The feeling of anal sex explained

How does anal sex feel?

The feeling of anal sex is unusual in the beginning. Many people describe the feeling of having to go to the toilet “big style”. At the beginning and with poor anal preparation, it can be painful. After some time though, it feels pretty good.

But let’s look at this in detail now.

Active penetration of the anus is usually very exciting and stimulating for the giver.

The penis is rubbed very strongly by the tightness of the buttock. Compared to vaginal sex, this leads to a better feeling.

However, if the anus is not moist enough and lubricant is missing, it won’t be a nice experience. The penis is so painfully slowed down and it is no fun.

How does anal intercourse feel passively?

The passive anal sex makes into deep warm feeling, which you feel in the rectum. It’s as if you’re being filled, so similar to when you have a bowel movement, only in the opposite direction.

Penetration into the anus may initially feel uncomfortable for the passive person.

How does anal sex feel to the man?

For the man, anal sex is totally exciting. It feels very special and a bit dirty because few women are into anal.

In heterosexual couples, no condom is usually used during anal sex and he can ejaculate into the woman without fear.

These are exactly the feelings that a man wants to experience with his girlfriend.

How does anal sex feel to the woman?

For the woman, anal intercourse is a double-edged sword. Most women have an inhibited, oppressive and uncomfortable feeling. The fear that “something could break” or “something comes out in the back” and so is omnipresent.

With the right preparation, anal sex is possible without pain. With a little getting used to, many women also enjoy anal and it feels really good.

Tips and tricks to help you get good sensations during anal sex

In our opinion, every person should try anal at least once. In order for the first time anal sex to be a good experience, the following points should be considered:

Rinsing makes everything cleaner

Before you take action, it makes sense to plan the sex act in advance. The intestine is filled after large meals. During anal sex, however, it’s much better to be empty so that no feces get to the penis.

It is best for the passive person to go to the toilet before anal sex.

For better cleanliness anal cleaning should take place, either using a douche, or at the very least by showering.

Don’t forget the foreplay

Foreplay during sex is a detail that should not be forgotten. Anal sex is all about good relaxation.

If the passive partner is cramped, the anus contracts tightly and the anal sex will not succeed.

With caressing, kissing and a sexual massage, everyone involved becomes more relaxed, and trust increases.

Elongation and lubricants

Before the penis penetrates into the ass, the sphincter should be stretched.

It’s best to start with your finger and play on the rosette. Then you can slowly put a finger in the buttock and start anally fingering.

An extra bonus is if you moisten the anus with a little rimming.

If everything is loose and stretched, then apply a lubricating gel of your choice and you can start sex.
