How to Prepare for First Anal Experience
 

Just curious on thoughts of how to prepare for a first time encounter. I've fantasized for many years but never indulged yet. I've practived oral and anal on dildos. But, getting tempted more and more. I have even been prepared once recently when I visited an abs, with rubbers and lube... and before hand did an enema, to insure I was clean. But, no one showed. Should I perhaps shave/trim up pubic hair and butt crack hair... or wear panties; if I want to try some bottom stuff out?

You have done all the correct cleaning up. I, for one, prefer a trimmed hole but others might like it natural.

An interesting subject. I gave my first blow job when I was 52 and I first bottomed when I was 56. The guy was really big and it hurt and I bleed. I had taken no preparations cause I thought I was just going to be sucking his lovely cock. Since that time I got into light bondage and I have two Masters both of which like to top me. I always prepare by giving myself an anema an hour or so before they arrive and taking a warm shower. I always have plenty of lube and condoms available. One of my Masters has a very big delicious cock. He usually starts out with a smaller dildo, then goes to the larger dildo to loosen me up and finally he fucks the hell out of me. I have to adjust sometimes because some positions just hurt but he accommodates the adjustment and really pumps me good. When the two of them come over I love to suck one while the other fucks me, it's a real treat. So my advice is to prepare, loosen up, and talk to your partners so you can move around and find a good comfortable position. If you're comfortable then you can really be nice and active and give them a nice ride. I know my Masters are appreciative when I get nice and energetic. I love it now, I love to suck and fuck. It's really nice and I wish I had started earlier.
I forgot to add that when I first started I was really tight and didn't think I could bottom. Now by preparing and talking with my partner I can handle a pretty good nice cock. But don't let anyone just ram it into you, you have to go slow on a nice big cock and ease it in, the big cocks really feel nice so good luck.

Is shaving the only option? What about hair removal creames?

No creams
 

The area is just too sensitive for hair removal creams. A steady hand, light touch and light weight razor with a mirror down to floor level makes for a good trim with some dexterity on your part.

Shaving cream is recommended at first but you can get by without it after some practice.
