When most people think of adult toys they think of toys for the vagina or penis. Little do they realize, toys for the anus can be exciting for both males and females. Even though both guys and girls have an anus, these types of toys can stimulate the opposite sexes in different ways.

For a man, anal play is all about the prostrate. Sometimes nicknamed as the P-spot, the prostrate can only be reached through the anus. It is very small, and located between the penis and rectum near the bladder. Its purpose is to produce fluid that protects semen, and also assist in ejaculation.

There are a few ways to stimulate the prostrate. Dildos can often reach the prostrate and give the sensation a man desires. Dildos for the anus are typically referred to as probes and can come in sizes smaller than dildos for the vagina. Prostrate massagers are a special type of probe that are angled specifically for reaching the p spot.

In a female, anal play is a little more complicated. Some women simply enjoy the fullness they receive from having something in both the vagina and anus. There is a theory however, that anal play may actually stimulate the Anterior Fornix Erogenous Zone, a hard to reach spot opposite the G-spot. It has even been referred to as the female prostrate. To reach this spot, females can use anal probes or standard dildos.

For both males and females, simply playing with the anus can be sexually stimulating. Anal plugs can be used to stretch the anus either to prepare for anal sex, dildo or probe use. Anal beads stretch the anus repetitively. When inserting the beads, the tight hole is forced open then it quickly tightens and close once they are in. The process of pulling the beads out creates a unique sensation from the opening and closing of the anus.

The anus is a unique body part that both males and females can enjoy. With a great selection of anal toys available today, there is no reason not to.
