So you want to get down and dirty with some backdoor action but aren’t sure about the risks? While anal sex is still considered to be an exotic and taboo sexual activity, for many couples, it is also considered to be a safer alternative to traditional vaginal sex. Is this assumption correct? Let’s look at some of the risks associated with anal sex.The following health risks can affect heterosexual or homosexual couples:•    HIV/AIDS – Studies show that HIV can be transmitted anally more than any other sexual act, especially for the receiving partner.•    HPV (Human papilloma virus) – These anal warts are not only painful and a nuisance, but can increase chances of anal cancer.•    Hepatitis A – Oral/anal contact can spread this viral infection. Jaundice and stomach pain may follow.•    Hepatitis C – It’s rare that this can result from anal sex, but it’s possible, and could lead to fatal liver disease.•    E. Coli: Oral/anal contact can spread this infection which can cause gastroenteritis and a serious kidney infection.•    Pregnancy – This won’t happen with a homosexual couple, obviously, and it is extremely rare that semen will drip into the vagina far enough to cause a pregnancy…but better safe than sorry!Here are some ways you can enjoy anal sex while reducing risk of disease or pregnancy:•    Always use a condom, even if you’re in a monogamous relationship. Certain infections (like from E. Coli) have nothing to do with exclusivity, but rather with germs. Using lots of water-based lube with help prevent condom breakage.•    Cleanliness is key. Clean the anal area and make sure you empty your bowel before engaging in anal sex.•    The one receiving the penetration should make sure that he or she is relaxed. If you tense up, you could tear your sphincter muscles…OUCH!•    Start off slow, by inserting a lubed up finger or two first, before going all the way with your penis.Most importantly, make sure you’re both ready to embark on this sexually-charged, over the edge, primal act. Be safe and have fun!
