Mastering Anal Play: Intermediate Tips for Taking It to the Next Level

Building On Your Experience: Why Intermediate Play Matters

  If you’re getting into anal play with a partner, you should start with the beginner level. This is where you’ve established a fruitful and enjoyable foundation with a playmate.   You might have used objects or had penetrative sex.   This is discussed in the previous article in this series, “How to Master the Art of Anal Play: Beginner’s Tips.”(Let’s assume you’ve read that article and implemented the techniques mentioned.)   While not everyone will want to move from the beginning anal stage to the intermediate one, many individuals will.   This can enrich the sexual experience, provided you and your partner are on the same page with your wishes and keep communicating clearly.   If continuing down the path of anal play interests you, you’re in good company. Recent studies indicate that over a third of American women have tried anal sex with a male partner.  

Understanding Your Body at the Intermediate Level: Evolving Anal Anatomy and Sensitivity

  Understanding the anal anatomy is crucial if you’re getting into the intermediate stages of anal play.   The rectal mucosa lining is where the large intestine’s tissue lining changes from mucosa to skin. Here is where the innervation can be found. It primarily features autonomic nerves. This area is sensitive to distention and stretching.   The perineum is also important when engaging in anal play. It’s the sensitive skin area between the anus and genitals. It’s rich in nerve endings and can play a role in sexual response and arousal.   If you want to know the difference between beginner and intermediate anal play, it can often be characterized by moving from toys or nonpenetrative play to intercourse between two partners.   If you’re sticking with objects, it could mean moving to medium-sized from smaller ones.   Sensitivity in this part of the body can grow over time. In other words, it’s entirely possible for someone who was not enthusiastic about anal play to become more aroused by it through repeated sessions.    

Anal Anatomy at the Intermediate Level: Exploring New Sensitivity Points

  One’s perception of sensitivity can also change. While a certain touch or pressure point can be stimulating at first, it may grow to be outright pleasurable as time goes on.   There are additional erogenous areas you might explore with a partner as time passes. For instance, if you’re having intercourse, activating the pelvic floor might enhance your pleasure, while also giving you more precise control.   The anal sphincter, which regulates your anus’s opening and closing, can voluntarily and involuntarily control your anal opening. This both helps with control and can heighten the feeling of sensitivity.  

Mental and Physical Preparation: Getting Ready for Advanced Exploration

  For many individuals who engage in anal play, there can be a sense they’re doing something naughty or forbidden.   While that can be sexually exciting, there are also some psychological blocks that must be dealt with if someone is going to embrace anal play or full penetration.   Accepting new limits and challenges in the arena of anal play can be fun, but there may still be some activities that are still off limits.   This is each individual’s prerogative.   Physical preparation might involve doing some inward pelvic floor muscle contractions in the days or hours leading up to a play session.   There are books that show you how to do this, and there are pelvic floor physical therapists you might consult.   Communication with a partner is even more vital at this level as well. You will want to talk beforehand about exactly what both of you want to do before jumping into anything that could make either of you uncomfortable.  

Relaxation and Comfort at the Intermediate Level

  When it comes time for the event, deep relaxation to avoid pain or discomfort are paramount.   You might have some relaxing music playing. You may light some candles.   The proper mood will be different for every couple.   New positions or activities in the realm of anal play should also take into account both partners' physical abilities.   What’s easy for an Olympic-level gymnast, for example, will hardly be possible for someone who is nowhere near that flexible.  

Enhanced Communication with Your Partner

  Communication should take place not only as you’re planning your sexual adventure with your partner, but while it is taking place.   This way, both of you can feel certain you’re enjoying yourselves and nothing unexpected, painful, or uncomfortable is taking place.   You should be sure that you have set up clear boundaries. You may also want to consider having a safe word. This should be regarded as a fallback measure that calls an immediate halt to the action.  

Lubrication for Intermediate Anal Play: Moving Beyond the Basics

  Lubricant is your friend when you start getting into intermediate anal play. Gun Oil is an excellent silicone-based lube, while Ah! Yes OB is an oil-based one that gets lots of rave reviews.   Silicone-based lubes have a sterling reputation for anal intercourse because they have a slick feel and reliably long-lasting properties.   Much like any other product, it can be helpful to read reviews of some top-selling lubes to see which one sounds like it might be ideal for your purposes.  

Best Lubes for Intermediate Play: Silicone vs. Water-Based

  While silicone-based lubes are suitable for bath or shower play in addition to being slick and long lasting, they are also condom-compatible.   As for water-based ones, they are gentle on sensitive skin and are easier to clean.   It may be necessary to try both to see if one or the other is preferable for you and your partner.  

Intermediate Anal Positions: Exploring New Angles for Deeper Pleasure

  At the intermediate level, you might want to explore positions such as the piledriver.   This lets the individual who’s penetrating their partner have advanced control, though the partner on the bottom needs both flexibility and lower back strength.   There is also the rear entry position, which is like spooning, but with one partner on their belly and full penetration taking place.   These allow for stimulation of the erogenous zones, along with enhanced control for both partners.   As you move into more complex positions, you should both notice how the intensity of the experience will be heightened, and the duration should increase as well.  

Top Intermediate Anal Positions

  Side entry and reverse anal cowgirl are also suitable options at the intermediate level.   You may need to experiment a bit with depth and angle based on personal preferences.  

Enhancing Your Anal Play with Intermediate Toys

  Intermediate play can also be marked by use of toys that are considered more for intermediate use, like larger dildos, adjustable vibrators, and medium-sized butt plugs.   You will likely want to select them based on price, user reviews, and recommendations from anyone you know, assuming you are open about discussing your sex life with friends.  

Best Toys for Intermediate Anal Play

  If you’re looking for well-regarded toys, the VeDO vibrating butt plug is a favorite.   Vibrating butt plugs can provide a level of intensity at the intermediate levels of anal play that you might not be ready for as a novice.   The torpedo-shaped b-Vibe Snug Plug is also well regarded.   You might be more into prostate massagers. If so, the We-Vibe Vector+ has an impressive following.  

Mastering the Art of Positioning and Control in Intermediate Anal Play

  Control and mastering positioning can take some doing when you’re first getting into intermediate anal play. Don’t assume that you’ll be great at something the first time. Like anything else, it is often to your benefit to practice.   Deeper pleasure and comfort will likely come when you have attempted several sessions with a partner.   At first, you might focus on rhythm just as much as technique. As time passes, the most pleasurable experiences should become more rote.  

Improving Control: Getting Comfortable with New Positions

  Confidence with this new skill set can take time. Both of you should continue being very clear about what you’re liking the most and what you’re not enjoying so much.  

When to Stop: Respecting Your Limits

  This leads to knowing when to stop. Any time there is pain or discomfort, consider saying your safe word.   You should also both be sure to go slowly, especially when trying something new.  

Listening to Your Body

  Communicating to your partner if something isn’t pleasurable is something that you should practice doing. Some people have a hard time saying no, but it’s vital if you’re going to get into intermediate anal play.  

Conclusion

  The right amount of preparation, communication before, during, and after a session, and making sure you are both relaxed are the main keys to a successful intermediate anal play experience.   Lubrication, proper hygiene, and the use of toys you both like should help as well.   Body-positive play and confidence don’t always come easily, but as you become more comfortable with your partner, they are attainable.   Continuing to educate yourself, understanding what your body likes, and respecting your limits are also necessary.

How to Master the Art of Anal Play: Beginner’s Tips

Get Started with Anal Play: Why You Should Give It a Try

Once upon a time, anal play was one of the biggest taboos in the world of sex, reserved and people were not talking about it.   Today, on the other hand, people are breaking down barriers, exploring the frontiers of their sexuality, and turning old taboos into new ways of experiencing pleasure.   In fact, according to Pornhub, anal videos are one of the most popular content categories.   And from 1960 to 2002, the number of men who’ve engaged in anal sex rose from 9% to 34%, and anal-loving women rose from 28% to 30%.   In other words, anal is now more popular than ever, regardless of one’s gender or sexual orientation.   That said, it’s important to understand that anal play is NOT as simple as conventional sex.   Yes, the motions are more or less the same. But it’s important to take a well-informed and mindful approach to anal, especially if you’re giving it a try for the first time.   Otherwise, you could hurt yourself or your partner, and turn what could be a pleasurable experience into something you’ll never want to talk about again.  

Understanding Your Body: Anal Anatomy and Pleasure

  One thing that’s great about the anus is that it’s an erogenous zone for everyone. Men and women both have buttholes packed with nerve endings, which can provide a whole world of unique and interesting sensations.   But to turn those sensations into pleasure, it’s important to understand your anal anatomy.  

Anal Anatomy: Key Areas to Focus On

  We don’t want to replace your Anatomy 101 class, but here’s a breakdown of the body parts you'll need to focus on.   Butt cheeks - Although they’re not part of the anus, your butt cheeks are sensitive areas that can be teased and pleased right alongside your butthole and other parts.   Perineum and surrounding tissue - The perineum is located between the scrotum or vagina and anus. It’s a highly sensitive area that's also packed with nerve endings waiting to be pleased.   Anal sphincter - This is your actual butt hole. It’s likely the most sensitive area of your anal anatomy. Your sphincter is a muscle that needs to be relaxed for anal penetration to be pleasurable.   Rectum - This is the inside of your butt. There aren’t many nerve endings here. So it’s important not to focus on stimulating the inside of the anus. Yes, you’ll be able to feel it. But most of the pleasurable sensations come from other sensitive areas, not from the rectum itself.   Prostate - For men, the prostate provides insanely pleasurable, even explosive orgasms. Yes, men can ejaculate solely from prostate stimulation. So if you're a guy or you want to give a guy the best orgasm of their life, this is your main target. Women, on the other hand, don’t have prostates.   Whether you’re pleasuring yourself or a partner, you need to know that each of these erogenous zones can be pleasured in different ways.   Remember that anal pleasure feels different for everyone. So how you approach anal play will vary from one person to the next.   For some, stimulating the anus itself and surrounding tissue is all that's needed. But other people might want full-on penetration or prostate massages.  

The Benefits of Anal Stimulation

  Anal play is interesting in the fact that the anus is not actually designed for sexual pleasure.   Yes, there are nerve endings present in your butt. But a lot of the pleasure associated with anal play comes from the mental aspects of the act.   Some people find anal play fun because it’s risque and naughty. Others might find it hot because of the dominance associated with sodomizing another person. And still others might just like it because it’s taboo and they feel like they’re doing something they shouldn’t.   Either way, there are many physical and psychological benefits of anal stimulation, especially for men.   Studies have even shown that men experience far more intense orgasms through prostate stimulation. According to WebMD, penile orgasms cause between 4 to 8 pelvic contractions, whereas prostate orgasms cause an average of 12.  

Getting Ready - Mental and Physical Preparation for Anal Play

  Yes, vaginal and oral sex require the person to be prepared.   But because the anus is not a sexual organ, it’s important to be in the right mindset before inserting anything into your or your partner’s butt.   Below, we explore a handful of tips and tricks for relaxing your mind and body.  

How To Relax And Prepare Yourself Mentally

  The anus is an involuntary muscle. So if the receiver is not relaxed, their sphincter may tighten, causing any type of penetration to be more painful than it has to be.   The mind plays a key role in how the experience will play out. So you want to get yourself excited and interested in the idea of having anal intercourse.   Otherwise, it’s probably not worth trying it.   If you are excited, but also a bit nervous, deep breathing and meditation can help relax your mind and body.  

Communicating with Your Partner

  Communication is extremely important when it comes to any type of sex. Both partners need to be open, ready, and willing for the experience to be pleasurable.   If you’re the one doing the penetrating, you need to be ready to stop the second your partner says they’re not having a good time.   And if you’re the receiver, you need to clearly communicate to your partner what does and doesn’t feel good.   We also encourage you to talk to your partner before intercourse.   Discuss your needs, expectations, fears, and desires. The more open your communication is, the better your experience can be.  

Lubrication: A Key to a Pain-Free Experience

  One important thing to understand about the anus is that it doesn’t lubricate itself. So anal sex without proper lubrication WILL lead to pain, injury, and an overall bad experience.   Let’s take a look at the three different types of lubes to help you choose the right one for anal.
  • Water-based lube - Most common lubricant out there. They’re easy to wash off and are safe to use with condoms and silicone sex toys. But they do dry out fast and may become sticky.
 
  • Silicone lube - Lasts longer than water-based lubes and they’re water-resistant, making them ideal for anal shower sessions. But they’re usually more expensive and can stain sheets, clothing, and fabrics.
   
  • Oil-based lubes - Thick and long-lasting lubricants. The problem is that they’re not safe to use with condoms. They can also stain fabrics, clog your skin pores, and increase your risk of infections.
 

Safe Practices: Avoiding Pain and Discomfort

  Pain, injuries, and infections are just a handful of the risks associated with anal play. And that’s why it’s important to take a serious approach to doing it right.   One of the best ways to minimize the risk of pain and injuries is to ensure that the person being penetrated has full control. If the experience becomes painful or uncomfortable at any point, they should tell their partner to stop immediately.   Or even if they were interested in trying it, but changed their mind, the whole thing is now a NO-GO!   If it doesn’t feel good in anyway, either mentally or physically, it’s not worth doing!   Mental relaxation, being physically clean and prepared, and using plenty of lube are the best ways to minimize pain and discomfort.  

Exploring Toys and Tools for Anal Play Beginners

  With the right attitude, almost anything can be an anal sex toy. But there are 4 main categories of sex toys for anal.   Butt plugs and dilators Butt plugs and dilators   Dildos and probes Dildos and probes   Anal beads Anal beads Prostate massagers Prostate massagers  

Best Toys for Beginners

  You may have seen porn videos where guys or girls slide thick dildos or dicks into their asses with ease. Well, those are professionals, and you my friend, aren’t there just yet.   Beginners need to choose smaller toys, and then gradually work their way up.   Luckily, you can find butt plugs, dildos, vibrators, and prostate massagers in all sorts of different shapes and sizes.   You’re free to choose whatever type of toys you want.   But we strongly encourage you to start small, and only size up once your body gets used to the experience.  

Anal Sex Positions: Exploring What Works for You

  Just like sex toys, there are plenty of positions to choose from when having anal intercourse.   Missionary, doggystyle, cowgirl or reverse cowgirl are all classic sex positions that can be used for anal. However, they usually require a few small tweaks to provide better access to your or your partner’s backdoor.    

Best Anal Positions for Beginners

  Some positions are better for deeper penetration, whereas others are better for prostate stimulation.   Doggystyle is probably one of the more classic positions used for beginner anal. It gets the receiver’s butt right up there, and allows them to push back for deeper or shallower penetration.   Cowgirl and reverse cowgirl are also great because they give the receiver full control over how fast to thrust and how deep to go.   Regardless, not all sex positions are created equal. So you need to find positions that minimize discomfort and give the receiver plenty of control over when to stop.   Remember, having control can make first-time anal experience that much more pleasurable.   So you'll feel more confident right up until the end!  

When to Stop: Knowing Your Limits

  It’s vital to listen to your body and respect your limits. This goes for both the giver and receiver in any sexual situation.   Pain, discomfort, blood… These are all signs that you need to stop immediately.   Discomfort doesn’t necessarily mean you need to stop. In fact, sometimes, a bit of discomfort is why anal-lovers like the experience. But it's still usually a sign that you need to at least take a break and give your body some time to recover, especially if you're new to anal.   Listening to your body helps prevent injuries. It also makes it easier to try again in the future!  

Anal Play For Newbies - How To Have A Great First Experience

  Anal sex can be fun, naughty, and extremely pleasurable. But it’s not as simple as sticking something in your butt and hoping it feels good.   Preparation, communication, and lubrication are the most important aspects of a safe and pleasurable anal experience.   Both partners need to be ready, willing, and excited about the idea. Otherwise, nobody is going to have a good time.   That said, we encourage you to give anal play a try, or at least consider it as something that you might explore in the future.   Anal can help you understand your body, your limits, and how to broaden your sexuality with confidence.

Anal Sex Secrets

Myths, Preparation & Expert Safety Tips

Anal sex has been tagged a taboo for so long that there are waves of myths surrounding the act. Thankfully, health practitioners and the adult entertainment industry have helped prove it as normal, safe, and with better orgasms. Despite this, improper education still fuels some of these myths, which need to be put to rest. If you’re a beginner and are looking for the ultimate guide on what anal sex truly entails, this is the article for you. We’ve researched the most common myths surrounding the act, and we’re bringing you hard facts to dispel them. You also get practical techniques to ease you into the experience and the most important precautions to take before you begin!

The Four Most Common Myths And The Truth Behind Them

Anal sex myths are rampant and dangerous if left unchecked. The truth is not far-fetched with proper research, but we’ll simplify it for everyone who wants to embrace this pleasurable act. Anyone who has tried to venture into analplay has heard at least one of the following myths:  

Myth 1: Anal sex is always painful

Truth: No, it is not always painful. You’ll feel pain when you’re tense and haven’t properly relaxed or prepared. Lack of preparation means not using lubrication, failure to prepare yourself mentally, and forgetting to massage your perineum before easing into penetration. If you find relaxation hard, try breathing exercises and meditation to get you in the mood. Once you’re relaxed and ready, the next thing is to get a high-quality lube to minimize any discomfort.  

Myth 2: It causes permanent damage

Truth: Unless there’s use of excessive force without preparation, no permanent damage will be done to your anus. Just like every muscle in the body, the anus can stretch, accomodate a finger or a huge dildo, and return to normal. However, before you get ahead of yourself, always start small and gradually work up to avoid tears.  

Myth 3: Only certain people engage in anal sex

Truth: It’s believed that gay people are the only ones who engage in this act. On the contrary, all genders and sexual orientations engage in the act. The anus is full of nerve endings that can give mind-blowing orgasms, regardless of the gender. Heterosexuals indulge almost as much as queer people, according to studies.  

Myth 4: You don’t need preparation or lube

Truth: The most important factor to analplay of any form is the use of lube. No matter what the media has portrayed, you need high-quality lube before you begin anything. Get lube and prepare adequately.    

Techniques And Tips To Enhance The Experience

Your favorite pornstars might make it look easy, but it also took them practice with the right techniques and tips to get there. Some of the most important techniques you’ll need for a better experience include the following:  

Always prepare and start slow

The importance of preparation cannot be over-emphasized. An awful experience will begin with you being tense and uncomfortable in the first place. So, you must breathe deeply and relax all your muscles. If you can, meditate. To ease you into it, you can start foreplay by massaging your perineum and other external erogenous spots to get you in the mood. If you’re going solo, lubricate one finger and insert very gently. Start with circular motions that’ll help relax and stretch your sphincter. Then, you can add more fingers or try small toys (with flared bases and tapered shapes). Communication is crucial to having a good experience with a partner. If necessary, use safe words or gestures to get your partner to slow down or stop. Pace yourself and find the most comfortable positions to begin.    

Lubrication - The Key Factor

Lubrication is never too much with anal sex. Apply it to the anus, your fingers, toys, and partner’s penis before penetration. You also want to use water-based, silicone-based, or oil-based lube. Do not use petroleum-based lubrication. To many experts, silicone-based lubricants are the best as they last longer and give a smoother experience. However, it can’t be used with silicone toys.  

Avoid making these mistakes

A common mistake made out of excitement is forceful penetration without preparation. This means no lube, no relaxation, or even cleaning before sex. Doing these can cause injuries and put you at risk of infections. Also, use high-quality lubricants, and do not ever substitute that for saliva. If you’re with a partner, pay attention to their body language.  

The Golden Rules Of Safe Practice

It’s important to take precautions and inculcate safe practices before and during anal sex. Some of the golden rules you should know include the following.  
Always use lube:
While this may sound repetitive at this point, it should be the foremost safety practice. If you have high-quality lubrication, you’ll avoid discomfort, pain, and injuries.  
Hygiene and protection:
It’s important to clean the anus before any form of analplay. Douching is the best method to ensure you’re properly cleaned. Remember to be gentle so you don’t have bruises before you start. Also, use condoms to avoid infections.  
Do not alternate between vaginal and anal without cleaning:
It may look hot in porn videos, but it should never be done in practice. You’ll increase you and your partner’s risk of infection if you alternate without first cleaning properly. If you’re wearing a condom, discard it first and clean yourself before alternating.  
Take it slow and communicate:
Anal sex requires patience and getting used to for it to be pleasurable. Hence, you should take it slow and gradually take it up a notch. Listening to your body is crucial to avoiding pain and injuries.  
Know when to stop:
If you feel any discomfort or pain, you should stop with penetration. An early indication of a bad experience is when your muscles become tense. So, stop when necessary and try again when you’re better prepared.  
Conclusion
With these common myths debunked, you can embrace your fantasies and step into a world of unlimited pleasure. Remember, whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or expert, lube is crucial to having the best experience possible. Be sure to practice proper hygiene for better penetration and reduced risks of infection. Anal sex remains a personal journey and you must approach it with an open mind. If you have a partner involved, be sure to be on the same level of communication before you start analplay.
