Anilingus

Dear Ms. Rica,

Gusto ko po ung dinidilaan ako sa likod (anal). Enough na po ba ung paghuhugas ko bago ako magpadila para maging malinis?

Hello Kiss A,

Kung tama ang pagkakaintindi ko sa sinulat mo, ang hilig mo ay tina­tawag na “anilingus” or “rimming” or anal oral sex. This is done through licking, sucking, kissing the anus with the lips or tongue.

Unfortunately, hindi enough ang paghuhugas lang ng pwet para maging malinis for anilingus. Your anus is a breeding ground for harm­ful bacteria na nakakadulot ng sakit kapag na-ingest. Intestinal parasites and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) katulad ng herpes, gonorrhea, human papillomavirus (HPV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and hepatitis na pwedeng makainfect sa anus ay maaari mong makuha or maspread through anilingus.

Kaya it’s better if you use a kind of protection katulad ng latex barrier and lube kapag nag-aanilingus. This could reduce the risk of getting a dis­ease for you and your partner.

Usually, as well as the fecal matter is not too watery or too hard, hindi ito magsstay sa rectum or anal ca­nal hanggang ikaw ay ma-No. 2 Ibig sabihin, as long as hindi ka na No. 2 kapag ikaw ay nag-papadila, maii­wasan mo ang pagkakaroon ng dumi all around.

Pero, para makasigurado na wa­lang traces of fecal matter around your anal region bago ka maki­paganilingus, you may wash it and wipe it with a moist soft cloth and warm water. Be as gentle as pos­sible para maiwasan ang pagkaka­roon ng cuts, irritation, and even infection.

In addition to preventing bacte­rial infections, mahalaga din na magpascreen kayo ng partner mo regularly for STIs para masigu­radong safe kayo pareho. Kapag magpapatest kayo ay mahalaga na banggitin sa doktor na kayo ay nag-aanal play para mascreen din kayo through rectal testing.

Huwag kayo mahiya, hindi kayo dapat i-judge ng doctor niyo. Kapag jinudge kayo, sumbong niyo sakin. Chos.

Either way, importante talaga na maging safe kayo at responsible in any kind of sex. Lalo na ang anal play kasi ito ang may pinakamataas na risk na makakuha ng STIs. Dahil walang dental dam dito sa Pilipinas, pwede kayo gumamit ng condom for safer anilungus. Cut the tip and the elastic ring and cut along the length and voila, may latex barrier na kayo! You can use it with any lube you pre­fer for a safe and fun anal play!

With love and lust,

Rica
