I’ve always been a fan of curvy – bodies, sex toys, you name it! While straight is great in some situations, it’s those delicious rounded bends and arcs that really get me worked up into a state. Do you know what else gets me worked into a similar state? You guessed it – booty play! I am a firm anal advocate and believe that the butt is a sorely overlooked orifice that needs to get a serious dose of attention. I mean, with all those amazing nerve endings and sensitivities, how could you NOT want to get down with the booty?!?

So if getting into anal action is your resolution, the Don Juan Silicone Anal Toy is a great beginner-to-intermediate dildo that can help you ease into the anal champ you’ve always wanted to be!

Lousy with curves and bends, this 4-inch long (1-inch wide) silicone toy has three distinct ellipses, one after the other (like a snowman), with a neck between each rounded bulge. And to thrill me with even more curves, this toy arches up slightly at the tip.

It looks almost like a bowing servant, here to serve your butt as much as you please. Of course it actually curves to stimulate the G-Spot or P-Spot (prostate), but really, I just like to pretend I hear “As you wish…”

Because it’s made of high quality silicone, Don Juan is a totally body-safe toy that can be cleaned with soap and warm water, or sterilized in boiling water or the dishwasher (top shelf, no soap), or wiped down with a 10% bleach solution. Easy as it comes!

Or, for the quickest clean up there is, just slap a condom on Don and go to town! All you need to do after the fun is take the condom off and toss it in the trash. Also, use a condom if you plan on playing with silicone lube, since silicone-on-silicone is not a smart move. Otherwise stick with water-based lubes and you are good to go!

I’ll be the first to admit that Don Juan is a little different than my other anal toys. He’s a little bit more flexible than other butt toys I’ve used, which is both a positive and negative. Flexible means that I don’t have to worry about him being too rigid to play with comfortably, but unfortunately it also means that it was a tad more work to get him into action and “down in the trenches.” If I was to think of a different way to describe him, I might even say a little floppy.

Either way, we had a grand old time, and I very much look forward to spending many a night with my Don Juan as we roll into the new year!

Celebrate with a Don Juan of your own from GoodVibes!

Happy Humpday!  Welcome back to the mid-week stretch.  Is it just me or does Wednesday seem to always sneak up on us?  Not that I mind – who doesn’t love Humpday?  Not only does it signify that we are closer to Friday, it means we get a little extra link lovin’!  Can’t beat that with a stick… well, unless you’re talking about watching hot people gettin’ busy, but we do that all the time!  Anyway, let’s get to it!

- Pretty hot cleavage, huh?  Well, it’s actually butt crack!  That’s right, this awesome photograph project is all about butts!  Well, it’s really about female objectification and sexuality, but it features adorned booties posed with torsos and arms.  Pretty clever, right?   (via Jezebel)

- Pierced nipple clogs?  What the fashion??  And we thought Crocs were bad!  (via TheFrisky)

- URL shortening awesomeness (they say fail, but I disagree).  Hey internet, when you are going to truncate a URL, always make it this hilarious please.  Thanks!

- Testicles for your truck just weren’t enough – you can now get balls for your iPhone.  And no, it’s not an app.  This new silicone cover features a ballsack hanging off the bottom.  And I can’t even say anything bad because 10% of all proceeds go to testicular cancer research.  (via Gizmodo)

- Violet Blue reminds us that there are only a few days left to enter the Our Porn, Ourselves video contest.  Go grab you cameras and get to work!

- And lastly – they finally went there, The Golden Girls has been porno parodied.  Seriously.  And while it is in porn* taste after the recent death of Rue McClanahan, they actually released it before she died.  Also, I can’t believe this doesn’t feature Nina Hartley.  Le sigh.  She would have been perfect!

(*I totally meant “poor taste,” but I accidentally wrote this and I thought it was too apt to change.)

Hope this gets you through til the weekend!

After reading this handy dandy little article on the Frisky, I decided it was time for a little HM4H public service announcement: Please don’t stick hammerheads up your butt.

Actually, there are a lot of items you shouldn’t be sticking where the sun doesn’t shine (in spite of the popularity of the expression.) Cups and broom handles are pretty popular on the Rectal Foreign Bodies list, but bottles are the most common foreign body removed – from the body. So please remember, be safe and chose a quality toy designed to not get stuck up there, like the Ophoria Rapture or a nice Rook E Glass Crystal Butt Plug (a toy with a flared base.) Even with a toy designed for anal play always remember to be safe, consensual and careful.

Earlier this month I ran a workshop on anal play for a local toy shop.  Since the class turned out so great and people had so many great questions, I decided to share my handout with our HM4Her readers to make sure that you guys are getting the best of the best when it comes to sex education.  There was so much info that I had to break it into two parts (check out Intro to Anal Play, Part 1)! What what in the butt, let’s get to it!

In the first section I covered all the basics of why people have anal sex, the fears surrounding anal play, the expectations involved with anal sex and all of the basic anatomy of the butt.  Now we get to talk about safety, prep, techniques and toys – all the super sexy good stuff!

Safety Basics

- Anal sex should not hurt. If it hurts, you are doing something wrong.

- Lube, Lube Lube, Lube, Lube! When it comes to butts, you can never use enough lube! Your ass does not self lubricate (like a vagina) so lube is super, extra important. For anal sex, thicker lubes are great. Your best bet is either silicone or water-based lube (as oil-based lubes can weaken condoms, if you are using them), but remember that you cannot use silicone lube with silicone toys. Also remember to add more lube frequently. If you think you’re using too much lube, add some more.

- Whatever you put up your butt must have a flared base that is bigger than the object, keeping it from going all the way in and getting stuck in your rectum. It is no fun and usually ends with a trip to the ER to get whatever it is extracted.

- Never go from the anus to the vagina or mouth without first washing off the toy, penis, finger, what have you. You can go from vag/mouth to butt, but the other way can lead to all sorts of nasty infections that you don’t want.

- Patience! Start slow and keep communication open throughout the experience. Make sure the person attached to the ass is doing alright and feeling good.

- Desensitizing lubes and gels that have a numbing effect (like Anal Ease) aren’t the answer to pain free anal sex and they can actually cause more injury. What you can’t feel can end up hurting you. Plus, if you can’t feel anything, what about your pleasure? Pleasure is the point.

- Keep your fingernails short and clean with smooth edges. The butt has delicate tissues that don’t like to be scratched or torn. If you want to finger an ass and also maintain your mani, try wearing latex gloves. They aren’t just for doctors! Also, if you do have long nails that you want to keep, put a cotton ball in the fingertip of each glove and get to business.

Preparation for Anal Play

- Make sure you are turned on. Get yourself in the mood and get comfortable. Maybe even have an orgasm first to relax and get your blood pumping!

- Take lots of deep breaths! Play some calming music to get relaxed. Anything that gets you comfortable.

- Clench and release your sphincter muscles a few times to get to know your body and how it feels. Try doing it fast and slow to see how it feels.

- Explore yourself. Get to know what’s back there! Start by feeling around the outside of your anus with your finger and when you’re ready, try inserting a well-lubed finger inside your anus.

- Take advantage of shower time and explore while you are nice and soapy.

- Speaking of soap. If you are nervous about dealing with feces, go to the bathroom prior to anal play to clear out anything in your bowels. You can also shower first and insert a soapy finger into your anus to get rid of anything additional. Some people prefer to do an enema before anal sex, but it is not a necessity. You/your partner can also wear a latex glove and/or condom to make clean up a snap.

Techniques & Tips

- Start with a butt massage to get your partner in the mood and relaxed. Begin with kneading the cheeks and running your fingers along the crack before you even reach for the butt hole.

- When you do get to the butt hole, spend some time on the outside before heading straight in. Trace little circles around the opening to the anus with a well-lubed finger. Press the puckered opening (like you would a doorbell) without inserting your finger. Ask your partner (or you, whoever’s ass is being played with) to clench and relax their sphincter muscles while you play with their anus.

- Use your fingertips to press along the butt crack, including the anus.

-Lube up your thumbs and press the pads of them against the anus, switching off in a circular motion – kind of like you are twiddling your thumbs slowly.

-Don’t forget about the genitals too! Just because you are having fun in the back, you should still remember about the vagina, clit, penis, testicles, breasts, kissing , etc. Have your partner play with their own genitals while you have fun exploring their butt!

-When you are ready to go into the anus, have your partner breathe deeply a few times and the last time they exhale, insert your index finger (well-lubed!) into their anus to the first knuckle. Go slowly and be sure to ask your partner if they are ok, if they want you to slow down, go faster, add fingers, etc.

- Once your finger/fingers are inside your partner’s butt, don’t just start thrusting in and out. Stay still for a little bit to get them accustom to the feeling. Have them clench and release a few times to see how they are enjoying it.

-Some people really like when you explore them by pressing your fingers along the inside walls when you are inside their ass. Try up, down, left and right. Go slow and don’t push too hard.

-Once they get comfortable with your fingers and are having fun, maybe incorporate a toy into the experience. A butt plug is always fun because it is designed to stay put while you have fun with other parts of their body (just wash your hands/take of gloves).

- Anal sex can be done in just about any position that vaginal sex can be done. Some people really enjoy the access that they have with doggy style (entering the ass from behind while the recipient is on their knees, bent over), while other people prefer the “bottom” to be on “top,” as they can control the speed and depth of the penetration better with that position. You can also try missionary, spooning, standing, legs over the head, whatever! As you as you can reach the butt you need!

- Remember, the first few inches of the butt are the most sensitive, so you don’t need to go in super far to have a pleasurable experience.

-Don’t forget about the G-Spot and P-Spot, which are both accessible from the anus.

 Here are a few tips of anal toys, including some we have reviewed!

Anal Beads:A series of small beads that are attached by a string or a stalk. Sometimes the beads are the same size and sometimes the increase gradually in size. (Flexi Felix is pictured)

Butt Plug:Diamond or mushroom shaped anal toy with a tapered neck and a flared base. Designed to stay put in your butt. (Little Flirt is pictured)

Anal Beads:Usually a smaller, thinner dildo with a flared base. Great for thrusting in and out. They can be used in a harness as well. (Compact is pictured)

Anal Vibe: A toy that vibrates to stimulate sensitive genital and anal tissues. Lots of butt plugs and dildos come with vibrating bullets that can be inserted into the toy. (Waterproof P-Spot Vibe is pictured)

Prostate Toy: Toys that are specifically designed to stimulate a man’s prostate gland and can intensify orgasm. (Pictured is Aneros MGX)

Now that you’ve got all the sexy, sexy info, go hit those sheets!

Remember to enjoy yourself!  It’s sex, it’s supposed to be fun!

Find out more hot butt tips from the Instructional Queen in Nina Hartley’s Advanced Guide To Anal Sex For Men And Women:

Studio: Buttman Category: Instructional

Back before Anal Queen Tristan Taormino started her Expert Guide series, she was just a sex educator with an instructional porn dream. Intent on making her dream a reality, she partnered up with director Ernest Greene and John “Buttman” Stagliano to create this fun and informative porn star gonzo butt sex flick. Ok, so I don’t know that for fact really, but I do know this looks to be one of Taormino’s first movies, which makes it all the more thrilling for me.

Before watching this movie, I had only seen Tristan Taormino as the sexy but fully clothed sex educator in her films. She’d guide us though all the good stuff, but never join in herself (to my repeated disappointment.) In this Ultimate Guide, Tristan gets down and dirty, still staying clothed, but licking pussy and getting her fingers nice and lubed up for a little anal adventure. Finally! I mean, I love watching Tristan in anything she does, but getting a chance to see her digits deep in a hot girl’s ass is all the more exciting.

[Edit:  The first time I watched this to review, I'll admit that I didn't get to the last scene before I wrote it up. Luckily a reader pointed out that I missed the best scene of the movie, where Tristan Toarmino gets naked and seriously fucked in a massive orgy.  It's the pièce de résistance and I can't believe I passed it by the first time around.  Tristan takes it like a champ in almost every hole she's got (no urethra or nose fucking, but you get the point) and lets herself has as much fun as she does with the education component.  I love that her body is real and sexy and has no traces of being porno-fied.  She is a teacher through and through, but it's nice to see her having a little fun in front of the camera.  I'm pretty sure I can now die happy.  Thanks John Stagliano.] 

Along with giving me more Tristan to swoon over, this Ultimate Guide offered me lots of great information and clear, easy instructions. I really liked that Taormino started at the beginning with anatomy and stereotypes, then moved on to technique and more advanced stuff. It was really thorough and totally hot. Plus, I never get tired of seeing Nina Hartley with her ass in the air. She is pretty much the ultimate bonus to this already awesome video.

This movie has a different vibe than Taormino’s other instructional flicks. It’s a little pornier than the others and a bit less sensual. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. I appreciated seeing Tristan educate in a different kind of setting and maybe even give the porn stars a few tips of the trade. Stagliano was kind of annoying to me and I wasn’t really into all his comments, but he didn’t interrupt too often, so I just let it go. All in all, the movie was fun, engaging and full of lots of useful and exciting information.

Putting glass up your ass is generally considered a no-no. Aside from being extremely dangerous and harmful to all your delicate tissues, I can imagine it would hurt like a bitch. But think about all the benefits of glass… it can be so silky smooth, take temperature change like a champ and be really heavy when you want it to be. Sigh, that sounds so fun. Good thing some scientist somewhere decided to make a fracture-resistant glass that later allowed an awesome pervert to fashion it into the ultimate glass butt plug!

That’s the Rook E Glass Crystal Butt Plug for you! Science’s gift to the anal connoisseur. What sets this plug apart from others is definitely its material. While I love, love, love silicone toys, glass provides a few extra benefits that silicone just can’t offer. First off, glass is super smooth and only takes the smallest drop of lube to get it nice and slippery (though I suggest using more than just a drop when you are hitting the back door), and it offers little to no friction resistance as it slides into your body. Glass also takes temperature change extremely well and the Rook E can be cooled down and chilly or heated up to a perfect body temperature using warm and ice cold water. So easy. Also, with silicone toys you get a little give, which the Rook E does not allow. The solid glass keeps rigid and feels more filling than a silicone plug of the exact same size. And speaking of size…

Two of my favorite aspects of this big guy are its weight and size. Measuring in at 4½ inches long and 1½ inches at its widest point, I might not say the Rook E is for rookies exactly, but if you are an experienced anal adventurer, this plug should work out just fine. Plus it starts out small and gets bigger, so it’s a fun toy to test out girth with. While I’m not quite sure how much it weighs (I’d guess about the same as a lighter paperweight?), this glass crystal toy is no feather. The weight is what makes it so fun. Though it’s not usually easy to forget you have something in your ass, with this toy you will most definitely know it’s back there at all times. Heavy, big and rigid – the perfect plug trifecta. Hold on a sec while I fan myself…

 I also really like that Rook E is clear glass. Not everybody wants to be able to see a bit into someone’s open butthole, but I like the idea that the option is there. Hey, I write for a porn company – I’m a known pervert and sex educator, and I’m not ashamed to want to get a better look into a bottom! You shouldn’t be either. Butts are the best and should be enjoyed just like every other part of the body!

When it comes to butt plugs, the Rook E is a great flared based toy that stays where it’s put, fills you up and will last a lifetime. Two thumbs up for my new best butty!
