A member asked:
Can you safely have anal sex with your husband when both you and him are negative for std's?

Anal Sex: Yes. Of course. Anal sex is a common sexual activity in many cultures around the world. Couples often include this in their sexual play. There are no special worries to be concerned with as long as care is taken to prepare the anal sphincter for penetration.

Yes or not...: While anal sex has been fantasized and promoted to maximally heighten sex pleasure by many and even so-called sex experts. In reality, that practice is not the nature has designed to use. Considering the structure and environment of anus/rectum, it's clearly not for intercourse. Besides, many men and women with hpv, herpes, and chlamydia have no their related symptoms or signs. So, who knows?
