A woman who teaches machine learning and calculus on PornHub has revealed why.
When you click on the X-rated site, you might be expecting something a little raunchier to catch your eye.
However, there’s a select group out there who have been using PornHub to conduct a little extracurricular learning, and it’s not how to improve your sex moves.

That’s because Zara Dar, an engineer-turned-OnlyFans-model, is combining sexy with brainy for her content.
Sometimes, people want their brain stimulated instead of their…brain stimulated, and that calls for a hardcore round of math.
The PhD dropout now has a YouTube and Pornhub content catalogue which shows her teaching different math concepts to novices.

For example, if you wanted to see a woman in a low-cut shirt explain to you what a neural network is, or the origin of pi, then Dar is your lady.
Sharing on LinkedIn, she said that the videos she posts generate different amounts of income, even though it’s the same clip.
That’s because it’s all about the platform.
So, if she uploaded the same video to YouTube and Pornhub, she’d likely see $340 per million views on YouTube, and $1,000 per million views on Pornhub.

So, Pornhub seems like the obvious choice to conduct her learning clips.
After posting an explanation to LinkedIn, Dar's account was banned.
She told 404 Media: "I was engaging professional, but LinkedIn's strict handling of this situation feels counterproductive to its purpose."

While she sees more views on YouTube, as clearly, the target audience on Pornhub is after something a little less PG, there is actually quite a bit of this type of content on the porn site.
Well, maybe not math, but there is a lot of non-pornographic things on Pornhub, such as Minecraft let's play videos.
As for why Dar continues to use Pornhub, she told 404 Media that she doesn’t quite know why they do well, ‘but it could be because my SFW videos stand out against the typical NSFW content on the platform’.
She said: “That contrast might make them more intriguing or refreshing to viewers. But that's just my speculation.”
On YouTube, she describes herself as a ‘Texas-born and bred engineer who developed a passion for computer science and creating content!’.

As for the people who watch her, they’re here for both the learning and the visuals.
One person wrote: “She helped me realise that i can focus on two things at once.”
Another said: “I was watching this. My wife asked me what are you watching? I raised the volume.”
Someone else commented: “I don't know why but my interest in maths increased suddenly.”
Another viewer shared: “If that’s how I would’ve been taught mathematics back in the day, I would’ve put Einstein to shame.”
So, she’s teaching and appeasing at the same time.
