A former Israeli Defense Force (IDF) soldier has shared her story about leaving her ultra-strict religious life in Israel to pursue a porn career in America.
Mia Ventura, 25, grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family in Jerusalem and was not allowed to wear revealing outfits or even talk to men.
She now lives what she calls “the American dream” of making money with OnlyFans in Los Angeles, but as a child growing up in Israel, Mia went to an all-girls boarding school, prayed three times a day and celebrated Shabbat.
When she turned 18, Mia enlisted in the IDF, where she was trained to use a pistol and learned various survival techniques.
“I wouldn’t call it a positive experience for young people because war is not fun,” she told Holly Randall’s Unfiltered podcast.

When she turned 18, Mia enlisted in the Israeli army, where she was trained to use a pistol and learned various survival techniques.
“It is very traumatizing to live in a country where there is constant war,” she added, explaining that at one point she was tasked with monitoring the Gaza Strip border.
After completing her mandatory military service, Mia sought out the bright lights of Los Angeles, where she found work as a flight attendant.
But it didn’t take long for Mia to start exploring her sexuality when she arrived in the US.
“I wanted to try things I’d never tried before,” she said. ‘It’s like going to the mall and having endless options for shopping – that’s how I felt when I moved here.
‘Everyone is available [to be] be sexually involved with me if they like me. That is not the case in Jerusalem.’
Mia soon discovered that she was bisexual, and she and her friend, fellow porn star Nick Strokes, started inviting women into their bedroom for threesomes.
Eventually, she started meeting other women for sex without Nick – who she says is completely supportive of her hookups.

Mia says she is now ‘proud’ of her finances and enjoys working in the sex industry, where women far outnumber men
She also has a small army of eager “slaves” on hand to fulfill her every financial wish, from shopping and beauty appointments to flights and food.
“Nick was very open-minded about it, he said, ‘Do what you want,’ which was very surprising because where I come from, men have control over their women,” she said.
‘We have a super open relationship, we are not monogamous. And it’s just so healthy in my opinion.”
Mia first joined OnlyFans during the COVID pandemic and initially did nothing but post suggestive photos of her feet.
However, her content quickly progressed and now the brunette beauty has done everything from golden showers and group sex to working as a dominatrix.

‘At first I felt a little bad, like, “I don’t want to take his paycheck!” But then I started to realize that if I don’t take his money, he’s going to give it to someone else because that’s his fetish, she explained.
Mia said one of her slaves was a “super religious” Hasidic Jew who spent $8,000 to meet her in person and “sniff” her feet.
“He was a virgin, 42 years old and had never had sex,” Mia said.
“He loved my story and thought I was so brave and just wanted to see me.”
Since then, Mia has graced the cover of Playboy and Penthouse, all in racy images for the magazines.

‘Moving to the US was the best decision I ever made in my life. I love this country, I love living here, I love the freedom.
“I love the American dream and I love the opportunity to make money.”
