Get Pegged: The Ins and Outs of Pegging

Pegging. You may have heard of it, especially if you’re a Marvel Universe fan and have seen the Deadpool movies. But what is it exactly? While it sounds like it could be some new internet fad to replace planking or absolutely nailing someone in your intramural dodgeball league, pegging is actually a sexual act. Pegging is when a woman takes the sexual driver seat and penetrates a man anally using a strap-on dildo. Let’s face it, you’re here, curiosity got ya. Might as well find out why your back nine is actually prime real estate.

Look, we get it. Up until now, your back door has only had an exit sign. But believe it or not, an anal orgasm can be even more intense and pleasurable than a regular one. Why is that? Well, we have all heard about a woman’s G-Spot. Less of us have found it. Well, a man’s G-Spot can be reached via prostate stimulation techniques through a small, walnut-sized gland called the prostate. The P-Spot, if you will. Even if you don’t hit your prostate, your body has more nerve endings down there than you think, so it is worth the test drive.

Ok, Tim Allen fans, it’s Tool Time. The good news is the starter pack for pegging is simpler and much cheaper than that $900 power drill you’ve been eyeing since Black Friday. After you and your partner are both on board to try pegging, here is what you’ll need:

The Strap-On

Sounds a bit like a supervillain, but a strap-on is simply a dildo and a harness combo. They can be bought together, or you can pick out each part separately. We recommend choosing the right strap-on for your needs. It’s like customizing and detailing your own dream car. The “driver” (your wife, girlfriend, etc.) gets to pick a harness that is comfortable for them, while you, the “passenger,” pick a size you’re cool with.

Lube, Lube, and More Lube

The WD-40 of the situation. The best lubes for anal play are water-based options, like Popstar Play, which helps reduce friction and enhance comfort. Trust us—more lube is always better.

Now that your pegging tool belt is situated, let's get started. Anal play preparation is key, so treat pegging like you’re driving stick again for the first time: take it slow, steady, and have patience. Foreplay is a must (not that we need to sell you on that). Start with some kissing, touching, and, of course, oral. Then, start with a little batting practice by having your partner use a well-lubed finger. When it’s game time, have your partner apply lube generously (seriously, be generous) to the dildo and start slow.

Pegging Positions for Beginners

Missionary, while vanilla, is the best bet for beginners. It allows easy access, and you can both laugh nervously while holding eye contact. Other pegging positions for beginners include doggy style (for deeper penetration) and spooning (for a more relaxed vibe). Remember, you’re a team here. Communication during anal sex is crucial, so keep the conversation going and the lube flowing.

Congratulations, you did it! Now what? Talk about it. Every team debriefs after a big game. Check-in with your partner to see what you liked, what you didn’t like, and what you’d like to change for next time. Aftercare following pegging is essential—whether that means cuddling, hydrating, or just chilling with some Netflix. Be ready for full-on self-care mode. Have a drink at the ready on the nightstand, and throw on reruns of The Office for some post-game cool down.

If anything, pegging could be the thing that breaks up your regular sex routine and keeps things interesting in your relationship. After all, routines are for Monday mornings, not the sack. Just remember to lubricate, communicate, fornicate, and don’t hate on new experiences!
