Experimentation with butt plugs is something which both male and females can enjoy, regardless of sexuality. Most people enjoy anal play; this part of the body is, after all, incredibly sensitive, and the intimacy involved in these acts makes for a fantastic addition to your sex life. Whether you enjoy it with a partner or alone, this type of play, accompanied by the use of anal sex toys, can completely transform your appreciation of sexual pleasure.
One of the main concerns for people regarding anal play is that they suspect that it has the potential to be messy, and so consequently, they’re hesitant to explore this sensuous zone. If this is a concern which you share, then it’s worth knowing that there are ways to prevent possible accidents, and the principal method is the application of an anal douche about an hour beforehand. Douches are designed to rinse out the rectum, therefore helping to keep anal anxiety at bay.
If you are playing with a partner, then communication is a must. Discuss in advance just how far you’d like to go and never be afraid to ask for more lube! And of course, if you do experience any kind of discomfort, ask your lover to stop; or if you feel that things are getting a little too intense, ask them to take it slower. Unlike the vagina, the anus doesn’t produce any kind of natural lubricant, and so the skin here can easily tear; to prevent this, the use of a good quality anal lubricant before play begins is essential – thicker lubes are recommended for use with anal play; be sure to stick to those which are paraben and glycerin free.
When you begin using butt plugs, start with a small butt plug, and go slow! Your butt takes some time to get become acclimated to things and open up, so you have to take your time and relax your sphincter muscles, which can take a little practice. Remember that you have two sphincter muscles: one at your anal opening, and the other, which sits just inside. Once you get your anal toy inside, it is very common for people to feel the urge to visit the toilet – this is a natural reaction to something being inside you, and your inner sphincter not being relaxed as much as perhaps it could be. If this happens, you can remove the plug, use your fingers to gently massage the opening, and then re-insert the plug.
These toys are designed to plug your butt, and they are available in various designs, but most often they are either small and fat, or long and slender. The small, thicker plugs supply a feeling of fullness – and can also be used to put pressure on the prostate, if you’re a guy. These are superb for training, or wearing for longer periods of time for sex toys, ensuring that your sphincter muscles loosen up. Some people will wear their plugs while at work or going shopping, because they don’t interfere with movement.
The longer, slender plugs are preferable if you desire the sensation of thrusting, or riding, as they sit further inside your rectum. Once you can easily accommodate the smaller butt plugs, then you can work your way up, using differing sizes and shapes till you find the ideal plug for your needs. And of course, your familiarity with these devices makes anal sex a whole lot easier and stress-free too!
