That right time to do so can be decided on by the one who is undertaking their vow of chastity, or in many cases by their partner who has mandated this time of abstinence. And while coming to an agreement to not orgasm for a set time sounds a little challenging to some, that\u2019s easy mode compared to the extent of some chastity regiments, in which the male isn\u2019t even allowed to get an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/erection\/\">erection<\/a> until their partner says so.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And how would a guy stop himself from getting an erection for a long period of time? This is where cock cages come in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>So, what\u2019s a cock cage?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A cock cage is exactly what it sounds like\u2014a cage that goes over your dick. It provides a metal frame for the shaft and head of the penis, and usually a ring at the base that your cock and balls go through which, when closed, locks the cage in place.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Why do men wear cock cages?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quite simply, it is to make them unable to get erections, thereby fully withholding from pleasure until they or their partner chooses to allow it. The partner in this case is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/role-call-what-are-different-kinds-dominants-submissives\/\">dominant<\/a>, called the Keyholder, because they literally have the keys that can open the cock cage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some wearers can even go months at a time wearing one, taking it off only when their dom tells them they can take it off. In the meantime, while their cock is caged, the wearer will be constantly aware of the cage\u2019s presence, making it a very prolonged lead up to eventual release. Oh, and wearing a cock cage often means the wearer needs to sit down to pee while it&#8217;s on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Okay, how do I get started?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Very slowly! Before spending your hard-earned money on a real cock cage, which can run you anywhere from $200 \u2013 $3,000, start by simply not masturbating. If you\u2019ve gone through a whole No-Fap November without touching yourself, then consider yourself ready to start experimenting with the real thing. Pursue the offerings of beginner\u2019s cock cages<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0and see which ones fit your unique dimensions. Then, try wearing it for an entire day, wearing it overnight and under your normal clothes to get used to it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before handing over the keys to your Keyholder, make sure to establish ground rules regarding the amount of time you are willing to wear the cock cage and have the Keyholder work within that time frame. Establish a safe word in the event that you absolutely must remove the cage, but most important of all, make sure there\u2019s a lot of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/importance-trust-bdsm\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trust and communication<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in your relationship before you go locking it up!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Male chastity\u2014the act of men avoiding or inhibiting their sexual desires\u2014is a huge turn-on for guys seeking submission or building up to a much more explosive release later on.
