To help you limit your options for butt plugs, read the article from beginning to end or follow the steps. Have fun!

Make Sure It's Safe for Anal Play

Regretfully, this must be stated. "Butt plugs" made by specific manufacturers aren't really safe to put in the butt. Any anal toy you want to use should have a broad base that is more than the toy's width and serves as a suitable "stopping point." For ease of removal, the plug's base should remain outside the body. Therefore, you might want to think about using a different kind of butt plug if it appears that the toy could completely slide inside the body.

Consider the Size of the Butt Plug

Generally speaking, it's better to go smaller rather than larger. Once you've enjoyed using a smaller plug, you may always get a larger one. However, using a plug that is too big for you may make it difficult to enjoy your sessions. Try anal pleasure with your fingers before buying a toy, and buy a toy that's around the same size as what you like to do with your hand. Toys in the 0.75 to 1.25 diameter range are generally easy for many novices to appreciate. Some novice explorers might not enjoy going much more significant than that.

Contemplate Where You'd Like to Wear It

What you might want to get dramatically depends on where you want to enjoy your butt plug. You should look for a plug that is made explicitly for extended use if you plan to wear it anywhere. Some butt plug designs may fall out more readily than others, particularly those that are extremely thin, lack a curve, or have varied thicknesses. A butt plug harness or a pair of suitably tight underpants would be a valuable addition to your buy if you anticipate this being an issue.

Read the Reviews

This complements the previously mentioned tip. The reviews of your possible butt plug should be read. Specific butt plugs will remain in place longer than others. It might not be a problem if you and your lover plan to enjoy your plug while resting in bed. Make sure the reviewers concur that it stays in rather well if you intend to wear it out to go grocery shopping. Utilize their experience before buying a butt plug to make sure it's the appropriate one for you. Some folks have been using different butt plugs for years.

Think About the Material

Butt plug materials vary greatly. There are still a lot of material possibilities available to you, even though I will always advise against playing with any toys that contain phthalates. Among other materials, phthalate-free butt plugs can be fashioned from wood, glass, silicone, plastic, rubber, and jelly. You should also consider the cleanup. You should definitely think about using a sterilizable, non-porous material, like silicone, if you intend to share your plug with someone else, such as your lover.

Include Rigidity in Your Material Concerns

Consider the rigidity you would like when you are thinking about the material. A flexible plug that bends with your movement might be what you're looking for, especially if you'll be wearing it out and about. For prostate play and stationary play, more firm materials might be ideal, and other individuals prefer the feel of a toy that doesn't flex or give. You might need something that bends with your body, though, if you plan to use the butt plug for an extended period during the day in order to maximize comfort and enjoyment.

Choosing the Right Lube for Your Butt Plug

The majority of people have preferences for a certain kind of lubricant, just like with everything else in life. Because water-based lubrication is easy to clean and works with most materials, some people adore it. Because silicone-based lubricant lasts so long, some people swear by it. Selecting the appropriate lubricant for your butt plug is crucial. Make sure you choose a butt plug that works with the lubrication you prefer if you have one (check your bottle of lube to see what kind you currently have!). All materials can be used with water-based. All toy materials can be used with silicone-based lube, while some silicone devices might not work well with it. First, try a patch test.

Consider a Set of Butt Plugs

This is an excellent choice, particularly if you want to work up to penetration with a penis using your butt plugs. Similar-looking plugs with gradually increasing diameters are included in many sets. By doing this, you can gradually increase your size until it resembles the diameter of a penis. Depending on your preferences, you can gradually increase to this size in a single session or spread it out across several sessions.

A newbie should be aware of a few other things regarding the use of anal toys in addition to these recommendations for buying a butt plug. The most crucial thing when using toys is to unwind. The anal region might get tense if you're not relaxed, just like any other muscle. It's totally acceptable if that means you wind up playing alone the first few times to unwind. Using the right amount of lubrication is the second most crucial step. The anal region does not produce its lubrication, while the vaginal region does. Use a sufficient amount of lubrication, and even after you believe you have applied enough, add a little more, just in case. Because anal tissue is sensitive, you don't want to harm it inadvertently. Before you start using your new toy, read these suggestions for enjoyable anal play for extra advice.

Now that you have the information you need, you can buy your first butt plug wisely and have fun your first time using it. Keep in mind that it could take some trial and error to determine what anal pleasure feels like to you. If the initial plug isn't very effective, think about trying another one on a different day. Perhaps you need to wait another day because our bodies react differently to pleasure each day. Enjoy yourself to the fullest, and take your time!
