How did you learn that anal sex existed, specifically?

Question

I'm not talking about literal experience... i mean, how did you 'hear about' or 'read up' that anal sex even was 'a thing' or that it was possible. Especially if, like me somewhat, you'd never really ever considered anal sex and only had ever thought of sex as vaginal (and lesser, oral) only. Not a guy sticking his penis inside and deep up in his lady friend's rear-end. I only 'heard about' anal when i was 18 and only seriously looked it up in online research when i was 22/23.

When I was in my early 20's, I had heard mention of anal sex but had never thought much about it. When I was 24, I started dating a girl who had genital herpes. We preferred sex without condoms. She told me that she was not contagious unless she had active lesions in her pussy.

One night, I came to her apartment and she told me that we couldn't have sex because she had started having active herpes lesions. Then she explained that we could have anal sex instead and I didn't want to admit that I was totally unfamiliar with it so I just went with it. She was an attractive young lady and PIV sex was great but with the novelty, taboo, and tightness of her ass, the anal sex was over the top!

Years later, I went looking for her (but not because of anal sex,) found her, and married her. Of course, it didn't last.

My junior year in high school Mary Lynn in the band, who had one of the hottest, roundest, highest booties I've ever seen, inspired me to think about taking her up the ass.

I've known that gay men do it there, but one day I was so horny while my boyfriend and I was at it so I told him to stick it there. He did and it felt amazing, had he not stopped I would have climaxed which is hard for me through vaginal sex. At first he was hesitant and then he did, then he ended up liking it.

At the age of eight I had an urgent desire to stick my dick in girls. However I didn't know about vaginas but knew everyone had a butthole, so that's pretty much all I thought about.

I didn't know it existed until I started watching porn. As a matter of fact, I didn't know a lot of things existed until I watched porn.

When I was 15 I had sex a few times with my neighbor. I think she was in her early thirties at the time. We probably had sex five or six times before her husband found out and put a stop to it. One of those times she told me to put it in her butt. I felt like she knew what she was doing and trusted her so I did it. That was the first time I knew it was even a thing.
