Checklist Category
Anal
Anal play in all its forms: external touch, fingers, small toys, larger toys, partner penetration, prostate stimulation, strap-on play in either direction. A category that benefits from explicit negotiation because the technical safety considerations (hygiene, lube, pacing) are different from other categories.
Why this category matters
Anal play has hard safety constraints (no-share without sterilisation, flared bases mandatory for plugs, water-based lube only for silicone toys). Knowing what your partner is and is not interested in lets you plan accordingly: the right toy material, the right lubricant, the right pacing.
