This section of the workshop isn't really just for straight guys. It's for anyone who is interested in trying anal sex. Here are the five things you need to have great anal fun.
Desire: Anal sex is really fun! But you have to want to do it. If you don?t, you won?t be able to relax and enjoy it. Being honest with yourself about what you?re into is important. Remember, too, that you can be a little nervous and still want to do something, just check in to see what you're really thinking. Desire also means being aroused already before you start any intense anal play ? just sticking a finger in right at the beginning may not feel as good as it will after some wonderful foreplay first. This holds true for a lot of things, not just anal play.
Trust: If you?re with someone else, you need to feel that you can trust that person to respect your needs and desires. Trying something new can be a little scary and having someone you trust will help.
Communication: Most of us think about communication as being with other people. This absolutely encompasses that. Saying ?faster, slower, I need more Lube? etc is really important in anal play. However, you also need to listen to your ass. It will tell you what it feels ready for ? so make sure you communicate with it too.
Relaxation: This can mean a lot of different things including the environment and cleanliness. We hold a lot of tension in our ass and hip area and it can sometimes be difficult to let that go but hopping in a bath or having a nice massage can be a great way to start to relax the body. Building up desire with foreplay also helps, as does using a
vibrator or
vibrating butt plug around the anus.
Lube: The ass doesn?t self lubricate so having
lubrication around is an absolute must. I recommend a thick, gel-like lube like
Maximus: it stays put and provides a lovely cushiony layer that really wines and dines your ass in the way that it likes. You could also try a silicone lube that won?t evaporate like
Eros. This lube you can?t use with silicone toys, however.With these five things in place, you can't go too wrong with any amount of anal play you're doing. Would you add anything to this list?
