Prostate play: a beginner’s guide for men
Prostate play is one of the most under-discussed parts of male pleasure, and one of the most rewarding once you know the basics. Here’s a straightforward starting point.
What the prostate is
The prostate is a small gland located a few centimetres inside the rectum, roughly towards the front of the body. It’s sometimes called the male G-spot because, for many men, direct stimulation produces a distinct and often more intense sensation than external stimulation alone.
Relaxation is the whole game
