Anal Sex

This is a weird and awkward topic, and so I apologise in advance.

Anal, that is "anal sex"

 

Physical:

 

It is an exit, not an entrance. Poo comes out of there. It is a part of the body dedicated to waste management, not recreation. It is unsanitary. Also, I don’t think that is healthy long term for the muscles of the anus, or the lining of the anus. I don’t think that the lining of the anus or rectum is 100% adapted to penetrative sex, or *ahem* friction based sexual activities or any kind. I just don’t think that that part of the body evolved for the purpose of sexual intercourse.

Physical abrasion/damage and anal sex:

 

The friction from anal sex or any foreign object inserted into the anus or rectum may break the skin, making it more susceptible to infection. Any kind of trauma to the rectum or anus increases the risk for things like anal fissures, infections and abscesses. As well as being linked to fistulas.

Once you push through the anus. You enter the rectum. Which is the repository for stool. And is probably not the place where I wish to place my penis.

 

Anal sex can cause a fair bit of pain in many cases. And can be associated with increased incidence of fecal incontinence.

Furthermore, aside from anal intercourse, that part of the body (the anus, rectum etc) can suffer from a wide variety of issues that often require medical attention (particularly those that occur during and after childbirth). Things like fecal incontinence and hemorrhoids, and anal fissures are already a significant problem among women. There are also severe problems that can occur later in life with that part of the body. Just in general. For example, a lot of women over the age of 55 suffer from serious pelvic floor issues, and other issues down there, including but not limited to areas such as the anus, rectum etc.

 

And given how many issues have occurred in women over time, and throughout history. I’m not sure anal is the best and healthiest sexual activity to engage in with a woman.

 

However, the vagina exists. It is pretty close to the anus, and it is highly suitable for a variety of highly enjoyable sexual activities. Furthermore, mouths and hands exist.

 

Relational/emotional:

 

Anal hurts women sometimes/often. Anal sex I mean. And I don’t really want to do something that hurts them. And it is degrading. I don’t know that I want to behave in a degrading manner like this. I’m not sure that I want to have a relationship that involves behaving in a manner that involves sexual cruelty and degradation.

 

And it is gross and degrading. Not just cruel or mean. It is disgusting. Sort of. Bowel movements come out of there? You’re degrading the woman in a way that is unsanitary, and just gross. And you’re getting poo on yourself. I just don’t think it is a good activity from a relational point of view??

 

Perhaps I’d rather have a relationship based on genuine care and concern for the other person?

 

 

Mammalian:

 

On a basic animal level. I don’t think it is healthy (psychologically) for a woman to have penises thrust into her anus, and perhaps more importantly, for men to go doing it. There is actually an instinctive revulsion feeling (and/or fear) that goes along with engaging in anal sex. And perhaps we (or I) ought not to blast past that. I can’t explain it.

 

When I first viewed anal sex in pornography, I felt a visceral sense of disgust. I felt sick to my stomach. I was appalled. I think that these feelings of disgust are hardwired and might be there for a reason. I think mammals have it hardwired into them that penetrating the elimination orifice of the female is disgusting. And the female has it hardwired into her that it is wrong, painful and awful. And some sort of violation. To ride roughshod over those feelings of disgust and fear of violation might be a mistake psychologically. Those built in “guard rails” might be there for a reason.

 

I just don’t think that orifice is built for that (evolved, adapted, designed natural selection etc).

 

Conclusion:

 

It might just not be my cup of tea. There is contact with feces. There are visceral feelings of disgust. And I think it is gross and degrading in an unsanitary manner.

 

I am also a little reluctant to encourage or participate in a culture that seems to be working to normalise anal sex.

 

Anal sex may perhaps just not be my cup of tea.

 

It's just not for me.

 

Here is a good slogan, "poo should be taboo".
