Is anal gay

Just how 'gay' is anal play, really?

I was talking with a newly available girlfriend of mine the other night, about the dates she’s been going on these last few weeks. She told me about one guy who shook nervously the entire time they had lunch. She told me about another guy who wined and dined her with an expensive dinner neither one of us could afford and dancing afterward. And then my companion told me about this one guy she met at a bar, then slept with – and how he wouldn’t stop texting her the next morning, or the next night, or the next scant days after that.

I asked, rather obviously, why Texting Guy wouldn’t give up the chase. This guy must really like her, I thought, to be messaging at all hours after a one-night stand. My friend laughed and just handed over the iPhone:

Would you be into playing with my ass later ;)?

And I looked at her, and asked, rather shocked: “Wait – do straight men ask women to do this?”

In 2012, one-year before what is called a “watershed moment” for LGBTQ folks in America by many due a burst in progress, Esquire magazine asked 500 men another question: “During foreplay, what’s the one thing that you hope more of from your current companion

Until recently, if you were looking to hook up on a gay digital dating app like Grindr, you’d enter your sexual preferences as “top” or “bottom.” In a sexual context, bottoming is the execute of taking a dick (or a dick-shaped object) in your ass whereas topping implies doing the penetration. When it comes to gay and bi men, a lot of people seem gentle of obsessed with working out who’s a top/giver and who’s a bottom/receiver, but in existence, MSM (men who have sex with men) may accomplish both or neither. If you’re easy doing both, then you’re “versatile.” 

However, if you didn’t choose anal sex, the option on Grindr used to be: “no anal.” As dismissive as that sounds, there simply was no other way to transport that you didn’t want to hold penetrative sex but that that wasn’t all there was to sex. But earlier this month, Grindr – a dating app for queer people – officially introduced “side” as a sexual option on the app, making it easier for many men to finally put a legal title to what they enjoy in bed.

Coined in 2013 by sex and partnership therapist Joe Kort, who himself is queer and identifies as a side, the term has gained steam only recently. On document, a side in bed is someone who do

Now here he was at the O2, seated among the commoners, with an opportunity to help take the Genesis story full-circle. Instead, he took the unselfish (if, let’s deal with it, slightly unsatisfying) route: avoiding the spotlight and letting his former bandmates enjoy the curtain phone they’d rightly earned. (“Me going was a rite of passage, really,” the singer told Mojo in 2023. “I’d been part of the creation of Genesis, so I wanted to be there at the end.”)

Here’s the thing, though: A lot of casual fans forget that Gabriel had already reunited with Genesis for an entire show—it just happened 20 years earlier. Oh, and it occurred not because of rosy nostalgia but due to mounting debt and death threats.

Gabriel staged the inaugural WOMAD (World of Music, Arts, and Dance) in July 1982, with the noble vision of sparking truthful cultural fusion. The three-day event featured British post-punk (Echo and the Bunnymen, Pigbag) and art-rock (Peter Hammill, Robert Fripp), traditional Irish folk (The Chieftains), Indian sitar players (Imrat Khan), Afro-Caribbean dance companies (Ekomé)—a legit

Would you describe yourself as douche-curious? Perhaps you’ve been douching for a while but are looking for pointers. However seasoned you are at putting things up your butt, there’s always something new to learn! So we’ve put together a beginner’s instruction to anal douching with everything you need to know when you want to start squirting down below. 😉

What is anal douching?

Douching is the act of shooting a jet of heated water or a saline fix into the rectum to scrub it out before sex. Douching uses several types of devices to achieve this, each referred to as a ‘douche’. We’ll cover these in more detail below.

Some people may instead employ what’s known as an enema for douching. These are medical devices designed to relieve constipation and are not recommended for douching, as they often reach with a medicated solution to soften stools or use a far greater volume of liquid than is required when preparing for anal sex.

Should you douche?

That’s up to you! Whether you douche or not is entirely up to the individual.

Many guys like to douche because it reassures them of no surprises when it comes to hooking up. But for those who keep a fibre-rich diet and drink plenty of
