Is PA the best solution?

I'm kind of late here. I hope your piercing is doing well. Little tip for you...it's probably snagging on stuff because you are using a barbell. Try getting a properly sized ring instead. Be thankful that your piercing is really far back. My piercer didn't make it far back enough and it migrated...my only regret is that it wasn't pierced further back.

As far as the issue with devices riding low...PA isn't going to help hold the device up. It is meant to keep from pulling / falling out. Your base rings are probably too big. But no matter what, ball trap devices ride down sometimes. I built a little belt with clips on the end of it which I clip on to the the device to keep it in place. Its pretty comfortable and not noticeable (basically a length of paracord with small metal clips at each end).

 

There is a Lori adaptation to two or three designs that puts ring in place of th PA hook and is I'm told very effective at escape /pull-out prevention.

I have had a PA for years before TTTWD and have discussed that in other threads. It has proved to be onee of my better moves and even more so since I discovered how to incorporate it with MC

 

I have a Bijou and love it. I have no difficulty keeping it and myself clean and odor free. I got an open filigree design that makes it easy to clean in the shower. There’s almost no need to remove it. My wife lets me out for a “stretch” about every 2 weeks. While it’s off I use a toothbrush and some dishwashing detergent to thoroughly scrub it.

I will also commend Evotion for their customer service.

 

Congratulations! I had an easy time stretching in that range as well. It seems you’re healing nicely. Thanks for providing an update after all this time.

I will say that both are great options. 6ga is the entry point, in my mind. 4ga is the sweet spot.

Are you considering a GlansArmor then against the Bijou? You mentioned Malechastitynow generally and wondering if you were pondering a ball trap Contender.

 

Can you provide detail about the gauge size @Peter Rabbit? Why is a certain gauge the “sweet spot” for you. I have an 8 gauge and not sure why I’d go bigger. But curious why you think that.

 

Ball ring? Not a ball weight. Takes up the slack?
Will work a treat if your sack doesn't the opposite and silly tight.

 

I felt safe in a 6ga ring, tugging and pulling at the piercing. 4ga I had zero qualms. I was going to 4ga because I had to at the time. I do wonder if a well healed 8ga piercing would have been equivalent. People worry about migration. Also some locking/fastened jewelry options aren’t available until 4ga

4ga was merely the consensus view during my research in 2014. But things have changed since. 8ga piercing pins are offered now in MaleChastityNow since 2017. I might have had a shorter wait if that design had been offered then.

I’d love to hear more details about your chastity and your piercing!

if 8ga is working for you that’s great!

 

I honestly would start with a ball trap.

The fit tolerance is greater. A shaft only device can pull and push on a piercing. In my earlier days while I was still stretching I kinda hurt playing with shaft only devices. I never got sore in my ball trap Contender.

That’s just my experience. Others may chime in and say they went straight to a shaft only device and had zero problems. I didn’t. but every penis is unique.

 

You'll be pleased to learn that length is only critical if the length of the device is too long.
In that case you're more likely to experience painful semi-erections.
Your penis is always compressible lengthways, and in the medium range it's much more comfortable when the device is shorter, a little shorter than your actual length so that you are held against the end of the tube without 'wiggle room'.
Most men can compress their penis straight back so much that nothing at all protrudes,
I'd definitely recommend that you use the shorter length, or 10mm shorter.
(65mm isn't particularly short!)

If you have an existing longer cage, I suggest stuffing the end with a wad to obtain your proposed shorter length and wear it like that for a day. That will give you confidence in ordering what might initially appear to be (but won't be) a too short cage.

 

Congrats, 2 gauge is a good size. Versatile, and unlikely to close up on its own.

 

Your erect size won't mean much for sizing, as guys can vary between growers and showers and every shade in between.

Do you have an existing device? If you do, try wearing it with a wad in the end to shorten it.
If you don't already have one, you could get a really cheap device online to try the size you think best and see.

Most guys who do this seriously get through a number of devices before they find the one that fits like a glove. It's a bit like trying shoes or trousers or anything else, you won't know for sure until you actually wear it.

The other thing is you'll change size with different times of year or day. Sometimes I fill my device, sometimes it shrinks away from the end of the tube. There's no 'perfect fit', your body is too variable, so don't get hung up on 1 centimetre here or there.
