I think if you’re bleeding you’ve fucked up and missed a step, like “Go slow” “Try A Finger” or “Use Lube”. I don’t think there should be any bleeding, unless you’ve been fucking for a long time and gone dry, or something. One tip I have - you should try getting used to the whole concept by doing a little bit of self-exploration on your own, kitten. Once you can get a few of your digits up there, you’ll be ready for the big time… ---

I find it particularly amusing that it took a minute to notice. If something were in _my_ butt, I think I’d be aware immediately. ---

**handy** , After having seen a few more posts, I’m not expecting him/her/it ever to return. Such a sad, sad loss. Any way . . . Who’s up for Parcheesi? ---

Once, some friends of mine and my husband and I were sittin’ around, you know, just talkin’ about anal sex…okay, sittin’ around drunk as hell talkin’ about anal sex. One of my friends said that she had a book in her car that I might like to read. Imagine my delight when she returned with a copy of “Anal Sex and Pleasure: A How-To Guide”. The funny thing is that we all cracked up and she got really pissed off…turns out she was _really_ into it, like a Jehovah’s witness or something. No, I did not read it. But I do suggest the same as the others: use lotsa lotsa lube, take yer time, and do it with someone who won’t try to rush things. ---

Some idiot friend gave me a book about Caloric Loss during sex. I can’t imagine how many are for this activity. ---

Opus is gay too??? Good grief… everytime I turn around there’s another gay person I wasn’t aware of. _L_ I just realized how many ways that post could be taken. 🙂 ---

Heard about slow and lube, of course, but was also told that as a guy to think about it differently when thrusting. That canal is normally designed for outgoing, not incoming, so tell your partner to not thrust in quickly the first few times. In slow, out faster (but not too far…). 😉 So basically reverse the movements used during vaginal sex. Also read that sticking your finger in there every time you take a shower helps your sphincter muscle calm down about penetration- it gets used to it I guess. What about starting off with a small vibrator there when he goes down on you? Might give you the chance to see if you really like it, then I bet you’d be able to move up a size easier, as it were. -T ---

ya’ll enjoy anal sex? i’ve never had it. Nerve endings are in our butt so we enjoy going to the bathroom, but we can put those nerve endings to another use. Just like when we kiss, we use nerve endings that were put there so we would enjoy eating. (sorry guys, I couldn’t resist) ::::ducking & running:::: ---
