I'm New, Have Some Questions About Anal Toys

[chipper]

Hi everyone. My girlfriend and I want to start exploring anal, so we are looking for some SMALL beginner's toys before attempting anything bigger. I have found some beginner's toys that are 1" diameter, but she says this is too big to start. She is queen so I'm here to see if anyone can suggest a place to find something small for us to start with. Your help would be greatly appreciated, as we are both inexperienced as far as this goes. Thanks!

Seeing as how I am not overly into anal, I will try to see if I can help.

As far as smaller than 1" in diameter. I believe that that's about the smallest it goes (except maybe for anal beads). And, I am thinking that that's about the same size as a man's finger, maybe a slight bit larger?

The thing is, is that for an anal toy to be successful, not only does willingness have to exist, lots and lots and lots of lube applied to the anus AND toy, but the toy itself has to be firm enough to go in without a lot of difficulty (as far as it bending all over the place), yet having a bit of give to it, espeically for beginners.

You could try a toy that gradually gets bigger. I know Mike_d did a review on a good anal toy too.....here's the link to the review:

There's also this starter kit too:

If she's wary of size, well, try inserting your middle finger, slowly, and well-lubed at first. Remember, no double-dipping! That means, don't insert your finger that was in her anus up into her pussy after without thoroughly washing it first, since infections can result from that. That goes for toys too.

I would recommend lubes that are expressly for anal play. They stay slicker longer, and they are designed for internal usage. But please remember, that if you're using silicone toys, don't use silicone lubes with it. For some reason (not sure why since I don't know a THING about that kind of chemistry), the silicone lube breaks down silicone toys materials.

I'm sure others can be a bit more helpful, just wanted to give a heads up on what you may expect. I hope my limited advice helps.

I am what you would call an "Anal Expert" so I would first suggest reading my article on All THings Anal - in the sex eduation section. THis will tell you how to have safe, fun and satisfying anal sex. It will also suggest lubricants, toys and how to go about it. Read that first. Then, I would second Tyger's suggestion of the Beginner's Anal Starter Kit - it has everything you need to get started!

Good luck and have FUN!

Your articles always are good reads, lot better than ole wiki lmao

I got some anal toys (actually all of mine are anal), that are kind of old now, three years old at that, still kept clean and really nice. i dont know about sextoy lifespans, are they still... good? i mean the silicone ones the jelly ones, etc?

just remember the key to success in this area is lots of lube and take you time with it, if you go fast and she yelps you can more than likely kiss any further chance of hittin that hole goodbye.
