Discourses on Heterosexual Anal Sex 

The issues of sex, virginity, homosexual relations, etc used to be related to cultural aspects of each society during concrete historic periods. Some kinds of sexual behaviors were considered inappropriate or even deviant, attitudes towards virginity changed with time. Today a lot of attention is paid towards the issues of anal sex by heterosexual couples. Some time ago it was generally assumed that only homosexual couples could be associated with anal sex, but in reality more and more heterosexual couples are reported to have it regularly or from time to time. There is no concrete explanation why anal sex became more popular in the 21^st century by heterosexual couples, this could be explained by the presence of anal sex scenes in porno and by wide discussion of this issue. “One small study has suggested that in the UK, around 20 per cent of pornographic DVDs feature rectal intercourse. Often, it is presented as something that is both routine and painless for women. In real life, this is not the case. Anal intercourse is often very painful for women, particularly the first few times.” (Delvin 2). This type of intercourse is rather controversial, as for some individuals it is related to painful feelings and lack of any kind of pleasure, whereas other people are able to have fun thanks to “rectal sex”. In addition anal sex is associated with certain health risks, which should be considered by both categories. Young people have always wanted to shift from old-fashioned attitudes and traditions for the sake of trying something new and even challenging and now it seems to be the correct time for reconsidering of the issues, related to heterosexual anal sex.Discourses on Heterosexual Anal Sex Paper
