The phenomenon of celebrities writing their own cookbooks or really advice books of any kind baffles me. If I want to roast a good chicken, I'm probably going to ask someone who specialises in roasting chickens, not someone who specialises in, say, being a weather man. Though if said weather man wrote a book on pointing at screens and engaging in banter with the sport guy, I would possibly buy that. So if I want advice about sex, I could do a lot worse than someone who has done sexy-things for a living for most of her adult life. Stoya started working for Refinery in January last year and has written a series of thoughtful, funny and genuinely helpful sex advice columns for them. She's covered topics as explicit as a lack of vaginal lubrication through to the changes relationships go through when a couple moves in together. Though she is cautious about how much she reveals about her own relationships, it is common knowledge (amongst those of us inclined to pay too much attention to these things) that she has been dating fellow porn star James Deen since 2013. The ability to not only manage the physical intricacies of sex but also the emotional intricacies of dating someone outside of the realm of strict monogamy informs her advice and makes hers a perspective worth your time.
Brydie is an Australian writer and performer living in London and she complains exactly the same amount about the weather as every other Australian living in London. Yes, that is her natural lip colour, no, she will not be taking any further questions at this time.
