Juan is a guy in his late twenties. We met, as I often meet<br />
play partners, over the Internet. The first time he showed up<br />
at my door, I was more than a little dazzled by his good looks,<br />
trimly buffed body, and stunning smile. And by how much he<br />
liked to get fucked.<br />
Though he’s a busy guy, today he’s made some time to come<br />
over after work.<br />
“Hi, papi,” he says when he walks in. His smile’s even more<br />
amazing than I remember. “It’s good to see you.”<br />
It’s good to see him, too. It’s good to look down and see<br />
him sucking my cock. It’s good to pry apart his asscheeks<br />
and taste his hole. (And Juan has a very, very pretty hole.<br />
Remember, I’m a connoisseur.)<br />
And, most of all, it’s good to have my “son” Juan ride my<br />
dick. I do enjoy being on top, but as I suggested to Daniel, I<br />
also love to lie back and feel a guy ease down on my hard-on,<br />
and that’s just what Juan does. I look up into his dark eyes as<br />
I feel his sphincter relax, his delectable ass open up for me.<br />
“Ay, papi,” he gasps. “It’s so big.” (I’m not boasting here,<br />
only reporting.)<br />
We shift positions so I’m hitting his prostate, over and over<br />
and over again.<br />
And it’s Easter all over again.<br />
So is the rectum a grave?<br />
I remember the first time I fucked ass. It was with my first<br />
boyfriend, my first, tritely tragic love. I’d read<br />
an erotic novel, a rather good one as it happened,<br />
that explained how anal sex was the<br />
ultimate joining, a momentous pledging of devotion.<br />
So when I tried to jam my dick into Jim’s unready ass, when<br />
things collapsed into tears, neuroses, apologies, it all seemed<br />
so damn fraught. We broke up soon after, him leaving me to<br />
get married; I’m assuming his wife never did him with a dildo.<br />
But who knows?<br />
I do not, oddly, recall the first time I got fucked. I do remember<br />
this cute, curly-haired insurance salesman who used to<br />
come over to my place in the Haight, many years ago, and<br />
pound my ass till I was ready to beg him to stop (though I’m<br />
hoping I never actually begged him).<br />
Back then, I used to think I was doing a top a Real Big Favor if<br />
I let him use my ass. What can I say? I was young and foolish.<br />
I think I’ve learned a lot about sex since then. Buttfucking in<br />
theory and practice.<br />
Well, yes. Insofar as the body itself is a grave. Insofar as all<br />
our pleasures are mortal. Insofar as the corpses we sleep<br />
If the ass is a tomb, it’s like the one<br />
Jesus allegedly was left in.<br />
with are, ultimately, ourselves. And, yes, insofar, as the Buddha<br />
said, as our pleasures are what bind us to these pieces of<br />
walking meat we call “I.”<br />
But, at the risk of, oh, a thousand more incarnations or so, I<br />
find myself unable to stay away from the amazing beauty, the<br />
life force, of a good fuck. Hell, I’m not even trying very hard.<br />
Because if the ass is a tomb, it’s like the one Jesus allegedly<br />
was left in: It may seem like a dead end, but it’s a portal<br />
to transcendence, too. And if that transcendence is fleeting,<br />
equivocal, even stupid, well….<br />
Nothing says “trapped in a body” quite like anal sex does.<br />
And nothing else better says, “What the hell?”<br />
The transformational powers of anal sex are immense. What<br />
had been a functional aperture becomes a site of pleasure,<br />
replete with multiple meanings. It’s positively alchemical.<br />
Dross into gold. Asshole into pussy. Shit into glory. Magic,<br />
pure magic. And beauty. Beauty, beauty, beauty.<br />
