Hello everyone, As you can see, this is my very first post on these forums. I am spending my first hours in a chastity device- a “Curve”, as this thread’s title suggests. A few questions have arisen during these first hours of use, and I’m hoping to get some advice from some more experienced users. Before I proceed, I should mention I’m using the largest U-ring (2 inches) and the longest locking pin. All in all, I find my device pretty comfortable right now. But I must say it took a lot of effort to put it on. My testicles barely (or don’t?) fit in the U-ring. I had to squeeze them in. Getting my penis into the cage was even harder: it took a lot of attempts incorporating squeezing, half a bottle of lube and even ice. The result is cramped. Like I said, it’s not bothering me (right now), but I’m worried this device might be a bit small for long-term use. I’ve got quite a bit of skin that is “folded” (for lack of a better word – English is not my native language) under the U-ring. I can’t imagine how I’m going to keep the consequential “grooves” in my skin clean. The skin in the cage poses a similar problem. There is almost no free space in the cage, because my skin is being pressed against the sides. Some skin even pours through the gaps in the cage. I took a shower earlier while wearing the device. Because of the lack of air/space in the cage, parts of my penis remained moist for hours after the shower. (Water between my skin and the side of the cage.) Another odd thing about the result of my “assembly” efforts is the position of the whole device. When I look at pictures of people wearing a Curve, the locking pin is more or less horizontal (with the wearer standing upwards). When I’m standing upwards, the locking pin is a lot more vertical, almost facing down instead of pointing away from the wearer. Also, in these pictures the distance between the U-ring and the body (abdomen) of the wearer seems to be minimal. There is at least a whole inch between my abdomen and the U-ring. So, on to the actual questions The most important one I have, is whether my concern regarding the size of my Curve device is justified. Is it simply too small, or should I give it some time? I recall reading that one’s body adapts to the rings around one’s testicles, but I’ve never read anything about folded skin. Is it realistic to expect such an adaptation in my case? And if so, how do I handle the hygiene of the folded skin in the meantime? Also, is it normal for the penis to be squeezed in the cage? I understand it is to be expected when one is excited, but I can’t say I notice much of a difference between being excited and not (when it comes to the squeezing). Can I expect any change here, similar to the aforementioned adaptation to the U-ring? As for the hygienic side of this problem: should I avoid getting my penis wet like I did under the shower? I have read about using special cleaning products and (tooth)brushes. Does that mean humidity is to be avoided in any case? And finally, a bit more of a technical question: what is the spacer for? It might be possible that I’m failing to see it’s use because of the odd position of my Curve. To everyone who has reached the end of this lengthy post: thank you for reading it! Any and all advice would be appreciated.
Erm, well I have a 6000 and have similar issues, from my experiance having areas moist for extended time is a bad thing, I think the Curve and 6000 have the same width of cage but the Curve is longer. Maybe your folded skin is casuing the device to align oddly? The distance from abdomen is likely cos your still hard?
Welcome Van-zijn-meesteres.. Now thats a mouth full. Even when this is my first and only language. To say the Curve is too small. Your in the wrong place. Porn Star comes to mind. But give it some time and I'm sure things will find their place. As for the spacers. They are to take up the space on the locking post so things can't move. This way once you have found your tightest gap between balls a penis tube, you should not be able to slip out the back of the tube. But from the sounds of it, that won't be your problem. When I first got my cb3k and then later my Neosteel belt, I thought many of the same thoughts. But once "he" calmed down and my mind slowed down from hearing the lock click, things just find a comfy spot. You sound like what is called a show'r, that meaning your penis is mostly the same size all the time and only grows some when aroused. Others like me, are a grower. Meaning I go from almost nothing to almost enough. Well depends on who you ask!! lol So smaller cages with small gaps between the balls and cage work best to keep me in control and not slipping out of the cage and doing something I shouldn't be doing. Cheating!!! Without knowing or seeing some pictures of you, I think you have too loose of ring around the balls, and too much gap between the balls and cage. But you will have to take it slow and work yourself down in ring sizes and spacers till you find what works for you. Welcome again, Missy Tanya
Thank you both for your input. As you may have guessed, I have written my first post in a bit of panic state. Being able to discuss it like this is helpful. I must admit I get very excited every time we try to put the Curve on. Not very convenient, as you will probably be able to imagine I'm looking forward to being able to calm down like you are, Missy Tanya! Anyway, I have kept on trying these last days. I've switched to the smallest spacer, but I can't say I see a lot of improvement. I've taken some pictures. I hope they will aid in determining the problem. It was cold when these were taken, so I think this is about as small as everything gets. I have succeeded in getting the largest ring (2 inches) very close to my abdomen, but it slides down as soon as I attach the cage. I think you're right about that being because of the ring size, Missy Tanya, but I don't think I'll be able to fit anything smaller any time soon. How much time do you guys think it'll take? As for getting my penis in the cage, I'm getting used to the idea of using a cold/hot pack (being very cold of course ). Still, I'm worried about hygiene. Any pointers there? Thanks again! PS: Picture quality isn't all that good- we need a better camera!
Thanks for posting this review, and pictures. I don't have a device, but I think I'm in the same camp. Can anyone suggest devices for larger guys? What are the biggest rings on the market, and with which device? Big thanks.
I am new and have the curve.I grow to 8 inches so i thought the curve would be good.But it seems it allows slight growing which causes discomfort.I to reduced ring size and gap with posotive results.Also try using the smoother spike as a spacer to stop your skin coming back out the tube. Looks like a smaller device stops the innitial grow.
nothing stops a cock from getting hard when it wants to, especially in the morning. A smaller device will not stop it either it may cause much more discomfort though and if in the case of a 6000, if you are big enough it will split. My case is the latter, I want to go with a curve becasue of the extra room. Not much mind you but more nevertheless. When I am in the CB6000 and i get erect it simply pushes the tube and the rings away from my body as it tries to accomodate the growth, which it can't, not a hope of it. So the ring pulls my balls forward until they are almost popping through the back of the ring. Simple isn't it? This is how I have extra tubes to repair as I got tired of returning them. I would say the curve may be the best idea here. (See my post in another newer thread) and best of all I have never read of a "curve" splitting. subklik
I found this site very helpful: http://denyingthumpe...ips-and-tricks/ Some more useful tips and tricks: http://subservient-h...11/cb-6000.html Like Thumper suggests, I got one of these to use to keep things clean: http://www.amazon.co...35905253&sr=8-2 I fill it with warm water and put about a half teaspoon of antibacterial liquid soap into it and use it to squirt into places that I can't reach myself. Once everything is soaped up well, I tug the tube/ring assembly around to lather up inside, then use the same bottle, with clean water, to rinse everything out well. I use cotton swabs to dry everything out the best I can, then use them to apply a light coat of silicone lube inside the tube and lotion under the ring. My CB 6000S fits the same way your Curve does, which has never been an issue for me. It actually seems to help keep it 'hidden' under clothing. As far as the rings and pins/spacers go, you'll want to use the smallest you can comfortably, Thumper has outlined the best way to do this. Not only will this provide you/your keyholder with the most security, but it will also give you the most comfort in the long run. The more plastic you have down there, the higher your chances of pinches and odd positioning will be.
