But what is a cock ring? Why would I wear one?

Good question! A cock ring is basically an erection enhancer that restricts blood from leaving the penis. Once you put on a cock ring, blood still flows into the penis with relative ease but has trouble getting out resulting in a longer erection.

Cock rings assist in extending the build-up to the climax so you can last longer and enhance the stimulation you receive in your orgasm. To sum it up in the famous words of Kanye West, a cock ring makes your erection "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger."

How do I wear one?

There are multiple types of cock rings but the general rule is you gently pull your testicles through the ring followed by the penis.
