For some people, anal sex is the "ultimate taboo." For others, it's the ultimate pleasure! With a few basic precautions the physical sensations you can get from anal sex can be out of this world.

1. When engaging in any kind anal sex, always use a personal lubricant. The anus is a delicate membrane that is prone to tearing. 

2. Take it slow-there's no need to "push through the pain."

3. When using sex toys for anal play, always use a product with a flared or wide base to prevent slippage into the rectum.

4. Always use sex toys made from non-porous materials like silicone. Always disinfect your toys before sharing them with a partner.

5. When engaging in penetrative anal sex with a partner, always use a latex condom to protect from from STD's. And, never never take the penis out of the anus and put it directly into the vagina.
