A strong connection between partners in the world of intimacy begins with understanding what will ignite passion and what will extinguish it.
With vast experience in the industry, world famous star Riley Reid has often shared her thoughts on what helps and hinders intimate moments.
Born Ashley Matthews, Reid has had a successful career in adult entertainment, and is said to have accrued $19 million (£15 million) and numerous awards.
Through her candid discussions in her various platforms, audiences have been able to understand attraction, connection and that keeping the intimacy is a challenge.
On the Pillow Talk podcast, Reid stressed the significance of foreplay and a slow way to intimacy.
“I personally like to start with clothes on. I don’t think that you should come in and start butt a** naked—like, drop your towel bulls***,” she stated.
“There’s no f***ing foreplay, or anything to play with,” she added, underscoring the importance of anticipation in physical relationships.
While the physical aspect is part of it, Reid has been quite open in the emotional and psychological side of the game.
She even admitted in a now deleted 2020 video that adult films can cause relationships to suffer, making dating and intimacy hard.

“A lot of times when people ask me if they should do p*rn, I tell them no,” Reid said.
“I tell them that it makes life really hard, it makes dating really hard, it makes your family life really hard, it makes intimacy hard.”
However, her candid admission also reveals the personal price many adult performers do pay, despite achieving a certain wealth.
In her personal relationships, Reid has also opened up about how she has been stigmatized by partners because of her profession.
Once, she confided how she got rejected by an ex boyfriend who refused to kiss her after work, which made her feel so hurt and ashamed.

“He made me feel like maybe I should quit [p*rn] and stuff,” she admitted, explaining how the judgment of others affected her self-worth.
Through these experiences, we see what biases are present in society that industry professionals are often faced with, often in personal and romantic relationships.
Despite all the obstacles that Reid discusses, he was kind enough to share some great advice on how to improve the experience, all revolving around pacing and anticipation.
To build excitement, she encourages partners to “avoid any of the hyper stimulating areas until almost the last possible moment.”
Reid says that this method can facilitate a much more intense and satisfying connection between partners.

But one thing Reid warns about is an annoying behavior she’s seen from partners during intimacy.
On the Stiff Socks podcast she appeared to say that the biggest turn off in the bedroom is neglecting oral hygiene.
“I hate it when a guy doesn’t brush his teeth, he wants to kiss and he’s got some rank a** breath,” Reid confessed.
“That s**t kills the mood,” she added, stressing how crucial fresh breath is in maintaining attraction and intimacy.
Also, she mentioned that this is the reason she does not like morning s3x because it is “disgusting” smelling stale breath.

The advice is simple and potent if you are going to get close with someone, a quick hop to the bathroom before hugging someone will make a big difference.
Reid’s revelation brings to light even the tiniest personal habits that one overlooks which can offer a novel viewpoint from the perspective of attraction.
