I am prepared to get yelled at for this. But to me it's true.
I think if they are used sensibly, they can be helpful. I'm still relatively new to anal, and we do use one. However, we ONLY apply it right to the anal opening. Just a tiny bit around the rim and and slightly inside about 1/4 inch.
We never use it inside and deeper than that. So, really, all it does is take the pain off the opening. He's pretty thick. Once it's in, we're fine. It's getting it there. I get nervous, I tense up.
I've never had any negative side effects. I suppose if he went charging in like a bull, maybe. But he's still pretty easy on me. I wouldn't do it if it hurt.
