You asked:

Does anyone else worry about their butt plug slipping in completely during wear and then being hard to get out? Is this something that actually happens, or am I just being paranoid? And if it does happen, how do you deal with it? Are some designs better at preventing this?

Grace:

Nope, you're not being paranoid — this unfortunately can happen, and often results in a trip to the ER.

The best way to prevent it is to use butt plugs with a T-bar style base. If you do choose to go for a different style, make sure it is from a legit, high-quality brand that you can trust. You don’t want to mess around with cheap stuff when it comes to anal.

Thankfully, if you're shopping at The Sex Shed, we've already done that part for you, as we strive to make sure every plug on our site is safe for use. Personally I like to stick with b-Vibe — they’re basically the brand for anal play and all their plugs feel super secure, even though they have a range of different base options.
