Question 6

Yes and no: The anus is not made for sex, it does not produce any natural lubrication.

Also the anus is very susceptible to catching stds, so make sure your partner does not have any.

Question 9

is anal sex unhealthy?

Accepted Answer

Possibly....: I would always suggest the male wear a condom, or risk serious prostatitis. And also to prevent hpv, herpes, and other stds being transmitted.

If the female either has pain and discomfort and does not enjoy it, then the activity should be removed!
