First Time Inserting a Butt Plug by Tammad Rimilia

A medium size butt plug is an excellent place to start, given that you've already decided that you are interested in having a plug inside you. The small size is for convincing the uncertain anal virgins that it isn't the least bit bad.

A few hints: put the stopper in the sink and run warm (not more than about 95 degF hot) water into the sink; let the plug soak in the warm water for 10 minutes before you want to insert it. Time things so that you've had a bowel movement recently, so that the rectum is likely to be empty. Or take a water enema. Then put a blob of lube on one finger, and gently work it into your anus. Add another blob of lube, and work that in too. When your finger moves in and out easily and slippery-ly, take the warm plug out of the water, dry it off.

Put a big blob of lube in the palm of your hand, and then roll the plug around in your hand, until it's coated with lube from tip to the base. Kneeling on the bath mat, put your ass up in the air, face down to the floor, and reach around with your un-lubed hand and begin to work the tip into your ass. Go in an inch, pause, pull out a ways, maybe twist it 180 degrees to spread the lube, then go in further, pause, repeat. Each time it feels like it won't go in any further, hold it there, savor the bittersweet "burn" of stretching muscles. After 60-90 seconds, the muscles should relax, and you can pull back and then insert even further.

If you feel the plug "sticking", remove it, and roll it around in your still lubed hand until it's evenly coated again, then resume the insertion process. Once the widest part of the plug goes past the anal sphincter muscles, they'll clamp down on it and pull it the rest of the way inside you. At that point don't try to stop it or pull out, gently assist the plug the rest of the way in.

Once it's in, wash your hands, and enjoy the wonderful sensation of being plugged. If you're worried about it sliding out (which is only likely if you have a good sneeze or you start to cramp), wear an old tight pair of shorts to hold it in. Then go about your day! Some people find wearing a butt plug to be a sexually arousing experience, some find it to induce a strong sense of submission. Listen carefully to your body, and see how you react.

When having the plug inside you starts to become uncomfortable, or when you just want to take it out, sit on the toilet, reach behind to hold onto the flange of the plug, and use your normal bowel movement motion to expel the plug, assisting with gentle pulling. There may be a momentary discomfort, but it should slide right out. Don't worry if it takes several tries.

It's not a good idea to sleep wearing a plug. You won't be awake to feel it, so there's little benefit to you, and it will loosen your anal sphincter muscles a lot, which it will take them a commensurately long time to recover from and tighten up again. Unless, of course, this is the effect you desire. If you need to take a large lover in your ass, or wish to try anal fisting, some loosening up might be helpful.

Also, while going overboard in the beginning isn't a problem, in general you should leave 2-3 days between "anal play" days, so that your muscles can recover. Certainly occasional binges are OK.

There is nothing wrong with liking the feel of something in your ass. And liking those sensations doesn't mean you're gay. It can be fun to have a girlfriend fuck you in the ass with a strap-on, for an interesting reversal of roles. :-)

If you are considering using food items or random household items as your first butt plug, don't. I _strongly_ recommend that you get some latex rubber plugs from your local "dirty book" store. It's much easier to clean 'em, they are less likely to have bacteria on them, and they are not going to have sharp ridges, which might scrape or damage your skin.

If you decide to insert a dildo rather than a butt plug, don't insert it _too_ deep, they tend to be longer. You'll be able to tell when it doesn't want to go in any further, don't force it. Your intestine makes a 90 degree left turn about 6 inches in, and you don't want to poke through the wall at the bend there. In practical terms, what this means is not to sit down while having an overly long object inserted. Another reason for using the latex butt plugs -- they aren't likely to be too long for you to wear, even sitting down.

If you're really serious about exploring this really pleasurable and highly erotic activity, then do it right! No half-measures; no cheapy insertables like flashlight bases, carrots, or other stupid stuff! I highly recommend that you begin your journey by visiting the SexToys store and purchasing a beginners kit! Its only $27.00 and cheap at twice the price to discover if you like it or not!
