Anal play is something that is becoming more and more popular thanks to sex education and its rising prevalence in pop culture. People are fascinated by anal play, and we’re all about it! This week’s featured sex position is perfect for exploring anal play as a beginner, though no matter what your experience level, it’s important to remember that anal play can look like anything you desire but should always feel good. Start slow, listen to your body, and don’t rush or push yourself. Stop if you feel any pain, and if you’re playing with a partner, always communicate with them to ensure everybody is comfortable and enjoying themselves.A great way to start out with anal play is by laying on your back rather than on all fours. This gives you more space to relax while a partner slowly penetrates you or you penetrate yourself, with a finger or an anal-safe toy. A high-quality, long-lasting lubricant is absolutely essential to keep the fun flowing smoothly since the anal passage is not self-lubricating. Silicone-based lubricants like the Pjur® Back Door Relaxing Silicone Anal Glide generally last longer than water-based ones and are great for butt play, though it’s important to remember that they’re not compatible with silicone sex toys. If you’re using a silicone anal toy with a silicone-based lubricant, cover the toy with a condom, or you can switch to a water-based lubricant instead. The Wicked® Jelle Thickened Water-Based Gel Lubricant has a thick gel-like texture that provides a cushioning effect for super-comfortable anal play with toys made from any material!
As always, in order for a toy to be considered anal-safe, it needs 👏 to 👏 have 👏 a 👏 flared 👏 base 👏
Butt plugs are always a satisfying option, and there are also sets like the Silicone Anal Curve Training Probe Kit that are great for building up to larger toys at your own pace. Dildos with flared bases like suction cups (and even realistic dildos with testicles) are also great options. Something slim and petite like the Malesation Andy Dildo is perfect for beginners, and the suction cup base means you can enjoy it in more positions against a flat surface of your choice!
