The first time I tried it was with an ex, he said “don’t worry if we’re in the shower it’s just like lube” *eye roll* that is absolutely false, use lube. Woman A: It honestly does hurt, be prepared, and use lots of lube if you want an easier time. A lot of women try anal not for any dude, but because they’re into it themselves! Here, five women who have actually had anal sex explain their motives, how they prep, and whether or not it’s actually ever gotten them off. While this might be true for some women, assuming it goes for all women is completely unfair.
After all, the old adage goes that guys are into it because it’s “tighter” than your vagina and they’ve seen it in porn, and women will occasionally acquiesce as a bargaining chip or save it for special occasions only. Despite increasing pop culture coverage, anal sex is still heavily stigmatized.
