I was a total anal noob when I ordered this toy. I had never even experimented with finger or tongue play before. It just never interested me and no one had ever seriously brought it up for me to try. But as a cam girl, I have had a lot of guys ask me "Do you do anal bb?". My thought was, No and never! But you know what they say... never say never. As time passed and more and more guys asked if I would ever consider trying anal, my curiosity was piqued. After announcing I was going to give it a go, a lot of them wanted to be there for my first time but I wanted to keep that private. You never know what's going to happen when playing with your bum hole, am I right?

I searched Eden for the perfect toy and decided on The Groove. It's silicone so it has a safety rating of 10 on Eden's scale, the highest rating possible. I wanted a silicone toy because it's not as hard as glass but is just as easy to clean and doesn't trap bacteria and... other stuff... if you catch my drift. It's super easy to clean and can be done by boiling it in a pot of water for 3 minutes or even by running it through a cycle in your dishwasher. Make sure to put it on the top rack if you use that method.

The toy I got is the grey color because I figured it was darker so if anything was to come out of my bum hole, it won't show up as much as opposed to the blue toy. I think it's pretty and looks almost metallic. It's 7 inches in length, with 6 of those being insertable. The circumference goes up to 4 3/4 inches, but of course since the toy is bulged and with each bulge being a little bigger, it doesn't start at 4 3/4 inches. I used it with lube which I recommend for anal play (especially if you're a beginner like me), but please make sure the lube is water-based. Using silicone or oil lubes with toys made out of silicone is a no no!

Overall, I really enjoyed this toy. I can't say I prefer anal but I'm definitely glad I tried it! I think the bulges really helped because if I enjoyed one inside, I could always try to fit another and see how I liked it. It wasn't overwhelming and that's what I was worried about.
