Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

“Because adult entertainers navigate a more complex sexual and emotional landscape,” Buzzfeed thought they could offer a unique perspective on relationships.

So they sat Milcah Halili, James Deen, Paris Kennedy, Danny Wylde and Allie Haze in front of a camera, and asked them some important questions many of us have about keeping our partners happy.

These include 'What makes people compatible?', 'What's the key to a healthy relationship?', and 'How do you rejuvenate a relationship?'.

As expected, there were a few predictable responses, such as “maintenance”, “sexy lingerie” and “watch porn together”.

But there were also some perhaps surprisingly romantic comments, too.

“Being able to listen to each other,” 32-year-old Paris Kennedy, or 'Your Dad's Worst Nightmare' according to her Twitter bio, offers on compatibility.

“The willingness to adapt to each other,” Haze, 27, adds.

Danny Wylde, 29, who has appeared in more than 130 adult films, said that paying attention to each other was key.

Meanwhile James Deen, 28, who has been in the porn industry since he was just 18, said partners who “balance each other out” were more likely to last the distance.

“You definitely need to be confident in yourself before you drag other people along with you because you never want to drag anybody down,” Haze adds. “It's all about bringing people up!”
