News flash: Pornhub is 100 percent that b*tch. The adult content website has recently launched an initiative to help remove plastic from the Earth’s oceans and raise awareness about sea pollution. One truly does love to see it.
Pornhub has created a truly amazing concept, where every time a video specifically made for this initiative is watched, they will make a donation to Ocean Polymers – a nonprofit organization that plans to send out a ship to collect plastic waste in the sea. The film is entitled “The Dirtiest Porn on Earth,” and stars popular amateur porn couple Leolulu, who are seen having sex on a beach littered with trash.
As the scene goes on, people wearing Pornhub branded gear pick up the trash around them, which allows the viewer to see more of the sweet, sweet action. The film is meant to depict how an otherwise beautiful scene can be hidden by the trash we create. Genius. Gorgeous. Hang it in the Louvre.
Corey Price, Vice President of The United States of America Pornhub made the following statement about the project:
“As of today, 12.7 million tons of plastic can be found within the depths of our oceans. What’s perhaps even more shocking, is that scientists predict that there will be more plastic than fish within our oceans in only 30 years.
Ocean pollution has grown to become of the most significant global issues of our lifetime, and it’s only getting worse.
That’s why it’s imperative that we use our platform to raise awareness and inspire change – not just for the time being but for generations to come. We’re dirty here at Pornhub, but that doesn’t mean our beaches need to be.”
Pornhub has also created a website where viewers can find tips on how to avoid contributing to the plastic that is devastating the ocean and the creatures that call it home.
What you might not know is that this kind of inspirational, progressive activism is not at all out of character for Pornhub. In fact, the company has a history of raising both awareness and money for charity and social issues. They have an initiative called “Pornhub Cares,” which includes videos like the one in this story and helps aid charities, provide access to disabled persons, and educate the public about activism. In another initiative, the company
Like anyone/anything that capitalizes on sex work, Pornhub is often unfairly and inaccurately written off as “trashy” or “not legit.” But the truth is, like the work it promotes and supports, it’s very progressive. It’s literally helping people gaz (short for orgasm — try to keep up) while simultaneously helping save the world’s oceans. The true heroes.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some, ahem, activism to go watch.
Good news to those of you who like to fuck! Erotic short film site Pornhub is offering a $25,000 grant to college students who want to research human sexuality. Professors and students can use the grant to conduct any research that’ll bring about a better understanding of human sexuality and “ help people lead happier and healthier sex lives.” But, heads up, this isn’t an excuse to try and bang your cute TA. We’re not telling you to do that (for legal reasons.)
With those guidelines, I’ll gladly accept the money and just start telling all my friends to stop hooking up with dudes who text them after midnight. Done. I’m a scientist now.
Really, though, Pornhub is very open about what you do with the money and what kind of research it can be. It can be sociological, biological, or technological. You can get paid $25k to analyze dick pics if that’s what your heart desires.
Obviously, it has to adhere to like scientific guidelines and ethical standards, so you can’t like shame anyone’s dick pics or porn habits. You have to leave that to your group chat. But it is very cool to see a porn site want to promote sex positivity and knowledge and help more people get off. Aw, Pornhub is like the Mother Theresa of smut sites.
You have till May 1st to think of your sexiest ideas and apply for the grant. And no, your Spring break trip to Cabo does not count as “research,” no matter how sexual it may have been.
Heads up, you need to keep up with the news. It’s not cute anymore. That’s why we’ve created a 5x weekly newsletter called The ‘Sup that will explain all the news of the week in a hilarious af way. Because if we weren’t laughing, we’d be crying. Sign up for The ‘Sup now!
Even if Bachelor villainess/nap aficionado Corinne Olympios does not win Nick’s heart, she will still be able to take advantage of another once-in-a-lifetime opportunity thanks to PornHub aka the website your BF is always frantically exiting when you walk into the room unexpectedly.
After seeing Corinne’s epic 2 Chainz video performance, PornHub Records (because PornHub has a record company I guess…) sent the following letter offering Corinne and her extensions a starring role in their next music video.
So, let’s break this down. Based on this letter, PornHub is obviously a Bachelor fan (aren’t we all) but TBH they’re going to need to sweeten this deal if they want talent like Corinne. She is busy running her multimillion-dollar business, after all.
What multimillion-dollar business does Corinne run?
Like, sure, the letter offers her unlimited naps, but what about the unlimited access to the Champagne that Corinne needs to fuel said naps? And yes, they do offer a role for Raquel, but anyone who knows Corinne knows that 1) “sharing the spotlight” is not something that she’s interested in and 2) Raquel will be way too busy slicing cucumbers and making cheese pasta to be in a music video.
Basically, PornHub, you’re gonna need to do a lot more if you want to “make Corinne great again,” (I would argue that under Obama, Corinne actually already was great, but that’s an article for a different time…)
SIGN UP: Our Bachelor emails are the only thing more scandalous than the Fantasy Suite.
Corinne has expensive tastes (like, $1k on sweatpants expensive) so before she can sign on to a project like this, she’s gonna need to know where the nearest “exclusive” mall is, and will def need to be flown out early so that she can have the time to become BFF with all the sales associates.
A platinum vagine don’t come free, PornHub! But if you pay up, I think I speak for all Bachelor fans when I say, yeah, Corinne would probably do this.
