For the longest time, we've been socialised to believe that sex equals p-in-v penetration. And with that, we've also been led to believe that anything outside of vaginal penetration, such as anal penetration, is taboo.

But as the times are changing, so are ideals and perspectives. Now is a magical time to be alive, as there are so many different pleasure products and conversations being had about sexuality. It's truly the perfect moment to explore your body, and to find new ways to get sexually satisfied and aroused.

What is an Anal Vibrator?

An anal vibrator is a sex toy that's been designed solely for anal stimulation and pleasure.

And while some may believe that these types of toys are mainly used by men, this couldn't be further from the truth. In actuality, anal vibrators can be used by all genders and anyone of any sexual orientation.

On the other hand, they are a real treat for men, as it allows for prostate stimulation (more on that later).

How to Use an Anal Vibrator

How to use an anal vibrator will depend on the type of anal vibrator you've spoiled yourself with. Usually, these glorious pleasure products are slimmer than other vibrators because of the fact that the anus is sensitive. 

Some anal vibrators have a curved tip which is exactly what you'd be after if you're looking for a bit of prostate play. 

Other anal vibrators are shaped like a tear drop, which means that you can slowly insert the toy to the size that feels most comfortable for you. 

Anal vibrators should all come with a flared base which will allow users to remove it easily.

Different Types of Anal Vibrators

There is a plethora of exciting and diverse anal vibrators available today. Each have their own unique purpose, shape, size, function, and material, and what might be pleasurable for one may not be pleasurable for another.

The trick is to find your favourite type of anal vibrator in order to experience ultimate bliss.

The different types of anal vibrators include:

• Butt plugs & Butt Plug Tails
• Anal Vibrators
• Prostate Massagers
• Anal Training Kits

For beginners, this list may seem slightly overwhelming. So, let's go into more detail, shall we...

Butt Plugs & Butt Plug Tails

Butt plugs, sometimes called anal plugs, are bulb-shaped toys that are inserted into the anus. These pleasure products are made to be worn, but not for long periods of time. And while some do vibrate, there are non-vibrating butt plugs too. 

Why do people like butt plugs? For many, they enjoy the fact that it helps stretch and relax the sphincter muscle, which makes anal sex even more pleasurable. For others, the feeling of inserting and removing a butt plug is sheer magic.

For newbies, we recommend starting with the smallest size to find the best level of comfort.

A butt plug tail is essentially the same as a butt plug, yet has a little tail that hangs out. This makes the wearer look as though they have a tail, and can be endearing, aesthetically pleasing, or used during role play. 

Anal Vibrators

An anal vibrator is similar to that of a vaginal vibrator in that it's usually phallic or bullet-shaped. Whatever the design however, the main reason why people love anal vibrators is because it gives off a sensual and erotic vibration that enhances pleasure.

Anal vibrators can be used during solo play, foreplay, and as an added bonus during penetrative sex (double penetration).

Prostate Massagers

Prostate massagers are for penis-owners, as they're the ones who have a magical gland inside the anus called the prostate.

The prostate is a walnut-shaped gland located about two inches inside of the rectum and to the front of the body, surrounding the urethra.  

Prostate massagers are curved in such a way that it stimulates the gland easily, creating the opportunity for intense and super powerful orgasms. 

Anal Training Kits

Anal training kits are perfect for beginners and regular anal players. As we mentioned, newbies are highly advised to start with the smallest plug then work their way up to bigger sizes. Regular anal lovers may start at a bigger size, depending on their comfort and goal.

All who use anal training kits however are hoping to become more comfortable with larger items inside of them for various reasons, especially heightened pleasure.

Safety Tips and Helpful Hints When Using an Anal Vibrator

Whether you've been enjoying anal stimulation for years, or you're at the beginning of your journey, the general rules are the same. 

Lube: the rectum doesn't produce natural lubrication, which means that using and having a generous amount of lube on-hand is absolutely necessary. This will make the experience much more pleasant. We love the Intimate Earth Mojo Clove Oil and Anal Relaxing Gel, and the Intimate Earth Soothe Anal Glide.

Anal Pleasure for Beginners: If you're entering the world of anal pleasure, you may want to engage in a bit of solo play first. This may help you to gain more confidence, and to get a feel for the stimulation at your own speed.

Hygiene: Make sure that you always wash your anal vibrators before and after every use. Sharing sex toys, regardless of what they are, isn't encouraged as it can spread unwanted bacteria and possibly diseases. 

Double Dipping: If you're having anal sex and vaginal sex in one session, be sure to use a condom for each hole. Each orifice has different pH levels and kinds of bacteria that shouldn't be shared.

Douching: Accidents happen, but there are a few things you can do to try remove the chances of anything going south. Using a douche, for example, is the act of spraying water inside of the anus. Douching an hour or two before anal play is recommended.
