Ring Gag | Kinks & Fetishes

Gagging for a ring gag?

Ring gags are unique in that, while they still remove the wearer's ability to use their mouth as they usually would, they leave a few other options wide open. The ring-shaped opening means that a submissive wearing one of these gags can still be put to good use for giving oral sex or playing watersports-related games--all the while being unable to speak, make much noise or regain control over their mouth. Like other gags, they come in a variety of materials including rubber, metal and plastic--and they're available at many different price points. Just take care not to cause choking, and always arrange a nonverbal safeword before the gag goes on. Cover photo: wyldenkinky.

What is a ring gag?

A ring gag is a specific gag that has a round hole in the middle. The ring is metallic and can be covered in softer materials. They come in different sizes and fasten with adjustable straps.

What does a ring gag look like?

The defining feature of this type of gag is the round ring that is designed to sit in the submissive’s mouth. The ring is often metallic but can be covered in material to make it softer for the wearer. Either side of the ring will be an adjustable strap that fastens behind the person’s head. Once in place, it keeps the mouth open.

How to use a ring gag safely?

Before using the gag establish a non-verbal safeword so that the person wearing the gag can communicate if they’re in distress and need to be released. When inserting anything into the gag, and therefore the submissive’s mouth, be aware of what you are doing. Don’t block the airways, or the sub could pass out and be careful that no small pieces could get lodged in their throat.

Why use a ring gag?

Unlike other gags, the ring gag leaves the sub’s mouth open for all kinds of different play such as blow jobs and watersports for example. Just like other gags, the presence in the sub’s mouth will make them drool excessively. This, combined with forcing their mouth open (consensually of course) can then be used for humiliation play too.

For kinksters into watersports

The term 'watersports' covers all sexual pursuits involving urine, and it's pretty common amongst kinksters. If you're new to this fetish and you'd like to try it out, the best way for beginners is to hop in the bath or shower with your partner before you play: it keeps things contained and makes it much easier to clean up afterwards! In contrast to scat, watersports don't usually come with heavy hygiene warnings; piss is a lot cleaner than people give it credit for. Make sure your golden shower is a fresh one, though, when pee starts to go stale it can also start causing you harm.

For kinky people into bondage mouthguard gags

Bondage mouthguard gags are essentially mouthguards such as the ones worn for sports or to prevent people grinding their teeth in their sleep, only attached to gags that lock around the head. They're generally used by masochists and other submissives who are into pain, because they give something to bite down on--which can be useful and welcomed during many pain play scenes! They're also comparatively difficult to push out of the mouth, particularly when compared to the more common ball gag model. They're generally made from rubber with leather straps, though other types are available. If you're prone to getting a beating, it's well worth looking out for one of these!

For kinky people into bondage and discipline

Many BDSM relationships have a power exchange dynamic and one very classic way to show this is through the use of a collar and leash. It can be used as part of pet play with human puppies and kittens but the use of collars and leashes isn’t exclusive to this kind of play. Many submissives enjoy being lead round on a leash when they are at BDSM clubs, dungeons or even while enjoying a scene at home. It symbolises the control the dominant has over the submissive, by letting them physically dictate how their submissive moves and keeping them close to their Dom at all times.
