Pegging is a sexual practice in which a woman penetrates a man's anus using a strap-on dildo. This act typically involves the man being the receptive partner and the woman wearing a harness with the dildo to perform anal penetration
. The term "pegging" was popularized in 2001 by sex advice columnist Dan Savage through a contest in his "Savage Love" column to find a name for this specific act, which previously lacked a common term in English
. While originally defined as a woman penetrating a man, the meaning has broadened to include all genders and sexualities engaging in anal sex with a strap-on
. Pegging challenges traditional gender roles by reversing the usual penetrative dynamics in heterosexual sex, often involving themes of dominance and submission
. It can also stimulate the prostate, sometimes called the male G-spot, which can increase sexual pleasure for men
. In summary, pegging is a form of anal sex involving a strap-on dildo, usually with a woman penetrating a man, that subverts conventional sexual roles and can provide unique physical and psychological experiences
