Make sense rights? Suddenly we have to isolated ourselves from the outside world, do everything from home, can’t socialize freely, and become more dependent on technology. As humans, of course with all the restriction that happened in this time, sooner or later, we would feel bored, lonely, and depressed.
Now, one of the keys to getting out from all this anxiety is the technology that we have, such as playing video games, listening to music, working, and studying through online. We do all that with our gadget. Until finally PornHub released premium access freely to the worldwide, it seems to be the right thing as a distraction for people who felt bored and depressed from this pandemic.
Atsil Wasilah, Youtuber and sex educator saidd that porn videos as something that can be entertaining, so people watch it not to educate them or something else, but only for entertainment.
“It’s the same like when we are watching Korean dramas or playing video games. Is that something bad? For me not really. Once again, I said that watching porn is a form of entertainment, so this depends on each individual’s perspective on porn film. For me, myself, and I don’t mind if people watching porn. I believe that everyone has and know their own portion [in watching porn],” she said.
Atsil Wasilah or known as Sisil said that watching porn was like watching Korean dramas and playing video games, which can spend hours of our time. She felt the three things could have the same entertaining context. Maybe this statement will be debated because of the negative sound when we heard ‘watch porn’.
Aside from being entertainment in killing boredom, depending on the criteria of the users or viewers of porn sites, it might be an alternative sex education for married people to strengthen their relationship.
“For those who have a partner, especially married people. This can be see as a different perspective. In a more mature certainly. No longer looking for the answer to curiosity, but looking for material that can be practiced to their partners. Erotica’s films can be a stimulant for a couples to be more inspired to do other things, like adding some spice to the relationship,” added by Sisil.
What’s interesting is Kara or Sisil, said Pornhub that offered premium access for free was not a problem that must be issued because it did not harm anyone. Otherwise, they assumed that could be a win-win solution. However, Pornhub is also a business company, which can be said to use this pandemic to increase their profits by being offered free premium access.
