What Are the Different Types Of Butt Plugs?
Generally speaking, butt plugs can be divided up into the following categories:
- “Regular” Butt Plugs – Regular butt plugs should have a tapered tip (for easy insertion) a thin neck towards the base, and a flared base that prevents the plug from accidentally slipping into the anus.
- Vibrating Butt Plugs – as the name implies, these are butt plugs that vibrate. Some come with remote controls or apps (in the case of the Lovense Hush 2) while others are controlled by buttons on the toy itself
- Anal Bead Butt Plugs – Some butt plugs like the Beaded Slimline Plug have a general butt plug shape but incorporate anal beads into the design, usually getting larger the further in you go.
- Prostate Massages – While not technically butt plugs, prostate massagers are anal toys designed in a similar shape, so some prostate massagers like the Lelo Hugo and Aneros Helix will be referred to as butt plugs (though that’s not technically correct).
Of course, many anal play toys blur the lines of definition, and many cannot be categorized easily… so always read the description to make sure you know what you’re getting into.
If anal toys don’t seem like your thing, the top blowjob machines might tickle your fancy just right.
4 Tips for Butt Plug Beginners
If you’re not used to anal play (let alone butt plugs) then you might need a little bit of guidance. Here are some quick tips for butt stuff newbies:
- Start Slow Or You’ll Regret It – The anus is NOT like the vagina – it needs time to slowly “warm up”, relax, and expand to bigger things. Start with 1 finger, then 2 fingers, and slowly increase the size of your anal toys as the anus becomes more accustomed to each size.
- Breathe Deep and Relax – Anal stuff is all about relaxation – use deep breathing exercises to try and make things easier (your butt will naturally want to tense up at first)
- Use TONS Of Lube (You’ll Need It) – The anus doesn’t self-lubricate like the vagina does. As a result, we recommend using a ton of lube to make things nice and slippery down there. There are lots of anal lubes on the market, but coconut oil is a personal favorite!
- A Flared Base Is ESSENTIAL – The flared base on the bottom of the best butt plugs is there for a reason – it’s wide enough to stop the plug from being “sucked into you” by accident. DO NOT use toys that are designed for vaginal use in the anus, especially if they don’t have a flared base. No one wants that awkward trip to the ER.
When it comes to butt plugs and anal play, just remember to take it slow, use lots of lube, stop if it hurts, and most importantly… have fun!
