Aneros vs. Finger

Aneros feels great, but it's not even close to the orgasmic ecstasy of a manual prostate massage! Is this normal?

IMHO, Yes, No and Maybe. What is 'normal' ? What is 'abnormal' ? Many sexual practices/acts which were thought to be perversions or aberrant behaviors in the past are now considered 'normal' in western psychology of human sexuality (e.g. cunnilingus, fellatio & sodomy). Prostate massage has been employed for thousands of years both medically and recreationally. However, certain religious sects, social groups or governing bodies may declare such acts abnormal, unacceptable or even illegal. I don't know if that was the intent of your question.

If you were asking specifically comparing the solo use of a prostate massager (such as an Aneros) versus a manual (digital) massage provided by a skilled, caring masseuse then I agree with you, but even then the perceived well being of the experience is greatly colored by the context. I would call it a typical response between two different methods of providing a prostate massage rather than calling it normal (or the implied opposite) abnormal.
Good Vibes to You !

Yes exactly, solo use of a prostate massager, in my experience, is never as good as a manual (digital) massage by a masseuse.

I'm assuming by masseuse you mean a female massage therapist. Moonbounce. Do you think it would be as good done by a male massage therapist? Have you ever had it done by a man?

i used to have like 70 aneros and 30% manual
now almost 90% of most of my prostate massage is done manually by my wife since she is getting better and better
