What is Pegging?

PeggingYou may have heard of it, especially if you’re a Marvel Universe fan and have seen the Deadpool movies. But what is it exactly? While it sounds like it could be some new internet fad to replace planking or absolutely nailing someone in your intramural dodgeball league, pegging is actually a sexual act. Pegging is when a woman takes the sexual driver seat and penetrates a man anally using a strap-on dildo. Let’s face it, you’re here, curiosity got ya. Let Popstar Labs fill you in, we are known as the better orgasm company and brought you the best semen volume booster on the planet!

Why Even Go There?

Look, we get it. Up until now, your back door has only had an exit sign. But believe it or not, an anal orgasm can be even more intense and pleasurable than a regular one. Why is that? Well, we have all heard about a woman’s G-Spot. Less of us have found it. Well, a man’s G-Spot can be reached via prostate stimulation techniques through a small, walnut-sized gland called the prostate. The P-Spot, if you will. Even if you don’t hit your prostate, your body has more nerve endings down there than you think, so it is worth the test drive.

What You'll Need

Ok, Tim Allen fans, it’s Tool Time. The good news is the starter pack for pegging is simpler and much cheaper than that $900 power drill you’ve been eyeing since Black Friday. After you and your partner are both on board to try pegging, here is what you’ll need:

The Strap-On

Sounds a bit like a supervillain, but a strap-on is simply a dildo and a harness combo. They can be bought together, or you can pick out each part separately. We recommend choosing the right strap-on for your needs. It’s like customizing and detailing your own dream car. The “driver” (your wife, girlfriend, etc.) gets to pick a harness that is comfortable for them, while you, the “passenger,” pick a size you’re cool with.

Lube, Lube, and More Lube

The WD-40 of the situation. The best lubes for anal play are water-based options, like Popstar Play, which helps reduce friction and enhance comfort. Trust us—more lube is always better.

Anal Play Preparation: Getting Started

Now that your pegging tool belt is situated, let's get started. Anal play preparation is key, so treat pegging like you’re driving stick again for the first time: take it slow, steady, and have patience. Foreplay is a must (not that we need to sell you on that). Start with some kissing, touching, and, of course, oral. Then, start with a little batting practice by having your partner use a well-lubed finger. When it’s game time, have your partner apply lube generously (seriously, be generous) to the dildo and start slow.

Pegging Positions for Beginners

Missionary, while vanilla, is the best bet for beginners. It allows easy access, and you can both laugh nervously while holding eye contact. Other pegging positions for beginners include doggy style (for deeper penetration) and spooning (for a more relaxed vibe). Remember, you’re a team here. Communication during anal sex is crucial, so keep the conversation going and the lube flowing.

If anything, pegging could be the thing that breaks up your regular sex routine and keeps things interesting in your relationship.

Post-Pegging: The Aftercare

Congratulations, you did it! Now what? Talk about it. Every team debriefs after a big game. Check-in with your partner to see what you liked, what you didn’t like, and what you’d like to change for next time. Aftercare following pegging is essential—whether that means cuddling, hydrating, or just chilling with some Netflix. Be ready for full-on self-care mode. Have a drink at the ready on the nightstand, and throw on reruns of The Office for some post-game cool down.

The Takeaway

If anything, pegging could be the thing that breaks up your regular sex routine and keeps things interesting in your relationship. After all, routines are for Monday mornings, not the sack. Just remember to lubricate, communicate, fornicate, and don’t hate on new experiences!

Debunking Pegging Misinformation

There’s a lot of misinformation out there about pegging, so let’s clear some things up:

  • No, pegging doesn’t “make you gay.” It’s simply another way to experience pleasure.

  • Always use plenty of lube, communicate openly, and start with smaller toys if you’re new.

  • Many couples find that pegging deepens trust and connection in their relationship.

  • Nervous? That’s normal. Take your time and ease into the experience at your own pace.

Absolutely performs as advertised. I've taken Popstar for several months, and can say without a doubt that my volume has increased significantly, even earning a "Whoa! That's a lot!" from my wife. I cannot attest to the taste, but I am certainly satisfied with the volume enhancement.

I always had big cumshots, i tried popstars just to see if they can get even bigger. It took me a week to see some effect but after a week...wooow, it makes a real difference, now my loads are bigger than ever.

After taking Popstar pills for two weeks, I noticed a big difference! My erections stay hard for a longer time and my orgasms are much more powerful. In addition, my volume has increased twice the amount as before. I am looking forward to having many more explosions!

I was skeptical. I’ve tried other products before but this has shown more visible results. My cream is thicker and tastier. It’s especially noticeable when I’m edging myself. The load size is bigger, but like I mentioned before, thicker. Will continue to use this.
