Want a Healthier Sex Life? Listen to these Porn Stars

When it comes to keeping things fun, interesting, fresh, and healthy in the bedroom, who knows better than porn stars?

If you answered no one, congratulations, take the rest of the day off, and enjoy your prize...

The good folks over at The Huffington Post (link below) have spoken to some of the biggest names in the industry, and compiled some helpful hints. Here are a few highlights...

Do you have specific wants and desires? You just need to ask...

According to porn star and sex blogger Stoya

I'll get questions like: 'My boyfriend never eats me out and I'd like to get him to eat me out, but how do I get him to do it without having to talk about it?' And it's like, maybe if he's really into raspberry jam, you can leave a trail from the bed up your legs. But that's a whole lot of work instead of just, 'Hey dude, how about cunnilingus?'

Get up off your ass and get healthy

Dylan Ryan, self described "feminist porn star," says that mental health and physical health go hand in hand

Ryan emphasized that physical health can affect mental health. "Stay healthy with the way you eat, getting exercise, physical fitness, yoga time with friends," she said. She also advised getting tested regularly for sexually transmitted diseases. "As a performer, I am tested regularly even when I'm not working regularly," Ryan said. "I still like to know my status and be in clear communication with my partner. Sometimes it can be scary, but it's better to have information."

Don't neglect your need for "Me Time"

Don't neglect yourself, says actor and director Courtney Trouble

"I start to get burned out on hookup culture and poly dating when I don't have my own 'me time'..."Even in my marriage, I make time for myself -- no dates, no hubby, just me," she said.

Don't be afraid of your desires, but not at the expense of your sense of self

Artist and former porn star Satine Phoenix says that you should always remain true to yourself

"I was a swinger and I explored and I tasted all the flavors and it was crazy and amazing, but then I met this guy and I didn't want anyone else." Now, she said, she wishes that during her 20s, she'd paid more attention to herself and less to her peers.

So take it from these porn stars, there really is no such thing as "normal," so don't be afraid to live it up.
