PornHub Announces That It'll Be Adding Closed Captioning To Their Videos

Mashable- Pornhub, the ever popular purveyor of adult videos, has announced it’s adding closed captioning to some of the site’s extensive library. An effort to improve the experience of users who are deaf or hard of hearing. Corey Price, Pornhub’s VP, said in a press release, “Here at Pornhub, it’s important that we continue to service all of our users’ needs and make content accessible to every individual.” The new closed captioning feature has been rolled out on over 1,000 of the site’s most popular videos within the straight, popular with women, gay, bi, and transsexual categories. It’s also a complement to the already existing Descriptive Video channel that Pornhub launched in 2016. As for how it works, well you can check some of the videos out yourself — it’s Pornhub so this should go without saying that the link is VERY NSFW — right here. This was done as part of Pornhub’s philanthropic wing, Pornhub Cares, because it’s 2018, and everyone has a part of their business that goes to a good cause and manages to put the Trump White House to shame.

Bout damn time! Bout damn time I say! No I’m not deaf but I need closed captioning on everything I watch. I just do. It first started when I got hooked on Peaky Blinders. It was Tom Hardy’s character Alfie who did it. I couldn’t understand a single letter he was saying. Not a single letter. Great character but the dude was spewing pure gibberish. So I switched on the closed captioning and never looked back. I started using it for everything. Movies, shows, comedies, dramas, doesn’t matter. Everything. I’m addicted to it. It helps me pay attention. I’m a millennial so I’m always tempted to stare at my phone for 99% of my life but with closed captioning I have to focus on the words on the screen. You should give it a shot. It really helps.

And now I’ll have it when I watch porn. I rarely have trouble focusing when I watch porn but it’ll be nice to get the exact dialogue. I need a story when I watch porn. The sucking and fucking can’t start right away. I need context as to why they’re sucking and fucking. She can’t pay rent? That’s a shame. So shoutout to PornHub for adding CC to some of their videos. It’ll do wonders for me. Oh and it’s good for the deaf people out there I guess. But mostly for me and my obsession with closed captioning.

PS- The only thing I don’t use closed captioning for is stand up specials. I tried it for awhile but the CC gets out in front of the comedian and ruins the punch line . I almost need an option where I can lag the closed captioning. Nothing worse than when it gets too far out in front and it ruins the surprise.
