Fact: This idea has been everywhere, just like how people said the vagina would never return to its normal size after childbirth, it is not true. will not lead to loss of control over bowel movement, that was a rumour that started in the late seventies about men who were involved in anal sex. On the other hand, anal sex can train your body on how to relax, and a lot of this preparation is mental, the mind and body is relaxed which is why you see those porn stars take all sorts of huge dicks.

Wrong Idea 2: It’s a filthy act

Fact: This is like the biggest misconception about anal sex, the anus in actuality has very small amount of fecal matter in them which destroys this assumption that it’s dirty and super filthy.

The smallest transfer of fecal matter into the rectum can cause vaginal infections.

Wrong Idea 3: Forget the condom

Fact: It will be a bad idea if you think there is no need to use condoms because it’s anal sex but the truth is that STD’s can be transferred through the anus. You may be at risk of gonorrhea, hepatitis, chlamydia and even HIV. The reason for this is that the lining of the anus is thin, and can break easily if there is dryness, please try to use lube when doing this.

Wrong Idea 4: It can damage you physically

Anything can hurt you, even regular vagina sex depending on how you do it. There is risk of serious injury. If she isn’t wet enough in the vagina, penetrating her without lubrication can cause tear, the exact same thing can as well happen in anal sex.
