Sexologist Alexa Andre (@sexwithalexa) is back in bed for another season and she’s kicking things off with adult film icon Small Hands (Aaron Thompson). From monogamy and marriage to aftercare and emotional intimacy on set, Aaron shares what it's really like to live a life of performance — and what happens when the cameras stop rolling. We get deep on female pleasure, working with Owen Gray, porn myths, and how to separate real connection from performative sex. If you’ve ever wondered what love looks like when sex is your job, this one’s for you.
In this episode, we talk about:
how porn shaped Aaron’s real-life relationships
what it's like to be monogamous while working in the adult industry
the emotional aftermath of performing sex on camera
whether it's really possible to have sex without catching feelings
how to separate intimacy from performance
Aaron’s recent divorce and what it taught him
his take on aftercare and why it's necessary in porn
how he advocates for female pleasure in a male-driven industry
what it's like working with Owen Gray and the hype around him
his thoughts on what sex acts are overrated vs underrated
what porn gets right and wrong about real desire
