Abstract in brief

  • This study explores heterosexual undergraduate men's attitudes and practices related to anal stimulation, revealing that some men openly discuss and have experienced anal pleasure despite societal stereotypes.
  • Participants challenged the stereotype that anal receptivity is exclusively linked to gay or nonconforming men, showing more openness about this aspect of sexual pleasure.
  • The study highlights a lack of knowledge about safe and pleasurable anal practices, suggesting the need for better sexual health education to improve understanding and experiences.]
