Sex experts have shared the real answers to the most googled questions about intimacy in 2024.
Whether you are hanging out with your pals at the pub or sitting across from your GP in their artificially lit office, people are generally too embarrassed to ask sexual questions out loud.
Instead, we often turn to Google with our most intimate queries – knowing that the trusty search engine won’t judge us.
Wondering if your sex drive is normal? Google it. Want to know what the speed bump position looks like? Google it. Questioning how many calories you burn while doing the deed? Google it. All of these made appearances on last year’s most Googled list.
But can you trust all the information you find online, especially when it comes to such a sensitive subject?
Here, Alice Child and Emily King, sexologists for sexual wellness platform SheSpot tell FEMAIL their expert advice on the most Googled sex queries of 2024. However, for any medical queries, it is recommended to seek advice from your GP.
This year, Google’s most searched sex query – according to Cosmopolitan UK – was: ‘What is autosexual?’
Kourtney Kardashian came out as autosexual in 2020 when she published a blog post about it on her website Poosh.

To be autosexual means to be attracted to yourself more than others.
‘Somebody who identifies as autosexual prefers sexual arousal on their own,’ Alice said.
‘For example through self pleasure, fantasies, masturbation and erotic thoughts and dreams.’
Some autosexuals may be turned on exclusively by themselves, while some can get into the mood on by themselves and with others.
Never heard of autosexuality before? You are not alone.
Alice, a certified sex expert from the Institute of Somatic Sexology, clarified that it is ‘not a term or sexual orientation that many people would have heard before.’
Hence why we are all frantically Googling it.
Next up, people were keen to know whether it is ‘normal to bleed after sex’.
