A year in lockdown has inspired all sorts of creative outlets for horniness : People are having more phone sex , snapping artful nudes , and investing in vibrators . So if you’ve always been curious about butt plugs, it’s never too late to explore new horizons. Experts agree that a butt plug can enhance your sex life solo or with a partner, as long as you’re patient and prepare properly.
The most important rule is to go slowly. “It’s important to start small and use a lot of water-based lube (silicone can degrade your toys) so you’re not damaging anything,” says Gigi Engle, certified sexologist and author of All the F*cking Mistakes: A Guide to Sex, Love, and Life . “People think that because they can handle a big penis or dildo in other parts of their bodies that they can handle anything, but that’s not true.”
Whether you’re new to anal penetration or not, it’s important to remember that it should never be painful. “Getting turned on first will help you relax,” says queer sex writer and influencer Molly-Margaret Johnson . “Masturbate or use a vibrator or your fingers to warm up your asshole.” She also recommends romancing yourself with ambience for deeper relaxation. “Have a glass of wine, smoke a little, light a candle, and turn on some sexy music.”
Ty Mitchell , a gay adult entertainer and writer also known as “ Probottom ,” explains why butt plugs are so pleasurable. “It’s a sensation of fullness and a feeling of pressure that permeates the whole pelvic area that’s intense and good,” says Mitchell. “You just have to lean into it with a little bit of submission.” And if you’re hesitant about making a mess, don’t worry. “Sex is inherently messy, whether it’s emotionally messy or physically messy, and that’s what makes it amazing,” says Johnson. “Whether it’s shitting, squirting, sweating, cumming, or whatever, it’s just part of the deal.”
Rounding out our panel of experts is Em Odesser , sex educator and writer, and Liara Roux , sex worker, organizer, and writer. Keep reading to see what they recommend as their favorites. And remember: Always make sure to wash your toys and your hands .
“Its small, minimalist design makes it a nonthreatening beginner’s option, soothing nervous newbies,” says Roux. “The smooth silicone construction makes it easy to slip in and out painlessly, and the vibration is a pleasant sensation — perfect for anyone who wants to explore prostate play for the first time, or anyone who has been burned in the past and wants something that won’t hurt!”
For $150, this set includes three toys, an instruction guide, an enema, and a “lube launcher.” “I’m not the most experienced with backdoor play, but b-Vibe’s set seems to cater to that exact situation,” says Odesser. “For the price of one expensive vibrator, you get a pretty good range of toys, which means you can explore with some flexibility.”
Plugs are also a way to spice up your nudes , as Odesser suggests. “I love the idea of sending a cheeky nude (he-he) with a plug in, especially as so much of our dating lives is relegated to the online world. A lot of indie shops sell cute and affordable ones.”
Another option for taking your nudes to the next level, but with an artisanal twist. “It’s glass, which means you can also engage in some temperature play,” says Odesser.
Available in three different sizes, this trainer set is perfect for starting out and “to get ready for larger ones,” Engle says.
This beginner trio of nightstand eye candy makes for a cute gift for a lover or yourself. “They’re all small and great for starters. Plus, the colors and shapes make the endeavor that much more fun,” says Johnson.
“This one has beads around the neck of it that simulate rimming,” says Mitchell. Combining a vibrator with anal play, it engages everything in that erogenous zone.
This one is teeny-tiny and not intimidating. “It’s made by Tango — a queer, Brooklyn-based company,” Johnson adds.
This vibrating toy is noticeably more pointy at the tip. “You can use it as a clitoral vibrator for focused stimulation as well, but make sure the toy is thoroughly sterilized,” says Engle.
With three ridges for more varied play, Engle says it “gives you room for experimentation, since you don’t have to put the whole thing in. You can experiment with how much feels good.”
Anal beads are part of a more involved process, making this hybrid more fit for advanced users. “What makes it feel really good is when you’re removing it one step at a time,” says Engle.
Once you’re familiar with what you can handle, a custom piece has tons of possibilities. “Hedonic Glass makes the prettiest glass butt plugs I’ve seen,” says Roux. “They’re less comfortable than silicone but very easy to clean. Each butt plug is handblown to your specifications, so whether you want something small and cute or an option that can give you a bit of a stretch, they’ve got you covered.”
Square Peg Toys is the place to go when you simply cannot get enough. “They have toys large enough to satisfy the most insatiable booty holes,” says Roux. “Their famous double fist plug will give such overwhelming stretch and sense of fullness that even the brattiest bottom will have to admit that they can’t possibly fit any more.”
Like the G-spot, the prostate can be a pleasure center if you reach it right. With this toy’s curved shape, it’ll hit that sweet spot. Engle also says that “it presses on the perineum, which adds extra stimulation.”
“This daddy is sexy, and its weight alone will turn you on,” Johnson says. “This heavy plug is perfect for temperature play.” Try running it under warm water for some extra heat.
“This is the Cadillac of butt toys,” claims Engle — a luxury item filled with fancy features.
For those with one, penis rings make erections stronger and last longer. Engle assures that this toy is “not actually scary.”

Interested in some booty action? We gotchu.
If you're interested in exploring anal play (whether it’s anal foreplay , anal sex , or anything in between), then butt plugs are the best way to get familiar with your behind. Experimenting with butt plugs is a great way to test the waters of booty play before having penetrative anal sex with a partner, and they’re also a great way to experience anal play for anyone who finds anal sex to be ~too much~. The best butt plugs for beginners tend to be smaller and designed for easy insertion and removal, and if you're not sure where to get started, then we're here to help.
According to Dr. Donna Oriowo , LICSW, M.ED, owner and lead therapist at AnnodRight , anyone can benefit from giving butt stuff a try—including those with vaginas. "With the pudendal nerve, direct stimulation to the anus can also stimulate the vagina," she tells Cosmo . "Plus, we know that with all those nerve endings in the anus, only 20 percent of them are in active use to keep things working. The other 80 percent is all about sensation." And there's only one way to unlock that 80 percent: with experimentation and touch.
Certified sex therapist Shadeen Francis , LMFT, CST, agrees, adding, "Anal plugs stimulate the sensitive nerve endings inside the anus, and can lead to powerful orgasms. Some plugs feel good for the pressure of fullness, some arc towards the prostate in people who have them (or the A-spot for people with vulvas), and some even pulse or vibrate!" What's not to like??
First things first: Lube is your friend, and we C-A-N-N-O-T emphasize that enough. "Before you grab the butt plug, though, you have to remember that, unlike the vagina, the anus is not self-lubricating," says Dr. Oriowo. "This means you have to use lube. Don’t be shy with it, either—use just a bit more than you think is enough. Better to have more lube than less."
The type of lube you use matters, too. "Always read your ingredients list, and never put anything in any hole that isn't safe to go in your mouth," Francis adds. "As a tip for your lube choice, think about what you might like to do in your butt play session. Silicone lube is long-lasting but can be hard to clean and can't be used with silicone toys. Water-based lube is friendly for everyone, but you will need to reapply. Oil-based lubes give a lot of slip but, depending on the ingredients, can contain allergens (e.g., coconut oil-based lubes are a no-go if you have a nut allergy) and will absolutely stain your bedsheets."
And ofc, you want to start small and work your way up. As Francis points out, the tissues of the anus are delicate and sensitive, so be gentle with yourself, bb. "If—after exploring stimulation of the sensitive opening from the outside—you'd like to try penetration, start small," she says. "Always start smaller than you think: a little finger perhaps, or a narrow toy (with a flared base, of course). You can always go up in size as smaller toys become more comfortable. Even if over time you fancy yourself a bit of a size-slut, look for toys that start narrow and gradually increase in size to make insertion more comfortable."
According to Francis, beginners should look for butt plugs "with a flared base to prevent the risk of the toy getting pulled into your anal canal and lodged inside." And just like with all sex toys , you should opt for a plug that's made with non-porous, body-safe materials. As Francis tells us, "You have many options, such as silicone (which comes in many densities so you can choose between soft and firm toys), glass (which can give you a cool visual if you're into seeing all the details), porcelain (for a light but firm toy), and metal (for added weight and temperature play)."
If you’re interested in sampling the sensations a butt plug can provide—including some vibin' options (!)—then take a peek at this list (very generously narrowed down to our fave plugs) and find the one that speaks to you.
Perhaps the least intimidating butt plug around: this slim, tapered bb from Unbound, which is only a little over an inch in diameter and features 4.25 inches of insertable length, making it an ideal pick for beginners.
Made by Maude, this no-frills butt plug is sleek, teeny-tiny, and made with all booties in mind. It's the perfect non-intimidatin
