Sex psychologist explains why OnlyNans 'granny' sex trend is dominating porn charts
A sex psychologist has revealed why searches for 'granny' are dominating the porn charts.
Whenever PornHub drops their annual Year in Review, we get a glimpse at what the nation are looking up when they get a bit of alone time.
The world's biggest porn site - which is now age-restricted via law - racks up billions of searches a year, with the UK being the country with the fifth most visitors behind Mexico in 2024.
Our most common searches happened to be 'MILF' and 'lesbian', while 'hentai' took the crown for the most-searched term world-wide.

However, it appears people are very much into their 'grannies'.
In 2023, searches for ‘granny’ went up worldwide by 132 percent, making it the second most popular category on PornHub among men.
Similar terms also include ‘granny cougar’, ‘bbw granny’ and ‘sexy granny’, in case you were wondering.
Again, for your curiosity, last year the most searched term was MILF.
Us Brits, not including myself, are also 47 percent more likely to watch it compared to other countries.
In fact, the 'mature' category grew worldwide by 34 percent in 2024.
Explaining why, sex and relationships psychologist Natalie Cawley previously told the outlet that 'the desire for those in power is deeply rooted in our psyche'.
"In evolutionary terms someone in a position of power is seen as someone with resources and abilities that will create viable offspring and therefore we are driven to form an attachment with them," Cawley said.
"The attraction to power will also be based on an individual’s early attachment relationships.
"If one had a parent (particularly the opposite sex parent) who held a position of power in a nurturing, containing and protective manner the may be more likely to be attracted to such qualities in a mate."
Well, one beneficiary of the trend is Juliet, a 48-year-old OnlyFans gran from Scotland.
The sex worker, from Glasgow, told The Scottish Sun: "I feel the sexiest I’ve ever felt in my life since I started doing OnlyFans just over a year ago.
"The majority of my clientele are young guys in their twenties.
"They just love the Mrs. Robinson idea of a very experienced sexual woman that knows how to pleasure a man to the maximum.
"I do look after my grandkids so I joke that I go from granny to pornstar. My OnlyFans money paid for Christmas last year.
"I can provide for my family as my partner was out of work when I made the decision to do it
"I also help my daughter out with babysitting when she needs it when she is on placement."
