Enjoy anal sex? Remember to wear a condom even if you’re in a monogamous (and previously tested negative for STIs) relationship. The bacteria in the bum can cause irritation and infections for the insertive partner.

If you ask any Tom, Dick or Harry what they think gay men do in bed, the reply will probably involve an asshole, but a new study from Indiana University and George Mason University is set to challenge this widespread misconception. Apparently, anal sex is the least ...
Dear Madame X, This is a question of etiquette. My lover has requested that I wear a butt plug all day for him. He would like this to be a normal day. However, I hold a high level position in my company which requires me to attend meetings, often several times a day. While I ...
Dear Madame X, I have been with my lover for two years and we do everything under the sun, but he has never asked me for anal sex. In the past, it has always been the man who has brought it up and doing it has always been a special treat for them. I don’t ...
