Last week or so Jezebel published an article about butt sex… The Popularity And Perfectionism Behind Butt Sex
As articles go its a mix, some good commentary, some bad, I enjoyed it, even the "Anal sex is bad mkay because now all guys expect all girls to give up the anus" point of view.
I figure an atrticle like this is just going to make more girls want to do it – becaus eif some author somewhere says it's bad, that means it's good, and only the coolest naughty girls will do it, so if you do anal you are by definition cool and naughty.
But, the interesting thing is that it got some response and started a bity of discussion – so go read the article and start boneing up on the latest gossip about anal boning.
Here's some snippets…
The recent rise in the popularity of heterosexual anal sex among young people is demonstrable and has been documented in a series of studies over the past few years. As the Journal of Sexual Medicine announced in 2010, 40% of women age 20-24 report having done it at least once. The number of 18-19 year-olds who've been anally penetrated rose by 20% between 1992 and 2010. Whatever the catalyst for the rise in anal intercourse, its popularity is supported by data as well as anecdote.
In March 2011, Naomi Wolf told The Age that she'd heard from many college health professionals about a troubling rise in the number of female students suffering from "anal fissures caused by sex." A nurse practitioner at a large Southern California university whom I spoke with for this story confirmed that she'd noticed the same worrying phenomenon. "Until recently, I got maybe one question a year about anal sex from a female student. Now, I get several questions a month."
While the existing research verifies a rise in the number of young people having anal sex, what it doesn't yet measure is how many young women are pressured to do it. More than a few of the female commenters in my Facebook thread mentioned that they'd been asked repeatedly by boyfriends to, as one put it, "go to 5th base." Another, Alexandra, wrote that "it seems like butt sex is a constant expectation now. It's depressingly predictable… I'd say pretty damn near every guy I've ever dated or hooked up with has asked me if he could do it." Like several other women in the thread, Alexandra noted she'd never actually tried anal, but was tired of fending off the men who plead to be the first.
I love the expression "get to fifth base", don't you?
Anal tearing and anal fissures are no joke, but first I want to see the numbers and the evidence, because a famous trick in propaganda, especially sexual and political propaganda, is to make up medical statistics or stories to support beingh against something youi oppose politically or morally. So, I will see if I can confirm this story of anal fissures, for now I warn that it may be a fiction.
But, for christ's sake guys, YOU DO FUCKING KNOW THE PORN MOVIES DEPICTION OF HOW EASY ANAL PENETRATION IS, IS A PILE OF CRAP, RIGHT?
In real anal sex, until the girl has become very experienced and skilled, yes, like a fucking porn star skilled, you CAN'T JUST SHOVE IT IN WITHOUT LUBE!!!!!
Don't be a fucking idiot! Doing anal right is a skill, don't be an idiot and just jam it in! The porn movies lie, that's not how to do it.
