Yes, I Embrace Anal Sex – And No, It’s Not Gross

Let’s face it: not all sexual experiences carry the same weight, and we’re all aware of it. Most folks feel most at ease talking about traditional intercourse. Conversations about oral sex can be a bit more challenging to navigate—trust me, I know. But then there’s the elephant in the room, the topic we all find intriguing yet often hesitate to address: anal sex.

The moment you bring up anal sex, you can almost feel the stigma hanging in the air. It’s high time we dismantle that stigma. Why? Because it’s perfectly normal, it’s pleasurable for many, and it has been part of human intimacy since ancient times.

When approached correctly—think ample lubrication, a slow pace, open communication about comfort levels, and understanding that it may take multiple attempts—anal sex can be an exhilarating and rewarding experience for consenting partners. Personally, engaging in anal sex has helped me articulate my desires in the bedroom and embrace my sexuality. It has shown me that there are countless ways to experience pleasure. I once hesitated to explore this avenue due to the silence surrounding it, but now I marvel at how empowering it feels to express my preferences.

I’ve found anal play to be intensely stimulating, and I often wonder why I waited so long to discuss it openly. It’s also encouraged my partner to share his preferences regarding anal stimulation, which only adds to the excitement. If you’re considering trying anal sex, start small—perhaps with a finger (make sure those nails are trimmed!) or a toy—to gauge your comfort level before diving deeper.

Anal sex should not be a taboo subject. And if you choose to abstain from it in favor of other sexual activities (or none at all), that’s perfectly fine too. However, labeling anal sex as “gross” can perpetuate shameful stereotypes, particularly for the LGBTQ community or anyone else who enjoys it.

You don’t have to disclose your preferences or show off any personal items, but there’s no justification for judging others who find joy in anal play. It’s simply a form of sexual expression, and a pleasurable one at that.

Let’s acknowledge that the anus is rich in nerve endings for a reason. When stimulated, it can provide incredible pleasure. There’s nothing wrong with seeking out enjoyment in this way. We owe it to younger generations to educate them about all aspects of sexuality, including anal sex, even if it makes some of us uncomfortable. Shutting down conversations or labeling it as “wrong” only fosters shame and curiosity that they may seek to fulfill elsewhere.

So, whether you have a vagina or a penis, it’s clear that people enjoy anal play. It doesn’t reflect anything negative about them; it simply means they find joy in that experience. If you think it’s wrong, keep that opinion to yourself—your views shouldn’t dictate anyone else’s sexual journey, except your own.
