Anal sex is not for everyone. But for those who have tried it, the pleasure it brings and the different sensations it provides makes it a pleasant alternative to vaginal or oral sex. The practice of anal sex is starting to gain widespread acceptance, proof of which is the availability of an increasing number of anal sex toys a person or couples can acquire from the web or the neighborhood adult novelties store.

Anal sex most often refers to sex involving the insertion of the penis into the anus. The term can also include other sexual activities involving the anus such as anilingus or stimulating the anus with the mouth and tongue, and fingering.
The reason behind the growing popularity of anal sex even between heterosexual couples is the very low risk of unwanted pregnancy. Anal sex is also sometimes seen as preserving the female virginity as there is no vaginal penetration and the hymen in the vagina remains intact. Moreover, the anus creates more tactile sensations, pressure and pleasure to the penis as it is tighter than the vagina.
Anal sex for men provides extra stimulation through contact with the prostate through the rectum. The prostate gland is the organ responsible for controlling ejaculation and the production of semen. Ejaculation through stimulation of the prostate reportedly increases the intensity of the ejaculation and orgasm experienced by men who have tried it.
Vibrating Butt Plug
As a result heterosexual men employ anal sex toys such as butt plugs and anal dildos to increase the pleasure they feel during heterosexual sex.
Anal sex is not without its dangers, however. This method of intercourse is considered a high risk one because of the vulnerability of the tissues in the anal opening and the rectum. Thus when engaged in this activity whether by penetration with the penis or through the use of an adult sex toy, the use of a generous amount of lubricant is advisable—even necessary.
Moreover, there is a great risk of infection to people who engage in anal sex. This is due to the high number of infectious microorganisms found in the rectum. Anal sex is also associated with a great number of sexually transmitted disease such as HIV/AIDS, human papilloma virus, typhoid fever and various other diseases which one can contract through contact with fecal matter.
Anal sex can indeed be a pleasurable activity for couples. The simple measures of using an adequate amount of lubricant, good personal hygiene and the use of a condom should make the experience a more worry-free activity.
