The Back Door

Anal masturbation can be a chance to experiment, learn what you like, and get to know your body — which can ultimately improve your partnered anal sex experiences should you choose to have any.

of course, you can use your fingers to pleasure and massage the rim of your anus, as well as explore some shallow penetration. Plugs are probably the most popular and most widely recognized anal toy. Prostate massagers are similar to butt plugs, but shaped and designed specifically to target stimulation to the prostate. They also come in a range of materials, sizes, and shapes, plus motorized and nonmotorized.

Most dildos can be used for solo anal penetration. As long as it has a base to prevent your bum from sucking it up and you’re comfortable with its size, you’re good to go.
