Cock ring

I have been thinking about getting a cock ring, any suggestion on it? And how does it feel?

There are lots of different types of cock rings but I view them as being in either two categories:

1) decorative / jewelry

2) functional- by restricting blood flow out of the cock thus keeping it hard during sex. They are not meant to be worn for hours on end because they could do harm because they do restrict blood flow.

Regardless of which type of cock ring you want to choose, you will need to get one that fits you. Think of it like getting the right shoe size. Men's cocks and balls come in different sizes and you'll need to buy several and see what works for you.

I have only the functional types that are stretchy silicone. Some are way to small while others are too stretchy. I was in a sex shop and the lady allowed me to take several out of the package and see how stretchy each one was with my hands- I did not try any on in the middle of the store 😃

I would say out of the 7 or 8 that I have, maybe two are good and the rest don't fit or are very uncomfortable.

As far as the jewelry types of cock rings go, you will need to find one that fits you and is comfortable. These cock rings are usually made of metal. Like all jewelry it is meant to be showed to others. In this case a nude beach is good place to wear one and if they are fitted correctly they will be comfortable and not restrict blood flow.

So do your research and be prepared to buy several before you find what works for you.

Be very careful with metal ones.

You may easily get them on when flaccid but find impossible to remove if you become erect.

People have occasionally needed grinders to remove metal ones once they become erect.

My late wife Barbara had me make them out of leather with snaps to her specs as to size. You can get every thing you need from Tandy Leather including different pattern stamps, snaps, and dies. The ones she had me make last time, around 1990, had two snaps and oak leaf embossed.

Good starter: Oxballs Thruster - https://www.liberator.com/oxballs-thruster-cockring.html

Very stretchy, so virtually anyone can get it on and off easily. Comfortable for extended wear.

Over the years, I've tried many different types of cock rings made out of leather, metal, hard rubber, soft plastic, silicone, & who knows what else. For a beginner just starting to experiment with rings, I recommend getting a variety pack of various sized soft & stretchy rings that are easy to get on & off. After you find a diameter that works for you, then try different materials & designs. Here's an example from Amazon:

As far as a cock ring feels--When it's sized right, has a good constriction in the right places, and you don't leave it on too long, the feeling is amazing! I feel like my cock is much bigger and harder and more sensitive than any other time.

Enjoy & play safe!

I feel like my cock is much bigger and harder and more sensitive than any other time.

My experience checks all those boxes, however I get so sensitive I explode in a moment... Great fun though, while it lasts...

I'd also support the Oxballs suggestion, their products always seem to live up to expectations.

I've had cheap basics cock rings before, they didn't last that long and were so thin that they felt as though they were digging in when I was fully erect. Never tried a metal one.

The biggest problem I have is that I get squeamish about how veiny my dick looks after a couple of minutes lol.

Got myself 3 pcs Dr Joel cock ring, got it and I do not know how to use and googled first time it's so difficult to put my cock and balls together somehow only 1 ball went in.

And then somehow found a perfect way first put the ring on the cock and put some lube and stretch it to put your balls .

The relatively cheap vibrating ones are great

Are you interested in only a ring for the end of your cock or a cock and ball ring to go around your cock & balls together? Also are you planning to wear the cock ring for others to see such as at a nudist resort, swingers gathering and such. I have some good places to purchase and advice from trying and testing quite a few already finding ones for myself.

If you are using small (tight) and or metal/not stretchy rubber rings, you put the penis through the ring first, followed by ONE ball. After the first one has been pushed all the way through, then do the second one. If you are using a constrictive ring, both balls will not go through at the same time. Once the first ball is through the ring and into the scrotal sac, the second ball will go through much more easily. Lubricating the penis and scrotum also helps especially when using a tight ring.

I've used a silicon triple ring that is all-in-one: One ring for around the shaft, around the base of the scrotum, and around both. I like how it feels and how it makes my cock and balls look. I don't notice a significant difference in stamina while using it, however, but the visual aspect is worth some experimentation with it, in my opinion. Silicon ones are easy to put on and take off and they have very little risk of you not being able to remove it whenever needed due to its stretchiness.

I use very basic silicone stretchy rings. I have 5 of them I wear in various combinations. All but 1 are about 1/4" in thickness of the ring. One has an inside diameter of 1.25". I use this as a cock & ball ring. Then I put on the 2 with an inside diameter of 1" as ball rings. I then have 1 that is .75" inside diameter I use as a 3rd ball ring. I have a much smaller ring (maybe 1/2" inside diameter and a thickness of the ring of about 1/8") that I also use as a ball ring with the others. I will only wear a combination of 3 or 4 or 5 rings for about 30 minutes. However, I often times wear the largest cock & ball ring and one of the larger cock rings for several days and nights.

In case of metal rings I would always fear that I run into once in never get out problems. I know there are also some with mechanical openings that are held together with strong magnet but here you could easily clamp the delicate tissue. The only ring that worked for me is made from latex in form of a short hose (2-3 cm) little bit smaller as the erected penis. Does not heard and can be removed without any problems.

I find it is really a trial and error thing. I have tried many and it becomes a real personal thing as to fir, comfort, and whether it really does anything for you. Silicone comes in several sizes and seems to be the most comfortable one for me both putting it on and whiles it is on. I have large balls and that also makes a difference. If you want to try a few sizes out just go to any hardware store and buy various rubber washers. Most have a degree of stretch to them.They come in all sizes and you will get the idea of ease of putting it on and off and comfort. When you find the right comfort for you then you can start experimenting with others.

I have been using the Eddie cock ring by Giddy for six or eight months. It's not a true ring but a device specially shaped to fit around the penis. It comes with small bands that hook on to the bottom of the ring which actually complete the circle and apply a small amount of pressure to the cock. It's available in four different sizes so there's one for everyone. They're expensive but I expect they should last for more than a year or so. And I have to say, for me it really works. You put the ring on before you get a hard on. After a little playing, you really start to get hard. After I get in the love tunnel I feel like I'm 18 years old again. Hard as a rock. And when I do cum, I feel each and every spurt like I was a kid jerking off again. They offer size insurance so you can be assured of getting the best fit. If you have trouble getting or keeping it up, give them a try..

Wow! lots of great advice here. i dont know if i can anything more. But, would i will say is, i love all cockrings, love wearing them and love sharing them. and when you find the right one it's like having a favorite teddy bear. lol in fact, i wear my favorite one everywhere, even to work.

Enjoy! Finding the perfect one is great fun!

I have found that a condom works if you cut off the tip and roll what's left down to the base of your penis. i have a hotsprings i go to with a lot of gay and bi guys and I love to wear a cock ring so I can show off and hold a erection. For a long time.

I love using a cock ring! Prefer the metal ones for both cock and balls. 50mm. Make sure you are soft! Pull the scrotum skin thru, with one ball, then coax the other ball thru the ring. Pull the scrotum skin thru, then push the soft cock down into the body, pull the scrotum skin thru and the head comes with it! Maybe I should make a movie LOL

After reading this post it has me wanting to go out and buy one. I have never even thought of getting one but now I will.

I have owned several cockrings, and I don't care much for the hard rubber or steel ones. I much prefer The ones made of silicone, which are more stretchy and comfortable for extended wear.

I prefer to pull my penis through first, then push through 1 ball at a time from the underside. It works for me for both rigid and soft rings.

I wear mine occasioanally when I'm seeing a friend or doing enemas.

I like my heavy metal rings. I like the feel of its weight around the base of my penis and round my balls gently pulling on them as I walk around. I wear it about 3 times a week. As I extend I can add additional rings.
