What are anal vibrators?
Anal vibrators, also known as prostate massagers, are toys specifically designed to be inserted into – you guessed it – your butt. They typically feature a curvature that is designed to stimulate the prostate gland. They feature motors that vibrate and stimulate different erogenous zones, most typically the prostate gland and the perineum (taint).
Are anal vibrators the same as anal plugs?
Not exactly. While you do stick both up your butt, anal vibrators are designed in a way that can stimulate the prostate. Some anal vibrators are designed to sit in place, similar to an anal plug. Whereas some anal vibrators are more like a dildo and can be slid in and out. This has led to some people using these terms interchangeably.
These toys differ to male masturbators which are typically a sleeve that you insert the penis into. These have often been classified as “straight” toys whereas anal toys such as butt plugs have often been characterized as gay sex toys. However, these distinctions are now largely seen as irrelevant and sex toys are non-sexuality specific.
Why should you try anal vibrators?
For guys, the biggest reason is the mythical prostate orgasm. The male prostate is considered to be the male G-spot, sometimes called the p-spot This is a type of orgasm that results from stimulating the highly sensitive prostate gland. While this can be achieved using your fingers it’s much easier to achieve using an anal vibrator, which is specifically designed to target the right area. Anal vibrators can also be fun to use together as a couple, during foreplay or during sex to heighten sensation.

Anal vibrators: Beginner’s guide
Using an anal plug for the first time may seem a little intimidating, but these quick tips will ensure your first time goes smoothly.
- Get the right toy for you – When looking for the best anal vibrator for you, you want to find one that is not too wide – as your butt is not used to this stimulation yet. The Vector+ by WeVibe is one of the best anal vibrators for beginners. This remote control butt plug-style vibrator allows you to control the intensity of the vibrations as both the perineum and the prostate are for maximum pleasure.
- Go to the bathroom/clean — let’s not get gross here. But yes number two. This helps ensure the anus is fully clean during play. Take a shower and make sure to clean the anal entrance thoroughly. Use mild soap. Try to clean slightly inside, use a finger about an inch inside the entrance. Ensure your fingers are clean as well.
- Try a finger first — before entering with the toy, try lubing up a finger and gently sliding it inside. Your finger is significantly smaller than the anal vibrator, so it helps the anus get used to the feeling.
- Lube up the anal vibrator — Use a water-based lube (silicone-based lube may damage your toy) and use plenty of it. This will reduce any friction and allow the toy to enter more easily.
- Massage the opening — before you push the toy all the way in, massage and stimulate the anal open with the toy. As you begin to feel more comfortable, slide the anal plug further in. You will know when it is in as far as it should be because you will feel a slight decrease in pressure and the toy will sit in the right place naturally.
- Leave it in for as long as you feel comfortable — You can leave the anal plug in during masturbation and sex, but only as long as you feel comfortable. If you feel any discomfort, stop and take it out.
- (When using with a partner) Be gentle — if you have already tried the anal vibrator on yourself, you will know how it feels, so when entering or removing the toy remember to be very gentle.
