Julia Fox tells Emily Ratajkowski why she doesn’t like sex
Julia Fox admitted that she doesn’t like sex and is “desensitized” to it.
The 32-year-old actress has opened up about how her career as a dominatrix has made her look at sex differently.
“Sex for me always has been one-sided but I think all women can say that. So it’s, like, if I don’t really need anything from you, I don’t see the point,” Fox told Emily Ratajkowski on the “High Low with EmRata” podcast. “I’m really desensitized to sex, too. Like, it just — it’s not thrilling for me.”
Ratajkowski responded that she “likes sex,” and Fox shared: “See, I don’t. I can go without. I’m, like, so good.”
“I think when you’re sexualized so young, people think you’re really sexual,” Ratajkowski said to Fox. “And that’s always been a thing [since] you were a dominatrix and everything.”
The “Uncut Gems” star has previously shared that started working in a “basement dungeon” at just 18 years old, getting paid to fulfill men’s fantasies. She told Paper magazine in September that she was asked to portray various roles such as an “evil teacher, domineering mother, non or nurse.”
The actress and model revealed she never had intercourse with her clients, but that the relationships were “transactional.”
“I pretty much, in my teens, learned that I was a commodity and that I can get money or resources from men, so then it just became this game of, OK, how do I become more desirable so I could get more money and I could be, like, that bitch,” Fox said. “It’s still them giving me the power. It’s not my own power, you know? So it’s a humiliating kind of position to be in or humbling, rather.”
While Fox said she’s OK, there’s been damage done from her past experiences.
“Especially when you’re not in it anymore and you look back and you’re, like, ‘Oh, my God, I can’t believe … ’” she added.
She explained that she would “disassociate” in order to get through some interactions.
“It’s crazy but it’s a survival mechanism,” she said. “We do it to live, which is insane.”
In fact, Fox revealed what she sees as a better option than sex, saying that she would prefer to “take ayahuasca and, like, see God, you know?” she offered. “Like, that to me is thrilling. To me, that’s cool.”
Fox was previously married to Peter Artemiev, with whom she has a 1-year-old son, and she recently got out of a short relationship with Kanye West, who she said impacted her career “not in a good way.”
