prince albert for chastity--initial thoughts
Posted: Fri Sep 19, 2014 9:09 pm
Here is information I was looking for before getting my PA...just paying forward all the great advice and insight i've found on these forums.
Wanting more security in chastity is what led me to get a PA piercing. Even though the idea of it made me squirm, I did the internet research and was encouraged to read that most guys experienced very little pain from the actual piercing...if anything, the most uncomfortable aspect was the insertion of a tube into the urethra.
So I planned ahead and bought a set of urethral sounds and an 8mm urethral plug with a "thru hole" and glans ring for all day wear. The first time sounding was a little weird, but in no time, I got pretty used to things going up my pee hole. I also really liked the the plug--it became my favorite piece of jewelry. After a few weeks, I felt I was ready for what I'd read was the most uncomfortable aspect of piercing and set up an appointment with the most reputable (and expensive) piercing businesses in the area.
Now, I had to decide on the gauge. I'd read that most people started at around 12 or 10, which was discouraging because most chastity devices that make use of some sort of locking PA mechanism use a larger diameter pin of 3-4 millimeters (8 or 6 gauge)...if I was going to have to start at 12 and then stretch up 6...longer process than I wanted.
I asked to see a 10 gauge curved barbell, and, compared to my 8mm plug, it looked like a strand of wire! The 6 gauge appeared much sturdier, and, as the piercer said that gauge could be done safely, that's what I chose.
I was pretty nervous, but felt more confident upon feeling no discomfort at the insertion of the urethral tube. Whilst taking a deep breath as instructed, I congratulated myself on having trained so well for the event.
The actual piercing hurt, I won't lie. I suspect the larger gauge needle hurts more than a skinny one. My piercer never cautioned me about the pain factor...only advised me about safety...and I appreciate that. I'm a big boy who's there to get his dick pierced...was I expecting it to feel good? Anyway, the piercing also took a bit longer than I expected. And when my piercer gave me after-care instructions, I didn't hear any of it except for the part about no sex for 6 weeks. I managed to get my pants on and pay the bill (plus tip) and didn't even leave behind my wallet or cell phone.
I was pretty amped but drove myself home just fine. Two beers and some ibuprofen and I felt pretty normal again. Just took my first piss--it was easy--and no blood or anything. Now, I'm sitting here writing this (about three hours later) feeling good about having done it all. Very little swelling or soreness. I would never tell anyone else what to do, but I'm glad I got the 6 gauge--seems safer and requires less stretching time. If I had to do it again, I definitely would.
But I won't lie, it did hurt.
