For many young adults, porn is more of a sex education than anything they learn in school. In fact, less than half of all U.S. states mandate sex ed, so it's not surprising that teens turn to porn to learn about sex.

The problem is that mainstream porn isn't proper sex education — it's a fantasy factory with the sole purpose of profit. One site that promotes this fantasy factory, Pornhub, is attempting to bridge the gap between porn and actual sex ed with their first-ever sex education video series. The series launched today via Pornhub's Sexual Wellness Center, where the tube site provides articles about sexual health, relationships, and of course sex itself.

All of the series's first 11 videos are narrated by licensed sex therapists and PhDs; they also show real anatomy and human examples to provide accuracy and dispel sex myths, according to Pornhub's press release. The videos cover a range of topics, from communication to preparing for sex to STIs. There's even a video about having safe sex amidst the coronavirus pandemic.

One expert narrator is Dr. Laurie Betito, director of the Pornhub Sexual Wellness Center. "I am thrilled to present to our followers a brand new initiative at the Pornhub Sexual Wellness Center," said Betito in the press release. "As promised, we are tapping into different platforms and mediums to extend the sexual health information we bring to those who seek our resources."

The wellness center's mission, according to Betito, is to provide quality information in both an educational and entertaining way. "Many people have questions on how to have sex, so we hope that our video series will provide the visuals that go with those questions," she said. While the series began with 11 videos, Betito promised the wellness center will be adding more on a regular basis.

Our current sex education system needs a lot of work, and these videos won't solve it. At least, however, Pornhub is providing this resource so young adults can learn that "real" sex is much different than the hardcore videos on their site.
