Comment on Information based on lived experience is far less valued than a quick Google answer.

  When someone is teaching you to cook a roux by example, they will have you smell it as the cooking progresses. They’ll explain the “nutty” smell and how it evolves but you’ll never really recognize the right smell without engaging in the experience with someone guiding you through it. As for sex, it means different things to different people. Especially when considering what X person likes vs what Y person likes. Google wont tell you different things you should try or how to handle a partner into something that you may not be. You understand how to please people based on experience and communication with that person. Then going forward you have the experience and context to know what may feel interesting.

    Right, so you can’t explain it in words. You have to experience it yourself.

    But experiencing things yourself is not what we’re talking about; if you already have the experience, you don’t need to ask Google (or another person) to confirm it. What we’re talking about is, if you want to find about something you don’t already know about, should you go to Google or get an individual’s take on it, given that individual has experienced it themselves.
