Anal Sex is Abnormal
Anal Sex is penetration in the anus by the penis. Here we will restrict our discussion of anal sex only to heterosexual couples.
First of all, we need to understand what is normal and what is abnormal behaviour. Ask yourself these questions:
- Does it give you pleasure?
- How does your partner feel about it?
- Is it safe?
- Are you being pressured into doing it?
- How do you feel about it after you do it?
- Does it harm anyone?
- Is it good for your relationship?
Let’s try to answer these questions pertaining to Anal sex.
It gives you pleasure. Your partner likes it. It is safe. It is done with mutual consent. Both of you feel great after having anal sex. It does not harm anyone. It’s good for your relationship. If such is your case, then Anal sex is normal in your relationship. A negative answer to any of these questions may mean anal sex is not right for your relationship.
Here are certain things that will help you decide wheather to go for Anal sex or not:
- The Anus is not Physiologically conditioned for the sex act.
- It is contaminated with faecal matter and has a lot of microorganisms.
- The risk of infection is higher because the anal sphincter is more rigid and less elastic than the vagina which causes more friction and consequently more pain.
- It has a lower degree of lubrication than the vagina.
- Anal sex can tear the muscle in the anal sphincter.
