Wearing a Butt Plug in Public

Last Updated on January 29, 2024

Butt plug diamonds are one of the most well-liked sex toys, used by both women and men. While they were initially intended purely for elevating pleasure during sexual activity, these anal plug jewels have recently become much more than that.

Many people have started wearing butt plugs at home during the day or in their sleep. Some butt plug enthusiasts even went beyond that - they wear them in public too. The princess jewel or diamond that shines adds extra appeal to fetish wear purposes.

Although it may sound a bit extraordinary to some of us, it’s actually a common practice that is increasingly gaining popularity. And there are a few good reasons for it. 

Do you want to learn a bit more about the various butt plugs for all day wear and how you can benefit from them if you wear them in public? Read on!

Why Wear a Butt Plug?

First of all, what is it actually about butt plugs that people like to wear them? Well, those innocent sex toys are used for a variety of purposes. 

One of the reasons why they are so eagerly used is that they allow you to relax and stretch out the anal muscles so that anal sex is more comfortable. When you’re gently stretched out, the likelihood of experiencing pain or getting anal fissures during anal play is lower, and you can enjoy the sexual sensations even more.

Butt plugs also provide extra stimulation , both physical and mental. People who are only just getting started with anal sex use plugs to help them get comfortable with the sensation of it, no matter their sexual orientation. They like to experiment with various toy sizes to work their way up from smaller to bigger ones. Not forgetting about using plenty of anal lube, obviously!

Those playful toys are also used to provide foreplay before anal sexual intercourse. Having some fun with a butt plug before you let your partner insert their penis or a dildo is a great way to spice up the atmosphere in your bedroom, especially if you both like to try new things. 

Can You Wear a Butt Plug in Public?

You certainly can. There are more and more people wearing butt plugs in public. However, before heading outside with a butt plug up your anus, make sure you can successfully wear it around the house, especially if you’ve never worn one before. After all, it’s all about your comfort and pleasure. 

With that in mind, start off with wearing a butt plug in your home settings. You can clean, make laundry, or cook dinner with your little sex toy inside to see how you get around with it. 

Whether you wear your butt plug at home or in public, make sure not to wear it for a long time, especially when you’re new to the game. It is recommended to wear a plug for 2 to 3 hours at a time.

You can gradually increase the amount of time you have your little friend in, but the good idea is to wear a butt plug as long as you would normally do at home. Again, your comfort is the key factor here.

Why Would You Want to Wear a Butt Plug in Public?

Many people wear butt plugs in public because they simply like having them inside. Apart from the physical sensations they get, they also do it for the idea of having a naughty secret that only they know about. For many, the fact that they are doing something forbidden and that they might ‘get caught’ is exciting. 

Wearing a butt plug in public is also popular among enthusiasts of kinky sexual pleasure who like to engage in BDSM practices and various role-playing activities. For example, the ‘dom’ can make the ‘sub’ wear a butt plug to a certain social event as part of their sexual play. 

So, whether it’s running errands around town, working out at the gym, being at work, or sitting in a coffee shop, you can do any of those activities while having a butt plug inside. As long as you feel comfortable and effortless wearing it, you can certainly enjoy the various mental and physical sensations it offers. 

Some people wear them for the purpose of anal training meant to prepare the anus for those interested in anal play.

Which Butt Plugs Are the Best to Wear in Public?

Public Butt plugs

If you wear butt plugs at home, you can try any type of plug you like, including large butt plugs, jewel butt plugs, or specialized toys like tail butt plugs. You can even have a go with a vibrating butt plug for some extra sensations. 

However, when it comes to wearing a butt plug in public, you should be focused on your comfort above all else. Therefore, you may want to start with a small plug that’s relatively soft and will make it easier for you to get used to the experience of wearing a butt plug outside. 

If your sex toy has any specialized features or textures, you may find it difficult to go around with in public which will ultimately affect your well-being. 

Flat-based butt plugs are the safest butt plug to wear. They are easier to remove thanks to their flared base, as well as give clothes a better look, for example, if you were to wear a pair of tight jeans while also wearing a plug. They aren’t bulky, which will make them totally invisible if someone should be looking towards your ass.

No matter what type of butt plug you go for, it’s important to remember that you should always remove it once you start to feel uncomfortable wearing it. This can happen when your body starts to absorb lube, making your anus drier, which can lead to irritation. For that reason, you should remove the plug as soon as you spot the first sign of discomfort. 

Therefore, if you’re planning to wear a butt plug in public, you need to make sure that you’re fully prepared in case you will have to remove it. Always keep a plastic bag and some lube with you so that you can place the plug in it if you’re done for the day, or re-apply some lube if you feel like inserting it again. 

The Bottom Line

Butt plugs are popular sex toys that are more and more commonly used outside the bedroom for many good reasons. 

For most people, wearing a butt plug in public feels good and provides various enjoyable sensations. However, it's crucial to know how to wear it properly to get the most out of it.

If you're new to the butt plug game, especially wearing it in public, there are a few things that you need to keep in mind. The most important is to make sure you feel comfortable having it inside and not keeping them longer than a few hours at a time at first. Once you get the hang of it, you will surely enjoy every minute with your little guy.
