Hope people are not offended by this as it is a genuine question. Am just starting out and wanted to know people's views on anal douching, whether it is actually needed or not. I am planning to be a top and am thinking it would rather spoil the moment if I asked my play mate if he has douched before I go in. Both regard to anal sex and more importantly rimming. Yes I understand the importance of safe sex and condoms but am presuming that people in a long term relationship also bareback as well, so this question relates to both a short term relationship (ok, a 1 night stand !!) and also longer term ones. Would be interested in hearing opinions from both sides Thanks xx
I am versatile and i never asked to someone if they cleaned their ass LOL i guess the bottom knows well how to deal with it. And sometimes in a relationship during anal sex is normal that things go a bit dirty, but who cares
If you have a natural and healthy bowel cycle you would not need to douche. A healthy rectum coats the faeces with an oily substance which let's it pass smoothly without leaving any faeces behind. You can achieve this by having a healthy and balanced diet. I hope this helped. Good Luck, Gay1234
It's recommended by some sources, but isn't necessary. Too much can actually irritate the anus, and make infections more likely. The cons would be more time and effort spent, but you'd have greater peace of mind, I guess?
Gravechild makes a valid point which I believe is 100% correct. Look more experienced people may post her or they may not just for your sake let's hope they do. Did you talk to your partner about this? Good Luck, Gay1234
Just wanted to comment on the spoiling the moment regarding douching in a LTR. I had a relationship where we made anal douching a bit of foreplay....ok, TMI and kinky but it worked for us. YMMV, since I am a cis-female and it was hetero-relationship but I thought I'd chime in.
Well, for a different take: If bottoming, I think douching is good practice but using a very small amount of water. My partner, however, prefers that I do not douche because I am typically clean anyway and he thinks douching creates a different sensation for him. So there are times where I may not without much hassle being created. When topping, I am ok leaving it up to the bottom to decide what works for them.
