and don’t even try initiating sex- while others are aggressively hyper sexual during that time. Regardless, there is a proven surge in sexual desire that many women experience while on their periods. Whether it be with partners or alone, there are multiple benefits of having orgasms during this time. The pain and stress relief that orgasms provide is undeniable. Whether it be for lessening cramps or the desire to rip the jugular out of an annoying co-worker, orgasms can help.
However, it's still somewhat taboo of a subject, this bloody time of the month. It can be confusing for partners to try and figure out how to talk about it.
“Do you think it’s gross?”
“Will it hurt you?”
“Is it messy?”
“I’m nervous about it going everywhere!”
So- we need to destigmatize menstruation and normalize sex while on periods- because it can help bring relief, and some women want it- a lot.
That’s not to discount the many people who don’t identify as women, and still menstruate. I’m glad Pornhub realizes this too.
They are offering to ALL menstruators:
Free Pornhub Premium access during their periods
This is a new initiative of the adult video giant to help encourage women to embrace their sexual desires during that time of the month that many consider “un-sexy”. This is what they have to say:
“It’s a chance for us to help take some of the bite out of shark week by providing you with the perfect motivational material for some much needed sexual healing: Pornhub Premium. Because an orgasm a day keeps the Midol away.”
Their program is intended to be the first of many catered more towards their growing female viewers. It’s aptly called, “F*ck Your Period”.
The campaign site states that they will give you free access to the service during your next few periods. They have a few questions in an attempt to calculate when this will happen:
Then they promise to send you an email at the estimated beginning of your next cycle with login access to their Premium service. There, a "Pornucopia" awaits.
