Most Trending Search on Pornhub

The Porn Hub analytics team further revealed that people are more interested than ever before in ‘porn for women’, which was the most trending topic on the site in 2017.

Dr Laurie Betito, sex therapist at Porn Hub attributes this trend to women empowerment and the fact that women are becoming more openly assertive on what they want.

“From the “Me too” movement to prominent females the likes of Hillary Clinton and Nikki Haley on the world stage, women are feeling more empowered and they have found their voice. This is a sign of things to come.” Laurie said.

‘Lesbian’ also became the most searched word on Porn Hub in 2017 for the third year in a row.

“Lesbians have been the #1 fantasy of men since the beginning of time. For the men that aren’t likely to ever have a threesome with lesbians, this is an ideal way for them to live out their fantasy. We can’t ignore women viewers though; for women that have a soft fantasy or curiosity, lesbian porn allows them to explore that part of their sexuality without risk. Of course, for bi or lesbian women, this category is an obvious choice,” Laurie said
