What is the anal plug, how to choose it, and how to use it: a small guide to take the first steps with this sex toy.
An anal plug is a particular sex toy, both for the variety of models in which it is available and for the uses that can be made of it. An anal plug is an object that is inserted into the orifice for stimulation or as training for preparation for anal sex. The latter practice, in fact, if not properly prepared, can represent something annoying or painful. Not everyone likes it, but at least it is essential that you take all the correct steps before you get to real anal sex.
In the event that the anal plug is used precisely to use “the back door” during sexual intercourse, the object is also available in various versions of increasing size. When using them, particularly when switching from a smaller plug to a larger one, the process can be painful and therefore needs to be facilitated with a certain amount of lubricant. However, once the plug is in its position and does not move, it is no longer painful: the burning sensation can only be felt during the insertion phase.
The plugs can be made of different materials, all resistant to high temperatures since sterilization is essential with each use. And of course, there are the most varied models, both to embrace a very wide range of tastes and choices and to implement role-playing games. Anal plugs are in fact sex toys in all respects and therefore you can try something new with your partner, staging characters, or using typical BDSM practices, in particular the soft one.
Among the particular types of plugs, apart from the two that we will describe shortly, there are some that may seem more extreme, such as:
- plug with electrostimulation: it’s nothing dangerous, but it is a sex toy that offers some more “thrills”;
- plug with a hole in the center: it is used to allow the leakage of liquid and is mainly used with enemas for sexual purposes;
- expandable plug: in a certain sense it has the same function as progressive plugs for preparing for anal sex;
- anal beads: they are balls, or rather “beads”, connected to each other, which can also be inserted deep into the anal cavity.
Tail butt plug
Tail-shaped plugs deserve a separate chapter, perfect in role-playing games where the person wearing them pretends to be an animal. Usually, these plugs are reminiscent of dog and cat tails, but sometimes they are inspired by wild animals such as foxes.
The advice we give you, in this case, is of an ethical nature: before purchasing, find out what the fur of your plugs is made of, to avoid further cruelty to animals. Come on, to play pretend to be an animal, polyester is fine, it is not fair that your pleasure causes the death of animals – especially since sometimes it is dogs or raccoons.
Jewel anal plug
On the other hand, jewel plugs are without cruelty, made of stainless steel and zircons or non-precious hard stones. These plugs are colorful, fun, and elegant and have no real sexual function – like dilator plugs for example – so much so that they are often used during sexy shows and performances. But this doesn’t mean that you can’t surprise your partner during a romantic evening by wearing a surprise one, before or after dinner, when you have chosen to unleash your instincts in the sheets (or on the table, on the sofa, or wherever you like best).
