This web site contains sexually explicit material:I’ve always separated sex from love or relationships.
I’ve never been jealous of sex. I’ve always believed that with the person I love, I can share sexual fantasies and experiences. If I love someone, I want the best for him: I want him to do everything he desires, as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone or himself or take anything away from me. Seeing him happy and sexually fulfilled makes me happy — and turns me on even more.
If my partner prefers someone else just because of sex, the relationship wouldn’t have lasted anyway. I’d rather take that risk than live with the idea of sex as something scarce, or miss out on knowing my partner’s deeper desires. Other people don’t threaten me, because I know great sex or attraction can’t replace an entire relationship.
Some people say promiscuity is for the young, and then you settle down and stop exploring. To me, that’s like never going to restaurants again and only eating what your spouse cooks. I love my husband’s cooking — he’s really good — but haute cuisine is one of my passions, and there are dishes I’ll never have in my kitchen. Just like he can’t recreate Alchemist’s tasting menu, he can’t replicate the experience of a gangbang. At the same time, no restaurant can give me the warmth I feel waking up to find my hubby has made breakfast. Love and lust are simply different experiences, and I can’t find a rational reason to pick one when I can have both.
I’d never give up love for lust, but I also wouldn’t share my life with someone who can’t tell the difference. You can’t truly know that difference without experience, and I’m not interested in someone who confuses love with ownership or jealousy. I can’t love someone who passively accepts what we were taught about love and sex or carries social sexual shame without question. I need someone who shares my values — free in mind and body (which are really the same thing).
My only concerns have always been unwanted pregnancies and STDs. People think open relationships mean chaos, but it’s the opposite. It’s about being so blunt and honest with each other that nothing feels like a threat. If I mostly make love with my husband instead of sleeping with other people, it’s because I want to — not because I’m forced into monogamy. The relationship comes first, naturally. I don’t have to choose between love and my sexual freedom.
People sometimes ask if I’m poly. I’m not. One person to love is already a lot of work. I don’t feel incomplete in my relationship — I just enjoy sexual abundance. I eat great food at home, but sometimes I like to go to restaurants. I also can’t imagine loving two people at once. In theory, I have no issue with it; in practice, it seems exhausting. And I’ve never met anyone who stimulates my mind the way my husband does. I also feel many poly people don’t separate sex from relationships, so polyamory is the only way they can explore both.
Long story short: I’ve been in an open relationship for 17 years, married for the last five.
In my latest blog post, I talked mostly about the disadvantages of doing porn. And yes, they are real — stigma, judgment, misrepresentation, and more. But when I started in 2011, I already knew all of them.
So why do I do it anyway?
As a woman, I’m legally allowed to do anything a man does. But the moment I claim that freedom, especially with my body or sexuality, I risk being criticized, bullied, or ostracized. Doing porn is my way of affirming my freedom to live as I please. It’s an act of autonomy and defiance in a world still soaked in double standards.
Porn allows me to explore fantasies — both mine and others’ — that I could never experience in real life. Last year, I got “raped” by a tree in a film and won an AVN award for it. That was never a personal fantasy, but when the director offered it, I thought: Why not? It turned out to be one of the most creatively exciting shoots I’ve done. Through porn, I get to expand my senses, play with imagination, and discover new parts of myself and others.
I love creating content. For me, porn is not just about sexual satisfaction — it’s performance, expression, and transformation. I learned how to walk, talk, act, do my makeup, and costume myself. Living in a fantasy is a full sensory art form, and I love the creative freedom it gives me.
Porn gives me a way to explore intense fantasies in a safe, controlled environment. On set, I don’t risk untreatable STDs or dealing with someone stalking me afterward. My safety is literally in the producer’s best interest — because I’m not just a person on set, I’m their investment. That creates boundaries and protocols that dating or private sex doesn’t offer.
Not everyone could handle the judgment or social isolation that sometimes comes with doing porn. But I know myself. I have the kind of personality that can fight stigma without falling apart. This battle isn’t easy, but with strong ideas and heart, I can keep going. I was made for this.
There’s no logical reason not to do porn — for the people it suits. It’s not for everyone, of course, just like being a doctor or fashion designer isn’t for everyone. But stigma? That’s not a good enough reason to avoid something. It would be like quitting school because a bully won’t stop picking on you. You don’t let the bully win.
Sex isn’t just a physical interest for me — it’s intellectual. I’ve always been fascinated by it. And yet, in universities and “serious” discourse, sex remains taboo. Ironically, we study animal sexuality more openly than our own. No book could teach me what I’ve learned from being a porn performer. It’s a form of embodied knowledge, and it matters.
Porn lets me rethink society’s values — and choose my own. Since I’ve already been labeled a “whore” by society, I have nothing to lose and total freedom of speech. I don’t have to tiptoe around brands or employers. Many of my colleagues are like that too — clear as water, spontaneous, real. Maybe not perfect, but rarely fake.
There are hundreds of websites you could potentially work for, or you could choose to be independent on platforms like OnlyFans, or even launch your own website, if you have money to invest. But before you go any further, ask yourself some serious questions.
Why Do You Want to Do It?
Many people think porn is easy money. It’s not. Sure, everyone likes sex — but that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to perform and cum on command, in front of cameras, under bright lights, and possibly with people you’re not even attracted to. Some days can be long, uncomfortable, and difficult. You might think you can just “push through” even if you don’t enjoy it, but that mindset can seriously mess with your mental health.
Imagine being forced to eat something you find disgusting — not once, but several times a week. Not something you might grow to like, but something that feels wrong. Over time, that could lead to a disordered relationship with food. The same kind of emotional detachment can happen in porn if your heart isn’t truly in it.
To perform consistently, you need to detach sex from its personal, social, and biological meanings. Even very promiscuous people often have sex for more than just physical reasons — ego, emotional connection, and validation. A useful book on this is Evolutionary Psychology by David Buss.
You can be happy as a porn performer only if you enjoy sex in its purest form: for the sake of cumming and exploring sexuality.
Judgment Is Guaranteed, Success Is Not
Success in porn is never guaranteed — but judgment is. While the industry is becoming more accepted in some parts of the world, stigma still runs deep. And it doesn’t only affect performers. Editors, photographers, and even lawyers who work in adult entertainment often face discrimination. Some struggle to get their kids into private schools. Others have had their bank accounts shut down. Some are disowned by their families.
You may eventually want to leave the industry, but even if you do, society might not let you leave it behind. That label tends to stick, especially if you're a woman.
Do you have the guts to feel alone against the world?
Censorship Is Real
Advertising your work won’t be like promoting any other job. Porn is banned or heavily restricted in many countries. On social media, you risk being banned or demonetized just for talking about it. The only places where you can promote yourself freely are often on free porn platforms — which themselves are under constant legal and political attack. Just look at the struggles Pornhub has faced since 2020.
Do You Want to Be a Public Figure?
Being a public figure has its perks — and its price. Every day, my colleagues and I receive hate messages. Our content gets stolen and used in romance scams. People recognize us on the street — even when we feel like shit. The media can twist your words for clicks. Your family might get harassed.
You won’t always have the legal or financial resources to push back. Fame can be empowering, but it can also be exhausting.
STDs and Your Health
If you get tested at professional performer labs like Talent Testing or Cutting Edge Testing, you’ll have access to some of the most advanced diagnostics in the world — often at lower prices (€100 in Europe, $250 in the U.S.).
Still, no testing system is perfect. Even if you follow every window period and check every test (they usually include QR codes for verification), there’s always a risk. Most STDs can be cured with antibiotics, and there haven’t been any on-set HIV or hepatitis cases in decades, thanks to strict testing protocols. But some infections — like HPV, herpes, and yeast — aren’t included in regular screening. Knowing how STDs spread is essential to protecting yourself.
And it’s not just about STDs. You’ll likely be exposed to other illnesses too — colds, skin infections, and other minor but annoying health issues. Personally, traveling and working internationally has made me feel stronger over time. But staying healthy requires real effort: working out, sleeping properly, taking supplements when needed, and getting vaccinated.
What Do You Have to Give?
Some people think that if they get naked to make money, they deserve success. That’s not how the entertainment industry works. It’s not about what you want to get — it’s about what you have to give.
What makes you unique? What are you offering viewers that they can’t get from someone else?
Unfortunately, the media has portrayed us as people who gave up our privacy for easy money. That narrative erases the hard work, creativity, and sacrifice this job demands.
Go Big or Go Home
This isn’t a job you can do halfway. If you’re going to enter this industry, you need to commit. As I said before, once you do it once, people may label you for life. If you don't make it, what's your plan B?
