Cock Rings

What Is a Cock Ring?

So, if you don’t know what cock rings are, my first question is, which rock have you been living under for the last few years?

Cock rings are nothing new, in fact they have been around since the Jin Dynasty (266-420 AD). Thankfully we have moved on from them being made of goats eyelids but they worked in exactly the same way as today’s modern, and more luxurious rings.

These super simple, super sexy adult toys are an absolute must have. Worn around the base of the penis, cock rings may also be called a penis ring, a c ring, a tension ring or even, a constriction band. But what does a cock ring do? Well, they work by constricting blood flow to help you have a firmer, longer lasting erection. They can help to delay ejaculation for improved sexual performance.

How Do Cock Rings Work?

The science behind it is simple. A penis stands to attention when chemical messages from the brain cause the arteries in the penis to relax. Relaxation of these arteries lets blood flow in. A cock ring applies pressure, trapping the blood in the penis. When the penis is full of blood, hey presto, it becomes firmer and the erection should last longer.

Why Do People Use Cock Rings?

The number 1 reason to use a cock ring has to be because they just make sex and masturbation even more fun!

But there are lots of other reasons why all sorts of sexually happy people, and couples, are using penis rings.

These are just a few;

• To maintain an erection and delay ejaculation for longer lasting sex
• For a firmer, more satisfying erection (because who wouldn’t want that!)
• Increased sensation and heightened excitement
• A confidence boost in the bedroom
• Building sexual stamina and performance
• Penis rings can be a great benefit for lovers with erectile dysfunction

How Do I Wear a Cock Ring?

Before you put on a cock ring you are going to need an erection or at least a partial erection, so get yourself turned on! Turn off your phone, set the mood with candles, fairy lights, clean sheets or a new silk throw. Put on your favourite playlist and relax. Fantasize about your secret desires or maybe watch some ethical porn or listen to an erotic audio book.

Once you are ready for action slide the ring over the head of your penis and roll it down to the base. When you are more confident you may want to experiment with stretching the ring over and around the testicles for different sensations. Or you could try wearing more than one ring at a time for further excitement.

Using a little lube on the ring, and yourself, will help it to slide on without fuss.

If you’re wearing a cock and ball ring, you are going to need to put the testicles through first, one at a time. Then bring your penis up through the centre of the ring and slide it into position.

If you are using protection (and let’s remember safe sex is the best sex) then you need to put the cock ring on before your condom.

More safety – Never sleep with a cock ring on and it is recommended that they aren’t worn for longer than 30 minutes at a time.

How to Use a Cock Ring?

Wearing a cock ring for solo play and masturbation is a revelation. Using the same technique to get off, over and over again, may result in you struggling to orgasm any other way. So mixing things up will really help with your performance and overall sexual enjoyment.

If you are using a cock ring for couples play then don’t just wear it for sexual intercourse. Whilst this is great, cock rings for couples can do so much more! Here are a few things you might like to try:

Wrap a vibrating cock ring or a textured cock ring around your tongue to give a blow job like no other. Add to the excitement by not telling your lover what you are planning to do! Let your buzzing tongue do all the talking. Pairing this experience with a blindfold will enhance the moment further.

These versatile rings will enhance any sexual activity – vaginal, anal, foreplay and even oral sex will all step up a gear with the addition of a cock ring.

Did you know you don’t even need a cock to use a cock ring?

Yes you heard right… If you have a vibrating cock ring then try placing the ring over your favourite dildo for an instant vibrating dildo. Use it as a vibrator for precise clitoral stimulation or explore erogenous zones just as you would with a bullet vibrator. Penis rings are not one dimensional and they are an absolute must have for any sex toy collection.

Different Types of Cock Rings

Here’s a run down of the bestselling cock rings:

Stretchy Cock Rings

These are the simplest form of the penis ring but don’t be deceived. They might look small and unassuming but they pack one hell of a punch in the pleasure department. And because one size fits most, there is no fumbling around or instruction manual. You can just get on with having fun!

Vibrating Cock Rings

As you might have already guessed, a vibrating cock ring vibrates! They can also be called a Penis Ring Vibrator, but whatever you call them, you get all the benefits of a cock ring, plus the added thrill of vibrations. Vibrating cock rings are a popular sex toy for couples as the can provide added firmness and girth whilst delivering powerful vibrations during penetration. They can also be wrapped around fingers and used to tantalise and tease sweet spots just like a vibrator.

Some couples rings are designed with clitoral stimulation pads for direct and precise dual stimulation of the clit. These is a great help if your partner cannot climax through penetration alone.

Rabbit Cock Rings

Usually stretchy and always vibrating, rabbit cock rings are a best-selling couples toy. Quivering bunny ears provide direct clit action whilst strong vibrations pulse through the ring, providing intense shared pleasure.

Why not try turning the ring upside down on your penis. This way the bunny ears can tickle your testicles or even your perineum. Every new sensation you can squeeze into sex or masturbation is only going to enhance your pleasure.

Adjustable Cock Rings

If you’re not sure what size you are, or you’re worried that one size won’t fit you, go for an adjustable ring. They all work in a similar way. To use; place the lasso / loop, over your shaft. Then pinch the toggle between your finger and thumb and pull it in the corresponding direction to tighten or loosen it. This enables you to choose a snugness that suits you.

Position the ring either in front or behind the testicles to experiment with alternative sensations.

Double Cock Rings

Double cock rings can also be known as twin ring cock rings or a cock and ball ring. They consist of two joined rings. One is worn around the testicles whilst the other sits at the base of the penis. Having two rings puts pressure on the perineum providing additional stimulation.

Then there are the double penetration cock rings. Securely fixed in place by the cock ring, these double penetration toys enable hands-free play. Satisfying two holes simultaneously. Double penetrators will satisfy the heartiest of sexual appetites plus they are the perfect partner for playing out a threesome.

Cock Ring Sets

These are a great choice if you are looking to experiment with wearing one or more rings at the same time. They are also fab if you are looking to add different textures and sensations during sexual intercourse, foreplay and solo play.

Many cock rings sets provide a range of varying textured rings helping to keep your sex fresh and exciting. 

The choice is vast, the options for adventures are endless, but one thing is for sure… you are going to get a lot of passion for your pennies with a cock ring.

And anyone still thinking sex toys are for sad, single people or those not good enough to satisfy their partners in bed, are seriously deluded. Cock rings along with all other adult toys, are our friends. They take pressure off performance, boost confidence and help to ensure everyone gets their happy ending!

Cock Rings and Erectile Dysfunction

Did you know a cock ring can even help if you suffer with ED. There are a whole heap of reasons why ED occurs. Sometimes it can just be a one off thing maybe related to stress or a short illness. But sometimes it can be longer term. ED can prevent you from having a full sex life. But it doesn’t have to.

Everyone deserves a fulfilling sex life and a cock ring can be just the aid you need. Working to slow the blood flow back from the erect penis, it can help you to stay hard. Cock rings work best if you’re able to get a partial or full erection. If you find this difficult, using a penis pump can sometimes get you hard enough to use a cock ring effectively.

Every now and again we can all have an occasion when our penis gets a touch of stage fright. And before you know it…. poof …. enter Mr Limpy. Popping on a cock ring before the main event can give a much needed confidence boost so you can go on with the show and put in the performance of a lifetime.
