Reader Question: Chastity and Orgasm Control: How Does Chastity Work in a Relationship?
Dear Dr. Kinky Team,
My boyfriend and I have been together for three years and about a year ago discovered our BDSM side – I'm dominant, he's submissive. We've already tried a lot (bondage, spanking, roleplays), and everything is great fun for us. For a few months now, he's been talking more and more about wanting me to control his orgasms and keep him chaste – with a cock cage.
The thought turns me on totally: The idea that he can only cum when I allow it, that he constantly thinks of me and "belongs" to me, really gets me hot. He also says that the idea of surrender, frustration, and the power I have because of it excites him extremely.
But we're both total beginners on this topic. We've already ordered a cock cage, but I have many questions and a bit of fear:
- How do we start best – slowly with a few hours or directly longer?
- How long is "normal" – days, weeks, months?
- What do I do if he has pain or can't take it anymore?
- How do I integrate it into our everyday life – he has a normal office job, we live together, do sports, meet friends?
- How do I keep the lust high without it becoming boring?
- What if I sometimes have no desire for dominance or we argue?
- And how do we handle emergencies (e.g. if he has to remove the cage)?
We want to try it absolutely because we notice how much it could bring us closer – he becomes more attentive, loving, and I feel powerful and desired. But we don't want to do anything wrong and neither hurt him nor burden the relationship.
Are there tips for beginners? How have other couples introduced it? And how does orgasm control work long-term in a normal relationship?
Thank you very much for your help – we're excited and a bit nervous!
Best regards

Chastity and Orgasm Control: How Does Chastity Work in a Relationship?
Dear Curious Aspiring Keyholder (and Your Submissive Boyfriend),
thank you for your open letter! Chastity and orgasm control is one of the most popular topics in femdom relationships – and for good reason: It creates intense surrender, enormously increases lust, and brings many couples even closer together. You're on the right track with your curiosity and caution. Many couples start exactly like you and report later: "It was the best decision for our relationship." Here's a detailed, practical guide for beginners.
1. The Basics: What is Chastity and Why Does It Work So Well?
Chastity means that the dominant partner decides on the submissive partner's orgasm. Often, the submissive partner (usually the man) wears a chastity belt or cock cage that prevents penetration and full erection. You as keyholder keep the key and decide when he is stimulated or allowed to cum.
The appeal:
- For him: Constant reminder of you, growing frustration that turns into deep surrender.
- For you: Power feeling, his attention and tenderness often increase enormously.
- For the relationship: More focus on each other, more intense sex upon release, better communication.
2. The Safe Entry – Start Slowly
Cage Selection and Fit
- Measure exactly (guides available at reputable shops like Locked in Lust, Holy Trainer, or Oxy-Shop). A too tight or too loose cage leads to problems.
- Start with a plastic or silicone model – light, hygienic, and cheap.
- Wear time initially: Just a few hours, then one night, then a weekend. Increase slowly to days/weeks.
Safety First
- Always have a spare key (e.g. in a sealed envelope or with a trusted person).
- Emergency: Most cages can be removed with bolt cutters – have one in the house.
- Hygiene: Daily shower, Q-tips for cleaning, baby powder against chafing, let him take the cage off regularily under supervision to wash himself.
- Warning signs: Strong pain, numbness, discoloration, urination problems → Remove immediately and if necessary doctor.
3. Orgasm Control – The Heart
- Initially: Short periods (3–7 days), then release with intense sex.
- Later: 2–4 weeks are common, some go to months – but always individual.
- Ruined Orgasms or Milking as middle way: He "cums" without full pleasure – keeps frustration high.
- Teasing is Mandatory: Send photos, let him pamper you without himself being touched, give tasks ("Today you wear my favorite underwear under your jeans").
The teasing keeps the dynamic alive and prevents boredom.
4. Integration into Everyday Life
- Job and Sports: Most men wear the cage without problems in the office or running (with correct fit). Loose clothing helps.
- Friends and Family: No one notices – the cage is discreet.
- If You Have No Desire: Pauses are okay! Say "Today vanilla day" or let him out. The dynamic lives from enthusiasm, not force.
- In Arguments: Remove cage or pause – arguments and chastity don't fit well together.
5. Avoid Common Beginner Mistakes
- Too fast to long periods → Frustration instead of lust.
- No teasing → The dynamic becomes boring.
- No check-ins → Emotional problems (e.g. sub-drop) remain unnoticed.
- Forget that it should be fun – it's a game, not a prison.
6. Successful Long-Term – Tips from Experienced Couples
- Regular Check-ins: Every few days ask: "How do you feel? What do you need?"
- Rewards and Punishments: Good task fulfillment → Earlier orgasm, bad → Extension.
- Creativity: Change the chastity device, integrate apps (e.g. Chaster for timers and tasks).
- Plan Pauses: After long lock-up a "release week" – keeps motivation.
Many couples report: After the entry, he becomes more attentive, tender, helpful – and the sex upon release is explosive.
7. Resources and Community
- Books/Blogs: "Locked in Love" by Key Barrett, "Chastity: A Guide for Couples," or blogs like lockeddoc.com.
- Our Community: In our club Magazine there are various articles and experience reports on chastity. As members, you can speak directly with other keyholders and locked subs.
- Online Courses: We offer courses for Femdoms and subs that include the topic – with checklists, teasing ideas, and safety tips.
Conclusion: You're Ready – and It Will Be Great
Dear Both, Your Enthusiasm and Caution are the Perfect Base. Chastity is no "All or Nothing" – Start Small, Communicate a Lot, and Adapt It to You. Most Couples Who Start Don't Want Without It After.
Enjoy the Journey – The Frustration, Teasing, Surrender, and Explosive Releases. It Will Bring You Closer and Elevate Your Relationship to a New Level.
Lots of Fun and Safe Lock-Up Time
