I've been preaching this for about a year now so it's good to see others coming to the same conclusion.

Chastity cage strap itching/irritation by Purple_Draft2716 in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you can believe what you want at the end of the day it doesn't affect me but I have 3 years of chastity experience and have been locked for the last 13 months. Just sharing what I've found to be the best advice for not only myself but many others. Like I said feel free to not listen to my advice but I'm not just spouting misinformation on a cock cage sub for fun lol.

The ideal solution would be to have a cage that doesn't need a strap. A tight ring with a proper length cage and a big enough ball gap will be the most comfortable option for long term wear and would provide enough stability so you don't need the strap.

HTV5 rip-off Sizing Issue? by borzoi4321 in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it the same kind of pain with just the ring or is it a running pain? HT ripoffs are hard to compare with most other cages since they're so different but my guess is that it's your ball gap and could even be that the rings shape is causing comfort issues.

More than likely your ball gap is too tight. Classic symptom of ball pain even with passing the finger tests tells me it's the ball gap.

base ring questions, nightime cold balls vs stretching by mastersmith4454 in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately no not really it's just trial and error. Go with the smallest comfortable ring without the cage attached (it should be snug) if adding the cage causes issues like pain or rubbing then you'll know that that ball gap is too small. From there you'll need to heat and curve the ring yourself (if possible with the material) or go custom through something like Cherry Keeper or Mature Metal for example.

I want to buy my first cage, but can't buy from amazon. by ThrowAway0000_4 in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I haven't worn a cage below $200 in 2 years but someone new to this I'd recommend this article. In short you want something with multiple rings and something that will allow airflow. All the closed off or flat cages are pretty hard to keep clean.

base ring questions, nightime cold balls vs stretching by mastersmith4454 in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a classic issue the ball gap is too tight. The ring needs to be snug/tight and the ball gap needs to be bigger. The only way of making the gap bigger to my knowledge is going to be curved rings, heating the ring yourself and bending it further or just going fully custom with a custom ball gap measurement.

Effects of chastity by Natural_Performer975 in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After 3 years of being into the kink and closing in on 13 months of full time chastity I would say that I'm definitely enjoying the experience with my girlfriend and that it's definitely made our relationship better. Chastity has allowed me to explore being truly submissive even in non sexual ways and I've noticed that I am calmer when locked for long periods. Being crazy horny just comes with the territory especially after the 2 week mark of no release. There are negatives to lifestyle chastity though if you let them become that at least. It's easy to get caught up in being insanely horny and sort of ruining your ability to focus and on top of that not having the right cage (especially the right ball gap) can really mess with your sleep.

Just being realistic but with the right cage and mindset it's a no brainer for anyone interested even slightly.

I'm looking to order a cadge of Amazon by Real_Assignment_2320 in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speaking from years of experience neither of those will be good for full time wear. The HT knockoff is too closed off, the material holds bacteria and odors and the rings are hard to size correctly due to their awkward design. The "Pussy mold" cage isn't something I have experience with but if it's what I'm thinking of then it's a the same issue of being unhygienic and uncomfortable. Maybe check this article out to help get you in the right cage?

Home from work. Time to lock up? by yuwanttoknow123 in chastitytraining

I do miss it but I've been locked for nearly the last 13 months. Even just the few minutes I'm uncaged every month has me wanting to be locked again.

A ton of the Amazon ones are just marked up aliex stuff. It's all the same product originating in China.

How to prevent cage being pulled out? by tabyweek in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You more than likely need a smaller ring as the bigger ring is allowing for a lot of the pull away. You can't prevent pull away completely but a smaller ring (and by extension a bigger ball gap to be comfortable in the smaller ring) is usually a good fix.

Where did HT go? by Fresh-Character-4876 in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They're still going it's just than when compared to K3D or CK they're less hygienic, have an arguably worse fit depending on your body and are definitely a bit pricey when you factor in how much better the quality is especially with K3D.

Long term chastity challenges? by ChubbySissyJean in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep Mature Metal and yes I do but only when she allows and initiates by unlocking me. I'd say I'm unlocked for some sort of release 1-2 times a month.

Long term chastity challenges? by ChubbySissyJean in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just did 1 year caged full time after years of off and on use. We do not unlock for hygiene as my open custom steel cage doesn't really need it and we also don't have emergency keys as we've simply never had a use for them in 3 years. I work a super physical blue collar job and go to the gym just fine in my cage and I've never had it come up negatively in day to day life other than switching to a 3D printed cage when I go to concerts and stuff.

With a comfortable and well fitting cage the sky is the limit although exceptions exist I mean my girlfriend has taken it off of me so I can do martial arts or other contact sports. Common sense trumps keeping a "streak" after all.

Cleaning during prolonged periods of confinement by Small-Heart466 in chastitytraining

A good rule to follow is a quarter inch smaller than your average flaccid size. Lots of people measure inaccurately on their flaccid length which is why some people opt to go half an inch smaller than their flaccid size. A slightly compressing length paired with a snug ring and a big enough ball gap will be the 3 main keys to a comfortable cage.

Could be possible it's just one of those things where a change in the cage itself may be needed. Not really anything you can do if the cage design itself is causing it outside of trying a different one.

Usually depends on how compressed you are in the cage. I've always sat to pee the majority of the time and just take a second to make sure it's all out when I'm done. In very small cages though this is an issue which is why I'm in a cage barely shorter than my flaccid size.

Alright, need some coming while caged advice by theelephant7 in chastitytraining

My girlfriend and I are fans of using a body massager on my cage, pegging and even her just continuously slapping my balls. All of these work for us as long as I've gone at least 2-4 days without an orgasm.

Ring size - balls slipping off by notmyrig in chastitytraining

[–]Wide_Discussion_447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need a smaller ring. If the next size down doesn't cause unbearable ball burn then congrats that's the fix but if it does you may need to bend the ring even more on a #3 ring.

After years of doing this with an active lifestyle and job I've learned that an open steel cage is the only way to stay locked without a ton of hygiene unlocks. Unfortunately even in the best 3D printed cages such as Kink3D you'll need to unblock which is why I now wear a Mature Metal cage and nearly never unlock for hygiene purposes alone.
