Never done it, either giving to female or male, never got it from female weilding sex toy, or guy giving gay (FTR, never got or gave any gay. Found diddling female butthole, or female diddling my butthole not very arousing / somewhat offputting. All I can say is “EEEEEW”. Licking the pussy she pees from doesn’t (usually) gross me out, getting the wanker I pee out sucked by her doesn’t (usually) gross me out, but BUTTSECKS is just “eeeew”. I pass. I _might_ consider giving her dildo work there (with proper reach-around for her, I’ll wait my turn), if she’s insistent, but even that will take some convincing. Beyond that, no wanker of mine in a bunghole (F or M), no dildo in mine, no love beads, no proctologist’s finger cheching my prostate health (once was too much), and certainly no actual male wanker. My bunghole is OFF LIMITS to anything but shit from inside, or properly anesthetized legitimate medical procedures.

Not interested, never been curious, don’t see it happening.

Even though I’m not religious, having been indoctrinated into the Catholic religion at an early age, some things are mentally difficult to shake loose from. Somehow I still feel anal sex is somehow naughty and forbidden so therefore exciting!  
From a pleasure standpoint I much prefer vaginal sex, I mean once you get past the sphincter muscle there isn’t much to feel really. It’s kind of like fucking a rubber donut chew toy (not that I would know what this feels like).  
But from a mental standpoint? Oh yeah baby, I’m being a bad boy!

So to sum up: I’ll do it if she asks me to, and I’ll like it, but I have never requested it and I probably never will.

I know gay male couples who don’t have anal sex. I doubt they’d call it ‘getting by,’ though. I think that perspective is slightly warped by a culture that sees P-in-V (or I guess just penetration) as the ultimate goal, and foreplay as stand-up act fodder.

I was raised Catholic too but it doesn’t have any bearing on my life, least of all this issue…

IANAD, but I gotta agree with ya, FGIE. I don’t like it either.

IMHO, I figure that anal penetration would cause some degree of irritation at the entry / exit point. The anus is made of different type of tissue that is much more sensitive than the outer skin and can damage easily.

There’s usually a whole lot of “are you ready?” “Are you sure?” before this happens, if not initiated by the catcher. If they’re not relaxed, it ain’t gonna happen easy.

And then, of course, there’s always the risk of… ahem… “overstimulation”, as it were. I don’t want to wake up in brown sheets if I went to bed on white ones.

Yup. Sometimes it just wasn’t happening with the girls I was with, even ones that I had anal sex with regularly. Some days it feels right, others it doesn’t.

I’ve had anal sex probably… 200 times? Maybe a bit more. Never once had this happen. I’ve read about it happening and I’ve seen it in porn bloopers, though!

I’m not attracted by the idea. If I was with a woman who fancied it, I would suggest a vibrator for her butt so that she can get what she wants while I fuck her now-vibrating pussy. Win win.

My wife and I enjoy it. We engage in it occasionally, if she’s in the right mood. Neither of us are squicked out by it. For her, she enjoys the feeling of being filled up, differently than with vaginal sex, and it’s sort of one of our “kinky sex” pasttimes. For me, it’s a much snugger fit, so my whole cock is enveloped in a tight, warm, velvety-smooth sheath that pulses and contracts so nicely when she orgasms. It’s an amazing sensation.

There’s usually some post-sex cleanup normally, whichever type of sex we’ve been having, so wiping myself down is standard anyway. A container of babywipes in the nightstand drawer makes this part easy.

Neither of us is squicked out by rimming either, so maybe we’re just predisposed to not be very squeamish about the area in general. One of my wife’s favorite activities is to sort of make out with my taint while jacking me and rubbing herself off, so we’re no strangers to that territory.

Pussy referring to the entire slit, not just the hole. I would have thought that would be obvious from my usage, but I guess everyone has a slightly different definition. By my def, that _is_ accurate, so there. 😛

I knew a guy who wouldn’t have anal sex with his wife, and she really wanted it, cuz he thought it was guy. “Having sex in someone’s ass? That’s what gay guys do.” I’m serious.

I’ve always heard that for best results, an enema should be involved in the process. Would that help with the whole ‘ass = poop = bad’ crowd?

I’ve never had anal sex, but I’d like to try it.
