The right way to have anal sex

The first rule of anal sex is to make sure that the receiving partner is comfortable with the idea and completely willing to do it. 

It is therefore important to discuss the issue well in advance.

This way both partners will have time to educated themselves about the best and safest way to have anal sex and to grow more comfortable and relaxed with the idea 

The decision to have anal sex should never be rushed 

Trust is also very important in anal sex. 

The receiving partner usually needs to know that he or she will be in control at all times, setting the speed and intensity and being able to say “STOP” at any moment 

Here are a few more tips to keep in mind

  1. Always wear a condom to minimize any potential health risk- not only because the anus is not the cleanest of the places but also because the rectal walls are pretty thin and facilitates the transmission of diseases. 
  2. Use a generous amount of latex safe lubricant in order to minimize friction
  3. Start penetration with something smaller than the penis, like a finger. Give the anus and rectal muscles time to adapt gradually 
  4. Next, move to two fingers. Only when you can penetrate comfortably with two fingers should you try using your penis.
  5. The receiving partner needs to grow comfortable with the idea and sensation of being penetrated. This is the only way he or she will be sufficiently relaxed when it’s time to do it for real.
  6. Go super slow. Take all the time you need and never give in to the temptation to force your way in; that would be a terrible mistake. There is no door to push open; it is a passage you have to travel patiently.
