I'm gay, so I'll just get that much out of the way. I've been having anal sex for about two years with my same boyfriend, and what will follow will be all the terrible and then the very great experiences that I've had with anal sex. To drive the point home - there's a reason why I'm still having it haha. However, as it's been said, it's really not for everyone.
But first things first:
THE CLEANING:
Sure you can get away without cleaning, but don't be surprised if you get more coming out than going in if you don't clean. Usually you can tell if somethings coming up, but I will say that on more than one occasion me and my boyfriend have had to stop midway because of the unpleasant idea of ...well, s**t (we're all, presumably, adults here, we can handle this I hope.) So cleaning is more than just recommended or encouraged, it's an implied must.
So what to do? What posters around here have said is all good...most of it.
If you have one of those bidets or shower heads that you can remove and hopefully use while sitting in the toilet that's perfect, it's less messy, but you really have to ignore to the best of your ability that you will see something. It's not a clean experience. It's not looking at a Monet or a Van Gogh. The quicker you build your mind past that, the quicker you get used to the experience, and thus the quicker you can spice up your sex life or make the curiosity of anal sex as an occasional fun practice (I admit to having opted out of it from time to time, but mostly out of laziness.)
You can even buy a pack of latex gloves to make sure you get really clean. Yes. I'm saying to go in there. It's sanitary if you keep the gloves CLEAN, it's safer and it will even get you used to the experience. Then when you're clean and you know that you're clean you can even use your bare fingers (clean them!) to experience what that feels like. Make sure your nails are short or not sharp or jagged, and if you decide not to cut your nails you will always be able to have a good control of what part of your finger you're using - and you should be using the front of your finger not the VERY VERY tip. Generally speaking, it's not the "in and out" motion that does the trick, it's a rubbing around. I, of course, do not have a vagina, but I can't imagine that during female masturbation, you don't use your hand as a jackhammer. Be gentle. It's skin for god's sake. And it's sex, rough or not, there's a conscious, healthy limit to the quick and the hard.
And as for soaps - just no. I did once use Summer's Eve for an extra clean feel, but I stopped eventually and really it never made any more of a difference. IF you decide to use this, and I only recommend anything that's like Summer's Eve (hypoallergenic and all that stuff), be spare and use small amounts. Still the soap is not an imperative practice, but it does give a feeling of being cleaner.
Now for the feeling of water in your anus - it's a bit unpleasant. Your rectum and colon will harden and push out. Normally they push up against something, but when they push against themselves they create a very strong sensation inside you. It's bearable, but definitely not a good preview to anal intercourse. If you find that you can make it through that, then good for you. If you feel this is too much of hassle, it is very understandable. There are plenty of other ways to engage in other sexy taboos, and it's fine if anal is not your thing.
Afterward I always rub some Vaseline OUTSIDE of the anus, just a bit. Also keeps from any sweat that might build up. Skin is skin, anywhere you go, if you clean too long before the action goes down you might not smell great. It's nice to help this out. Even some creams will be nice, but nothing that has alcohol as it will dry you up. I did however once use Chanel No. 5 (Mademoiselle herself would turn in her grave) and it had a strangely arousing scent for my boyfriend.
And another tip in response to the person who said to starve yourself or the mentioning of only milk products: really? I mean I generally make sure I don't eat much before having sex - anal or not. It's just not a pleasant feeling to be all bloated from eating and then start thrashing around with your man - you know, if you're into that - so I agree, don't eat before it, but don't starve yourself. I have had hours worth of sex with meals that have been down to almost 2 hours apart once I feel that I can move normally again.
Don't do anything wilder than a decent cleaning, if you're going to do it at all. No need to starve yourself.
Also it helps that if you are cleaning with a douche or something alike, you empty out what you can at first. Once you see the coast is clear wait. Stand up, walk around if you must and wait till some of it keeps moving down. It's a process. Look up a picture of the colon and you'll understand.
I always do this before I shower, and with the rest of my shower activities it takes me up to an hour but it has taken me a little under 45 minutes before, with successfully clean sex following. It also really encourages bowel movements so digestion is faster. It's always good to go to the bathroom as many times as you eat (if you eat three meals a day, you s**t three meals a day) that way you have as little toxic residue leftover inside you. It's generally healthy, so there are benefits to this other than an other worldly orgasms. And so we segue into it.
THE SEX:
When you're ready to give it a go, you're not ready yet. First there is a very necessary amount of stimulation, mentally and physically
It's good if he, or she for the gals that strap on, just lightly pushes the tips of the fingers (avoid nails) and rubs around the anus and into where the genitals are. Be kind to yourself, do it slowly, create heat. The anus is a muscle, just like when you work out you need to get it warm and flexible, and if you're not even doing something similar for the vagina then that's a problem too. Foreplay is VERY necessary, and always fun. Don't make this too formulaic, I once just sat on the edge of my boyfriend's hip to massage myself around that area with his bone and it felt nothing short of amazing.
Then you can proceed with the fingers. Now I have to say, he may be good with the fingers, but you are always better. This of course can create some sort of conflict but if he doesn't mind, work yourself while he/she works you somewhere else. That dual sensation can get very rewarding and a nice intense build up. Again, keep a flow, keep it reasonably creative, and keep it fun.
If he/she insists so much and you decide to let them in, then tell them to go slowly, and to remember that it's not the "in and out" that gets the job done, but a rub, a massaging. Circles. Whatever works, just avoid the nail. I HAVE had cuts before, and they're treatable but still discomforting. It's imperative you remember just how sensible all this tissue and muscle is. With a penis it's fine, with nails, not so much. (And if you do bleed, do NOT go through extreme measures to clean yourself!!! Water alone, will have to do. Keep an eye on it, if the problem persists, though that's never happened with me, then consider a visit to the doctor.)
You'll know when you're ready. The walls of the rectum will feel more easily relaxed around your fingers, and if by this point the coast has been...clean, then you're more than ready for the flesh and blood. This does not mean he/she will just go in there all in a rush. Lubricants are essential and condoms are recommended and basically essential as well. You'd avoid any unnecessary possible complications with that (although I've never had a problem that I've been aware of with the occasionally bareback). Remind him to ease in slowly. The first time it goes in, it could feel really really great. If it cramps up, and you will most definitely know if it is cramping up, go back, warm up some more.
Now it's important to note that the anus will have blood flow into it (that's how the walls of the anus harden up to push out feces) so the flow from your genitals might flow into the anus eventually which means the anus will be tightening. This will feel good for the dominant role and it might cause some discomfort for you, but you'll be able to find a very rewarding balance eventually. Take it slow! It's all worth the build up.I've encountered some VERY intense orgasms as a result of anal sex, but it's a matter of keeping movement going. Sex is sex, no matter how you do it, you gotta keep at it, keep the moment going, keep both your minds engaged. It's psychology and physiology - keep both turned on. And talk is not novice and it's not trashy. If you're in a healthy relationship I believe the communication can be made possible and easy.
Afterward, clean. Even if you're deadbeat tired, clean. Just rinse out whatever is left in there (especially you naughties who opted out of the condom!).
There is a strong need for communication throughout the practice, especially if this is something new you're trying. If it hurts, don't think it's going to get better by just leaving it alone, do something, subtle if necessary, to make it feel good. You may be submitting, but you still have control of your body. And a little wrestling never hurt in bed.
Stay safe, happy and healthy! Sorry for the sermon, I felt you needed a more connected scenario. I'll try monitoring this in case you all have any questions. Good luck! ;-)

"Some people also douche / enema (use a pump device / shower attachment / douche bag to introduce a stream of water into the rectum) in order to achieve an internal rinse; but the general medical consensus is that this is dangerous, can cause internal damage and removes the naturally protective mucus lining and leaves you significantly more susceptible to infection by HIV and other STDs."
This is from WikiAnswers, you can find similar answers elsewhere though.

The enema does the same cleaning, if you are going this route, then use a 2 quart enema bag and
get a good cleaning out. The disposable has chemicals which could cause irritation.
Play it safe with an enema bag and plain water, use it until your returns are clear.

As many have said, don't use external-only products for your insides! Don't use lotions, or soaps, or other things that contain ingredients that are irritating, including spermicidal type lubes with nonoxynol-9 or such. Lubes that work well depend on if you're using a condom or not. When not using a condom, you have many choices, like water or silicone or oil based lubes. A non-scented plain "heavy mineral oil", available at grocery and drug stores, is great for non-condom use. Don't use "baby oil", as this is a lighter formulation, and often contains scents or other ingredients. When using a condom, especially latex ones, don't use oil products, as this breaks down the condom. Instead, use water or silicone based lubes. I find that some of the water based lubes can be irritating if you have a long session with your partner. The silicone based ones are better for this, and can even be used in water. Shower or hot tub anyone?
All dildos are not the same! Some dildos are really meant for vaginal use only, as they have too much surface texture for anal use, and can be irritating, leaving you raw if used for too long anally. Dildos for anal use have a very smooth, usually shiny surface, and they don't cause this problem.
Its important to check yourself before anal sex. If you have a poop that is ready, or almost ready, to come out, then you really should wait until it does come out. Why? If you have a poop in your rectum, not only is it messy, but anal sex can be internally painful for the recipient, due to there not being enough room for the penis, which can push up against the poop, making the poop go backwards, causing pain to your innards. I highly recommend checking yourself to see if you have a poop ready to come out. In the shower, put some lube on one of your fingers, and slide that finger carefully in as far as you can, to feel if your rectum is empty. If it is, you're ready. If its not, you need to wait for that poop to make its way out. If you strain to try and get it out, this can cause hemorrhoids, so be careful. By the way, using a dildo to check if you're ready is not the best way, since you can't feel if there's any poop inside you. A finger works way better for this.
Some notes on digestion: The better your digestion is, the better your anal sex will be. Poor digestion, including diarrhea or other poop that does not come out cleanly and easily, can irritate your insides, and can make anal sex unpleasant for the recipient, and messy too. One person on here suggested eating lots of milk products, and this is NOT a good suggestion, as many people, especially people outside of their teen years, can not properly digest milk products, especially whole milk. This is called lactose intolerance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactose_intolerance, which affects about 70% of adults. You should eat a diet that contains good amounts of natural fiber, like green veggies. When you can poop regularly and easily, this is the best.
Enemas can be good for a quick rinsing out, but they should not be over used, since they will remove the natural secretions that line and protect your rectum. If your digestion is good, then usually an enema is not needed, as the poop will come out cleanly, leaving no traces. After a poop, if you only need to wipe once or twice until you're fully clean, then this is the sign of a good poop.
For people who experience pain during anal sex, especially first timers, the most important thing is to relax. For people in good health, with no hemorrhoids or anal fissures, the pain of anal sex is usually caused by the sphincter muscle not being relaxed enough. This pain could be compared to the pain you feel when you have a cramp in one of your muscles, of pushing a muscle past its limits. In the case of your sphincter muscle, the pain is caused by stretching this muscle further than you are letting it expand and relax. Your sphincter muscle has many years of unconscious automatic control, learned from when you were very young. You have to learn a new behavior, to be able to relax it so that anal sex is pleasant. Gentle massage with lube and fingers is very helpful, and a tongue can be even more helpful if all are agreeable. And after saying that being relaxed enough is important, its also true that being TOO relaxed can affect your partner. If you are too relaxed then your partner may not get enough sensation on his penis. The best thing overall is to be "firmly relaxed". A contradiction? Not if it feels good for both people.

The only real concern i would show is length... There is a spot in your colon that joins into your intestinal tract, and if the penis involved is VERY big it may bump against or even go down this area. This hurts immensely and can cause complications. You can actually train your body to get used to this and i've heard of people taking objects three feet long into their tailholes, forcing said object into the intestine itself. I have experienced this first hand (not THAT size of course) and must say it feels just odd. VERY good, but odd.
Another concern is width... When something is inserted into your as****e that is VERY large it will hurt no matter how slow you take it. I personally have taken such things to an extreme... My boyfriend and I are into some pretty odd stuff, like toys. Very, very big toys. I have taken a dildo four inches wide and eleven inches long. Crazy, I know, but true.
This one time we didn't stretch it or go slow at all. He just slathered it up with lube and went to work. It slid in easy enough and I'll admit, it hurt, but it was so amazing it felt good. He didn't take it slow either, he simply rammed fast and hard, this too hurt but it was good. In fact that particular time was the most amazing I've ever had.
I don't know, maybe i'm just one-of-those-people, agree or disagree, i don't care. Anal is still the best form of sex to me :-D

Blunt Answer Alert *********
Take a c**p, then take a shower, wash your hands and the outside of your butt with soap, then insert a clean finger with lube and gently wiggle it around inside, pull it out rinse your finger off and let the shower wash over your butt while your doing this, insert your finger or finger(s) again wiggle again and repeat the process until your finger comes out clean and when you push the excess lube out it's not containing feces. It's simple... Also this loosens you up a bit in preperation for the big one!
