“Thanks to our modern technology, it provides a creative way to fill the void caused by physical distancing on social activities, leisure, and sex. But I think the recent surge in technology-based social approach is just a temporary coping strategy, once this pandemic ends, we still hope the usage of this approach may decrease in favor of in-person, partnered interactions,” said John Martinuk, co-founder of KinkD.
The report also points out a rise in user engagement on the app in these cities, as users tend to spend a longer time than what they did before the pandemic.
It is worth noting that feelings of stress and loneliness elevated by this pandemic could be the trigger for trying new sexual activities. Coincidentally, by the time of this writing, one of the users on KinkD has just updated his self-summary, saying, “I’m here to unleash the dark side before I’m driven crazy by the damn virus.”
