All your sex info in one spot

In several cultures anal intercourse by heterosexual partners is widely accepted.

One main reason is to avoid any unwanted pregnancies, with out contraceptives.

Athough this is not a 100% guarantee, since semen can leak from the anus, and enter the vagina.

Also, anal sex is even sometimes seen as preserving female virginity, because it leaves the hymen intact. Another reason is that the anus is considered to to be more pleasurable for the penis, being tighter than the vagina.

Determining the amount of people that engage in anal sex, and the frequency with which they do so, is not easy to put a number on.

Sexual surveys reflect whether those surveyed have ever had anal sex, or whether they have had anal sex in the last year, instead of distinguishing those who have tried it one or a few times and those who have anal sex on a regular basis.

Other surveys suggest that seven times as many women, as gay men practise in anal sex, a figure that shows the greater overall heterosexual population.

In numbers, it is hypothesized that more heterosexual couples have anal sex than homosexual couples.

Anal sex exposes participants to two principal dangers:

Infections, due to the high number of infectious micro organisms not found elsewhere on the body, and physical damage to the anus and the rectum due to their vulnerability.

Recent reports have documented that risky beahaviour is on the rise with men who have sex with men. The same among men who have sex with women.

Less than 40% of males use condoms when having anal sex, which leads to infectous disease, if they have had more than one partner or are in an open relationship and practising unsafe sex.

The diseases with which anal sex is associated are HIV,typhoid fever and other diseases associated with the infectious nature of fecal matter .

Or sexual intercourse in general. Among these are: Chlamydia, E. coli infections, Gonorrhea, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Human Pubic lice, Shigella, Syphilis, Tuberculosis, just to name a few.

condoms

The high level of white blood cells around the bottom, together with the risk of cuts to the rectum and that one of the functions of the anus is to absorb fluid,

Increases the risk of HIV transmission because the HIV retrovirus reproduces within the immune system.

Use of condoms, and other precautions are always advised to lessen risk of infections. Unprotected anal sex is the most risky sexual behavior in terms of HIV transmission.

Physical damage to bottoms can cause hemmoroids, fissures (anal tears inside)

and the lack of using lube can cause more problems.

Most sex positions can be done anally, especially those that involve entry from behind. Other sexual practices involving the vagina, such as fingers can also be practised anally.

Although some positions are not easy because of the different angles needed for anal and vaginal entry.

Here are listed positions that work well for anal sex.

Doggy stlye- This position maximizes the depth of penetration, which may be enjoyed by either or both partners, but can pose the risk of pushing against the colon.

If the receiving partner is male, this increases the chances of stimulating the prostate. This position allows for intense thrusting

Another is the leapfrog position, in which the receiving partner angles their torso downward. The receiving partner may also lie flat and face down, with the penetrating partner straddling their thighs.

Spoons-This allows the receiving partner to greatly control initial entry and the depth, speed and force of subsequent thrusting.

Recieving partner on top- These are sometimes used as a good beginning position, as they allow the receiving partner more control over the depth, rhythm and speed of penetration. More specifically, the receptive partner can slowly push their anus down on the penetrator, allowing time for their muscles to relax.

But hey each to their own desires, this just points out the risk factors.

What ever floats your boats guys and girls.

Safe sex is a must and to have sex anally with out it is just very unresponsible.
