Why are large butt plugs a popular choice of sex toy?
Anal sex is an incredibly popular method of intercourse between both hay and heterosexual couples alike. And it’s not even just couples who want to embark on an stretching adventure. Many men and women are starting to realise the sheer levels of pleasure that a steady progression from beginner to larger anal toys can provide.

Beginners guide to buying a large butt plug
The anus is a sensitive part of the human anatomy, and whilst it’s arguably more pleasurable for males (due to the location of the g-spot), there’s no denying that anal can be extremely fun for all genders.
But, using a large plug is not something I’d recommend jumping into (or on to) straight away. There are quite a few things that I want to cover here, and what I wish I had known prior to beginning my stretching journey.
Who large butt plugs are recommended for
If you’re completely new to this type of toy, then before you read on you might want to read our guide to the butt plug that completely answers exactly what this toy does, and what it is used for.
If you’re reading a guide about large plugs, then I’m going to assume you already know what they are and what they are for. However, I just want to be clear that large plugs should not be used by beginners. And, even when used by seasoned anal veterans, plenty of lubricant should be used and you should still use smaller toys to work-up to your larger plug.
The dos and don’ts of stretching
So, a plug is literally made to stretch you. And we’ve already got our dedicated guide to stretching so I’m not going to repeat things here but what I will say is:
- Ensure you have a toy with a flared base, so that there’s no unfortunate accidents of it getting ‘stuck’
- Weighted plugs will generally provide.a greater sense of where the plug is it all times, so generally are recommended for people new to larger anal toys
- If using an inflatable plug, pump slowly and remember that it is inflated before you try to pull it out (again, do this slowly)
- Be liberal with your lube use
- Don’t get frustrated and try to force anything. Stretching takes times, and your anus needs time to get used to a new size
Large Butt Plug Types & Materials
My favourite types, and those that you will generally see in most reputable stores, are:
- Weighted Plugs
- Inflatable
- Tunnel Plugs
- Ball Plugs
- Vibrating
- Realistic / Ridged
Generally you’ll be looking at a versatile silicone construct that will be able to cope with your body weight and not fall apart from sustained use. And, what use would an anal toy be if it couldn’t withstand a pounding?
