No Gloves For Anal Loosening; Alternatives?

[PridefuLee]

So I’m a thirteen year old trans-boy, my name is Lee. I’ve been getting more confident about my female born body, and have decided; I’m still a boy, I just have a different anatomy. And as a hormone raging teen I’m a bit more horny than others. So sexually, I can take advantage of that! I want to explore safe sex more so I can safely take it on as a hobby once I’m old enough to consent and have legal sex. For now I’m just exploring different masturbation options and learning as much as I can about sex and safe practices.

Recently I’ve been wanting to explore anal more, and my parents obviously don’t know about this. We don’t have any latex gloves or lube, so I was wondering if Saran Wrap wrapped around two fingers and melted (not hot) butter can be an alternative. Yes it seems a little weird, but butter is natural and as long as it’s the type of butter that needs to thaw (natural butter) I should be okay right? If it’s not what are some better house hold alternatives?

Hi Lee!

Welcome to the boards

Gloves and lube are relatively easy to find in the drugstore or grocery store and aren't age restricted products, so your best option is to try and get hold of the real thing.

I wouldn't suggest the saran wrap option. Whilst it can be used as a DIY dental dam, its no replacement for gloves or condoms and there is a risk of it coming off your fingers and getting stuck in your anus. If you wash your hands thoroughly before and after, and ensure you've trimmed your finger nails using your fingers alone should be okay - since you're just with yourself you're unlikely to contract an STI that way. I alsp wouldn't suggest butter, though some people use vegetable oils as lubricant. Again though, different people's bodies interact differently with different oils.
