Exclusive to males of the species, the noble yet misunderstood prostate gland is a mischievous lump of human tissue that can lead every male, straight or gay, down a yellow-brick road, past the pearly gates, and into a garden of earthly delights. Online sources claim that the prostate gland is either walnut-sized or chestnut-sized—but never both. I will assume that the average male prostate gland is somewhere between the size of a chestnut and walnut. In essence, all male orgasms start with the prostate. And since it teems with nerve endings—even more nerve endings than the penis—it is crucial to male sexual pleasure. This way you can avoid E. Also— trim your goddamned fingernails!

This is the first in a multi-part series from After Hours about anal play. You can see the other posts in the series as they come out here. The main areas you want to be aware of are the anus , which is the gateway to the pleasure zone, the anal canal , and the rectum. You have two anal sphincters: one near your opening, and one further up your cavity, which work together to help push fecal matter out. You have control over your external sphincter, but not the internal one. Men also have a prostate , which is located close to, but not inside of the rectum. The prostate can be stimulated through the rectum. There are nerve endings throughout the entire rectum, but most people find that the prostate and the anus are the most pleasurable areas.

Fingering means entering your own anus or someone else's anus with your finger. It is important to take your time when starting to finger someone and to use enough lube to prevent damage to the tissue. Make one finger moist with lube to prevent damage to both the outside and inside of your anus. Some men use spit when fingering, but unfortunately, spit dries up too quickly. It is better to use lube since it remains slippery for a long time. Massage the outside of your anus with the soft part of your fingertip. Keep your sphincter relaxed. Carefully push your fingertip against the middle of the constrictor muscle until it gives and you can enter. Begin slowly so that the constrictor muscle can relax and you or whoever you are fingering can get used to the feeling.
