What Is Rimming?
We all have different erogenous zones and things that excite us. Being attracted to butts isn’t unheard of. In fact, many people report being excited by this part of our bodies. Now, there are different ways of satisfying your attraction to butts, and one of them is rimming.
Sexual rimming is any kind of anal stimulation given by a partner. More specifically, consider it anal-oral sex because it involves kissing, licking, etc. The reason why people do this is for mutual pleasure. It’s easy to think there’s nothing in it for you if you’re the partner doing the rimming. However, there’s pleasure to be had on both ends.
To the giving partners, the mere thought of being so close to someone’s anus is enough to arouse them. Not only that, but the fact that they’re pleasing their partners can be arousing too. So, the reasons why people participate in this sexual act are plentiful, and they’re not lacking satisfaction.
Is Sexual Rimming Safe?
One of the facts about sexual rimming people are the most interested to know is whether it’s safe. The anus isn’t really the cleanest of places when you think about it. This thought can especially haunt you if you’re planning to put your mouth or tongue anywhere near it. In fact, this is what bothers most people and is the reason why they don’t even want to try rimming.
However, this sexual activity can be completely safe. All it needs is a bit of preparation. The receiving partner needs to do thorough anal cleaning, and the best way to do it is with an enema. Enemas inject water into your anus, thus cleaning it better than you ever could while showering.
This kind of deep clean ensures there’s no dirt or bacteria residue left, so you’re safe to enjoy sexual rimming no matter which end you’re on.
How Do You Get Pleasure From Rimming?
The way you get pleasure from rimming is pretty simple. The anus is a hot spot for many people, so much so that they prefer anal sex over any other. Even though you’re not jumping into anal sex, rimming is still a form of stimulation.
The anus is riddled with nerve endings, and stimulating them is what makes us feel pleasure. Of course, it’s not the same for all people because some don’t get anything from this kind of stimulation. However, you’ve hit the jackpot if your partner is into any kind of anal play.
Even though the receiving partner is the one getting the most pleasure, the person providing stimulations isn’t left high and dry. The facts are that the giving partners aren’t getting physical stimulation or pleasure from rimming. However, it’s the mental stimulation that can drive them wild.
Sexual Rimming and Pygophilia: Are They Similar?
Sexual Rimming and Pygophilia: Are They Similar?Now, let’s talk about pygophilia. We bet that many people haven’t even heard of that term, but the definition says it’s the attraction to the buttocks. When you dive deeper into the meaning, some definitions say it’s a distinct attraction to women’s buttocks. We’ll stick to the basic definition for the purpose of discussing differences.
It’s no secret that people with pygophilia would definitely enjoy providing sexual rimming. It’s questionable whether their attraction includes anuses, but being between the buttocks is surely enough. However, the difference between pygophilia and rimming is that not everyone that enjoys rimming has pygophilia.
On the other hand, not everyone with pygophilia enjoys rimming. It’s safe to conclude that sexual rimming and pygophilia have some similarities, but there’s no clear connection tying them together.
Notable Differences
One of the notable differences is that pygophilia is an attraction while rimming is a sexual act if we’re being specific. Moreover, pygophilia is the attraction to the buttocks only. That means seeing or touching buttocks is enough to arouse and excite people with pygophilia. With that in mind, we can all identify as pygophiliacs because who doesn’t like seeing a nice butt? All jokes aside, pygophilia has nothing to do with anuses, even though they’re nested between buttcheeks.
On the other hand, people who enjoy sexual rimming may feel attraction toward butts as a whole. Sure, buttocks are great, but rimmers don’t shy away from anuses. In fact, they dive right in. But it’s not only this attraction that excites them. It’s the fact that they’re simultaneously pleasuring their partners. So, the mental stimulation is often far greater than the physical, but that doesn’t matter. Stimulation is stimulation, no matter where it’s coming from.
People that love receiving sexual rimming may not orgasm from it every time, or even at all. But this sexual activity is a great way to kickstart something greater. We encourage you to try it because it should definitely be a part of every foreplay.
Afterthoughts
Simply put, we encourage you to try rimming if you haven’t already. It can take your excitement for butts to a whole new level, especially because you’ll be in such close contact. On the other hand, it could spark attraction if you don’t already have it. Not to mention, your partner will appreciate you trying something new.
Speaking of your partner, rimming isn’t something you should surprise them with. Anuses are erogenous zones, but not for everyone. Even when they are, people can be sensitive about them. So, you need to be careful about how you approach them and this subject, in general.
The best thing you can do is talk to your partner and present the idea of rimming. Tell them all you know about how to do it safely, and hope they’ll say yes. Don’t worry if they reject you or say they’re not ready because there can still be hope for rimming in the future.
