How to nail anilingus?

We often hear about dear old cunnilingus, but the spotlight is rarely on anilingus. Seen as a fairly taboo sexual practice, it can be an immense source of pleasure if done with care and consent. So, how can you master anilingus and make your partner climb the walls? We tell you everything in 5 essential points.

Preparation

Hold on! Douching is absolutely not compulsory for this practice (or any other, for that matter). If you want to feel "clean", wash the area in the shower or with a fragrance-free wipe.

Stimulation

Every case is unique and it all depends on what you want, but we recommend taking things gradually. Start with gentle caresses and kisses on the area. To build excitement quickly, take it slow and gradually before getting down to business with your tongue.

Position

Not all positions work for anilingus; it’s a matter of common sense (lol). To have the best time, find the most comfortable position that makes the area easy to access. On your stomach, on all fours, spooning... Be inventive! 🙂

Communication

As with all sexual practices, consent is key. Make sure you and your partner are ready before getting started, and communicate clearly about your preferences and boundaries. If it’s your first time, don’t hesitate to set up a safeword in case either of you wants to stop everything.

Protection

If you want to practise anilingus with a new partner, remember to protect yourself. You can never be too careful when it comes to STIs, so use protection such as a dental dam or a condom cut down beforehand.

You now have all the keys to know how to master anilingus. As they say, now all that’s left is to do it!
