We love god, and sodomy, too. We recently received yet another letter from an angry fellow in which he called us "Demonic sodomites who will die in hell." I wrote the impassioned gentleman, Vincent, to let him know that if sodomy is indeed permitted in hell then, yep, we would be volunteering to go.
In the context of sex, the rectum and the anus, as BastardLife readers may know, is often associated with intercourse between two men, or men and willing women who either love it, or dutifully submit to their male partners to pleasure them. What heterosexual men, like Vincent, may not know is that in men, the rectum, regardless of your sexual orientation, is an area that can issue enormous pleasure by stimulating the prostate gland and sensitive nerves around the anus. When touched or massaged, the prostate—about a half-inch inside the opening of the anus—is a spot in a man's body that heightens sensations during masturbation or sexual intercourse during orgasm. Why?
The prostate is the area where the fluids of ejaculation gather just before they take off up the shaft of the penis. During sexual arousal, sperm and ejaculatory fluid accumulate in the seminal vesicles, prostate, and ampulla, backing up behind valves in the ejaculatory ducts. When fluid pressure reaches a high enough threshold, the valves open and the urethral bulb fills, triggering the ejaculatory reflex and muscular contractions of orgasm, which empties the glands, and often delivers what some have called, well, a spiritual experience.—N.B.
