Anal Sex - The Ultimate Guide
Anal sex
Anal sex and anal orgasms can open up a whole new way of experiencing pleasure and enrich both of your sex lives. All you need is to be curious and careful, give each other plenty of time to warm up, and let the body get used to the new sensation.
6 tips before you start
Are you curious about anal sex but don't know how to talk to your partner about it? The first step is to open a dialogue with your partner and explain why you want to try it. There are many different benefits of anal stimulation - for people with a penis, it can strengthen an erection and lead to more intense orgasms. For people with a vagina, the G-spot can be stimulated indirectly through anal stimulation.
So there are several benefits besides the fact that it is a little cheeky. Learn about anal sex together and what it can add to your sex life. Small steps are best - so start by slowly trying anal stimulation. For example, you can start by stimulating the anus with a finger, without inserting it into the anus. Suggest that you try it on each other and see if it feels good. If it feels pleasurable, you can move on to a small butt plug and then work your way up to larger toys or anal sex.
No one should persuade or force anyone else to have anal sex - it is important that you feel safe with the person you are going to have anal sex with. Therefore, make sure that consent is present throughout the entire process. Ask your partner if it feels good and always pay attention to how it feels for the person you are having anal sex with. This way, you create the foundation for safe and pleasurable anal sex. Psst... Anal stimulation should never hurt, use plenty of lube and apply more as you go!
Anal sex is a completely new type of sensation and stimulation, both mentally and physically. It can feel a little forbidden and cheeky - which adds to the arousal and the physical sensation. Anal sex is independent of gender and can be wonderfully pleasurable for everyone.
If you have a penis, you can experience extra-intense anal orgasms through anal stimulation because the prostate is located in the anus. A prostate-stimulation orgasm is felt throughout the body and differs from an orgasm through penile stimulation. In addition, you may get a more powerful erection through P-spot stimulation.
A person with a vagina can also greatly enjoy anal sex, as the pleasure comes from indirect stimulation of the G-spot through the anus. In addition, a buttplug during vaginal penetrative sex can provide a tighter sensation and add another layer of pleasure.
Are you worried about feces? Use an anal douche before beginning anal stimulation. Fill it with lukewarm water (test it on the inside of your wrist so you do not injure yourself with the heat), then lubricate the nozzle with lube and gently insert it into the anus and release a steady but gentle stream of water. We recommend sitting on the toilet or in the shower so that the dirty water ends up where it should. Repeat the cleaning until the water is clear.
The most important preparation takes place mentally. It is important that you feel you really want to and that you feel safe with the person you want to explore anal sex with. Always try by yourself first - so you know what feels good to you.
Then move on by exploring different types of stimulation together. Start, for example, with one finger and then try a small buttplug; work your way up in size and take it slowly. When you feel ready, foreplay and arousal are important. Stimulate other parts of the body at the same time. Then start with a smaller buttplug, anal beads, or something similar, and take your time. Use plenty of lube and increase the size when it feels good. After that, you can begin anal intercourse and work toward an anal orgasm. Listen to your bodies and do not force anything to happen.
Which position is best can actually only be decided by the two of you - the most important thing is that it is a position in which you can relax and feel comfortable.
However, we recommend a position that makes it easy to access and stop if necessary. Spooning is a good position because it is easy to relax while stimulating each other and yourself at the same time. Riding is also a good position because, as the person being penetrated, you can easily control the speed so that it feels good for you.
The most important thing to remember is that the person being penetrated is the one who decides. Agree on a safe word and communicate throughout - so that it feels good for everyone involved.
Our experts share tips on anal orgasm
Product types
Sex toys designed for anal sex are safe to use and make the experience even more pleasurable. But which one is right for you? Here is our guide to different products you can use on your own or with a partner.
Butt Plugs
To Butt PlugsButt plugs are perfect accessories to use either to warm up for anal sex with your partner or to stimulate the anus while you have vaginal sex (or for you with a penis to use during intercourse). Many butt plugs have a narrower tip that makes them easy to insert, and they are then slowly, slowly pushed farther in until they finally sit in place.
There are different variants: with a round or anchor-shaped stopper, find the one that suits you best. A vibrating butt plug adds an extra dimension of pleasure because it stimulates all the sensitive nerve endings and can also be felt vaginally by both partners when worn during vaginal sex.
Anal Dildos
To Anal DildosAn anal dildo can give you an exciting and wonderful opportunity to explore the pleasure of anal sex on your own or with a partner. It is also the perfect sex toy for, for example, a heterosexual couple where the man wants to be the recipient of anal sex, known as pegging. Use an anal dildo with a strap-on harness and explore an anal orgasm that feels truly pleasurable.
You can also warm up for anal sex with an anal dildo - it gives your body even more pleasure. We have products in all sizes, materials and designs so you can find the one that's perfect for you, whether you're experienced or a beginner.
Anal Balls
To Anal BallsAnal balls are exciting to play with because they can be used in part to experience a unique kind of double orgasm or to slowly increase anal stimulation with larger and larger balls.
Apply plenty of lube to the balls and slowly insert them one at a time into yourself or your partner while kissing or caressing your partner's body. Pause between the balls and stimulate your partner with your mouth or fingers to build up to the pleasurable finale.
Once you have inserted as many balls as feels good, build up to maximum pleasure and, just before an anal orgasm pulses through your body, slowly pull the balls out. It will be a whole new kind of pleasure that you have never experienced before…
Prostate stimulation
To Prostate MassageThe prostate is located about 5-8 cm inside the anus in people with a penis and is renowned for its incredible anal orgasmic qualities. But what many people do not know is that prostate stimulation can also boost an erection, making it stronger.
If you are a beginner and want to know what P-spot stimulation can feel like, start by applying a little lube to your finger and placing it against the perineum. Make gentle circles over the area and press upward gently. This gives you an idea of what direct prostate stimulation will feel like.
A prostate wand is a wonderfully pleasurable and exciting way to refresh your sex life. Slowly insert the wand with plenty of lube and the curved part facing toward the stomach. Then leave it in place while you have sex to experience a new kind of pleasure together with a partner.
Lube
To LubeLube is essential when it comes to anal sex because the anus does not produce any natural lubrication. Anal lube is often thicker in consistency to provide long-lasting glide - but always make sure to apply more when the friction becomes too great.
First, try stimulating the anus only on the outside with one finger and plenty of lube. Make gentle circles, back-and-forth movements, or simply let your finger rest against the opening while stimulating your partner in other ways and experience the difference in your pleasure.
Hygiene
To HygieneMany people may find it intimidating to try anal sex because of hygiene concerns, but with the right accessories, even preparing for anal sex can become exciting foreplay that warms up the body. An anal douche before anal sex is both pleasurable and reassuring, allowing you to fully surrender during sex without any worries.
After anal play, it is always important to clean the sex toys thoroughly so they are clean, fresh, and disinfected for next time.
If you want to switch from anal sex to vaginal sex, it is very important to clean the penis/toy/fingers beforehand. Use a condom on the toy as well so it can be quickly removed before being inserted into the vagina - this way, you avoid unnecessary infections.
