Warm Up Before Penetration
Warm your partner up with hands and lube before any anal penetration to avoid pain and increase pleasure.
Remove pressure by delaying intercourse at first and focus on external play and relaxation.
insights INSIGHT
Stress Tightens The Anus
Stress tightens the anus and makes penetration painful because muscles clamp down when anxious.
Reducing stress and creating relaxation is therefore essential for comfortable anal play.

Ask First And Start With Fingers
Always get consent and never surprise a partner with anal penetration; discuss and plan it beforehand.
Use gloves and lube for prostate massage and begin with fingers before toys or penetration.

This episode tackles one of the most misunderstood topics in sexuality with two leading experts: Dr. Charlie Glickman, co-author of "The Ultimate Guide to Prostate Pleasure," and Dr. Hernando Chavez. Together, they bust the biggest myths surrounding anal play, from the damaging idea that learning from porn is effective (spoiler: it's like "learning to drive from watching a car chase movie") to misconceptions about sexual orientation and hygiene.
The conversation transforms anal exploration from anxiety-inducing taboo into approachable pleasure education. Charlie breaks down the real anatomy behind prostate stimulation and explains why men who receive anal play often become better lovers, while Hernando addresses cultural barriers and shares how that forbidden factor can actually enhance arousal. They dive into practical preparation techniques, revolutionary lube innovations, and why starting with external play removes performance pressure.
Whether dealing with complete curiosity or recovering from painful past experiences, this episode provides the shame-free guidance needed to explore backdoor pleasure safely and successfully.
