There are two types of people in the world: those who have dipped their toes (so to speak) into the world of anal play. And those who have not - yet.
If you fall into the former, you're probably well aware of all of the new experiences, sensations and feelings that come from branching out. And, if you fall into the latter category, we've pulled together some of the best products out there to encourage you to join the gang.
Much like all sex toys, butt plugs aren't restricted to just one make or model. There are hundreds of different shapes, sizes, colours and styles out there designed to please all kinds of people, no matter their preferences.
Some butt plugs prefer to keep things simple, with a traditional shape that does the job with no bells or whistles necessary. Others take things one step further, incorporating inflatable elements, twists and turns, vibrating mechanisms or unusual shapes designed to take your pleasure up a notch...and then some.
If you haven't yet entered the world of butt plugs, you'll probably want to start out with something small and unintimidating. As your experience grows, you can venture into larger products that offer a heightened experience. If you're not sure where to start, it's worth looking into sets or multi-packs, which bring together different butt plugs to give you the opportunity to sample a few and see what feels the best.
Just remember: clean each toy after it's been used, especially if it'll then be used by someone else.
We've rounded up all of the best butt plugs.
