About
Power Bottom is an LGBTQslang term for a man who prefers to be on the receiving end of anal sex but, rather than be submissive, controls the experience and acts dominant in the relationship.

Originating online as early as the mid-2000s, the designation spread on social media and other sites into the 2020s as it became more widely known.

The arse does not produce its own lubrication.
This means that lube is really, really important for any anal play. First, to interrupt damage to the internal lining of your arse. Second, to make bottoming (and topping!) more pleasurable. And third, to serve protect it from infections.
Remember to use water or silicon-based lubes, as oil-based lubes can damage condoms.
2. You
The second principle is YOU. This is the one that covers off all the mental and emotional aspects such as making sure you perceive safe, making sure there is consent, that you feel comfortable, that you know your own bottoming limits and desires.
Remember, sex is best for everyone if all the people involved are motivated by trying to maximise everyone’s pleasure safely. You can’t be a good significant other and you can’t encounter pleasure for yourself if you’re stressed or uncomfortable (bottom or not!).
