Frequently Asked Questions about Chastity and Male Chastity Devices
What Materials are these Chastity Devices Made From?
Male chastity devices are available in a variety of materials, with the most popular being soft silicone rubber, hard Perspex, and stainless steel, and each has their own advantages and disadvantages. The soft silicone rubber variety are very comfortable to wear and are slightly stretchy. However, because of this, they tend not to instil a feeling of helplessness that should go with chastity. The Perspex variety, being a hard plastic are a halfway house, being sturdier and more unforgiving, but still not as imposing as the strong steel type. The polymer types of device are usually all-enclosing, so that the penis is hidden away, further adding to emasculation and are available in a range of colours. Cleaning the polymer type is usually a matter of washing them in lots of hot, soapy water and rinsing them in clean water. This should be sufficient to keep any build-up of unhygienic bacteria on the cage. Both plastic types are available in an array of colours, which can be matched to suit the attire that you may be wearing.
The stainless-steel type of cage chastity device is hard, initially cold, and have no give in them, so they really do have an extra imposing feel about them. Steel devices are based on a cage made from strong bar materials. Because they are a stainless material, they tend to be more hygienic and easier to clean than the plastic ones, and can even be boiled in water to make them completely clean and germ free. This is important if the device is going to be worn for a longer period of time, as grime can build up.
Steel cages can be kept in this way for many years, but the polymer variety will start to degrade eventually, and it is recommended that these be replaced periodically to ensure that they remain in the best condition possible.
What Sized Tubes are available in these chastity devices?
The cage type chastity devices come in different sizes so that you can choose the one that is right for you. When selecting one, you need to consider a number of factors.
The cage should always touch the penis from shaft to head, but not too close so as to be uncomfortable. You may be caging your penis for twenty-four hours a day, for several days in a row, you need to have a tube size that lets your penis function normally – albeit without an erection - and allows you to go about your life without unnecessary discomfort. While most polymer devices are only available in one diameter size, they can be supplied in either short cage or long cage versions, so are able to accommodate most penis sizes. A short cage version may have a tube length of 48mm, while a long cage version could have a tube length of 60mm. The inside diameter is usually the same for both types.
Larger devices are available and the black caterpilar chastity device has a cage length of 110mm, and internal diameter that varies between 36 and 56 mm. This device is a segmented cage design that allows easy fitting but prohibits interference with the subject's penis. If you are interested in a wider fit, a Holy Trainer chastity device, with a diameter of 45mm might be less of a squeeze.
If you are worried about the constriction of a steel or hard plastic cage, you could always start off with a highly pliable soft body chastity cage. Made of very forgiving lightweight polymer, these are soft enough so as not to hurt if the fit is a little tight, so it is able to expand to make the fit comfortable, but not soft enough to allow a submissive partner to attain an erection.
Taking the constriction element to less of an extreme, if you want your slave to experience a feeling or helplessness but without being constricted, you could always choose a locking pouch sack. This soft leather bag secures around the base of the cock to prevent removal and delivers comfort with restriction. It isn't hard Chasity but it can still deliver.
What Is a Back Ring?
A back ring is the part of a chastity device that secures the device to the user and prevents it being taken off easily. Male chastity devices are not usually one part, but are composed of two main parts that join together to form the completed device. These two parts are identified as the tube and the back ring. The back ring becomes a part that anchors the tube to the penis.
The back ring typically locates behind the penis and testicles and encompasses the whole lot in one go. To be effective and not allow easy removal of the chastity device, the back ring must be a good snug fit, but not essentially deliver pain, though this can be an option.
On most products, the back ring can be either a fixed-size or have a selection of interchangeable rings that prevents release while still allowing blood to flow to the penis. Back rings are generally available in standard sizes, such as 40mm, 45mm, and 50mm. The perfect ring should fit comfortably around the base of the penis and testicles without being uncomfortable. To be able to do this you need to be able to measure the circumference of this area and determine which size will give the best combination of fit and security. The best way to be able to achieve this to make a good measurement.
Measuring the area at the base of the penis and testicles involves using a soft tape measure to encompass circumference while holding the penis and testicles in one hand and out of the way- you may need your partner to help with this part. You then need to divide the measurement by the factor 3.14 to get the diameter. For example:
- If the measured circumference is around 160mm, then divide this by 3.14 and round it down to get 50mm diameter. This means that you are most suited to a 50mm back ring.
- If the measured circumference is smaller at around 125mm, then divide this by 3.14 and round it down to get 40mm diameter. This means that you are most suited to a 40mm back ring.
- The ‘standard' sized ring is 4.5mm, which fits a penis and testicles circumference of around 145mm.
With this measurement complete, you should then select a chastity device that meets the right size, or comes with a selection of rings in that include your particular size.
Back rings come in three basic fitting types: Basic ring, hinged, and padlocked. The basic ring is a solid ring that slips over the penis and testicles to fit snuggly behind them both. The hinged ring has a snap-fitting, while the padlocked variety is hinged and locked in place with a small lock once it has been closed. A slight variation of this might be the spider web device which incorporates a hand-cuff style locking mechanism, that is released with a key.
Of these fitting styles, the padlock type is probably the best for beginners, but has the disadvantages of possibly catching on clothes. The hinged back ring allows easy installation, but could be removed by the user. The solid ring is used by seasoned user, and needs care when fitting it.
Is Male Chastity Good for a Marriage or a Relationship?
Male chastity not only healthy for monogamous relationships but can help keep a man’s mind focused. Even the most faithful of men can sometimes stray via masturbation, and the chastity device prevents that. In this way, the man is fully focused on his partner and is able to give their full attention to them, particularly if they hold the key to their genitals!
By having their sexual activity curtailed, the man can focus on other aspects of their partner, making for a much stronger relationship and greater sexual energy when they are periodically released. Male chastity shouldn’t be seen as a benefit rather than a bind.
There have been some views that, if a male is prepared to enter chastity with their partner then it is a nail in the coffin of the relationship, but nothing could be further from the truth. By becoming chaste, you are declaring your commitment to your partner and actually making your relationship stronger.
Are There Older Couples Who Practice Male Chastity and Submission?
Older couples can use chastity as a means of overcoming some of the problems that can be associated with aging libidos such as performance anxiety, and even erectile dysfunction. Chastity devices can remove the need to perform, and actually make the relationships between older couples much healthier.
Sometimes, chastity is used to repair a broken relationship, but in the same way it is also a device that can be used to strengthen an already strong relationship even further. These tend to be flourishing relationships in which a commitment has already been made, and the partners are looking as to how they might further cement their commitment. Furthermore, chastity requires a certain trust that usually comes with a long-term relationship, so is ideal for those who have become comfortable with each other and understand the intimacy that well-established and trusting relationships bring.
How Do You Clean the Penis While locked in a Male Chastity Device?
Regular cleaning can be facilitated by the application of show-gel type soap and a good shower head to apply clean water. Cleaning in this way can be carried out on a daily basis and is effective at keeping your genitals clean without having to remove the device. Because most devices are constructed of either stainless steel or plastic, cleaning in this way will not adversely affect them.
However, periodic removal of the device – usually under the direction of the other partner, and even for a few minutes at a time – can allow for a very thorough clean and ensure full hygiene.
How to Get Your Penis into a Male Chastity Cage?
This also means that when first fitting the cage – or even at any subsequent times following periodic removal – you have to ensure that you do it in the best way to ensure maximum comfort. Of course, you can only fit a male chastity device to a flaccid penis, so you must ensure that there is no stimulation while fitting it. You could also use a good, water-based lubricant to ensure that there is minimum discomfort when fitting.
In most cases, it is pertinent to have the dominant partner fit the male chastity device and lock it in place to establish rules and make the fitting more relevant.
Does Male Chastity Improve Sexual Intercourse?
In a word, yes. Any abstinence will have a healthy impact on your sexual prowess, since you are either not having or are denied sexual congress of any sort. Not having any kind of sexual release will have a two-fold effect in men; firstly., it will allow stocks of sperm to build up and that has the effect of increasing desire and the need to procreate. Secondly, not performing itself increases the desire to perform, and these two factors combine to push up the male sex drive.
However, if you are being forced into chastity by a dominant partner, you will have to conform to their wishes, and that in itself can be a huge driver for increasing sexual performance…when you are allowed to actually to do it.
What are Physical and Mental Effects of a Wearing Male Chastity Belt?
This splits into two factors; physical effects and psychological effects, and it is best to deal with each separately, though there are some significant cross-overs.

If your partner insists on the device being fitted for long periods of time – even with short periodic removal for cleaning – the soft tissue of the penis can change, leading to prostatitis. If the device is fitted for long durations it can also lead to erectile dysfunction and fibrosis of muscles, which can take some weeks o recover once the device is finally removed.
Mental Effects: As we have already said, the device will remove desire, therefore, your desires will soon learn to moderate themselves and you will soon subliminally learn not to either have erotic thoughts, or will contain them. Also, while you may not immediately notice it, you will also become significantly more submissive towards your partner. This can actually become a major feature of the relationship and the device wearer may become submissive to the point where they will no longer challenge their dominant partner on any issue at all.
Both the physical and mental effects of wearing a chastity device can combine to truly make the wearer both submissive and physically unable to have a continue a non-submissive relationship.
What Sexual Feeling Should a Male Get from Being in Chastity?
Actually, while you may initially feel thrilled by the closed feeling of a male chastity device, in the longer term, you are likely to become devoid of sexual feelings in the entirety. The main point of chastity is to create a submissive relationship in which the submissive partner chooses only to serve and does not take part in an active sexual arrangement. A male chastity device will prevent excessive masturbation, and is likely to make other, non-sexual, aspects of the relationship prominent.

Devices such as this usually result in a more loving relationship, as the question of sex is removed from the equation.

In the first instance, you should select a device that is the right fit for your penis. This will prevent any chaffing or soreness, and will also ensure that it can be worn for extended periods of time without the risk of serious damage to the penis structure or nerves.

How Does a Male Chastity Device Work?
A male chastity device is a metal or plastic form that fits snugly over the flaccid penis, and usually locks in place with a sturdy ring that encompasses the penis and scrotum. Some variations may actually have a belt that fits around the waist. Once in place, the device disallows some normal functions such as erection and ejaculation, leaving the user no option but to be subservient to their partner.
Male Chastity devices are usually secured in place using a padlock that is attached with a key or a combination, to which the dominant partner has access. It is possible to urinate with the device in place, so they can be fitted and left for long periods of time, which may be as much as several months.
