Unlike most male toys, cock rings complement partnered play more than solo use. It’s not to say men don’t love it for their alone time. They can’t get enough of how it makes their penis look bigger and harder. 


But it’s even more fun when you have a partner to witness the transformation. Your partner gets to join in by sharing the right with you at the same time. If you have a vibrating ring, your partner can decide the extent of the stimulation you receive too. 


There are so many benefits to cock rings for partnered play, let’s take a quick look. 

Turn Up the Pleasure Dial

Cockring


To understand how a cock ring is capable of enhancing pleasure for both partners, you have to understand what it does and the types available in the market. 


The ring-shaped sex toy is worn at the base of a penis or a dildo, restricting blood flow to the area. The ring commonly covers the shaft and for more adventurous users, the shaft and the balls. 


Because of the tight squeeze, the cock ring keeps the penis hard and bigger. You will understand why this is a huge cock ring benefit for partner play as we get into the types of penis rings. 

1. Adjustable Cock Rings

You want to go for an adjustable ring if this is your first cock ring experience. For example, the PerfectFit Neoprene Snap comes with 4 safety snaps. You don’t need to size the ring beforehand. 


You can adjust the size as your penis gets bigger and easily fit it around your balls. Taking it off is even easier. 


Adjustable rings like this have an ergonomic design. It’s not this big obstruction when you’re trying to have penetrative sex.


Instead, it keeps your erection up longer so you can enjoy the moment more with your partner. Cock rings also make your penis overly sensitive. When you do have an orgasm, it feels way better. 


Because you feel good and have more confidence, you can make the sex much better for your partner. 

2. Stretchable Cock Rings

Stretchable rings are usually made of soft silicone. The closed circular ring type fits around your shaft and balls. 


The ring is easy to take off. Your partner can play around with the right while you’re wearing it. They can twist the ring tighter or pull it to snap it back in. 


Depending on the mix of pain and pleasure you like, it can make for an interesting time. If you want to use a stretchable band with your partner, you can try the Rocks-Off Rudy

3. Vibrating Cock Rings

Vibrating cock rings are a gift for the wearer and the partner. Cock rings already make you sensitive. The vibration only adds to the sensation, especially since you can decide the exact speed. 


Vibrating rings are even more appealing to your partner. During penetrative sex, the ring comes in direct contact with your partner’s clit. Some are designed so the vibrations hit your partner’s prostate. 


Working with a vibrating ring can take some practice. Experts recommend burying yourself deep in your partner before moving your hips in a circular motion instead of in and out. 


Vibrating cock rings have a bit of variety too. Something like the Calexotics Tongue Enhancer has got small teasers to offer fluttering sensations along with vibrations to your partner’s clit. 


The Screaming O My Secret Bullet combines a bullet vibrator with the ring, so the bullet can massage your testicles or your perineum. Your partner will feel these vibrations as well when you have sex.


The Zero Tolerance Bell Ringer comes with ticklers, which is similar to the tongue teaser ring, but with a rougher feel to it. 

4. Textured Cock Rings

Think of any style of cock ring with a bit of pattern and textures. Some people like the extra bit of sensation, more so when they feel the sensation with every brush of their penis against their partner.


Depending on the design of the textured ring, you can feel the textures on the ring at the same time as your partner during sex. The Sugar Grinder is the perfect example of this, with its body-safe TPR composition. 

The Dynamic Duo: Cock Rings and Communication 



Unless your reason for buying a cock ring is completely for solo use, your cock ring collection is as much your partner’s business as yours. 


If you’re going to be using cock rings together, it would be smart to look for one together. As much fun as cock rings can be, there’s no guarantee your partner will like the vibrations or the rough texture against their clit or perineum. 


It’s important to have a conversation on whether the ring will be completely for your benefit or theirs as well. If they’re fine with you having it on during foreplay, but would rather you remove it during penetration. 


On the other hand, it wouldn’t do any good to force your partner to wear a cock ring either. Not everyone will enjoy it, as it can make their penis too sensitive. 


So, have a clear conversation beforehand. It might do to have a serious conversation on the positions as well. 


Experts recommend the missionary and the receiving partner straddle the one wearing the ring to get the best out of the ring. 


Overall, try to make partner communication a priority before you introduce cock rings into the bedroom, or any sex toy for that matter. 

Final Thoughts

Ultimately, cock rings have several benefits during partnered sex. They keep you hard long enough for you to take the time to bring your partner close to orgasm.


Considering 80% of women don’t orgasm from penetrative sex alone, the little teasers and vibrations at the clit when you’re wearing a cock ring can also turn up the heat. 


If you’re serious about having double the fun and creating a truly good time for your partner and yourself, it’s time to start exploring cock rings. Preferably, your partner will have input about the kind you can use.
