Good idea or bad idea for a gift?
Basically i'm thinking about buying her a tiny, un obtrusive and innocent looking butt plug in addition to the normal gifts . have never broached the anal topic with her before, but she knows i'm experimental and curious.
i figure she could A- think i'm crazy, B- laugh about it, or C- think about using it. there's probably a host of other possibilities, but B or C would work alright for me. Anyone else have stories about such gifts that went over well or not so well? I'd share my own stories if i had them to share. after this holiday season i just might |

No stories but I guess in your case, if you are unsure how she will react, you may want to approach the issue first and wait on the gift until next year or never depending on how she reacts.
Also, my wife would be okay receiving something like that as a birthday or even a secondary anniversary gift but for her, Christmas is different. She would be offended receiving it during a religious holiday, even though she isn't overly religious. Just something to think about.

Ask her, as casually as possible, what she thinks about anal play. Judge whether or not to get it for her by her reaction to that.

thanks for the response guys. I'm usually of the mentality that tuffrr described. problem is putting that "asking as casually as possible" with "not spoiling the surprise"
its good pointing out that it's a religious holiday, and while i didn't think about it before, on further thought i realize she's not terribly religious at all. |

If you want to add a certain "artistic" look to it (which might help it fly a little better), check out the metal ones at
www.blowfish.com I can't remember the specific name of the artist who designed them (damn work filter software), but I got my wife the medium sized with the skull on the end of it (you have to see it to know what I am talking about). Blowfish has some seriously cool stuff. |

I think I'd skip it on Christmas unless you knew it was going to go over well. How about the Winter Solstice, December 21st? "Honey, you know how today is the darkest day of the year? Up at the North Pole, they don't even see the sun all day. Speaking of places where the sun don't shine..."
Of course, you might want to be at least arm's length away from her at the time, with a clear path to the doorway.

If she's sexually gung-ho and ready to try new things, you can't go wrong. While I might look at my SO a little oddly if I unwrapped one myself, there's really no harm intended. If she has a sense of humor she may think it's a gag gift, so really it should be OK.
