What Is a Chastity Cage?

What is the appeal of a chastity cage?

There are many reasons cock cages can be so enticing, and it comes down to the person or couple exploring the niche. For a variety of men, the appeal of a chastity cage comes down to control or the lack thereof.

A Men’s Health article explains the pressure put on men daily, the control they have to take, and the gender norms that are forced on men in society. Chastity cages and chastity play allows for a release of control over one aspect of your life and puts it entirely in the hands of a trusted keyholder. Chastity cages have played a considerable role in the femdom community but are also part of many traditional relationships, especially couples who want to explore new aspects of their sexuality.

Changing the “normal” power dynamic in a relationship can make things extra interesting while adding a sense of trust and comfort. Men also learn to become completely absorbed in their wife’s needs, adding more pleasure inside and outside of the bedroom. In long-distance relationships, cock cages can add an element of excitement and teasing that adds to more intense encounters.  

Whatever your appeal to the niche is, it is a great way to sexually free yourself. For men, the idea of having someone control their sexual pleasure can be an exhilarating experience. Your keyholder holds the power of orgasm and sexual satisfaction. To obtain access, you must behave. How absolutely exciting does that sound?

Different types of chastity cages.

With the popularity of cock cages, the market has increased significantly, and there are a variety of websites that have chastity cages of all kinds. Figuring out which device best fits your desires can be a fun experience in and of itself.

Ball trap chastity cages

One of the more commonly used chastity cages is the ball trap. The device is comparable to handcuffs in a sense; it uses the anatomy to help ensure that it stays locked on. This device uses a ring that goes down the shaft and around the scrotum. Once locked in place, your testicles are in between the ring and the cage itself, preventing no way for the cage to be taken off without unlocking the device.  

Fully enclosed chastity cage

Fully enclosed chastity cages are meant to completely encompass your cock, with only a tiny hole for urination. These cages tend to be enticing for women who want to keep their men from having zero access to their penis at all. Leaving no room for disobedience or pleasure.

Open-ended chastity cages

These cages are open on the end and are particularly useful for long-term use because of their access to cleaning and urination. Although an open-ended chastity cage does prevent an erection from occurring, it also allows for stimulation by giving access to the head of the penis.   

Bar chastity cages

Bar chastity cages are more like cages, with numerous bars intertwining and storing your cock. These cages also allow easier cleaning and can be worn in the shower. Bar chastity cages also allow air to get to your penis, making for a less sweaty environment. They prevent erection, but like open-ended cages, they allow for the possibility of slight stimulation depending on how open the bars are.

Electric shock chastity cages

An electric shock cage is a more intense version of all the cages mentioned. The device is fitted with wires that for electric shock waves to give the penis an electric shock. Each device differs slightly, but most give the choice of which part of the penis will be shocked and have different settings and intensities.

All are controlled at the discretion of the keyholder. With these particular devices, extreme caution needs to be used. Anyone with an existing heart condition should stay clear of this device.

App-controlled chastity cages

App-controlled chastity cages like the Cellmate are particularly helpful when the keyholder is not with the cock cage wearer. The device is connected to an app that the keyholder controls. This allows for the ability to lock and unlock at the keyholder’s discretion from anywhere.  

For keyholders with many cages to control, this app allows them to add as many cages to their account as they want. Cellmate is excellent for keyholders and their needs with a single-player unlocking mode and location status available.  

Prince Albert and frenum piercing chastity cages

These specialized devices use the piercing to attach the chastity cage to the penis and prevent any ability to take the cage off. These cock cages eliminate a ring making it especially helpful for men with a larger scrotum.

Prince Albert and frenum cock cages are arguably a better choice because they use the male anatomy and the piercings to keep the cage on, leading to less temptation to remove the cage or cheat.

Spiked chastity cages

A spiked chastity cage is a cage that is lined with spikes to cause pain if the wearer gets an erection. These are sometimes used in the more intense BDSM situations with cock and ball torcher. Spiked chastity devices add immediate punishment to the equation making a more sexually intense experience. These devices are not recommended for long-term use.

Bowl style chastity cage

These cages are bulkier than average, but they fully encompass the cock and balls. With air vents on the side to help with airflow and hygiene, the bowl-style cock cage allows no access to the area at all. They are comfortable for long-term use, but it is recommended that you clean them at least once a day.

 Chastity belt

The chastity belt can be an enticing and fun belt to wear. Chastity belts are just that, belts; they connect and use your hips to keep the cock cage on. You can also have attachments to these belts, such as butt plugs. They come in many different belt shapes and are usually high-quality leather.

Custom chastity cages

A custom cock cage is made specifically with your cock’s exact measurements for ultimate comfort. Different websites allow for different customizations, things like material, color, cock ring size and shape (circular or oval), and the lock mechanism.

 What are chastity cages made of?

Male chastity cages can be made of all different kinds of material, and it is one of the more critical things to consider when buying a chastity cage for yourself. The suitable material can lead to a better fit and a more comfortable experience.

Metal and Steel

Metal and steel chastity cages are a great choice when choosing your device. The material is strong and durable, and extremely effective in restricting your penis. It is arguably the best material to use when it comes to chastity cages.

Plastic

Chastity cages made of plastic are used mainly because of their lightweight and ability for long-term use. Although it is less durable than metal, it still is very effective and strong for cock cages.

Silicone and rubber

Silicone and rubber chastity cages are also extremely comfortable for long-term wear because the material almost feels like a second skin. Another benefit of silicone and rubber is the ability to wear it almost anywhere without any detection. Traveling leads to a lot of metal detectors and silicon cock cages provide peace of mind in not setting them off.

Resin

A more organic material, resin is a good option for men who have allergies. It is a very breathable material and has little to no toxins. Chastity cages made with resin can be a more comfortable option. It is also a very strong material, so the possibility of damaging or ripping your cock cage is minimal.

Surgical Nylon

Cock cages that are customized and 3D printers usually use surgical nylon (a form of plastic) for their material. It’s used because it is incredibly lightweight and allows for extensive activity while remaining durable.

Chastity cage sizes

Chastity cages come in all shapes, sizes, and materials. One of the most important steps to take when you first go to purchase one is making sure you have the correct measurements this is essential to comfort. Custom chastity cages are an excellent option because they take your exact measurements and make one specifically for you.

One of the common mistakes made by men when they first start diving into the niche is they buy a chastity cage that is too big. This, of course, can lead to access that the keyholder may not want you to have. Some men though do indeed buy cages that are a little bigger to begin with and then gradually get smaller as they get more comfortable with wearing a cock cage. In fact, going from a larger to a smaller cage is often part of chastity training.

Make sure you have the perfect measurements, buy a material you feel comfortable with, make sure your hygiene is impeccable and lay out all your ideas so you can enjoy a wonderful chastity cage experience.
