More than a sex toy

There are plenty of different ways to use a cock ring. Some people enjoy using them as part of bondage or orgasm control; a tight ring applied before the cock is erect can provide some fascinating sensations once it's hard, though it's important to be careful not to use one that's too tight. Others use them more as a method of introducing something else for their partner - you can get pleasure rings that come with attachments designed to penetrate a partner's anus or stimulate their clitoris. Most, though, are simply about heightening the wearer's pleasure; they come in varying widths and thicknesses, and many of them vibrate. Penis rings can also help many people to attain and maintain an erection if that's something they can have some trouble with.

What is a cock ring?  

A cock ring is a small ring-shaped device made of plastic or silicone and used to maintain erections, make them harder and to improve sexual intercourse.

How do cock rings work?

Made to tighten around the bottom of the shaft of the penis, and sometimes the balls too, this type of ring constricts to keep blood from flowing out of the penis easily. This means it stays harder and engorged for longer. This can make the man last longer before orgasm and improve his sensitivity and the intensity of his orgasm.

How do you use a cock ring safely?

Firstly, if you have any cardiovascular issues or take blood thinning medication talk to a medical professional before using a cock ring for the first time to make sure it is safe for you to use one. Be sure to have emergency shears on hand to remove the ring if an emergency occurs. Remove it as quickly as possible if there is any discomfort or the penis turns white or blue. A cock ring should never be used for more than 30 mins and you should always take one off before going to sleep. If you can’t get the ring off, get to hospital immediately.

Does using a cock ring improve sex?

Wearing one of these rings around the penis can delay orgasm for the man wearing it. This means sex can last longer. It also improves the intensity of orgasm for the wearer. You can get cock rings that vibrate, feeling good for the wearer and their partner, especially if the cock ring has a ridge to press against a women’s clit. They are definitely worth trying out because even in solo play they can lead to stronger orgasms and longer play sessions.

    The natural extension of - and often a companion to - the dildo is the vibrator. Vibrators have been around since the Victorian era when they were used by doctors to cure what was known as "hysteria". These days, thankfully, their primary purpose tends to be far less of a sexist cliche. There are many types; for example the remote control vibrator and the famous rabbit vibrator, and can be a boon to all kinds of sex and self-pleasure no matter who you are. Do some experimentation to figure out what kind works best for you - there are a wealth of options out there. Shopping in person is often best, as sales advisors can help you make your pick!
    If you've never used a vibrator, you should try one out - no matter what your gender identity or genital configuration. They can open up whole new worlds of pleasure and experimentation, and many people find them a fantastic way to get to know themselves sexually a little bit better. They're far from the only sex toy out there in sex shops, though. If you're interested in cock rings, sex dolls, dildos, butt plugs, Fleshlights, nipple clamps or any other stimulating object, Fetish.com is a great place to start - our forums are full of advice for first-time experimenters, and our magazine section has plenty of interesting and illuminating reviews.
    There are plenty of ways to describe the act of sex, but 'fucking' is our favourite. There's just something hot, erotic and sexy about it; it conjures images of late nights and moody lights and basking in a deliciously decadent afterglow. We're fans of getting to the point without beating around the bush, and 'fuck' encapsulates that perfectly. There's a common myth that the word Fuck originated as an acronym, and stands for 'Fornication Under Consent of the King'. This is almost certainly bullshit. As Melissa Mohr says in her excellent book Holy Shit: A Brief History of Swearing, the word 'fuck' is of Germanic origin, related to Dutch, German and Swedish words for 'to strike' and 'to move back and forth'. There's certainly something Germanic about the inherently direct and straightforward nature of the word, but the act of fucking is absolutely universal.
