JUSTUSMEN gives you the lowdown on cock rings.
A BRIEF HISTORY
Cock rings are nothing new. Originating in China, it’s believed guys have used them for thousands of years and the first ones were made from a goat’s eyelid… Eurgh!
TODAY’S COCK RINGS
Luckily, things have moved on and today’s cock rings come in a huge variety of materials including metal, glass, plastic, rubber, silicone and leather.
HOW DO THEY MAKE THINGS BETTER?
When you get turned on, blood flows into your cock causing it to swell and get hard. With a cock ring in place the blood stays in your cock, keeping it harder for longer. When you wear a cock ring, the slight swelling the ring creates makes your cock feel extra hard and adds to the sensation when fucking or masturbating. The sling type cock ring (one of the most popular styles) goes around your cock and balls, and the additional feeling of something gripping your nuts can be very enjoyable.
PUTTING THEM ON
Adjustable cock rings are easy to put on. Simply position it behind you balls or shaft and balls – depending on the design – and fasten to a comfortable, but snug tightness. For solid types slide it down your flaccid cock to the base and gently manoeuvre your balls through it one at a time so it sits behind your nuts and at the very base of your shaft. When wearing the sling or stretch type, the same applies. A few drops of water-based lube can help it slide on more comfortably, as can hair-free balls!
ARE THEY SAFE?
When you use the correct size, cock rings are perfectly safe. However, it’s essential that it’s not painfully tight (especially the solid type) and if your nuts get cold or it’s painful remove the ring as quickly as possible. We fully recommend starting with the flexible or adjustable type as these can easily be removed regardless of your state of erection.
