Penis Chastity: All you need to know
Chastity devices have become increasingly more popular among various communities for the past several years. While people who have been using the devices for years, and know how to use them safely and effectively, newcomers may often become overwhelmed. This could mean that they might make a few mistakes when using penis cages.
Naturally, these are things that you’ll want to avoid, which means that there are a variety of things that you’ll need to know. The first of these is to know exactly what a male chastity device is. These are typically a cage that goes around the head or shaft of a penis that makes erections uncomfortable or impossible.
These are held in place with either a testicle ring or waist harness and come in a variety of shapes, as well as sizes. This could naturally lead to many people wondering why men choose to wear chastity cages.
Typically, the cock cage is utilised in BDSM play, with there being a power exchange taking place between the wearer – who will naturally be a submissive – and their partner, the dominant. With this, the wearer will give up power to whoever holds the key to the penis chastity device.
There can be a variety of other reasons why someone will wear a chastity cage, including:
- Appreciation of sexual release
- Increased sex drive
- Training or behavior correction
- Sexual tease & denial.
While many people may be intrigued about wearing a chastity device, it’s not recommended that you simply purchase one and put it on. Instead, there are a variety of things that you’ll need to take into account when doing so. The majority of these will focus on safety, although hygiene and several other considerations will come into play.
How To Measure A Penis For A Chastity Device
There are a variety of factors that will go into making sure that a chastity device fits, which means that you’ll need to take a few measurements before buying one. When doing so, you should make sure that you stay soft, so that the cage fits appropriately.
If you plan on wearing a product that needs a scrotum ring to attach, then you’ll naturally have to measure the diameter of your balls. You should aim to make sure that it’s snug enough not to fall off while also not being tight enough that it cuts off circulation.
In terms of length, you should purchase a cage where only the tip of your penis touches the end so that there’s no compression. Your girth will also play a vital role as if the cage is too tight, then it could cause irritation. Too loose, and it means that you have room for an erection, which could lead to more discomfort than you might want.
Chastity Device Hygiene & Cleaning
Hygiene is paramount when you’re using a penis chastity device, which means that you’ll need to clean it regularly. While this can depend somewhat on how much you use it, it’s often recommended that you do so daily. This is predominantly because it will be attached to a warm, damp area, which could mean that bacteria will build up quickly.
While there can be a variety of ways to clean a chastity device, one of the most recommended is warm water and anti-bacterial soap. Cotton swabs can also help clean any hard to reach areas.
Many men will also wonder whether or not they’ll be able to urinate when they’re wearing a chastity device. In the majority of cases, this shouldn’t be an issue, although it will mean that you’ll have to pay extra attention when you’re cleaning the cage. It’s also recommended that you sit down when you’re peeing.
Alongside this, when you take off a chastity cage, you should inspect yourself for any cuts or scrapes. You should also make sure that you keep the area clean and well-maintained, which should make sure that you’re able to properly wear a device.
Safety Tips
Safety will play a significant role in how to use a penis chastity device, as well as the rest of BDSM play. As such, there are a variety of safety tips that you’ll need to take into account. Naturally, size and fit will play a large role in this, which is why it’s vital that you choose a device that fits you properly.
Alongside this, you’ll need to ensure that you choose a product that’s made from the right material. There are a few notable materials that you should look for when choosing one, with these including:
- Medical grade stainless-steel
- Polycarbonate plastic
- Titanium
- Body safe silicone.
Each of these is quite safe to use and provide various pros and cons. As such, you may want to weigh each of these when choosing which penis chastity device you wish to use. Alongside this, you should ensure that you’re wearing the cage correctly. While this may seem obvious, different products may need to be worn slightly differently.
As such, you should always ensure that you read the packaging of each product before putting it on. While discomfort when getting an erection is one of the goals of a chastity cage, there shouldn’t be any (or much) pain when you’re wearing it. This should mean that, if you’re feeling a certain amount of it, you should take it off as soon as possible.
By keeping each of the above in mind, you should be able to ensure that you can enjoy the chastity device while engaging in any BDSM play.
