POLL: Ring-a-ding-ding

Well, wearing a Ring will harden your erection - and prolong the erectile performance by slightly reducing the feeling in your privates.
At least that is what it did for me an some occasions.

Physiologically it does that by reducing the efferent bloodflow through the superficial veins, without cutting off the instream through the deep artries.

But like the feeling, when you cut off the bloodstream in one of your fingers with a rubber band, I found it quite uncofortable after, say fifteen minutes, max.

So whyever she proposed it....
-maybe she just likes gadgets in bed,
-or she felt your erection should be harder(do you remenber if you have been fully engorged?),
-or both your genitalia are not so well matched in size and she hopes to compensate for that by using a ring,
-or it all went far to fast for her and she has made the experience that men last longer with a ring....

I dont know and it does not have to say, that she did not enjoy your dalliance. But in my personal opinion - I dont like the rings.

If you are too fast, learn self-control. Slowing condoms or ointments are avaliable on the market.

If your too slow or kinda flabby, dont drink on those occasions, it reduces erectile functions. Or ask yourself why that is so.
Stress can be a cause, or you simply are not that into her. Or you are adipose or there is a medical problem....

And finally -If you dont see a problem - ask her if she does.
Maybe she really just likes playthings.

I got the impression the original poster was referring to a "Prince Albert" piercing...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Whether or not you get a sharpened piece of steel jammed through your tool is entirely up to you. If she's suggesting it, she should be willing to cough up the cash.

Of course, it's still up to you. But I wouldn't go with some fad that has potentially serious repercussions (infection, tissue damage, nerve damage) because some chick thinks it's a neat idea.

If she want to jab sharpened steel through parts of her own anatomy, that's her business.

My response would be, "How about I not?"

Look at it this way: Would you have her name tattooed on your arm? If not, then extraneous holes in the body should be out of the question.

Like BlueD I assumed the poster meant a Cock ring. If that is the case, why not try it, the risk is fairly low as long as you follow the directions, and some of them add some interesting effects (note: in my experience the vibrating ones with the vibrator running parallel to the floor do not work that well, namely cause the vagina runs the other direction)

If he really was talking a "prince albert" then... ummm... not unless you know her REALLLLLLY well, and even then give it both a second and a third thought.

I fear for this one the simple answer is that we don't have enough info to advise one way or the other.

Is it a cock-ring or a Prince Albert?

Is the reader experienced with sex toys?

If the the piercing then is he someone who already has a selection of piercing or someone who's a virgin as it were.

Personally I'm without piercings and if the missus suggested I get an Albert I'd most likely tell her to fuck off. Although if she could make a real strong argument for what she'd be doing on her part there's a slight possibility that I'd at least consider the request.

Would have to be an incredible offer though. :)

What I want to know is why you're seriously considering a suggestion like this from someone you only *just started* dating.

Buy it and try with the lady, if you don't like it just throw at garbage. Maybe you are good enough at the bed that she want to experience more, or not.

I'm going to assume we're talking about erectile aids here.

There are a variety of types of cock-rings. Snap rings and solid rings. As for snaps, get something with a little give. Avoid the leather snap-on ones, since they do not stretch and shrink after they get wet. The advantage of this kind is that you can put the ring on at any time, even after you are hard.

If you are going to use a solid ring, get a durable silicone one (like what dildos are made of). Some of these even have a little tab on them that rubs your taint, which helps offset the loss of sensation and creates a strong orgasm later. With this variety you'll need to put it on when you are flaccid, and you need to use lube (get the flavored, glycerin free kind).

As almost all cock-rings. Remember but them on balls first, then shaft.

As far as piercings go... just remember that your junk will be out of commission for a while if you get a genital piercing. And I would not recommend getting a genital piercing as your first piercing.
