Even though parts of the country are opening up, there are still many people who would rather stay protected from the virus inside their homes. Because of this, we&#8217;re starting to see a dramatic change in online search habits that are also leading many people to turn to porn, most likely because of idle internet time.

Once the government started shutting down due to the pandemic, people were forced to stay indoors and only go out for essential needs. This led to an increase in porn viewing during the <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.socialcatfish.cloud\/scamfish\/top-10-most-catfished-photos-for-the-month-of-march\/\">month of March<\/a>, where views on an average day rose to 6.4%.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">PornHub Viewing in the United States by Hour<\/h3>\n<p>&lt;<iframe style=\"max-width: 700px; margin: 0px auto; display: block;\" src=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/external\/graph\/csi-2302\/02.php\" width=\"100%\" frameborder=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-same-origin\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nAlso taken from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pornhub.com\/insights\/corona-virus\">PornHub<\/a>, this data table shows the hourly viewing increase on March 17th compared to what it used to be before the coronavirus quarantine. According to this graph, there was a 40.3% increase in viewers in the middle of the night and a 26.8% increase in viewers in the middle of the day. This goes to show that because of the pandemic, people were <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.socialcatfish.cloud\/scamfish\/5-online-dating-tips-to-follow-this-valentines-day-stay-safe-from-romance-scammers\/\">staying up late at night and were stuck at home during the day<\/a>, looking for something to pass the time.

Zoom is a video conferencing platform that a lot of <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.socialcatfish.cloud\/scamfish\/how-to-verify-the-identity-of-someone-you-meet-online-3\/\">online schools and workplaces are using for professional meetings<\/a> or classes.

Even though there are slight decreases during this period of time, it is still apparent that traffic is continuing to increase compared to what it used to be back in early March. Even if we focused on just the United States, we can see that the amount of users on PornHub continues to remain steady from March-July since the coronavirus restrictions began.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve definitely noticed an uptick in porn use since the pandemic and it could be from a combination of factors. First, it could be from increased time on the computer because of the quarantine. Second, it could be from increased marital tension from the pandemic so more people are outsourcing to porn. Third, it could be from an increased need for pleasure to medicate the stress from the pandemic, similar to those turning to substances,&#8221; Dr. Wyatt Fisher, author of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drwyattfisher.com\/pages\/best-marriage-books\">Best Marriage Books of 2020<\/a>, has stated.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"02\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Have People&#8217;s Pornography Interests Changed Due to the Coronavirus?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><iframe style=\"max-width: 700px; margin: 0px auto; display: block;\" src=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/external\/graph\/csi-2302\/05.php\" width=\"100%\" frameborder=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-same-origin\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nTaken from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pornhub.com\/insights\/corona-virus\">PornHub<\/a>, this graph from March of 2020 shows the rate that coronavirus related porn searches have increased. When the coronavirus was first spreading throughout the United States, Washington D.C., New York, and Washington were some of the top states that had the most coronavirus cases. Because of this, they were forced to have stricter quarantine laws before anyone else back in March. Because people had nothing else to do, pornography viewing in the United States increased and so did the <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.socialcatfish.cloud\/scamfish\/understanding-onlyfans-search-history-privacy-and-implications\/\">search history<\/a> on PornHub. People don&#8217;t want to watch the same type of porn on a daily basis, so people looked into what was new in the world&#8230; and at the time it was the coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"max-width: 700px; margin: 0px auto; display: block;\" src=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/external\/graph\/csi-2302\/06.php\" width=\"100%\" frameborder=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-same-origin\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"max-width: 700px; margin: 0px auto; display: block;\" src=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/external\/graph\/csi-2302\/07.php\" width=\"100%\" frameborder=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-same-origin\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"max-width: 700px; margin: 0px auto; display: block;\" src=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/external\/graph\/csi-2302\/08.php\" width=\"100%\" frameborder=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-same-origin\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>As you can see with both of these Google Trends charts, there is a similar correlation between the search terms <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.socialcatfish.cloud\/scamfish\/face-mask-exempt-cards-are-these-the-latest-covid-19-scam-or-do-they-actually-exist\/\">&#8220;face mask<\/a> porn&#8221; and &#8220;coronavirus&#8221;, showing the rise of popularity of face mask porn as the coronavirus started. As we quarantined at home, we started to see the environment around us change as more and more people started wearing face masks and gloves while doing necessary things like getting food or grocery shopping. In a way, it started becoming the new normal that was being engraved in our brains and shaping our behavior to become curious as to what the world would be like when we got intimate with our partners. Therefore, it started shaping the curiosity of us to look up different terms related to the coronavirus once it started.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">The Precautions Porn Production Companies are Taking As They Return Back to Set<\/h3>\n[aesop_image  img=&#8221;https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Film-slate-355888-scaled.jpg&#8221; panorama=&#8221;off&#8221; imgwidth=&#8221;100%&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;off&#8221; captionsrc=&#8221;custom&#8221; captionposition=&#8221;left&#8221; revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221; overlay_revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221;]\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/culture\/culture-features\/coronavirus-porn-industry-pandemic-gang-bang-milf-covid-19-1027729\/\">Rolling Stone<\/a>, major porn production companies are making serious changes to how they film pornography in order to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19. While everyone is required to wear masks on set, the actors are not required to wear them while they are on camera because of &#8220;saleability and you&#8217;re already in close contact with somebody.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They are also requiring porn stars to get tested 24 hours in advance of a shoot to make sure they don&#8217;t have the virus. Porn production company Falcon\/Naked Sword are not allowing porn stars to Uber in another person&#8217;s car to set. They are also paying for them to quarantine in a hotel room after the test and before the shoot, and are also monitoring their <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.socialcatfish.cloud\/scamfish\/how-to-secure-your-social-media-accounts-and-protect-your-personal-information\/\">social media accounts<\/a> to make sure they aren&#8217;t partying in groups before the shoot.<\/p>\n<p>They are also focusing on sex acts between two people. There will be\u00a0no \u201cfoursomes, gang bangs, multiple sex partner scenes, anything around swingers that has a lot of people on set,\u201d Rolling Stone has reported when interviewing Patrick, the\u00a0content director for adult streaming service AdultTime. There will also be no exchanging of a lot of bodily fluids.<\/p>\n<p>This could change what people are into in the future since certain sexual acts will be withheld from the newer videos. While pornography production companies are not required to have their actors wear masks on set, a lot of actors don&#8217;t want to go back to set because of the risks involved. This could mean more videos where masks and distanced sexual positions are used, with only two people, and less physical contact. This is the future of pornography, at least for now, and our human behaviors of what we are into will most likely change with the trends.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"03\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Coronavirus Porn Scams Have Increased Due to the Increase of Porn Users<\/strong><\/h2>\n[aesop_image  img=&#8221;https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Anonymous-hacker-at-work-401508-scaled.jpg&#8221; panorama=&#8221;off&#8221; imgwidth=&#8221;100%&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;off&#8221; captionsrc=&#8221;custom&#8221; captionposition=&#8221;left&#8221; revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221; overlay_revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221;]\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wp.socialcatfish.cloud\/scamfish\/how-scammers-prey-on-our-fears-and-desires-understanding-the-techniques-they-use\/\">Scammers<\/a> are aware whenever something trends or becomes more popular because they want to target as many victims as they can to steal their funds and drain their bank accounts.
