The Most Googled Sex Questions In 2023

The Most Googled Sex Questions In 2023
Dec 31 2023 Share

These were some of the most googled sex related questions during the year 2023. 

‘What is speed bump sex position?’

Going viral on TikTok, this is reportedly a variation on doggy style. Being touted as a Love Island favourite for one contestant, it involves having a person ‘led face down instead of on their knees, with a pillow underneath their hips to raise their pelvis’.

‘What does non-binary mean in a relationship?’

It is typically understood as a relationship that doesn’t abide by the typical gender binary. 

The third was ‘What is ethically non-monogamous?’, followed by ‘what does exclusive mean in a relationship?’

The former involves two people who identify as a couple but who are not committed to a traditional relationship (as per CNN). 

The latter simply means that both partners agree to focus on each other and not see other people. 

Other questions included:

‘Is it safe to have sex when pregnant?’ – Short answer, yes. Unless complications are pointed out by professionals.

‘What is sex positivity?’ – An open and tolerant attitude towards sex and sexuality. 

‘How many calories are burned during sex?’ – Some studies suggest 3 to 4 calories per minute. However, sex on average lasts 5 to 6 minutes, adding up to around 21 calories. 

‘How many dates before having sex?’ – Depends on the person’s goals and ideas around sex. Communication is key. 

Advice related to sex and sexuality should ALWAYS be vetted with professionals.

‘I still admire you 25 years later. I am still proud of you and I celebrate being together. I still feel lucky to have gotten to know you.’ 

‘When I see you sad, I feel my chest stiffen. When I see you smile, I leap with joy. Every hug is a gift, even if it is from afar. Keep loving and thank you for being yourself, Neil’, he concluded.

Dec 31 2023 Share

Maria La Barokka Muscat, a TVM News presenter and broadcaster, took to social media to share her last few thoughts for the year 2023.

‘If you don’t feel love for others in your heart and spent the year doing harm, I’d rather not hear a ‘happy new year’ from you, because falsity was never my friend.’

Maria explained that one day of the year means nothing if an entire year is spent doing harm to others. 

‘Honesty is beautiful. If you don’t have these sentiments in your heart, don’t send your wishes to anyone.’

‘I know this is a difficult post on my part, but it is truthful till the very end – and I believe that there are many who feel like me.’

What do you think of her message?
