Why Butt Plug Pleasure is Utterly Blissful!
Anal play may not be everyone's cup of tea, but there's actually a whole lot of pleasure to be experienced from this kind of sexual activity. And in fact, everyone can benefit from a little anal stimulation. We say, don't knock it until you try it!
So, if you are interested in learning more about this pleasure zone, let us tell you why we're big advocates of anal play and anal sex toys.
Why Everyone Should Try Anal Stimulation
While slightly outdated, a scientific study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine showed that 94 percent of those who engaged in anal sex or anal stimulation, orgasmed! That's quite impressive, right?
And what is it about anal stimulation that causes these big 'O's? Well, the anus is rife with sensitive nerve endings. Many of these nerve endings are connected to the genitals, which means that stimulating them causes an even bigger kind of pleasure.
Gender and Anal Play
Looking at anal bliss and gender, CIS men (those who were born with a penis and identify as a man) have a magical walnut-sized gland inside the anus, called the prostate. This erogenous zone has huge potential when it comes to strong whole-body orgasms.
Massaging the prostate is also super beneficial for your physical health. This gland produces semen, which assists sperm in traveling and surviving. And when the prostate is massaged, it helps empty the prostate ducts, helping to remove any swelling. It may also help improve erectile dysfunction.
In CIS women (those who were born with a vagina and identify as a woman) have the power to stimulate the G-spot and the A-spot during anal stimulation. This is because these two erogenous zones can be found along the vaginal wall, and thus are indirectly stimulated during anal penetration.
Context: the G-spot can be found around one inch inside of the vagina. It's a magical part of the anatomy that, when stimulated, can create pulsating orgasms. The A-spot is sensitive tissue that can be found around two inches higher than the G-spot, between the cervix and the bladder. When stimulated, the A-spot can increase wetness, and bring on grandiose climaxes.
The Taboo Factor
Biology aside, there's another reason why so many people love anal play... the taboo factor!
Because society often promotes p-in-v penetration, anal stimulation offers just a touch of naughtiness to your sexual trysts. This can increase your level of arousal and be a huge turn-on for some.
Exploration of New Pleasure Zones
Then there's the matter of simply being sexually curious. Our bodies are capable of such amazing things, pleasure being one of them. And if there's a part of ourselves that can induce even bigger climaxes, why not give it a go?
It's extremely powerful and liberating to take control of your sexuality, and in doing so, you may just come across new ways to reach your very best climax.

Tips for Safe & Pleasurable Butt Plug Play
Fancy giving one of these sensual butt plug sex toys a whirl? Or maybe you're adding something sensual to your collection! Either way, following these tips will ensure that you're always safe during your anal play time.
1. Hygiene
Make sure to wash your hands thoroughly before play time, and clean and disinfect your toys every single time before use. This also applies if you're sharing anal toys. This is to prevent infections, and to reduce the risk of STI's.
2. Lube
Lube is an absolute essential when engaging in anal play, because this part of the body doesn't produce natural lubricant.
Without lube, you'll be setting yourself up for pain and discomfort... the opposite of what anal fun should feel like. Grab your favourite lube, or try one that's been created especially for anal play (like the Mojo Water-Based Anal Relaxing Glide or the Adventure Relaxing Anal Serum from Intimate Earth).
3. Health
You should refrain from anal play if you have conditions such as haemorrhoids, anal fissures or prolapse, or prostate concerns. If you're unsure, it's probably best to consult a professional beforehand.
4. Slow
Slow and steady always wins the race. Start off with loads of foreplay to relax, and when you decide to play, go gently and slowly. Any rapid or fast movements will mostly likely cause great discomfort.
Ready to rock a butt plug? If so, yay! You're about to enter a world full of immeasurable pleasure and sexual satisfaction.
