Perhaps it’s the fear of cleaning up a repulsive mess that has kept you from messing with anal sex. One more reason to use a condom and lots and lots of lube: it minimizes cleanup. You also minimize the mess afterward if the receptive partner can use an enema beforehand—after all, it’s good practice for the insertions to come. Alternatively, he or she could just fast for a few days before anal intercourse to make it a truly religious experience.

One way or another, the adventurous couple—or the adventurous single person—who looks to explore the land between the cheeks should be able to find enough lubes, condoms, and infinitely various ass toys to make sure No Behind Is Left Behind.
