How’s That For Size: Trying Out Cock Rings
Cock rings…it’s hard to imagine the huge amount of pleasure a small amount of silicone (or metal) can bring.
To be honest, I had never given them much thought. And then I noticed more and more men wearing cock rings at nude and sex events. I realised I’d resisted too long, denying my cock another form of pleasure. And it was time to rectify this!

What is a cock ring?
For the uninitiated, a basic cock ring fits around the base of your penis and scrotum encircling them both. It slows the blood flow into the shaft of the penis, keeping it fuller – a big plus in its own right – and for many men, feeling more aroused. (Big safety note here: because they do impact blood flow, cock rings shouldn’t be worn for more than 30 minutes at a time.)
My first time wearing cock rings

As a first timer, I admit it felt a little odd putting a big rubber band around my bits, and giving my balls a shove through the opening. But once the ring was fitted, I was feeling the attention! I also found it’s easiest to make it semi-hard first.
Even using a straightforward cock ring – like those included in the Adam and Eve Stamina 3 Piece Silicone Cock Ring Set – my dick felt more sensitive to touch. My erection felt more receptive to sensation, and seemed more engorged.
Along with the physical pleasure, there is definitely a visual element to using cock rings. Seeing how hard my cock had become was very hot! And all due to one little ring.
Some rings separate your cock and balls, designed for those who like having their scrotum tugged. I tried the Pipedream C-Ringz Cock & Balls Support Ring. Getting yourself into this requires a tiny bit of manipulation, as you first fit the lower ring by pulling your balls through it, which stretches them a little, then you insert your semi-hard cock into the upper ring. Once I was strapped in, and let myself go with the restricted feeling provided by the device, it felt great. There was more of that visual stimulation as, glancing in the mirror, the shiny black, hardware-inspired, TPR surface looked intense, securing my cock and balls.
Trying a vibrating couple’s ring

Lastly, it was time to move things up a notch with some vibrating action. The JimmyJane Tarvos 3.9″ Couples Ring is an extremely sexy device with a handy remote. And one that offers ten different vibration settings, from a low buzz to heavier pulses of stimulation.
As the name suggests it can be used with partners, by placing the vibrating base against your shaft so that both of you can experience the vibrations. However, it is just as handy for solo play, as I discovered!
By angling the ring so that the base sat under my balls and in my perineum area added an incredible jolt of pleasure that my engorged cock visibly responded to.
For me the simple act of adding these electric vibrations – combined with the intense feeling of the cock ring around my penis – took my jerking off experience to an extremely hot new level. And, let’s just say that my orgasm was the kind that left my legs shaking. In fact, it was difficult to stand afterwards! I definitely needed to lie back and enjoy that post-cum glow!
My tips for beginner wearers
If you’re in the same boat I was, here’s some quick notes on cock rings before I go!
1. Start simple
Don’t think a beginner option is taking the easy route – they can still provide plenty of fun. The multi ring sets come with various ring sizes. The beauty of this is you can start with the largest to get used to the feeling, and then experiment with the smaller ones. It is hot to discover that the restriction level that works for you!
2. Watch your pubes!
Because you’re dealing with tight-fitting devices, it can be a good idea to either trim or shave your pubic hair. It’s quite easy – and painful – to get it caught as you take a ring on or off.
3. Partners? Pick your design
If you are looking at partner play, the design can play a role, especially if using with another guy. Most women will find any design stimulating. But if you’re playing with another male, the longer, leaf-shaped devices can be best. Pointed downwards – like I did with the solo play – means they apply plenty of pressure to your perineum to enhance your pleasure. And your partner will feel it too!
