What are they, exactly?Ĭhastity cages are anatomically designed devices in which the penis is placed snugly. The first public photos of gay men wearing chastity cages appeared on Tumblr in 2015, and since then the internet has helped many gays to discover sexual abstinence and engage in it with soul and heart. Within gay community, chastity cages have been gaining in popularity for the last five years. Also, a sub-community of straight men are reportedly using chastity belts as restraint to masturbating.
The practice is also adopted by fetishists who are into submission and body modification. The tables have turned though, and it’s now often femme doms who hold the key to their submissive males’ devices. Today, chastity belts are often used in BDSM practices. The earliest authentic specimen of the devices date to 18th and 19th century. We can only imagine how clumsy, heavy and unhygienic these belts were, as they would lead to severe infections and even death. Primitive belts made of leather or metal were used by men on their wives - something like a security measure so that the missus couldn't cheat while the husband is fighting in a war.
The history of the chastity device can be traced back to the Middle Ages. If you are curious to know what makes so many homosexuals practice chastity and “lock up” their penises, let us lead you into the uncharted territory of this trendy new kink. You’ve seen one? Worn one perhaps? Or maybe sexual abstinence is not your thing because you're not into peeing sitting down and depriving yourself of boners? The mere thought of not being able to use your dick for sex maybe makes you cringe, but it sure makes others quiver with excitement! More and more gay men are learning to live a life without getting off.
