How to Put on a Chastity Cage [+illustrations]

I am going to show you how to put on a chastity cage in 3 easy steps.

I’ll show you two different methods to put your chastity cage on and wear it:

  1. the regular method, and;
  2. the modified stocking method.

And I will do so using a photo tutorial to make it easy to follow.

If you’re looking for a chastity cage we’ve conducted a “best in test”-list here.

Method 1: How to Put on a Male Chastity Cage in 3 Easy Steps

#1 Lube Up and Slip on the Ring

Use any personal lubricant and lightly apply it to your entire flaccid penis – you cannot put on a chastity cage if you have an erection – and testicles.

Slip the ring over your penis and behind your scrotum, so the ring is against your body.

#2 Place Your Penis Inside the Cock Cage

Place the cage over your limp penis, making sure the locking pins and holes line up.

If properly fitted, the cage should not be too tight.

You should have a little bit of room, all the way around, without enough space to get an erection.

Then, with the pins on the ring aligned with the holes on the cage, connect them.

#3 Lock the Chastity Cage

Method 2: Using the Modified Stocking Method

Sometimes men may encounter a problem when putting on a cock cage; their penis just won’t go all the way into the tip of the cage.

This can be troublesome as your penis needs to be close to the urine opening to relieve yourself without making a mess or pee pooling in some tips of cages.

Therefore, someone came up with the stocking method which easily pulls the shaft and glans to the bottom of the cage without having to do so using your fingers, a tool, or utensils.

However, since some guys had a problem with the stocking sticking to the penis and causing the foreskin to gather at their glans, someone came up with the modified stocking method, which minimizes that friction.

So, this is how to put on a chastity cage using the modified stocking method:

#1 Fold the Stocking

Using a single, knee-high stocking for women – or thigh-high stocking or pantyhose cut to the size of a men’s over-the-calf sock – fold the cuff of the stocking down until it is even with the toe.

#2 Slide the Stocking Over Your Penis

Place the folded stocking over the head and shaft of your penis

#3 Thread the Stocking Through the End of the Cock Cage

After sliding the ring over the base of your penis and your testicles then putting the cage over your penis, pull both the toe and cuff of the stocking through either the urine hole or lower opening of the cage.

Now, lock the chastity cage.

#4 Pull the Stocking Out


Once the cage is locked, gently pull the toe of the stocking.

This will pull the head of your penis toward the bottom of the cock cage and cause less friction as the stocking slides against itself.

Once you are comfortably where you want to be, pull the toe and cuff together to remove it from the cage.

Why Would Someone Wear a Chastity Cage?

Chastity cages are used regularly in BDSM as a form of submission and control over the ability to achieve an erection, masturbate, or have sex by the dominant person in the relationship.

Some couples may try using a cock cage to fulfill a fantasy or to keep a cheating partner in line. But I think this quote from Vice writers Zak Krevitt and Thomas McCarty, said it best:

“While the thought of this makes most men cringe, it makes others whimper with excitement. Being caged can be extremely exciting and fulfilling. Some people say orgasm denial increases your sex drive and improves your focus.”

So, whatever the reason one chooses to wear a cock cage, it’s something they want to do and therefore derive pleasure from that act of trust and submission.

What’s it Like to Wear a Cock Cage?

Honestly, I cannot answer this question as I am not a penis owner nor have I been a keyholder – although locking my ex’s penis in a cage would have brought me mountains of pleasure for other reasons.

However, from everything that I have read, those in BDSM relationships are committed to being submissive and enjoy having that control thrust upon them. And they enjoy how the steel feels against their skin as well as the uncomfortable feeling of the cage denying their morning wood.

In addition, some men have locked up their penises to show their wife or girlfriend they are completely committed to staying faithful and saving their relationship. Like this guy from Quora:

“I was a compulsive masturbator and my wife threatened to leave me. I offered to wear a chastity device and at first, she scoffed at the idea. But after mulling it over for a couple weeks, she suggested we enter into a sexless marriage for a trial period of 2 years during which time I would wear a chastity device 24/7.

 She would keep the key. As she traveled a lot with her work, her mother kept the other key [but didn’t know what it was for.]

Wearing the device brought my masturbation habit to an end cold turkey. It was horrible at first but I grew to accept it. By the time the 2 years were nearly up, I told her I would like it to be permanent.”

Others submit to male chastity devices in order to stop all sexual thoughts and acts, rendering their penises shrunken and useless. They actually thrust that control upon themselves willingly. And, still others just lock up their penises to see what it’s like.

For example, HuffPost writer Brain Moylan documented his days caged and put a hilarious spin on his experience in this online article. I laughed so hard I couldn’t breathe! Next time, Brian should consider an open-sided cock cage for sure!

Can You Remove a Male Chastity Cage?

Okay, you may be reading this and asking, “Can you remove a chastity cage?” Well, if it has a cheap lock, sure! Furthermore, if it’s a male chastity device made of leather or silicone.

However, depending on the circumstances as to why you are wearing a cock cage, you may not want to remove it due to the repercussions of the key holder.

However, if you decide to take bolt cutters, scissors, and any sharp objects near your caged penis, proceed with caution!

Does Wearing a Chastity Cage Hurt?

If you’re considering trying a male chastity cage, you may be wondering, “Does wearing a chastity cage hurt?” The simple answer is no, it shouldn’t hurt unless that is your BDSM goal.

Properly fitted cock cages leave room for your penis to breathe without chafing or pinching.

Therefore, it’s important to get the right ring and cage size so wearing the chastity device won’t hurt.

Will a Chastity Cage Make My Penis Smaller?

This is a question that I have run across several times when researching this article.

And although there have been no studies, that I can find, a long-time chastity cage wearer may lose some length and girth due to not using the penis – just as other muscles lose tone when not exercised regularly.

However, once the penis is freed and allowed to be erect regularly, they are restored to their original size, shape and function.
