Chastity Experiment Day 5: Going to the Beach

Today was a hot and humid day on the coast so I decided to go to the beach later in the afternoon. Due to the hot weather I was wearing my light, Nike surfer shorts with no underwear already on my way to the beach. The last couple of days I wore heavier Carhartt cloth shorts which covered up that chastity cage bulge quite well. But through the light and soft nylon material the bulge was quite visible. I thought everyone would stare at the “thing” between my legs but nothing as such happened. People walked by normally and didn’t pay any attention to me. My fear was probably fueled by me knowing what I was wearing.

Down at the beach I went directly for a swim. The cage didn’t bother me at all when I was swimming. However when I got out the water-soaked cloth stuck to my body and because the cage is made only out off a few rather small steel beams you could lightly see the contours of the cage. But yet again the unusual shape between my legs was probably only recognized by me. What I did get were suggestive looks from girls in their late teens/ early twenties. They probably thought I had a massive dick. I wish I had gotten these looks from their hot looking male companions.

You are probably wondering why there are no pictures. The simple truth is that on the shoot for tomorrow’s review my battery ran out and I forgot my charger at home. I could have taken pictures with my phone but frankly the quality of my Moto G’s camera is so crappy I rather have no pics than so bad ones on here.

Chastity Experiment Day 4: Morning Wood

This was bound to happen: I haven’t jerked off in 4 days and today I had the first morning wood in ages. It was a strange feeling. I felt that I had an erection yet it was not as hard as I would have expected it to be. I would have expected that my dick would press against the steel with full force, trying to break up. But somehow the cage had kept it from getting too hard. It wasn’t uncomfortable at all; I was just annoyed that I couldn’t jerk off and go to sleep again.

Chastity Experiment Day 3: On not being lazy

As said on Monday like every summer I am on vacation visiting my parents. I usually take at least 1 ½ weeks to unwind, take advantage of the scenery to take review pictures outside and just be lazy. That laziness includes not going to the gym and not shaving my body hair – except I have a date (as if that is every going to happen here, but that is a different story). However, when wearing a chastity cage, at least the latter laziness is not advisable. Yesterday and today I caught pubic hair in several small gaps and probably have pulled some out involuntarily. The unexpected pain of getting the sub pubic hair pulled on might be a desirable effect for a top, but I find the stingy pain annoying when taking a walk. Lucky me I am my own key holder so I unlocked myself and shaved. I wonder how long my pubes have to grow again until the hair length becomes a problem again.

Chastity Experiment Day 2: The first night

I had problems accessing my WordPress so I can only publish yesterday’s entry today.

When my friend convinced/ lured/ pressures me into this experiment the nights were the thing I was most afraid off. While testing the cage I wore it during the day for extended periods of time. When it started to feel a bit uncomfortable I could adjust the device which obviously is not possible when I am sleeping. So would I not be able to sleep because I would wake up every few hours to fiddle with the cage? The fear was reasonable because I am very active while sleeping. Tossing and turning is a sign for a good night’s sleep. How would having a chunky piece of metal hanging between my legs and somewhat pulling on my balls affect that? Surprisingly: Not very much.

Of cause having something attached to your body feels a bit weird and unusual. When I was lying in bed, lights out and slowly dozing off the thought of not being able to jerk off was very present in my mind but not as discomforting as expected. Also due to the moving momentum of the heavy metal there was a pleasant pulling sensation on my balls every time I turned. Luckily I didn’t wake up during the night due to feeling uncomfortable. However, waking up was a bit uncomfortable. On the edge between sleeping and waking I roll around in my bed, resting in various positions, also on my belly. In this position the steel is pushed into the groin which is uncomfortable.

Luckily I rarely get morning wood and haven’t had a boner yet so the cage’s efficiency has yet to be tested.

Chastity Experiment Day 1: Finding the right Ring Size

As written in last week’s review I have given the Bon4 Steel Chastity Cage a thorough testing like every toy I review. But I have worn the device on and off because I had too much other stuff on my mind at the end of the semester. Now I am at my parent’s on vacation and dare to venture into a week of chastity.

After showing this morning I took the pouch with the cage and rings and tried out which ring would fit me best. I started out with the 51mm ring. Being inexperienced it felt the most comfortable. However while just walking a short distance to the post office, I felt like the cage would fall off so I tried the 47mm and 44mm rings. While I am writing this I am wearing the 44mm ring but am not sure if it isn’t too tight for long term. Let’s see how I feel after the first night.

I somehow anticipated that finding the right ring size would be the most difficult task. The ring has to be tight enough to hold the cage in place and make it inescapable yet wide enough to be comfortable to be worn 24/7 and more important to allow enough circulation to the genitals. With 4 rings provided and 2 additional rings available for purchase I guess Bon4 has a size for most dicks out there. But with the rings being made out of metal in a rather simple design it should be easy to have ring made at a local black smith to fit the individual physic of a potential chastity sub.

The Cage locked with a 51mm Ring attached

Chastity is one of the big things in (gay) BDSM. Handing over the control of one’s dick and orgasms to a top is one of the biggest sacrifices a sub can do without interfering too much with his day to day schedule. This is what makes chastity devices so intriguing.

Despite its popularity I haven’t done a chastity device review yet. I owned two: A CB6000 and a cheap steel one. The first was too small for my soft dick, the second had too sharp edges and without a proper and in-depth testing I am not writing reviews. So I was pleasantly surprised when Mister B sent me the new Bon4 Steel Chastity Cage size Regular to review. And I was more pleasantly surprised when I found out that it actually fits my soft dick.

Design

The construction of this chastity device is fairly standard besides its being made out of brushed stainless steel. There is a cage which is connected to a ring behind your balls which keeps it from falling off. The cage is approx. 8,5cm long with a diameter of 3,7cm for the shaft and approx. 5cm for the glans. Between the cage and the ring there are two pegs with 1,2cm length to keep both parts at a comfortable distance and adding up to a total usable length of 9,7cm. The chastity device comes with four rings with the following diameters: 39mm, 44mm, 47mm and 51mm. With this variety the device should fit most dicks. If you have a smaller one you can always take a look at the small version for 149€.

The device has a few unique properties due to the material. The rings have a hinge at the bottom which makes putting it on quite easily. I have also heard a lot of reports from friends who’s dicks broke plastic/ silicone chastity devices over time due to material fatigue. This is defiantly not going to happen with this device. The build quality of the toy I have gotten is superb but if there should be any rough or uncomfortable spaces the toy comes with a little sheet of fine sandpaper and tape to mend these spots. There is also a small lock in black bag the toy comes in.

It is kind of hard to write this section. The chastity cage isn’t really a toy, it is a control device made to be worn 24/7. With the high build quality and the material which will withstand moisture and physical stress the Bon4 Metal Chastity Cage is up to the challenge. But in the end more than even any piece of gear it has to fit perfectly to fulfill its purpose. A too loose ring and you can get out of it easily or it will simply fall off when walking. A too tight ring will make wearing it for a long time uncomfortable or can even cause damage to your genitals due to cut circulation. So even more than with other toys I urge you to try it out if it fits you. If you have problems with the ring sizes Bon4 offers addition ones with 36mm and 56mm diameter. The lock is quite a high quality one but still it is more a psychological barrier for the sub. A skilled lock pick will sooner and a desperate sub will later figure out how to open it with a pair of paperclips. For checkable security I recommend using numbered plastic locks.

One of the greatest problems with chastity cages is hygiene. Most devices only have small holes for pissing and some for water because materials like plastic doesn’t allow for bigger ones without compromising stability. Yet again stainless steel doesn’t have this problem so the case basically consists out of holes with some beams which makes hygiene not problem. You simply shower wearing the cages and you are all set. The material also opens the door for some torture possibilities. Since metal picks up temperature quite easily most subs fund mild ice and fire play… interesting. And I probably don’t need to tell you that steel is conductive. Of cause there is a downside: The metal makes the cage way heavier than the plastic ones. My testees had very different opinions on that topic: Some found it uncomfortable, some loved the constant pull and movement on the balls.

Afterthought

This review covers only the “technical” aspects of the Bon4 Metal chastity cage. Chastity never has quite been my kink, partly because I was frustrated with the cages not fitting my dick. I also didn’t find the thought of handing control of my dick over to a top tempting. For this review I have worn the device on and off for a couple of days and was genuinely impressed how much I liked it. Yet a true long term test has yet to be done. A top friend of mine has challenged me to a week of chastity which will begin this Sunday. You can expect a small blog entry every day about my experiences and problems with the cage. But a week doesn’t say much about true long term usability. I have been looking for a sub to be locked up for quite some time and as soon as I have found one and put into the device for an extended period of time there will be a follow-up review.

HML Electro Ballstretcher

Vendor: HML

Construction

HML E-StretcherThe stretcher is made out of one piece of soft leather. The twist with this simple construction is that the leather is folded so despite the one-piece-construction the edge is nicely piping like rounded. In combination with the soft leather it makes this stretcher extremely comfortable to wear. For added stretch strength there is a seam running around the leather making the construction a bit stiffer.

The Stretcher has a diameter of 3,7cm.

The Stretcher has a diameter of 3,7cm.

The stretcher is 4cm wide and has only one diameter setting of 3,7cm which should fit most balls. Sewed onto the body is a 2cm wide separator which can be adjusted to two length with snap buttons: 8cm length and 2,4cm space between the rim of the stretcher and the separator strap and 9,5cm length with 3,3cm. That makes it a bit larger than the Mr S stretcher I reviewed in February. So if you have big ball, take a look at this stretcher. Like the Mr S stretcher there is a welded steel D-ring mounted onto the separator which is hold in place by two rivets. Sadly the rivets are quite close together so the D-ring won’t be in the middle when you adjust the separator to the larger size. I have already talked to the guys at HML they are making a new version of this stretcher with two diameter settings and more space for the D-ring. If you want this version right now, just write it into the comments when you order this toy.

The pièce de résistance of this toy are the two electrodes for 4mm banana plugs mounted on the separator strap. Because they are separate you don’t need another pole to use them.

Playing with it

I can’t say much more about this ball stretcher than I said about the Mr S stretcher in February: It is very comfortable to wear and has true long term potential. And because the D-ring is welded unlike the Mr S stretcher you can even engage in rougher play with this stretcher than the Mr S one.

As said above what set this stretcher apart are the two poles. They are 4mm sockets mounted between the two parts of a rivet so they have very little mass. Thus even with a low setting on your box you can induce quite a strong and sharp sensation. Turning the power up will soon lead to agony. Most subs than start to wiggle trying to get the stretcher off – which makes anything you attached onto the D-ring extra effective. Because the poles are placed at the middle of the separator strap you can even put silicone loops around the separated balls for really fried eggs.

Mister B Thai Pain Sticks

Thai Pain Sticks

Vendor: Mister B

I have gotten this toy from Mister B in order to review it. It was a nice reminder to review this kind of toy because I love it for its many possibilities to torture someone.

Design

Pair Pain Sticks

The Pain Sticks come in a pair for two nipples, lips, balls,…

The construction of this „clamps“ (due to lack of a better word I will just call this toy a clamp) is quite simple: two approx. 23 cm long varnished black steel sticks are glued parallel inside black rubber balls on both ends. There are also two rubber rings which slide on the steel sticks. It lays in the nature of the length and sturdiness of the sticks that toy can’t be worn tight fitting under gear.

I have seen versions of this toy made with wooden sticks but I highly recommend the steel version because it can be easily sanitizes. It is also noteworthy that Mister B sells them in pairs; sometimes you only get one which might be enough depending on your usage…

Playing with it

… and you can use it on a number of different body areas. The Thai Pain Stick is most commonly used as a nipple toy. You simply pull the two sticks apart and put the nipple between them. This can be a bit tricky because you can only pull the sticks approx. 1 cm apart which might be too little for a soft nipple. I recommend stimulating the nipple until it is a bit firmer by using your hands, sucking on them or using suction cups before trying to put the Thai Pain Sticks on. Another possible problem is that you can only easily put them on the tip of the nipple. The sticks are not too firm but the sensation can be too hard for a newbie. But if you have gotten the endorphins flowing by a little finger foreplay it should be ok.

The Sticks Ends are housed in a rubber ball

Once they are in place I love this toy for it many play possibilities. The first thing you can do is increasing the pressure by pushing the movable rings closer together. Because the sticks are relatively long the pain intensity can be dosed quite fine without having to fear that it will fall off, unlike clamps where you have to i crease the pressure with a screw. Another way to remind the sub of the clamps once he got used to them is turning them. When turning the, there is a risk that the nipple will slip through the sticks which is very painful. But that might be just the thing you were going for…

The biggest advantage of the Thai Pain Sticks is that you can still access the nipple while the clamp is in play. There are infinite possibilities to add stimulation. One thing I love to do is playing with temperature. Either rub an ice cube over the tip of the nipple or just drop wax on that small area. The wax sensation is even stronger when you put the sticks into the freezer for 10 minutes before applying them… If you want to get really nasty, put safe irritants like bee venom salve on the nipple or torment it with a pin wheel. If you pulled the nipple between the sticks a bit further you can even add a second clamp onto them for added agony.

The two rubber rings make the difference between ecstasis and agony

The two rubber rings make the difference between ecstasis and agony

Of cause you are not limited to the nipple when playing. The clamp can be put anywhere where you can pinch enough skin. My favorite other areas are the fore skin, the balls (be careful not to get a seminal duct between the sticks!), ear lobes and the lips and tongue. The pain sensation on these areas is not so intense but you can make a fun game: Put them on both lips and tell the sub that they must not touch and then start playing. If he wiggles too much they will enviably touch and your sub has earned a punishment.

Beyond the clamp properties I have found the pain sticks useful for a bit of impact play. Especially the balls on the end can sting a bit when snapped again the skin. Because they are so small this toy is ideal for applying pain to small areas like the glans or the nipples.

E-Stim Systems Monopole Pinwheel

Vendor: E-Stim Systems

Design

PinWheelOverviewAs the namen already states the toy is a standard pinwheel with added e-stim functionality. For connection to your e-stim box a 4mm banana jack is solidly soldered onto the top. A shrinking hose has been put over the body of the wheel so you can safely grip it.

Being a monopole you need another pole on the subs body. Most of the time I use a conducting silicone loop.

Playing with it

As always when playing with electricity a word of warning: Currency mustn’t run through the heart! It can be fatal!

Detail of the Pin Wheel

Detail of the Pinwheel

I recommend putting the other pole on the end of the limbs (fingers or toes). Do not cross the waist or the shoulders of the arm you attached the other pole to with the pinwheel!

I have bought this toy with my first order of e-stim toys for my ET232 so I had little experience how e-stim works and how the electrode design affects the sensation. I hoped for a toy that with little currency flowing would lightly tickle and with more currency flowing it would become a torture device. I only got the latter. I have tried all programs programs on different boxes (so far Erostek ET232 and ET302R and Rimba Digital 4 Channel Box) and I have found it hard to create a non-painful sensation on body areas with a high nerve count. And even elsewhere most of the time the sensation is sharp stinging pain which can be agonizing with higher currencies.

The 4mm Socket for Banana Plugs

The 4mm Socket for Banana Plugs

At first I was disappointed by the toy but then I realized the toy’s potential. When a sub sees a pinwheel he mostly expects the sharp pins to sting but it is more a tickling and teasing sensation (after all the pinwheel is a medical device made for neurologists). In combination with an e-stim box the monopole pinwheel lives up to its reputation. With a little practice you can create a continuum between giggling and screaming just by turning the currency up a bit and down again.

Mister Chaps Crocodile Clamps

Vendor: Mister Chaps

Design

_DSC1523Some time ago I review the Non-Adjustable Aligator Clamps from Mister B and loved them for their versatility so even new comers can enjoy them. Today I face again a reptile – and this time a mean one!

I got this clamps by accident. I was visiting Hamburg and following (old) my rule that I have to get myself a toy from every city trip I was browsing at Mister Chaps for something new. And this pair of clamps was actually the only one I did not own yet.

The Opening Angle of the Clamps

The Opening Angle of the Clamps

Like the Mister B ones these clamps are very small. But unlike them the massive, boldly looking chain is mounted onto a bail which is located at the opening mechanism axis so it doesn’t jam the mechanism. That design is very handy because sometimes you need to get these little devils off your skin FAST!

Playing with it

These clamps are only made for a selected group of pain connoisseurs which can cope with handling problems. Again this is a small clamp. But unlike other small clamps I have reviewed the gripping area is a really small and steep piece of metal which again has no texture. It takes some practice to grip and open the clamps. Operating it with thicker gloves on is a really hard task and as soon as your finger tips are sweaty or luby it gets really hard to open this clamps.

The Effect of the Teeth digging into the Skin after 5 Minutes

The Effect of the Teeth digging into the Skin after 5 Minutes

The form factor of the clamps (wide and shallow instead of narrow and deep like most clamps) keep it from sticking closely to your body but stand perpendicular away from it. I have tried to wear them under my rubber surf suit but aborted this experiment due to the fear of ripping it so it is a toy best used on subs with naked chest. Or should I say: Pain pigs? The pain sensation is very strong, a sharp biting feeling. And the steep pressure points which makes putting the clamps on problematic are now a benefit because they lead your finger tips towards the end of the clamps where you can easily increase the pressure – if you desire to agonize your victim. Also: These clamps do not come off lightly. I was too afraid to try it out but I believe you will probably break the skin through severe scratches when you pull these clamps off.

The Effects of the Teeth digging into Rubber

The Effects of the Teeth digging into Rubber

You could use it on rubber or leather surfaces because the spring is quite hard but it will leave marks. Also, the main pain sensation is lost and you only feel the pressure.

Despite not opening very wide these clamps through their tough grip can be put on nearly every part of the body imaginable as long as you can pinch enough skin to fit between the teeth. I once brain-stormed possible areas of use with a fellow top after the second gin and tonic and I will not write them down in order to protect sensitive readers. But believe me: The ideas made even an experienced pain pig like me shiver in fear.
