Often used to spice up a couple's sex life, pegging is when a woman wears a strap-on dildo (or holds a handheld dildo/
vibrator) and uses it to have anal sex with her male
significant other. The act of pegging is rewarding for the man because it can likely assist him in achieving a prostate orgasm; arguably the most stimulating and rewarding orgasm for a man. Pegging has
nothing to do with one's sexual orientation. If a man and a woman engage in this act together, this does not
make the man gay in any way. Because of the stigma that society often places on anal sex, a heterosexual man may feel awkward or even ashamed for enjoying this type of stimulation, primarily because he does not want to be perceived as homosexual. A woman who pegs a man should encourage and assure him so that he is comfortable and relaxed. Pegging creates a state of submission, where the man is relinquishing all control to the woman; not natural for most men. This type of sexual activity can help couples achieve a closer and more intimate sex life.
Pegging can also occur between two people of the same sex, and is often a method of vaginal/anal stimulation between lesbian couples.
