Base on a plug
I just received my first plug for review. This one link. I am a little worried that the base is to small. The Diameter at the widest point is 1 1/2...

Do you have any buttons to push?
I have two sets of what my boy likes to call my buttons. All he has to do is grab me by them and push with his thumbs and I'm moaning involuntarily....

Belly Button Lint
I like to ponder the more simple things in life from time to time, and this one has me stumped! Where the hell does it come from? Why doesn't it show.

How do you get your butt really clean?

How to take a huge butt plug?
I just bought a large sized butt plug, any ideas on how to get it in?

The one and only: Njoy Pure Plug. I'd suggest to try the size medium...just remember to always begin anal play by warming up with plenty of lube and your finger first, then your behind will be ready for plug insertion. The size small might be less intimidating for a beginner, but you will outgrow it very quickly (after a few anal play sessions), and you'll regret not buying a medium sized plug in the first place; one more thing, the bulge on the size small is a bit too small to stay put for long-term wear.

looking forward to seeing more posts - newbie here, too!

My favorites are the medium Njoy Pure Plug, Tantus Ryder, and Tantus Dipper.

I really like the Fun Factory Bootie, Tantus Ryder and Doc Johnson Mood Naughty Large.

The Love Pacifier Advanced is really an interesting one. And very comfortable for long-term wear too!

Well, I have two. The Pure Pure Medium and the Lil End. Lil End I would not recommend unless you want to get several plugs. The reason for that is because it does NOT stay in. However, it's great as a warm-up toy or for beginners since it's so slim. Secondly, Pure Plug is wonderful. Not only does it stay in pretty well, (the only time it pops out is sometimes when I orgasm) it feels AMAZING. If you're not comfortable spending that much, I would imagine that glass would feel similar. Good luck!

Best plugs are the Sasha Grey black plugs! I recommend a medium! just cause I'm too scared for the large, haha

I bought the Love Pacifier Advanced first, and when I got it home I took a good look at it and tried to get this thing in my butt after lube it wasn't going to fit, so I got the Love Pacifier Begineer with a little coaxing it went in and really felt good. Now I have graduated to the Advanced, but still use the little guy.

I like them big, so be forewarned.

Tantus Severin Medium
Sasha Grey Large (though any size would be good)
Tantus A-Bomb
Vixen Tristan 1.5 vibrating
Doc Johnson Big Man
Ryder is very good as well.

Others I mostly like, but have some issues:

Pure Plugs - feel great, but the base is too big for me - if I sit down the plug gets pushed up into my prostate and makes it tender

The Njoy Pure Plug and the Tantus Ryder were my suggestions. If you want to start small, the EF beginner set in silicone looks nice.

I would praise the following three...

Pure Plug medium (for wearing out and for long-term/stay-put wear)
Titanmen Trainer (for a comfortable intro warmup)
Titanmen Master (for a medium stretch)

Those are my three favorites. I constantly see the Tantus Ryder being touted on all of the forums.
