So what is “regular anal sex”, well it’s important to know two things about up-the-butt sex. But guys who are having regular receptive sex shouldn’t have any issues in controlling their bodily functions. Whether this guy actually existed we’ll never know, maybe he did. We’ve all heard the story of the guy that had anal sex so much that he couldn’t control his bowels and so he needed to wear a tampon to stop the poop. This sometimes happens in countries where homosexuality is illegal.
