Condoms and Anal Sex

[DarkLady]

Okay this might sound like a weird question but I've heard of people using an internal/female condom during anal sex. I brought this up at a sex education workshop recently and two people said it was a horrible idea due to the fact that the internal/female condom might disappear up inside a person's anus which is not the case for the vagina due to the cervix. I've been googling it since I got home and a lot of different websites do talk about it and claim that it is safe. I was just wondering if it was indeed safe or not because the information I've been getting is conflicting.

The ring that remains outside of the body is large enough that it's unlikely that it would wind up inside someone's body during anal sex without some effort. I guess I can't say it's impossible, but it's not a complication I've ever heard of.

Thank you Mo, that clears things up.
