Another Fingering Question
Do you...Or have you ever fingered your mans butt hole?? I think thats just super weird...So have you?

Do you like fake fingernails?
I hate them. I don't understand why anyone would wear them. They're unhealthy, from all I've read, and to me, they look terrible. What's your opinion.

Where are the finger condoms/finger cots?
Is it just me or does Eden not carry finger condoms? This seems so bizarre but I can't find any anywhere on the site.

If you cut your nails low - as you say - then it definitely shouldn't hurt him... Do you use a dry finger? Or a little lube or spit? I'm just really baffled, because my girl has nails, and it doesn't hurt. - And I've certainly never been cut.

I guess you could try pulling a condom over your finger, see if he still feels sore.

I would say take some time and round off the nail as best you can. If that does not work, use a glove. It may feel a bit different but that is better than causing pain. Another option would be to use a small probe/dildo to warm him up.

I'm kind of OCD about things like whether my nails would hurt someone, etc. during anal play so personally, I'd just use some gloves.

I always file my nails super-carefully and make absolutely sure I don't have any hang-nails.

I always felt like your husband - that's why I prefer that she use a steel or glass toy. But she thinks the finger is good prep - I don't complain, it's all good.

I always use gloves, and loads of lube when fingering my boyfriend. But as for warming him up, try a really thin dildo and work your way up?

My boyfriend and I had this issue with each other, unfortunately. We're both nail-biters and, being in a long distance relationship, decided that we would cease biting our nails for our time together during the summer. Unfortunately, we found out relatively quickly that having nails hindered us more than helped, and cut them as low as possible.

With that in mind, I obviously wouldn't recommend you take up nail-biting, but if it's something you're willing to sacrifice a bit for, just try to keep them as low as possible. The other thing you might look into is one of the little "finger" add-ons that are meant for women. You might be able to find one with a bit of texture that he'll enjoy that'll feel good while protecting him from your nails.

I have seen someone on the forums make a great recommendation, but I can't remember who it was. She recommends taking a cotton ball and shoving some of it under your nail, and then the rest up and over your nail. Then put a glove on over that, and you should be good to go. It's a little extra work, but worth it in the long run if it proves less painful. Otherwise, yes, go with a small probe or butt plug instead of your finger. Best wishes!

You could also try just using more twisting movements, rather than in-out...twist while you pull down. It might help, not sure if he'll dislike it more, but its worth a try!
