The anal region is an area very innervated and who says nerve endings also says increased sensitivity! Having anal sex is a matter of personal preference.
That said, men or women may prefer stroking with the fingers or the tongue (a practice called rimming), while others will opt for penetration (finger, penis or sex toy specially designed for anal penetration). Adept or tempted by the experience, here are 8 things to know in order to fully benefit from it.

1. Anal sex: Become aware of your body
First of all, take the time to “become aware” of your sphincters and your pubo-coccygeal muscles. This exercise will increase your sensitivity and most importantly, help you get to know your body better. Your muscles will be more flexible and receptive to sensations. The idea is to contract the muscles around the anus. Contract and release. Hold for about 10 seconds, then relax your muscles. Do not hold your breath and relax your stomach as well as your buttocks.
2. Anal sex: Relax!
Anal penetration can be more or less unpleasant or painful the first few times, or the first few minutes. The best way to relax is to prepare the area first with your fingers or tongue. Penetration is often less painful than that of the penis or a sextoy. It can be a first step in building up excitement and allowing the body (and mind!) To relax.
3. Anal sex: Lubricate, lubricate, lubricate!
The anus does not lubricate itself (or very little) naturally. In order to ensure a smooth and comfortable intromission and to avoid anal lesions which take a long time to heal (and which become gateways for bacteria and sexually transmitted infections!), It is necessary to use a voucher lubricant water-based, silicone or even a anal fat. Petroleum jellies like Vaseline are to be avoided absolutely! They destroy the latex of condoms, are not soluble in water. They could therefore accumulate, prevent the tissues from breathing and cause infections.
4. Anal sex: Go easy
The speed and vigor of anal penetration often differs from the recommended rhythm for vaginal penetration. Anal penetration must take place slowly, in order to allow the muscles, these little « rings » to relax and relax. As for the depth of penetration, the choice is up to everyone. Be aware, however, that the average length of the rectum is smaller than the average length of the penis!
5. Anal sex: Choosing the right sextoy
The anal sphincter tends to « absorb » what is inserted into the anus so beware of what you use as objects! Opt for those designed for this purpose which have a flared tip and a handle so that the object cannot fully enter. Anal penetration can be done with all kinds of objects: dildos, plugs, anus pickets, anal beads,… Do not hesitate to vary the shapes for more sensations and pleasure… shared! And if it does not fit, it means that it does not fit, do not force, you risk injuring yourself!
6. Anal sex: Vary the positions
Anal penetration should not categorically be carried out in the doggy style position (where one partner comes from behind, while the other penetrates him from behind). The positions can vary according to the wishes of each one; on your side, on your back with your legs raised, have fun experimenting and finding the positions that give you the most comfort.
7. Anal sex: Beware of infections
Anal intercourse presents three times more risk of transmission of infections than vaginal intercourse, this area being in contact with bacteria in the rectum. To avoid unpleasant surprises, do not pass never directly from vaginal penetration, to anal penetration and the reverse is even more dangerous! You could develop vaginal and urinary tract infections.
8. Anal sex: What about him?
You should know that in men the anal area has almost the same nerve sensitivity as the penis. So many men like anal touch, whether they are homosexual or heterosexual. This requires success in letting go, because this part of the anatomy is very often associated with domination. Yet the male G-spot is located on the anterior wall of the rectum, which connects to the prostate.
