Why Build Your Anal Toy Arsenal?
Anal toys can contribute to variety in our sexual experiences, as well as to intensified intimacy, trust, and bonding. Using anal toys can introduce novelty and new sensations. They can help us bring more pleasure to our lovers or ourselves. They can be part of BDSM or other kinds of kinky play.
Anal toys are excellent for exploring anal sex because many of them are designed for butt safety. Always use anal toys with a flared base when penetrating that hole! Regular dildos or homemade objects can and do get sucked in and lost in rectums and intestines and require urgent medical attention!
Toys are also easy to clean and care for, always important with sex and especially essential with butt sex because bacteria and waste traces can cause infections.
