How to Use a Vibrating Cock Ring with Your Partner
One of the biggest questions we get here at Betty’s Toy Box is, “How do I introduce sex toys to my partner?” It can be a touchy subject for some who feel that wanting to use a sex toy in bed is a critique of their performance. Nothing could be further from the truth!
Vibrating cock rings, penis rings, couple’s rings – whatever you choose to call them - are some of our bestsellers, which means lots of couples are using them and loving them. Essentially, it is a ring that fits snugly around the base of the penis and under the testicles but also has a vibrating bullet attachment. You both get to enjoy it because a snug ring can delay ejaculation, while the vibration can stimulate the clitoris or perineum of the partner. If you have trouble achieving orgasm during penetration (and believe me, you are in the majority), this is a great way to get the stimulation you need and the time to build up to a stronger climax.
There are various styles, shapes, materials, and prices so let’s look at some popular ones and see what they do.
For the Absolute Beginner
Go for something stretchy and easy to slip on, with an attached branch or bullet that will touch your partner's hot spots. Apply a bit of lube if you're worried about it catching in your pubic hair while you're slipping it on. Some of these rings can be very inexpensive (under $10) and can be a great introduction to whether it's an idea you and your partner enjoy.
More Bang for Your Buck
A step up from a beginner's ring, pricier cock rings don't have to be difficult to use either. What you can expect to get with an increased price tag includes the following features:
- USB rechargeable rather than battery-operated
- More substantial yet still stretchy materials
- Stronger and more rumbly motors
- More ergonomic and body-friendly fits on the external branches for your partner's anatomy
- Manufacturer warranties
For the Tech Geek
Cock rings have really evolved in the last 5 years, with the introduction of bluetooth control and apps that let you really customize your vibrations and allow a partner to control how the ring reacts. These are great for couples in long distance relationships or for some naughty play in public. They also free up your hands for other fun activities.
Ball Huggers, Girth Enhancers and Specialty Rings
If you're looking for a truly mind blowing experience, you can try any number of the specialty cock rings that are now available. Some of the fantastic features you can find include
- A vibrating, girth enhancing branch that slides into your partner along with your penis, giving them internal and external vibration and making everything seem tighter
- Ball cradles that hug your testicles and massage them with extra vibrations
- Warming functions that give that thrilling extra heat
- External ticklers and rabbit ears to stimulate a partner's clitoris
Cock rings make a versatile and thrilling addition to any couples' play time. With something for every budget and desire, they are truly the unsung heroes of the sex toy world.
