and some women saying they like it, I'm baffled

I have anal sex pretty often with my boyfriend, especially when I'm on my period. I enjoy the stimulation, and If I or my partner is stimulating my clitoris, I can have pretty intense orgasams from it.

There's a risk of poop, sure, but you just make sure you poop and wash your butt before hand. If you're eating a healthy diet, you don't usually have shit in your rectum unless you're about to poop.

It's definitely not for everyone though.

If it works for you, then... but please read what the other poster, MarkTwainiac (spe?) wrote about the risks of anal sex for women.

Young people often feel that they will always be healthy, especially if they live a healthy lifestyle, I know I did. I still feel I'll be able to beat some age-related conditions because I do exercise and eat relatively well - but age gets all of us so please do read Mark Twainiac's (sp?) great research.

BEB - thanks for endorsing & amplifying my points. I know a number of gay men now in their 50s, 60s & 70s who are really regretting the amount of anal penetration of themselves they engaged in during their younger years.

Medical research has shown a direct link between being a recipient of anal penetration in sex and fecal incontinence in both male and females.

Also, since in your post above you mentioned that being the recipient of anal penetration by a penis increased the chance of contracting HIV, I shoud mention that HIV isn't the only issue here. There's considerable scientific evidence that being the recipient of anal penetration increases the likelihood that a person will also contract chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis and herpes - and that females are more susceptible to getting such infections through anal penetration due to differences in anatomy & physiology.

Significantly, TIFs who engage in sex in which they are anally penetrated (by dicks, fists/arms, strap-ons & other objects) have what appear to be pretty high rates of ALL these sexually-transmitted diseases:

Of the transgender women tested, 13.1% tested positive for chlamydia and 12.6% tested positive for gonorrhea at 1 or more anatomic sites, and 14.2% were HIV-infected. Of transgender men tested, 7.7% and 10.5% tested positive for chlamydia and gonorrhea at 1 or more anatomic sites, and 8.3% were HIV-infected.

Yes, TIFs have these diseases at lower rates than TIMs, but at considerably higher rates than the rest of the female population. I can't find exactly corresponding figures for women who don't ID as trans, but I'd be very surprised to find that amongst females who aren't trans-identified 10.5% have chlamydia & gonorrhea - and 8.3% have HIV.

The research I've read says that 10-12 years ago, four percent of girls age 14-19 in the US had chlamydia, and 18% had HPV - but gonorrhea & HIV weren't mentioned in the research - so apparently weren't considered significant enough to mention/include.

However, I can't find research that says what percentage of females overall have each particular STD; instead most of the studies simply say that of the various infections diagnosed at any given time, X number or X percentage were amongst female people.

BTW, LOL, you got the spelling of my user name right. It's just a combo of Twain & maniac, meaning I am a big fan of/nutty about Mr Clemens.
