What is a Cock Ring?

They are also called tension rings, penis rings, C rings, shaft rings, or erection rings. They are usually worn at the base of the penis. And its tightness help reduces the blood flow to the penis; this makes the erection stronger and lasts longer. Some people also use it to adorn their penis, as assort of adornment. Also, men with erectile dysfunction use this ring to strengthen and lengthen their erection. However, do not forget that it is a sex toy and not just a medical or beautiful piece for adornment. The vibrating cock ring can help to caress the balls of the penis, which adds to the stimulation that comes from sexual play apart from penetrative sex. It also makes the penis tip and shaft very sensitive to touch, which takes the game of caress to another level.

The woman can also benefit from using a vibrating cock ring with their partner. First, it makes penetrative sex better, harder, and longer. More so, a vibrating dick ring stimulates the clitoris during penetrative sex. This causes the woman to orgasm even more than usual during penetrative sexual play. Some variations of cock rings are worn around the scrotum to hold the testicles in place. These types are the ball stretchers or testicle cuffs.

Types and main characteristics

There are many types of cock rings for beginners, experienced users, couples, and solo users. They are all made from different materials and have varying structures that make them differ from each other. Below is a list of the many types available in the market. Each adds spice to sexual pleasure in its unique ways.

Basic Cock Rings

These are the basic and most ordinary forms. They have no unique shape nor feature so that they are the best ones for beginners. They are very simple and easy to grip onto the penis. Basic dick rings are made from metal, rubber, leather, steel, glass, or hard plastics. Some are adjustable like the one made from leather, while others are very inflexible and can only be worn while the penis is soft. For example, metal cock rings are not flexible while the rubber variations are.

Flexible Penis Rings

A little similar to the basic/standard ones, flexible types can be worn even while the penis is hard and erect. They can also come in other features than the simple basic round ring shape. Some flexible cock rings are more than one, with many colors. They are also made from jelly-like materials like soft silicone or soft rubber.

Lassos or Adjustable Cock Ring

This is considered the best cock ring for beginners because it is easy to use, basic and adjustable. If you don’t know your penis size, you can try out this type. It can be worn and removed at any time (whether or not the penis is erect). They are made with flexible or cloth-like materials like soft leather, rubber, and silicone.

Cock and Ball Rings

This is another variation for sexual pleasure. It is a two-in-one type that helps to stimulate the penis and the ball (as its name implies). It is quite harder, and complicated to put on. The balls have to be put into separate holes one after the other, while the penis enters the larger hole in the center. There isn’t a ‘one-way’ to wearing the two-in-one dick ring, but many have preferred putting the balls in first before the penis. They are made of stretchy materials and look like the numerical figure ‘8’.

Vibrating Penis Rings

They are just like basic testicle rings, except that they vibrate. There is usually a vibrator attached to the ring which can come with a rechargeable battery or a standard (replaceable) one. The vibrator stimulates both the penis and the woman’s clitoris. Most of them are not waterproof so, they should not be used in the shower. They come in either plastic, silicone, or other durable materials.

Cock Rings with Butt Plug

These are for couples who love to add an extra kink to spice up their sex life. If you are wondering what it is, it is a butt plug and a penis ring attached as one sex toy. They can either be vibrating or non-vibrating. It also allows for anal and prostate stimulation during penetrative sex.

Perineum Stimulators

They come with a perineum stimulator to stimulate the area of skin between the anus and the scrotum of a man. The result of this action is to stimulate the prostate which is like the G-spot of a woman. Though the stimulation is not direct, it is still a very good feeling.

Clitoral Stimulator Cock Ring Sex Toy

Though the vibrating cock ring stimulates the clitoris, sometimes, it doesn’t reach the spot quite as well. The clitoral stimulator is meant for this purpose. Some types come with fingers or tongues that intensify the sexual intensity by a hundred.

Ball Rings and Crushers

Ball rings are solely for the stimulation of the balls. They are usually much smaller than the regular rings. They are usually made of TPE plastic, metal, or silicone. Ball crushers on the other hand should only be used by experienced users. They squash the balls (as the name implies) and are used in BDSM scenarios.

Double Penetration Penis Ring

This is a type that has a dildo attached to it. It is also called the one with a dildo. This way, your woman can experience the pleasure of double penetration. The double penetration type of cock ring comes in many sizes. That’s why it is advisable to consider your partner’s anal size before purchasing a double penetration ring. The dildo can be vibrating or non-vibrating. The dildo can also be placed above or below the penis, but it is still worn the same way the basic ring is worn.

How to Choose the Best Cock Ring for You?

Choosing the best one for you will become easier by using these tips to guide your buying.

First, consider the reason you want to add this kinky sex toy to your adult toy collection. The ‘why’ behind your purchase can help streamline your decision as to what ring variation is best for you. Also, decide if you want to use it solo or with a couple. Two-male couples would prefer the butt plug combo than the vibrating erection bracelets. While solo users would love the latter as well as the vibrating cock and ball rings. Fit and comfortability is the final thing to consider. Though there are ways to measure your size, if you don’t know your size, you can begin with the lasso or adjustable cock ring. Also, for comfortability, some people might prefer a softer material like rubber to glass or steel. If you are a beginner, it is better to start small, then work your way up.

Features of using

Using this adult sex toy is as simple as ABC. However, it depends on the type of penis ring you are using. Some require you to put in one while the penis is flaccid while some might require you to put in the balls first. Whichever way, here are the major steps to follow when using the rings for the penis:

• Clean your penis ring properly with a cleaner that is suitable for the material of the ring.
• Apply your favorite lubricant to the toy (or device) and your penis.
• Gently slide the ring down your penis.
• Stop immediately you feel uncomfortable or if the ring is too tight.
• If you’re wearing it right, your ring should be dangling while your penis is flaccid and tight when your penis is hard).
• Finally, remember to begin with the simple ones like an adjustable cock ring. Because using a small one, or using the ring that is too tight for you can cause the blood flow to be completely restricted. And that can lead to worse things than an ED.

Benefits of Cock Ring

The advantages of the cock ring sex toy include its ability to intensify orgasm, achieve a stronger and long-lasting erection, and delay orgasm which results in a deeper orgasm. It also aids erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. In addition to this, it makes the penis, and balls more sensitive to touch which increases stimulation. To sum it all, penetrative sex is better with it.

Cons

Despite its many advantages, there are a few limitations. First, it is mostly for male stimulation, and it was designed especially for the penis; therefore, it can’t be used by females alone. It is also small in size, which makes it easy to misplace. And if the wrong size is purchased, it could lead to serious health complications with the male genitals.

Summary

If you are thinking of adding another sex toy to add to your collection, then you should probably consider the ring for your penis. It has a lot of benefits (both sexual and health benefits) and you can explore the different types. With the different types, materials and features, you are set for a new sexual adventure. You can also create fantasies with your partner. So why the wait? Hurry and get yours now. But remember to start from the basics then slowly advance to the big boys.
