Most recent surveys show that up to 50% per cent of women have had anal sex at least once in their sexual life, and about 25 per cent practice it regularly. As for the opinions about the pleasantness of such activity, the following groups can be distinguished. Some women reported they liked anal sex and had it rather often, others said they didn't feel enthusiastic about being penetrated anally or engaging in other types of anal sex but still practiced it occasionally, and the third group was totally against anal sex and ranked it as a taboo.
Such diversity of attitudes can be explained by several factors. Firstly, women are generally susceptible to public opinion more than men, and the social and religious criticism of anal sex may appear to be the decisive limiting factor. Secondly, the role of a woman in anal sex is in most cases explicitly submissive, that is why it is so favored by dominating men and avoided by women who are committed feminists. Thirdly, unlike men with their prostate gland rectal stimulation of which makes anal orgasms so intense, not all women climax during anal sex without additional attention paid to clitoris or vagina.
Considering the above, a woman should be above all emotionally ready to experiment for her first anal sex to bring pleasurable sensations. It is important that the intercourse is not forced; rather, a slower pace is taken with the area explored step by step. Relaxed atmosphere, trust in the partner and confidence in anal sex safety all contribute to the willingness of a woman to try anal sex. On the other hand, roughness and awkwardness can cause pain or psychological discomfort in a woman and as a result she may completely lose interest in anal sex after the first unsuccessful attempt.
It would probably be wise not to rush with extreme anal sex, too, but to start using some anal sex toys, engage in non-penetrative anal sex, etc. Massaging the buttocks, the anus and the thighs, slight fingering or toying, performing anal masturbation or analingus, on the other hand, are likely to arouse a woman and make her want anal sex. Watching some softcore (or even hardcore) anal sex video tunes in the desired mood as well.
In short, it largely depends on the experienced partner that anal sex should become a part of a woman's sexual life she will enjoy practicing. |
