Shhhh... That is a TABOO!

Prostate massage has a rich and intriguing history, once considered an exclusive practice among the elite of ancient China. In the Imperial Harem, a prestigious group of women meticulously selected to ensure the continuation of the Emperor’s lineage, this technique was held in high regard. Embraced by royalty and scholars alike, it was part of a broader tradition aimed at enhancing health and vitality. This ancient practice, steeped in historical significance, reflects the era’s sophisticated approach to wellness and personal care.

In ancient China, members of the Imperial Harem sought the wisdom of Tantric Masters to enhance their intimate experiences and improve their chances of bearing heirs for the Emperor. These revered masters introduced them to a profound concept: a specific area within the Emperor’s body that, when stimulated, could unlock a new realm of vitality and pleasure. This pivotal area was identified as the prostate, a key element in their approach to wellness and intimacy.

Key Benefits of Prostate Massage:

1. Enhance sexual enjoyment and improve erections.

2. Remove the accumulation of prostatic fluid in the prostate gland.

3. Support a healthy prostate, enabling it to function properly.

4. Relieves pain and discomfort of an inflamed prostate.

5. Help prevent prostate cancer.

Would you risk incarceration for the sake of pursuing personal pleasure? Around the world, 72 countries have laws regulating anal sex, a majority of which are in societies with strong religious influences. While this might seem significant, it’s worth noting that the number was 92 in 2006, indicating a growing trend towards greater acceptance of anal sex and related pleasures. Many Asian nations have never enacted such laws, and France has not had anti-sodomy legislation since 1791.

The topic of anal pleasure often provokes strong reactions due to a range of factors. For many, deeply ingrained religious beliefs and societal norms play a significant role in shaping perceptions, with some viewing the area associated with anal pleasure as inherently unclean. Additionally, cultural attitudes may link anal pleasure with perceived loss of masculinity and power, as penetration is sometimes seen as a “feminine” experience, especially when compared to more traditionally recognized forms of sexual activity. These factors contribute to the ongoing taboo surrounding anal pleasure.

These perceptions often stem from a combination of religious and cultural influences. Many religions traditionally emphasize sexual activity strictly for procreation, which casts non-procreative acts, like anal pleasure, as taboo. Additionally, inadequate sexual education in schools exacerbates misunderstandings. Without comprehensive information on sexual wellness, young people rely on what they hear from parents, religious figures, and peers. As a result, they may come to view the rectum as inherently dirty or inappropriate, based on limited and often negative information. To help destigmatize anal pleasure, people need to accept and love all of their body parts.  

The prostate gland is situated within the rectum, towards the front of a man’s body, and is roughly the size of a walnut. Its primary function is to produce fluid that nourishes and protects sperm. However, if not maintained properly, it can accumulate stagnant semen, potentially leading to various health issues.

How does Prostate stimulation affect orgasm?

Incorporating prostate massage into solo and partner sexual activities not only promotes prostate health, but also offers a unique and pleasurable orgasmic experience. The prostate, also known as the male G-spot, can provide intense orgasms and enhanced sexual performance. By massaging this power point near the perineum, located in the root chakra, men can experience multiple orgasms and improve their overall sex life.

Locating Your Prostate:

Your prostate is nestled inside your rectum towards the front. When you're feeling frisky, it fills with fluid, making it easier to locate. To get things going, try some "come hither" movements with your or your partner's finger, also known as "milking" to release built-up semen.

How To:

"Come Hither" Motions Have you tried using a Trac Ball as a laptop mouse? Have you ever signaled a bartender to "come here"? This involves using your primary pointing finger to slowly press and rub back, resulting in a one-finger massage on your or your partner's prostate gland. This technique is also commonly used by women for G-spot massage. Prostate Massagers are specially designed to accurately stimulate the prostate, taking out the guesswork. Some are even created by medical professionals.

Learn how to properly massage your prostate with or without a prostate toy - the age-old question answered. Curious about potential discomfort?

Don't be! Just follow these simple tips on lubrication, positioning, and relaxation for a pain-free experience.

1. Choose a quality lubricant and use plenty of it! The anal canal is not self-lubricating, so using lubrication is essential for both prostate toys and fingers. Skipping it could result in damage to your sensitive area. Silicone lubricants are often recommended for anal products because they have a smoother texture and longer lasting formula. However, since the anal canal can absorb chemicals into the bloodstream, I suggest using natural, water-based lubricants with fewer chemicals and easier clean-up. Ultimately, the choice of lubricant is a personal one, but it's worth taking the time to familiarize yourself with different options.

2. To get the most out of your experience, try positioning yourself on your side in a slight fetal position. In this position, your fingers or prostate toy will naturally match the curve of your body and provide the best sensation. Remember to take your time and go slow, taking deep breaths and easing your finger or toy into your rectum. It may help to push out your rectum as if you're on the toilet, and always make sure your fingernails are trimmed for safety. Don't force anything, just relax and go with the flow. You may feel a slight suction as your finger or toy enters, which is normal. And remember, for safe anal play, always use toys with flare bases for a secure grip. So go ahead, have fun and enjoy the ride!

3. Chill: Don't forget to inhale. Chill and let your body get used to the sensation of your finger or toy inside of you.

4. Prostate Stimulation (aka Prostate Stroking) When you explore the front of your body with your finger inside your prostate, you'll find your walnut-shaped gland, which is delightfully soft and spongy. If you're using a prostate toy, the massager is designed to press against your prostate. With your finger inserted, the easiest way to stimulate your prostate is to squeeze your pubococcygeal (PC) muscle, the one that both men and women have to support their pelvic organs – the urethra, bladder, and bowel. These are the muscles you tighten to make your penis "bounce." As you squeeze and release your PC muscles, your finger on your prostate gland will naturally massage it. For an extra boost, try the "come hither" massage mentioned earlier. If you're using a prostate toy, you can also gently push forward for manual stimulation of your prostate. Just remember to keep breathing! If using a prostate toy, the product will automatically massage your prostate as you squeeze and release your PC muscles.

Don't worry, it might feel awkward at first, but that's totally normal. It may take a few attempts, but the end goal is a prostate orgasm that will clear out any old semen.

5. The process of prostate massage may take a few tries before yielding results. As it becomes a regular part of your health routine, you'll experience increased pleasure and improved visual quality of stagnant semen. Unlike regular ejaculation, a prostate orgasm results in semen flowing rather than squirting out. To get the most benefits, it is recommended to massage your prostate 2-3 times a week once you're comfortable with it. These health benefits will also improve your sexual life, resulting in longer and more intense ejaculatory orgasms. Successful prostate massage may result in thicker and cloudier sperm, as well as a slower and more gradual release from the tip of the penis, which is completely normal.

Massage your prostate for better health and a stronger pelvic floor. Studies suggest that regularly milking the prostate and ejaculating frequently can reduce the risk of prostate cancer. Don't shy away from self-care for your prostate, it's important!

Is your physician aware of your prostate?

During a digital rectal exam, doctors assess the size and state of the prostate gland in male patients. Prostatitis is the clinical term for an enlarged prostate. Interestingly, medical professionals typically only receive one day of training in sexual health during their education, so their understanding of prostate massage and anal pleasure is limited. With Baby Boomers aging and receiving more physical exams including prostate exams, the medical community is becoming more aware of prostate health. As a result, men are seeking ways to decrease the size of their prostates, leading them to discover the benefits of prostate massage.

Wondering what a butt plug is and how to use it?

It's all about stimulating the sensitive nerves in the anal region for solo pleasure or to spice up sexual play. While prostate plugs are more specific in design, butt plugs come in all shapes and sizes. Just like inserting a prostate massager, make sure your butt plug has a flange or ring at the base - trust me, you don't want it to get sucked any further into your body. And who knows, maybe you'll be one of those people who wear a butt plug all day for that extra fullness and pleasure. Something to think about as you go about your daily activities.

Interested in trying something new with your partner? How about introducing prostate massage?

This unique form of intimacy offers both physical and emotional benefits. According to the American Cancer Society, 1 in 9 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. As a fun and quirky way to add excitement to your sex life, why not try a prostate massage and potentially even save your partner's life? Plus, using coconut oil as a lubricant can enhance the experience even more. Just make sure to avoid using it with latex condoms.

In conclusion, addressing prostate health and challenging outdated taboos is essential. Embracing a proactive approach to prostate issues and seeking early solutions can help prevent the progression of conditions and avoid unwanted symptoms. Keeping an open mind about prostate care is crucial for maintaining overall well-being and health.
