You know that feeling when a good bassline reverberates through your body? This position is kinda like that, except the rhythm comes from deep vibrations to your derriere. Let the bass move you from tip to tail as you sink into this solo masturbation position.
How?
Get your fours on the floor and reach one hand around to your rear. Stroke your butt cheeks, inner thighs, and anal area. As you get close to your anus, slick your fingers with lube. Start rubbing small circular motions around your perineum – that's the soft patch of skin between your anus and your genitals, a.k.a “the gooch”.
If you like, you can grab a long-handled vibrator like a wand. Tease your lower back, butt cheeks, and inner thighs with the vibrations. Rest the stimulation head on your perineum or on the entrance to your anus (don’t insert your toy unless it’s designed specifically for this). Let the vibrations rumble through your lower body, slowly turn up the intensity, and feel your arousal build.
Expert tip: Trim your nails and clean under them with a nail brush before you masturbate your anus (or vagina for that matter). This helps protect you from irritations and infections.
Explore deep, full body pleasure
Why?
If you put all the emotional factors of novelty and taboo aside, there’s a simple physiological reason that anal stimulation can feel so good. It fires up the same nerve pathways that send messages of arousal or pleasure from your penis or vagina to your brain.
It can also indirectly stimulate those sexual structures inside your body, especially if you choose to insert a finger or anal sex toy with a flared base, applying pressure toward your belly.
That’s why, no matter your gender or background, it can feel deeply, intensely pleasurable to touch, stretch, press, or vibrate your anus and perineum.
Make it even better
Let’s talk lube. It’s essential for anal play, because it’s easy to tear the delicate skin in this area, which could lead to an infection. A water-based lube is best if you’re using silicone or soft plastic sex toys, as other kinds can degrade the material of your toy. It helps the toy glide smoothly over your skin, without tearing.
Once you’ve got lube sorted, the next way to intensify your pleasure is to combine your anal massage with other kinds of stimulation. You can choose a hands-free anal toy like a butt plug – or a prostate massager if you have a penis. That way, you can use your fingers to stroke your penis or clitoris while the toy vibrates from behind.
Make it even easier
You don’t need to be on all fours! Try lying on your front with a sex wedge under your hips – or skip the wedge and simply raise one knee until it’s level with your hips. This will help pop your butt and give you an easy angle to reach around.
Choose a vibrating butt plug if you have limited upper body mobility. That way, you can slide the toy in, switch it on, and rest your arms instead of constantly reaching behind you.
Make it even kinkier
Rather than going straight into masturbating your vulva or penis while playing with your behind, let’s build anticipation. Even solo play can be a little kinky if you want it to be.
Tell yourself you don’t deserve to come until you’ve really worked on that booty. Make this harder by using a pussy pump or penis pump to get the blood rushing to your genitals, making you feel highly sensitive and aroused.
Cheat your own rules by pressing your pelvis against a pillow, your palm, or a grinding toy like the Lovehoney Remote Control Pleasure Pad (don’t forget to check out how cute your butt looks in the harness). Naughty brat!
For those with a penis, there’s the option to trap yourself inside a cock cage to deny any genital touching. For some, this leads to a deeper, longer-lasting climax (known as a prostate orgasm).
