“Hardcore Barbie” Sara St. Clair puts pen to paper in an insightful article for HotMovies.com. Sara takes her own experience, as well as the experiences of fellow performers to fans in “How Being In Porn Impacted Our Relationships.” Included in the article are Sydney Leathers, Aria Khaide, Linzee Ryder, Roxie Rae, and Riley Kay.

Sara tackles the stigma of sex work and its effect on both family and romantic relationships, relating her own experience of ‘coming out’ as a porn performer to significant other, and how a relationship with a performer is built with boundaries and trust. Her friends talk of their experiences, both good and bad, when the subject of romance comes up. Sara also helps break the myth of all performers come from bad homes, as she shows how supportive families do exist. And for those who may not have relationships with their families, such as Sara herself, the bond of sex work creates a family among performers.

“I wanted to use this opportunity to share with fans some very personal experiences that myself and fellow performers have off camera,” commented Sara. “I think it’s important for not only fans, but society as a whole to see how sex workers deal with the same issues that people outside the industry face – especially when it comes to relationships. I want to thank Sydney, Aria, Linzee, Roxie, and Riley for sharing this part of their lives with me and the readers.”
