Bondage sex play is a whole new world with extreme opportunities to explore different and new pleasurable sensations with your pegged partner. Have you ever been pegged? Well, bondage play and pegging go hand in hand. The practice has been around for decades, but getting involved comes with uncharted territory of acquiring the necessary restraint kits and the know-how. With that in mind, we read on to explore this complete guide to pegging for beginners or being pegged for the first time.

Pegging is never actually gay, contrary to what most people think. But its history ties it to gay roots. The name peg was first brought to the limelight by Dan Savage from the Savage Love Column, and it describes pegging as heterosexual females fucking heterosexual males in the anus. Besides, some cultures referred to boy prostitutes as peg boys. 

This term stuck in the Savage Love Community despite being brushed off by Savage. Surprisingly, it found its way to mainstream usage and is misunderstood to date. Today, pegging can be used to describe anyone fucking any gender in the anus with plugs or dildos. Regardless of the peg, here are the things you need before attempting to explore this experience.

Tips For Pegging

Want to peg your partner for some extreme anal pleasures and a mind-blowing orgasmic experience? Well, ensure you have the following in your collection.

Dildo

Dildos are one of the most common penetrative toys that serve numerous functions. Unlike other sex toys, it doesn't revolve, vibrate or offer motorized stimulation. Dildos are made to mimic the real penis. It has varying colors, girth, veins, and length. When using a dildo for pegging, you can have seamless thrusts that guarantees your partner a sensational pegging experience.

A Vibrator

Vibrators are penetrative toys that revolve and offer motorized stimulation via their powerful vibrations. They are in various sizes, colors, shapes, and vibrations speed. Therefore, consider the stimulation type you would desire before using a vibrator for pegging.

Strap-On

Strap-ons are an essential accessory when trying out pegging sex. If you feel like introducing a strap-on for pegging sex, consider going for an adjustable and elastic one for a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Moreover, you can go for either an elastic harness that will fit different sizes of toys or buy a complete harness and toy. With the numerous options in the market, you can go for the strap-ons that offer double penetrations if you are looking for extreme pegging pleasures.

Lube

The lubes you choose for your pegging experience are as essential as the pegging accessories you buy. Unlike the vagina, the anus doesn't produce natural lubricant, which is why you have to ensure you buy the right lube to go along. Consider a sex lubricant that is compatible with your strap-on dildo. The different types of lubes include water, silicone, natural, and oil-based lubricants.

Depending on your sex toys’ material, the right anal lube should be thick to allow easy and comfortable insertion during pegging. If you want the best experience with your lubes, consider purchasing a water-based sex lubricant because it is compatible with various sex toys.

Pegging for Beginners

Here are the perfect tricks you can focus on on your pegging debut to make the experience as memorable and pleasurable as possible:

Foreplay

Foreplay plays a crucial role in tuning your partner for erotic anal play. Before pegging your partner, consider starting with foreplay for relaxation, muscle, and model tuning. This will help increase the sensational level for an extreme pegging experience. Besides, you can consider anal-fingering or rimming to prepare your partner for penetration.

Use plenty of Lube

Sufficient anal lubrication is necessary because, unlike the vagina, the anus lacks internal lubrication. Buy lubricants that are compatible with your toys. Once you have the right sex lube, apply it around your anal canal to help reduce unwanted friction. Ensure you apply the lube on the toy and your partner’s anus to improve penetration.

Go Slow

Pegging for the first time requires you to take things slow and adjust as you go along on the road to perfection. Going slow will always make your partner feel comfortable and relaxed and perhaps enhance their interest in the pegging game.

Have a Safe Word

For an enjoyable pegging experience, consider using safe words recommended for sexual activities. Talk it out with your partner, establish the ground rules, and settle for the safe words before getting started with the pegging game.

Mind Your Thrust

Does your partner like it slow or faster? These are aspects to take into account when pegging or being pegged for the first time. How you penetrate your partner matters a lot when it comes to stimulation levels. Certain depths, motions, and angles barely feel great, but others can do the magic, and it would be best to communicate for clarity of deed.

Prioritize Aftercare

This helps in growing or increasing trust in a relationship. Also, it increases intimacy for a better experience next time. Consider connecting with your partner after pegging and make them feel special.
