    I’m not opposed to the idea but it doesn’t seem like the kind of thing you can just try one time. Isn’t there some kind of preparation phase to be able to handle …“stuff”?

      The three most important things, are

      1. A good wash, and optionally a little bit of douching (extra fancy guide) if you want to push it

      2. Lube. However much you think you need, more than that. Simple oils can work fine. Soap is horrible. Store bought water lube is best.

      3. Having fun, a relaxed exploratory afternoon 😊

        I personally prefer silicone-based lube for back door play. Lasts a LOT longer, doesn’t get sticky (can get dry, but nowhere near as quickly as water-based, in which case, just apply more lube,) and the overall glide just feels better imo. Clean-up is a little bit more intensive. Just a light scrub with soap and warm water, instead of a quick rinse or wipe. Toy play is a good warm-up. Just make sure your toy is specifically compatible with silicone-based lube or else you risk major problems.
