Exactly how do you choose – and use – a butt plug? Find out here.

The Basics of Using a Butt Plug

Information and starting it slow are key to successfully enjoying rear entry sex. Here are some basic tips on how you can use one of the most uniquely interesting adult toys out there, the butt plug:
1. Know what the butt plug is designed for.
A butt plug is a type of adult toy designed to be placed deep inside the anus to enhance sexual pleasure. They are mostly diamond, teardrop or flange-shaped with a thinner middle part and a wide base so that the toy can be kept in place once inserted. Butt plugs are also used to help dilate the muscles during anal penetration.

2. Choose a butt plug based on your level of expertise.
If it’s your first time to use a butt plug, it is best to choose the smallest one that you can find – and work your way up in terms of size. A good, basic butt plug should have a very smooth surface and an allergen-free material. Similar to other sex toys, butt plugs can be made from a variety of materials including rubber, vinyl or silicone.

3. Use plenty of lube!
If the butt plug is made of vinyl, a silicone or oil-based lube works great. For rubber or latex, a water-based or silicone-based lubricant should be used. For butt plugs made of silicone, only a water-based lubricant should be used because the material can easily dissolve when a silicone or oil-based lube is applied.

Venturing out into anal sex or backdoor play can be quite intimidating at first but once you get used to it, it’s one of the best ways to add a spicy variety to your bedroom activities.
