College Student Asking About Chastity Cages and Mechanics

I’m a college student at 19. I have this bad habit of fiddling with my groin, especially the scrotum, throughout the day and particularly in lectures. Masturbation is another part of it (luckily I can keep that to myself). My partner and some friends have noticed, so I think it’s time to redirect those urges. I came across these chastity cage devices and want to know how they operate. Do they actually stop masturbation? What’s the mechanism? Will I hold onto my own key? I don’t really do BDSM; I just want to understand the setup.

Unless you invest in a robust full belt or get incredibly lucky, a standard ball trap won't completely stop masturbation if your will is strong enough; it just makes the act less convenient and/or awkward. If you want an object that prompts hesitation before you touch yourself, this setup works. Here are quick answers to your other queries: A base ring encircles both the testicles and penis entirely. The penis then enters a tube. A pin connects the base ring to a tab on the penile tube, with a padlock securing the end of that pin. Hand over all keys to your significant other, who becomes your Key Holder. However, it won't stop you from constantly touching your crotch; you'll need to train yourself to leave it alone.

It might not help, or it could even make things worse. Or perhaps the opposite is true and it does help. It's hard to predict for sure. Buy one and give it a shot.

If you want to have something that will make you think twice before you masturbate, it will work. Okay, so my understanding is that even if I do manage to masturbate, I won't get an erection. Isn't that how they function? > member_75c78a1ec7 wrote: > A quick answer to your other questions. A base ring goes completely around your testicles and penis. Then your penis goes into a tube.

So I can't masturbate without my girlfriend's permission? How does that dynamic work exactly? > member_75c78a1ec7 wrote: > It will not stop you from grabbing your crotch all the time, that's something you will have to teach yourself to stop.

To masturbate, you'd need to pull your penis out of the tube, which can sometimes be very difficult or even impossible, though other times it's quite easy. While your penis is outside the tube, the entire device remains hanging from your testicles. This can be fairly inconvenient or painful depending on how forceful you are. Once done, you have to slide your penis back into the tube, which is often the trickier part. > > member_75c78a1ec7 wrote: > > A quick answer to your other questions.

So, briefly put: I can't masturbate without pulling my penis out of the tube, and I can't pull it free unless my girlfriend (or whoever holds the key) hands over the key?

In short. Yes.
