> I am deciding that I wanna try anal.. I have never done it before and several of my friends told me that it is a very unpleasant experience.

Yes, the experience can indeed be very unpleasant; HOWEVER, one of the important reasons for this venue is to pass along information and this includes "how-to" information. Done incorrectly, anal fingering as well as penetration can be painful. Done correctly, anal fingering as well as penetration can be exquisitely pleasurable because:
* The area around and just inside the sphincter is richly endowed with sensitive nerve endings that turn on and become highly reactive when a person (male or female) is very aroused!
* For the male of the species, massaging the prostate gland at the peak of arousal and immediately prior to climaxing can be the stuff of dreams.

* Inserting dildos and toys can be playful and fun as well as a huge turn-on.

* Inserting a penis is a debatable issue. Many people draw the line with this and are adamant against it. Other people do not mind. Before ever considering doing this do have a serious talk with your partner. Never presume that this will be OK.

> I want to try it because I am wanting to try new things. So if anyone could help me out I would really appreciate it..

Please read this article and then ask your partner to do so, also. Discuss what you have learned.

Read up, use lube, take it slow. Only porn stars get a hard one jammed in there with little effort. I prefer to use a condom as going from back to front can give you a infection, and no woman wants that. Be safe and enjoy!
