So I wear the cage every day at work and home (wife leaves it is on, wife comes home it is on); 1-week to date. I don't wear it at night - yet - cause of the morning erections. The cage is a 1-1/4" and I get striations on the penis head when I take it off. The foreskin bunches behind the first 1-1/4" ring though the shaft is a good diameter. I may get 1-3/8" cage to hold it all with no rubbing for the longer term. Thoughts?
To be honest, it looks like a good fit. My jailbird left similar lines, fit perfectly, goes away if left uncaged for a bit. Had a Chinese Amazon cage that was a bit longer, and morning wood was a lot easier, and left no lines...unless I have a long teasing session.
OK. Your cage is the same size as mine. It took me about 6 months before I wore my cage at night. Four years later I feel uncomfortable if I am not locked up. I do get the very occasional morning wood but not enough times to be a problem. You just have to do it for a few weeks to let your body adjust. Also try not to drink liquids a few hours before bedtime. I have only been woken up by an erection 3 times in the last 3 years. This morning was one of them which surprised me but I am on my 4th week of orgasm denial and I know that tonight will be just a ruined orgasm. Wife wants me to wait 3 more month till my birthday but do not know if she will follow through with that. Sometimes she gets carried away and forces me to orgasm. Just keep wearing it at night and put up with it for a few weeks. I also found that sleeping with a pillow between my legs made it easier.
Although little dents in your flesh from the bars is normal, a slightly wider cage is probably a good idea. My Jailbird is perfect for long term wear, but my flesh doesn;t protrude between the bars as much (when soft) as in your photo.
Mine is 1 1/4 diameter as well and when I take it off I have lines on the head where is is pressing into the bars, but they go away in a few hours outside the cage.
Thanks for the help. I think 1-3/8" cage will do. What about the gap - should I increase it by 1/8"? Will the balls slip out with a wider gap?
The current cage gap is 3/8"; the gap would increase to 1/2". I was thinking it would put less pressure between the penis and the balls. But I don't want my balls to escape due to too large a gap.
The only time I had a ball escape on a jailbird was when I used a smaller padlock. It allowed some rotation on the pin. It shouldn't rotate at all.
