More than one-third of women in the U.S. have engaged in heterosexual anal intercourse (HAI), but little is known regarding women's perceptions of HAI and motivations for engaging in this sexual behavior.
This study aimed to explore U.S. women's motivations for engaging in HAI and to investigate how they navigate HAI in the context of sexual relationships.
Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 women, ages 18-50 years old, who had engaged in anal intercourse with a male partner within the past 3 months. The interview guide was developed utilizing a conceptual framework based on the Theory of Planned Behavior.
Thematic content analysis was performed, and salient themes were identified.
Salient themes were identified in all key components of the construct, including attitudes toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. Women's intent to engage in HAI was influenced by their attitudes toward HAI and level of control and trust with their partners. Primary motivators were partner and personal pleasure and sexual curiosity and experimentation.
The Theory of Planned Behavior construct was well suited to explore factors influencing women's intent to engage in HAI. Most women perceive negative societal norms toward HAI. Although this does not appear to affect intention to engage in HAI, it does affect disclosure of this sexual activity with friends and healthcare providers. It is important for healthcare providers to provide open, non-judgmental counseling regarding HAI to decrease stigma, enhance communication, and improve sexual health.

超过三分之一的美国女性有过异性肛交行为，但对于女性对异性肛交的认知以及她们进行这种性行为的动机却知之甚少。
本研究旨在探讨美国女性进行异性肛交的动机，并调查她们在性关系背景下如何进行异性肛交。
对20名年龄在18至50岁之间、在过去3个月内与男性伴侣有过肛交行为的女性进行了半结构化访谈。访谈指南是根据基于计划行为理论的概念框架制定的。
进行主题内容分析，并确定突出主题。
在该结构的所有关键组成部分中都确定了突出主题，包括对行为的态度、主观规范和感知行为控制。女性进行异性肛交的意图受其对异性肛交的态度以及与伴侣的控制和信任程度影响。主要动机是伴侣和个人愉悦以及性好奇和探索。
计划行为理论结构非常适合探索影响女性进行异性肛交意图的因素。大多数女性认为社会对异性肛交存在负面规范。虽然这似乎并未影响进行异性肛交的意图，但确实影响了与朋友和医疗服务提供者分享这种性活动的情况。医疗服务提供者提供关于异性肛交的开放、无偏见咨询以减少污名化、加强沟通并改善性健康非常重要。本森LS、吉尔摩KC、米克斯EA等。异性恋女性对肛交的认知：一项定性试点研究。《性医学》2019年；7：198 - 206。
