Recent interest in heterosexual anal intercourse has been generated from several research perspectives. Even those women who found pleasure in AI expressed a preference for vaginal intercourse. Pain during AI was mitigated by the use of lubricants or illicit drugs. The majority of AI episodes were unplanned and not discussed prior to initiation. Many of the women also endorsed positive emotional experiences of AI, including that it was more intimate than vaginal sex, and that it was something they reserved only for special partners. Positive physical experiences included liking the sensation. Negative emotional experiences of AI included feelings of shame, disgust, and being offended by something her male partner did, such as spitting on his penis for lubrication. Among the negative physical experiences of AI were pain and disliking the sensation, and uncomfortable side effects, such as bleeding of the rectum. Past experience with AI including emotional and physical reactions was identified. The riskiness of AI was assessed within relationship contexts.
