  • Does "man" get dirty during anal intercourse?
    No, "man" doesn't get dirty during anal intercourse. The anus and rectum are filled with feces only immediately prior to defecation, and are otherwise relatively clean. If you want to be on the safe side, you can also use an anal rinse, but this is actually not necessary. A new condom should only be used or the penis washed off when changing position (e.g. anal sex first and then oral sex) so that no bacteria from the rectum can get to other places (e.g. the mouth).
