Hello, Beloved Chastity Lovers!

What is male chastity? Why would someone wear a cock cage? What’s in it for them? How does one prepare for chastity? Geez Louise! It seems there are a lot of questions regarding male chastity. The good news is, I just completed Locktober. After reading this article, my chastity diary, and my interviews with Mistress Adreena and Key Barret, then you should be good to go. Are you ready? Alrighty then! Let’s dive in, shall we?

What is male chastity?

In a nutshell: it is a plastic, a silicone, or metal cage that fits over a man’s gonads making it virtually impossible to get a hard-on. And you know what that means, right? No shagging!

Don’t try and be a chastity hero

On the 30th of September 2021 I had a session with the Pulchritudinous Goddess – Mistress Adreena Angela! AND THAT my friends, was the first time I wore a cock cage. And the next day, I jumped cockfirst into Locktober. What the HELL was I thinking??? Although it seemed like a great idea at the time, I was not prepared at all. But I had to learn the hard way which led me to write this article. I hope you can learn from my mistakes and avoid ball-slippages, cock soreness, ball pain, ball burns and scrotum irritation.

Don’t get cocky, literally!!

This is the way I looked at it when I took on the “Locktober challenge” – I have strong willpower, I am self-disciplined and find it easy abstaining from ejaculation. I know, it sounds cocky, Right? Taking all that into account, I figured I was good to go. Hmm… How wrong was I? Very.

First things first though. I filled out Mistress Adreena’s chastity form. Once I was accepted, I made payment. During that time I had to interview Mistress Adreena as well as Key Barret, who is a serious chastity player. You can check out both interviews here.

Buying a cock cage for the first time

Once I was accepted by Mistress Adreena, I had to look into purchasing a cock cage. This was a lot harder than I expected. Just going by what I read online, it seems that plastic cock cages are advised for first-timers, as it is light, tight and feels right. I purchased the Black Holy Trainer V4 Chastity Device. Size: small. The reason why I bought this particular cage is because it comes with many different ring sizes. My cock cage got delivered just a few days prior to my session with Mistress Adreena. However, there was one itsy bitsy teeny weeny problem. I couldn’t fit my balls in the ring. I didn’t want to force it and cause damage to my family jewels. Fortunately for me, I had a session coming up with Mistress Adreena, so I waited until then.

First-time caged

So it seems that Mistress Adreenas technique was a lot better than mine. Although it took some time, we got there in the end. I felt awfully chipper. Mistress Adreena locked my cock in chastity for the first time in my life. I was first locked in a 50mm ring and it felt comfortable.

Getting pegged in chastity

Holy kamoley! It was one hell of a ride, I felt mentally and sexually submissive. Being pegged while caged is on a whole ‘nother level of badassery. It’s almost like I forgot about my cock and focused on being fucked. I guess it’s fair to say that it was no longer about my cock anymore. It was about Mistress Adreena’s cock. As Mistress Adreena was giving it her all, guess what happened next? My testes had slipped through the gap between the ring and the cage.

Ball-slippage

Is when your balls slip out/pop out through the gap between the ring and the cage. This usually happens when the ring is too big. This happened many times during Locktober, too many to count. However, there is a solution – to reduce the size of the gap. We’ll get to that shortly.

Getting in the ring for the first time, with no help

I woke up on the 1st of Locktober feeling anxious. I needed to work on “getting my balls in the ring technique” So, first things first, I used a considerable amount of lube. Secondly, I worked on my technique. Being my first attempt, I kind of went in headfirst really – pun intended! Then I moved on to my right ball, I pulled it through the ring. I took a deep lungful of air and pulled my left ball through. I slide the cage on until it is in the correct position. And finally, I make sure the key is aligned before locking the device. Voilà! I couldn’t be more excited at this point. With that said, that lasted no longer than an hour. My right teste popped out of the ring. And it kept on happening. So, it seems that the 50mm base ring is too big. But the 45mm ring seemed too small. I gave it a go, but I couldn’t do it, I couldn’t fit my balls in the ring. I freaked out. And said a little prayer.

“Dear Lord of chastity, show me solutions to my cage issues and direct me to innovative solutions I might not think of on my own.”

In a flash of intuition, I had it. I recalled reading an article about a guy who had the same issue. He used baby oil gel to fit in a smaller ring. So I did the same thing. And guess what, guys! It friggin’ worked – I managed to get my balls through a 45mm base ring.

Ongoing “Ball-slippages”

Although I found a solution to reduce the size of the gap between the cage and the ring by using a smaller ring, I still had ongoing ball-slippages. On Day 7 – I started considering a smaller base ring. That’s when I decided to give the 40mm ring a shot. As per usual, I used plenty of baby oil gel. I put the ring over my right teste and then pushed it through, and then did the same with the left teste. Before locking the device, I pulled all the scrotum skin through the ring and gave myself an inner smile, as I looked at myself restrained in a snug cage.

Although the 40mm base ring has a snug fit, on day 11 – I had another ball-slippage. On Day 12 – I woke up and felt a severe pain in my lower abdominal area. So I took off my cage, just to make sure the little fella was OK. On Day 13 – I woke up and felt a burning sensation under my ball sack, it felt painful. Although I was ok I was getting a little concerned about potential nerve damage caused by wearing a ring that is too tight. On Day 17 – I had another ball slippage. On Day 19 – I found a pronounced lump on my right testicle. And from that day onwards, I had no more ball-slippages.

To cut a long story short, I completed Locktober. I’m a bit disappointed in myself that I made a lot of mistakes, but, at the same time, I’m very proud of myself that I stuck it out.

Chastity Advice and Tips

1. Measure your Goddamn cock!

Here is a quote from my interview with Mistress Adreena:

“Getting the right fitting cage is absolutely imperative both for your comfort and health, and for long term wear. So make sure you measure yourself carefully and test out your device before you begin- rather like wearing in a new pair of shoes before you go for a night out!” ~ Mistress Adreena

It’s pretty clear now that a lot of the mishaps I experienced during Locktober could have been avoided if I had listened to Mistress Adreena’s advice.

So, fellas, do yourselves a favour and measure your Goddamn cocks!

2. How do I properly measure my cock for a male chastity device?

If my guess is right, the next question is – “how do I properly measure my cock for a male chastity device?” And that my friends is a great question.

Here you go.

3. What lube/lotion to use

Initially, I used a water-based lube, but I found it to be too sticky. So, I moved on to baby oil gel. I found that it worked well for me. However, baby oil gel is very greasy. If overused it can cause ball-slippages as well as chafing. Towards the end, I used just a small amount of baby oil gel around the base ring after showering. Here are some other recommendations from serious chastity players.

Aveeno moisturising lotion

Coconut oil

Vaseline

4. How to deal with cock soreness, chafing, and burning sensation under the ring

I found that after applying diaper rash cream to the inside of the cage, and to the ring and around the sack has helped a lot with soreness and chafing.

5. How to tell if the base ring is too small/big?

If you can fit a fingertip under the base ring, then that means it’s not too tight. Having said that, if you can fit in more than a fingertip then that means the ring is too big, and if you can’t even get the first knuckle in, the ring is too small.

6. Hold an emergency key

Please bear in mind that the key should only be used for emergencies. For example: readjusting the device after a ball-slippage, or major discomfort or to clean the cage every now and again to maintain good hygiene.

7. Do your research

Read articles, such as the one you are reading now. Read books like Locked-In Love by Key Barret. You can Learn a lot of great lessons from serious chastity players, and from first-timers like myself who speak openly about their fuck ups.

8. What would I do differently next time around?

I would look into purchasing a custom-made cage.

9. Cock first or balls first when fitting into the ring?

Initially, I went in cock first. Later, I switched to balls first. The “balls first” technique seems to be easier when you’re trying to get the base ring on.

10. Are you looking for a Chastity Keyholder?

If yes, I would highly recommend the Pulchritudinous Goddess – Mistress Adreena.

Mistress Adreena is a caring, nurturing, and supportive chastity keyholder. She is very passionate and devoted to offering a memorable keyholding service. Experiencing Locktober with Mistress Adreena was like nothing I had ever experienced before. Furthermore, Mistress Adreena is one of the most inspiring people I know.
