Jailbird from Mature Metal

There are tons of write ups on this device so I'm likely to not say anything someone else hasn't already said. I didn't have anyone to play with when I first started thinking about chastity. After reading a number of blogs, I realized "inescapability" and potentially longer term chastity were what I was interested in. I chose the Jailbird for a few reasons. The stainless steel catered to the mind game of being inescapable. Reality with any cage device, of course, is it's possible to get out. But not if you have a Prince Albert (PA) piercing. More about that further on. 

Mature Metal was very easy to deal with and had good communication throughout the process. You definitely want to order the set of plastic sizing rings. That is really the single most important piece to the whole cage. You have to have one that fits perfectly. Not too big and definitely not too small. You want to be able to keep the ring on comfortably for an extended period. I forget what they recommend but it's probably for a day or two at the very least. I'd recommend a week. One thing to note is the rings are perfectly circular so things are going to get rubbed differently than the ring that comes with the cage. It's slightly oblong, which is what you want. Pay very close attention to what they want you to measure. if you have any questions - ask for clarification! There was one measurement I didn't quite understand and I slightly missed the sizing. The good news is it was a very simple fix. And here's a key point. You're going to measure the length for the cage. And if you're a typical guy, you'll "think" you need a longer cage. They warn about that and recommend going slightly smaller. I paid attention and did just that. Now, after wearing it mostly full time for the past couple of years, I wish I'd gotten it even 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch shorter. There's space between the end of my cock and the cage. You want it to be snug when you're limp. It helps peeing when the hole is nicely lined out. And when I'm bulging out, the length doesn't make any difference because the result is the same. Tight and uncomfortable. But in a good way. Know what I mean?

Because I planned on longer term wear - weeks or more at a time - I wanted something that would make it reasonably easy to keep clean. The Jailbird is perfect for that. While I shower a do a squirt of shampoo or body wash and use that to clean all around that area. Even doing that, however, I do find it necessary to wash my cock off before my girlfriend uses it. Partly because you are definitely going to need some form of moisturizer every day. The metal can rub you raw in spots. And that is no fun. MM recommended an aloe vera gel. And that's been perfect. It just takes a tiny dab to run in under the base ring. I've found I also do better if I work it around the bars of the cage itself because those can sometime make the skin irritated. You should do that every day you wear the cage.

So, again, the cage is great and it's become quite comfortable most of the time. Most of it is mental, honestly. The first few times you wear it you'll feel things you've never felt before and think the world is coming to an end. Take it off, relax, and try it again for a little longer the next time. Now, about security. As I said, if you want to, it is possible to pull the end of your cock out of the cage. It's that flexible a member. Probably won't get the balls out, but who knows. I liked the idea of not being able to do that so I got a PA piercing. While Mature Metal does not have a model specifically designed for PA's, the Jailbird works quite well with a lock I found on a German web site. Once that's on, there literally is no escape unless my girlfriend allows it. Period. When she doesn't have it locked, rings and bar bells work fine. You can also use those little plastic security locks.

Finally, I'd recommend finding a comfortable jock strap or underwear. Will probably require some experimentation to find something comfortable for you. But it makes a big difference in long term wear if it's not rubbing up against everything all day. Especially good for muffling the clicking of locks against the metal cage.
