Anal Butt Plug Toys

What is a Butt Plug?

Simply put, a butt plug is exactly what its name implies - an anal play toy that slips into your anus, essentially plugging access to your rectum while stretching and stimulating it. Typically a plug is designed with a tapered head for easy insertion, and a flared base to prevent it from getting sucked too far up the anal canal. This is an important consideration when comes to choosing the butt plug that's right for you. The base can be purely decorative as well, with unique designs ranging from anal jewelry adorned with precious-looking stones to adorably cute furry tails. Whether starting modest with an inch or two, or really trying to stretch the limits, a good Butt Plug is an essential part of any adventurous person's toolbox. With so many options, tailored to the millimeter for different bodies, they can be the beginning or the end-all when it comes to anal exploration.

Incidentally, many cisgender males report experiencing a prostate orgasm when their prostate, located below the bladder and in front of the rectum, is stimulated during anal play. Prostate stimulation offers penis owners a different type of full-bodied non-ejaculatory orgasm that is out of this world!

It shouldn't come as a surprise that anal toys are great for partnered play. Whether used to enhance foreplay or to bring it all home, anal stimulation opens up whole new doors of pleasure and intimacy. When you insert and remove your anal toy over and over in one session, you'll discover a host of 'tease and tickle' petite sensations and new amazing opportunities, for both partners, that you never even knew existed.

What Are the Different Types of Butt Plugs?

Luckily for beginners, butt plugs do not come in a whole lot of varieties of shape. The standard teardrop shape, with its tapered head and flared base, is ubiquitous. So, unless you're an experienced user who's exploring unique shapes, this makes choosing one for yourself a much easier task as it boils the decision down to a matter of size, materials and whether or not it vibrates.

For folks who don't like the basic models, there are Vibrating Butt Plugs for a more intense level of stimulation. These devices can range from the simple to the very complex, because once you throw a motor into the mix, the possibilities are endless. Many offer a multitude of vibration patterns and functions as well as having remote controlled capability. If that doesn't suit you, give the dual sensations of a vibrating inflatable butt plug a try. It will send you to the moon!

Looking put a little 'bling' into your anal toy? Then try one of our jeweled butt plugs. Adorned with one or more colored gems, these shiny cuties will offer you a way to remain fashionable, even with your clothes off! These eye-catching plugs come in a prismatic multitude of colors, with sizes for every level of experience. You also have a variety of materials to choose from, such as silicone and metal.

Looking for that extra sensation during anal exploration? Temperature Play might just add that extra dimension of pleasure to your platytime that you've been craving. Glass and metal Butt Plugs are ideal for this! They quickly acclimate to and retain the temperatures that they are exposed to. Commonly, metal Butt Plugs will be crafted from aluminum, renound for conductivity (allowing it to change temperature quickly) or stainless steel, prized for its density and ability retain temperatures for longer periods of time. Glass Butt Plugs embody the best of both these worlds while also remaining lighter to handle and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. A good handcrafted glass plug can be a work of art in and of itself.

Anal Training Kits

Anal Training Sets allow you to start slow and ease into anal play. There are many of these sets on offer and the reason why they're so popular is because anal play involves one of the most sensitive parts of the body and, as such, is exactly the sort of activity that should be approached with care. Finding an inexpensive set of plugs that graduate in size with millimeter precision, will likely prove to be an essential first step in finding your comfort zone. From there, you can experiment with different materials, deciding whether you like the soft pliability of silicone, or the firm rigidity and unparalleled sleekness of metals, glass and hard plastics. And lastly, if still not satiated, try out something that vibrates.

Still not sure where to start? Well, SexToys UK offers a wide variety of these Anal Training Kits and you can always take into consideration a few of our best sellers like the soft silicone of the Nexus Anal Starter Kit, or the more abitious B-Vibe Anal Training and Education Set, which will help you learn all the nuances of butt plug fun from the very beginning, including vibrating stimulation.

How to Use a Butt Plug

Butt Plugs are among the easiest adult toys to use. They are intuitively designed for easy insertion and, when a comfortably snug fit is found, can be worn for extended durations. A good lube is a must! Nothing compliments anal play like a long-lasting lube and you'll find several that are formulated specifically for anal activities and toys.

Small Butt Plugs for Beginners

Butt play is at its easiest and most enjoyable when you remember to go slowly and approach with care. Start small! Here are a few of our product recommendations for beginners:

Let's start with the Luxe Beginner's Plug from Blush Novelties. Its slim shaft and gently tapered head ensure that it will only apply a moderate ammount of pressure while retaining its ability for extended wear. If you want to add a little vibration into an easy-peasy beginner plug, check out the butt tingling options available in the Tinglers Plug 1 from NS Novelties or the B-Vibe Novice Plug. All of these are solid options to start with.

What is Anal Training?

The nerve endings in our anuses can make us feel fantastic when stimulated with fingers, tongues, dildos, anal beads, as well as other booty toys. Watching anal porn makes us believe it is all smooth sailing and simple as 'insert and go play', but your backside is not as malleable as a vagina, nor does it lube itself up as such. Anal sex training will get you ready for regular and arousing butt plug fun.

The First Step is to Relax: The key to anal training, as well as to any good sex really, is to just relax. If your mind is stress-free, your body will follow, allowing your muscles to relax and enjoy a good stretching.

Get an Anal Training Kit: Most Anal Training Sets come with three or more anal toys of different sizes (small, medium, and large) made from solid yet soft materials. They feature smooth exteriors, rounded tops, and a gradually wider middle as you progress down the shaft. These starting anal sets also usually feature toys with large flat bases so they won't get lost up the rectal canal.

Start Off Small: As will be apparent when getting an anal set, you’ll want to experiment with should be the smallest size. Use plenty of waterbased lubricant and remember to go slow.

Using Anal Beads

Anal Beads, as the name implies, are a string of beaded orbs, graduating in size and tethered by a cord that gets inserted up one's ass. Playing with these beads and eventually plucking them out, stimulates the sphincter muscles and trains them to open up and accept increasingly larger objects. Training with a good set of Anal Beads will open you up in no time to the vast world of Anal Toys like Dildos, Anal Probes, Prostate Stimulators and more!

Clit Vibrator FAQs

"Are Butt Plugs Safe for Beginners?"

Absolutely. Butt plugs have been on the market for decades, with tried and true designs that have hardly changed over the years. These days there are countless brands that cater specifically to beginners and those curious about their first foray into anal experimentation. As with any new experience, starting slow and doing your homework beforehand is going to go a long way in ensuring your comfort and safety. Also, it cannot be understated just how essential a good bottle of Lube is going to be when it comes to anal play.

"What Should I Know Before Using My First Anal Toy?"

For starters, know that finding the right Anal Toy will likely require some experimentation. This means that you may experience a bit of discomfort on your first try as you navigate towards finding the right size and flexibility in the toy that brings you satisfaction. Minor discomfort aside, what you should not be feeling is pain. Pain is perhaps the best indicator that your body is not ready for that specific toy or that the toy is just not right for your body type. Never try and 'power through' pain with the expectation that it will simply get easier. Instead, cease using the toy immediately and try something that's either smaller or made from softer materials. Start slow and ease your way in. Again, as we touched on above, have a good bottle of Lube on hand. It's going to be indispensible for anal play.

"How Should I Clean and Care for My Anal Toy?"

Proper care and handling of your sex toy will assure not only a longer-lasting adult toy but also your continued good hygiene. Most toys can be washed with soap and water. A better option, however, is to use sex toy cleaners. After cleaning, dry the toy with a clean towel and leave it out to air dry.
