Blowjobs are back, but new porn data shows we suck at searching for them
Boobs are getting all the attention lately, but let's not forget about that old porn classic: the blowjob.
Porn platform Redtube just released new data on what exactly people are looking for when it comes to BJs, and the results are, well, revealing.
For one thing, it appears that blowjobs have experienced a sudden resurgence of late. Since 2014, searches related to them have gone way up. There was an especially big jump up in the spring of 2016, for reasons unknown.
AdultFriendFinder — readers’ pick for casual connections
Hinge — popular choice for regular meetups
But the really funny thing is that there seems to be only one very boring way to find these videos: by searching the word “blowjob.”
A look at the most common search terms used on Redtube reveals a strikingly one-note approach. Come on, people, seriously? This is just lame.
Sure there are a few interesting adjectives being tossed around -- and “granny blowjobs” definitely does catch the eye. But where has all the poetry gone? This is just way too direct and to the point.
So next time you're on the hunt for a video featuring oral sex, why not try "getting head," or "waxing the carrot," or even the classic "fellatio," just to add a little variety?
