Removed citation needed
I thought it silly to ask for citation under the fact that some cultures accept anal sex. This isn't really an arguable fact considering the availability of discussions threads/products/pornography aimed at enjoying the act of anal sex making the statement unarguable being that the Webster definition (5b) of culture is: the customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group.[1] However it may be a good idea to erase the statement all together as it is slightly redundant basically only saying "some people like it, some people don't".
P.S. It's late, I'm bored, hope I helped...meh —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dallas1138 (talk • contribs) 07:55, 27 June 2008 UTC
Greek
My understanding was that the term "Greek" for the practice arose because culturally, greek women are very careful to keep their hymen intact to be ruptured only by their future marriage partner, and so in pre-marital sexual encounters they permit anal intercourse while disallowing vaginal intercourse. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.131.128.151 (talk) 07:31, 24 July 2008 UTC
Need picture on female genital anatomy
Not a bad article but what is missing is the female counterpart of the picture of male genital anatomy. As the article itself points, there are now more heterosexual woman than gay men having anal sex. Clearly, this article needs a clarifying picture for women.
Female pleasure?
The arcticle currently describes only the mechanism whereby a male reciepent of anal sex gets pleasure from it.
There should be some explanation or at least statement on the pleasure mechanism (if any) for female reciepents as well.
Does anyone have anything related to this subject?

Islam and P.R. Octol...
PiCo added a paragraph on the realities of anal sex in the Middle East (diffs here [2]) quoting a reference by P. R. Octol, "Normative Sexual Customs of the Arabs", Journal of British and Imperial Medical Practise, Vol.12/1, pp.174-186. That's quite hilarious. The citation is non-existent and appears made up. Unless proven otherwise, I'll delete the edit. I'll give it a day or so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.204.252.219 (talk) 01:52, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
- "That's quite hilarious." You got it :) PiCo (talk) 03:05, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
- Dr. P.R.Octol has retired. I was curious about the entry because of my own experience (keep reading) in Iraq in the 1990s, when I was working with the UN oil for food mission. A Muslim boy in Irbil, aged 15, described to me how he had anal sex with his girlfriend so that she could remain a virgin, and an Egyptian colleague told me how he visited a prostitute in Basra and found that she was back door only. (He also told me that the Gulf Arabs have a reputation among other Arabs for being addicted to this - and a Lebanese described how the Kuwaiti men would wander the aisles of the shopping malls on the look-out for the pubescent sons of Westerners, who appeared in public in shorts with their knees bared). But what began as a whim has turned into curiosity, and I did a bit of research, and the results, properly referenced, are now in the page. Perhaps you'd like me to extend this further?
