Beads,plugs can fill your sexual void
"OK, sex columnist," some of you might be saying. "You've had sex toys that vibrate, sex toys that come with veins and balls, and sex toys that even come double-sided or with a harness. What more could there possibly be?"
Well, sit down.
Commentary
Actually, don't. Because the next tantalizing group of sex toys are made specifically for pleasurable and tantalizing experiences of the rectal kind.
So, let's all stand up for toys of the behind kind: anal beads and anal plugs!
But there's more out there to help you — or you and a partner, or you and whomever — make the most of an anal experience.
Of course, as was covered in last week's column, dildos make great anal toys too.

Butt plugs, for instance, are shaped kind of like dildos, but have a flared base. Just like dildos, you can get them in a range of sizes, from itty bitty to "Oh, my God." Some butt plugs even vibrate.
So what's the difference between a butt plug and a dildo? Think dildo for thrusting, butt plug for giving your anal area a feeling of fullness.
The flared base of the butt plug is another very important feature. Basically, the little base keeps the plug from migrating upstream too far. So be warned if you are using something for anal pleasure that is not made specifically for an anal insertion. Keep a good grip and make sure the object is sturdy enough for the task at hand. People have gotten things lost a little too far in, or have had things break off inside the rectum.
Unfortunately, whatever goes in must come out. Sometimes, this is only possible by taking a very embarrassing trip to Lawrence Memorial Hospital's emergency room. The only plus might be an awesome story to tell the grandkids.
Anal beads are another anal toy option. Basically, several beads on a string are stuck in the butt until orgasm, when the beads
are slowly pulled out.
Slowly. If you remove any toy from the anus too fast, it can cause a really bad mess (we've all heard the stories), and quite a bit of discomfort. In fact, it could even be physically harmful — which also might mean a trip to Lawrence Memorial.
But don't get freaked out — anal play is great! And, if toys aren't your bag, fingers work just as well. The area around the anus is so sensitive, just lightly touching the area can be quite the experience.
Playing around on your back nine can cause remarkably intense, pleasurable feelings just think about the anally induced orgasm shown in the movie Road Trip.
The pleasures of anal stimulation should not be limited to gay men, or even men in general. Many women of different sexualities can get turned on by anal play, just like men of all sexualities can. After all, sexuality isn't determined by whether one likes to have one's rectum touched, stroked or poked — so stand up today for some good anal play!

Some tips for anal play
Remember: in slow, out slow. It takes some anal foreplay (like finger insertion) to get things ready for business, just as it takes some gentleness to ease the tux (or whatever) out
Have good hygiene. With a daily washing, the anus is no dirtier than any other part of your body — after all, where have your hands been today?
Condoms, condoms, condoms. They'll help keep your toys clean and your playtime safe.
Never stick anything that has been up the anus into the vagina. This can cause nasty infections.
■ Relax and have fun!
Needless to say, a tight ass is not what you want, nor want to be, during anal sex. When done comfortably, anal play can be a very enjoyable thing. Take things slowly and see what happens.
You could be surprised.
