Anal intercourse

A term derived from the Latin word anus (for anus) for sexual intercourse in which the penis is inserted into the anus. The anal region can be a sexually erogenous zone. Not everyone likes anal sex. It is a variant of sexual experience, not only among homosexual men, but also among heterosexual and other couples. Anal sex can stimulate the prostate in men, which can be very pleasurable. As a heterosexual man, you can also find this pleasurable. This has nothing to do with your sexual orientation. However, as with all sexual variations, you should only do this if you want to and feel comfortable with it. During anal sex, it is important to use a lubricant because the intestine does not produce its own moisture. As the risk of transmitting a sexually transmitted infection (STI) is even higher than during vaginal intercourse, condoms should always be used.
