Last year, we started noticing in our lifestyle circles that the anal plug, once a rather taboo sex toy, was becoming more common. Although anal sex is quite familiar among the couples and women we play with, the anal plug wasn’t often seen.

We got our first anal plug in 2020. We now have this set and love it. These days, rarely does Lauren — or our lover, Piper — not have one in when we’re making love. Below, I’ve listed five things to know about anal plugs.

Before I get to the list, I want to emphasize that anal pleasure isn’t for everyone. If you’re intrigued by anal pleasure and curious about anal plugs, Lauren and I hope this information helps.

Lube is key

Pretty common-sense but lube is crucial with not just anal plugs but really anything related to anal penetration. Our go-to lube for all things anal is Astroglide. Just lube up the anal plug and it slides right in. Sometimes, some saliva is sufficient for lube but we really try to properly lube Lauren’s plug (or my cock) before anything goes in her ass. Otherwise it’ll be painful and could cause anal/rectal tearing.

Feels quite good

So here’s the deal about the asshole: It has tons and tons of nerves and the bottom-line (pun intended) truth is that it usually (not always) feels good when that part of a woman’s body is touched and penetrated.

It took me a few years before I could really look closely at Lauren’s bum. When finally I looked, I liked what I saw. It was and still is pink, cute, tight and quite sensitive.

Lauren, like many women, enjoys being fucked in her ass. Having an anal plug in during intercourse more than scratches her itch for anal sex. Between my cock in her pussy and the plug in her ass, she gets the best of both worlds at the same time — yay for double penetration!

But we don’t just use her anal plug for intercourse. Lauren likes it when I’m giving her oral pleasure, when she’s blowing me, when we’re with Piper, when she’s masturbating, sometimes when we go out, and basically anytime except for when my cock is in her ass. It’s one of the ultimate sexual enhancers for women.

Enhances intercourse

This just in: A woman’s vagina and asshole are very close to each other. Lauren, like Piper, has found that when she has an anal plug in her ass, it adds some “pressure” that enhances her enjoyment during vaginal intercourse. Only rarely these days do we have sex without an anal plug in, meaning Lauren — and Piper — both prefer the feeling of double-penetration.

Can be worn for long stretches of time

Depending on the design, shape and length, an anal plug can be worn for hours at a time and typically stays in place and never falls out. This means Lauren is able to wear a plug when we go out, to a club, to a party, etc. There is no discomfort when she sits down so long as she’s sitting in a soft seat. On the whole (another pun), Lauren says wearing an anal plug for long stretches of time feels good, arouses her and makes her feel sexy.

Again, anal plugs are not for everyone!
