Speaking exclusively to Daily Star, Jessica said many people use porn to masturbate and some even watch it with their partners.

But she said it's essential to make sure what you're watching is ethical – and to know the difference between fantasy and reality.

This, for her, is the key to making the most of the sexy experience.

She said there are things people can do to make sure the content they're watching is ethical

Jessica said: "The first way to ethically consume porn is to first acknowledge that it’s purely fantasy.

"It’s a polished presentation of sex that often leaves out some really important things like boundary negotiations and communication about expectations.

"You’ll rarely see lube used, and the sex seems to go on for hours.

"It’s also important to consider how your porn is made – are the performers treated fairly? Are their experiences on set good?

"One of the easiest ways to find ethical content is by following your favourite performers on social media, and supporting their fan sites.

"At the start of the pandemic when many larger studios stopped shooting, performers pivoted to sites like OnlyFans and clips4 sale and became independent content producers.

"Also – unpopular opinion – porn is absolutely something you pay for.

"It takes money to create it, so please put some money back in the pockets of the hard working performers and crews."

As for indulging in a little solo play, Jessica said there are also so many things people can do to make masturbation even more exciting than it already is.

She said the key to success is setting the tone and creating a sexy, sensual atmosphere for yourself with dim lighting, candles and silky soft sheets.

Jessica also recommends making a playlist to get in the mood.

"You can listen to soft, romantic music, you can listen to harder, explicit music," she added.

"Add toys and enhancers. Grab the lube!

"Even for solo play and, especially with toys, lube will increase your pleasure by decreasing friction.

"It will change some of the sensations produced by your favourite toys.

"Add in some erotica. This can be porn or it can be still images or erotic literature. Stimulate your brain and your body will follow."
