EDGE Interview: How JustFor.Fans Model Alexxx Gay is Coaching Adult Studios on Intimacy

In this modern age of self care and, as one meme called it, "mindfulness," Gay has his work cut out for him. On one hand, he works with people who do one thing, and do it confidently. On the other, they are afraid to explore their inner feelings.

That's where the coaching comes in. Gay assists them in communicating their boundaries, expressing their turn-ons, and how to build trust with their costars. His approach is to help foster an environment where they feel safe in bringing their authentic self to the scene. It might seem superfluous, but it works, and major studios are starting to see its worth.

"When studios prioritize having someone like me on set, they are caring for their models' mental and physical well-being. And the bonus is that the scenes are much hotter because there's so much more genuine erotic energy between the stars," he says.

Chemistry sells. Nothing can take you out of a fantasy more than a lack of intimacy. That includes the extreme too. Depending on what fantasy you're in the mood for, the connection between the model and their partner (or the object) is important. Even a solo scene has to be convincing. Loving yourself can be a literal term in the adult industry.

But what about more extreme sexual activities? With his newfound freedom from shame, Gay is more sexually curious after all. He says he's into watersports, sounding, and fisting. We won't go into detail on any of those things, but if you're curious, check out Gay's JustFor.Fans account.

Gay is pretty intrepid and says there are a lot of things he's willing to try as long as it's between consenting adults. But he does have his limits.

"My hard boundaries are nothing that would cause permanent bodily injury, and no faking it," he says. "I spent too much of my life trying to contort myself to what I thought others wanted me to be. I want to bring my authentic self into everything I do now."

Though self-expression is one of the core ideals of adult content makers, there is something that still needs work. When asked if the industry is as diverse as he would like it, his answer was a resounding, "Fuck no!" But he admits there has been progress. "JustFor.Fans has made entering the adult industry more accessible because models no longer need to go through a studio. But there's still work to be done, and there always will be. I'd love to see even more diversity in terms of race, body types, gender identities, and sexual expressions. There's so much beauty in our differences, and in case you haven't noticed, I'm a slut for authenticity."

Speaking of which, he is starting a podcast this summer in which he will interview adult movie stars. They will gab about their turn-ons, insecurities, and, of course, sex. He will also use his coaching skills as an entertaining way to keep the conversation flowing.

Until then, Gay is concentrating on his JustFor.Fans page. There is a lot to see there, and he says it's more than just sex.

"My JFF page isn't just about the visuals; it's about the feelings," he says. "I focus on creating content that feels raw, real, and intimate – like you're a fly on the wall witnessing something deeply personal. It's not about an act; it's about the connection."
