I'm hoping to be writing articles for an online magazine. It's sort of along the lines of Maxim but based in Calgary. This is my "please hire me " article. Let me know what you think.

You want me to wear what?!
The man and the penis ring
The scenario is you and your girl hanging out one night and somehow the conversation has changed and now your sex life is the topic. You're head is nodding as she's speaking and just as your attention begins to shift towards the television, your ears are forced to stand to attention the moment you hear the words "I'd like to try something new". "Okay" you respond but your guard is up. She then proceeds to tell you about something called the Rockin' Rabbit, which is a penis ring with a clitoral stimulator. As she begins to rave about the dual vibrating eggs all you can think is, "You want me to wear what?!"
Easy tiger. Let me give you some insight into what is probably going through your girlfriend's mind. Sex with you is probably wonderful (after all she's still with you right?) but there's this little thing called clitoral stimulation that would send your sex life into orbit. Enter the dreaded toy. Products such as the Diving Dolphin and the Rockin Rabbit are designed with both partners in mind, which is probably what caught her attention. These two particular products have vibrating eggs that are held in place on top of and on the underside of the penis ring for dual stimulation. Also on top is a built in clitoral stimulator that sits in front of the egg and vibrates for her maximum pleasure. Right now you might be thinking something along the lines of "but why do I have to wear it" or " what's the point of a penis ring" so before I get ahead of myself, let me explain.
Your basic penis ring was originally designed with a few things in mind. Preventing pre-mature ejaculation and having stronger erections are two results of wearing a ring but the general idea is to prolong intercourse. How you ask? This is where my job as a sales associate in a sex shop comes in handy. After you have an erection the penis ring is placed at the base of the shaft and tightened until comfortable (adjustable rings are better). This places pressure on the urethra, which carries semen and urine, acting as a dam and holds blood in the penis for a stronger longer lasting erection and a more intense orgasm. Good, basic penis rings will cost you around 20$. Names to look for would be "Julian's Stud Ring", "Just Ring It", or "Dr.Richard's Ring". These are all adjustable rings, which are much more effective than the stretchy kind. CAUTION: Make sure you don't wear a penis ring for longer than half an hour. This could cause too much strain on the urethra which you definitely do not want
Now that I've covered the basics, I'll address the main add on to your basic penis ring. The vibrating egg. For the most part, this addition is for the woman's pleasure but not entirely. Instead of keeping the egg on top of the ring, it can be turned so the egg is on the bottom of the penis. This will increase the erotic sensation as it vibrates against the testicles make the sexual experience more intense. The bonus of buying a ring with the option of adding an egg is that the egg can be used individually by the female alone, or with you (if she wants). Good quality rings that include the egg are "The Invisible Man" from Penthouse or "Male Attitudes" by the makers of pleasure skin. To elaborate a bit on pleasure skin, it's a more realistic feeling material as in it's softer and nicer to touch. These will run you about 10$ more than a regular ring. If that's where you want to stop, that's fine, you've now got new toys to discover and have fun with. If you're still intrigued, there's lots more, just keep reading.
You are now faced with the decision between two of my favorite products on the market. Both the Diving Dolphin and the Rockin Rabbit fly off the shelves as soon as we receive them in stock making them more and more popular every week. The main difference between the two is the controller for the vibrating eggs. The Rockin Rabbit has two controllers, one for you and one for your partner. The Diving Dolphin only has one controller with the dials for both eggs. It's all personal preference now. If you're still a little iffy about trying this but will do it for your girl, maybe you should let her have all the control but on the other hand, you could want to keep that controller handy in case things became a little too intense. Word of advice though, do NOT make this decision yourself. Unless you decide you're going to play the part of Casanova and rush out to buy one after reading my article (which I doubt), take your girl out to choose one with you. It'll be an awesome bonding experience and I promise that both of you will leave the store with a milloin things to think about and some you might actually want to try.
I'm now going to tackle the male ego. Don't get your panties in a bundle and skip through this paragraph; just bear with me because you just might be one of the guys that will identify with this. You probably read my caution in the third paragraph and started thinking something like "...but I can last for longer than half an hour." I'm happy for you but don't let that stop you from adding a little spice into your sex life. A penis ring can be worn at any point during sex. So if you're Mr.Stamina, do your thing and when you feel ready, add the Rockin Rabbit and away you go. For those of you who aren't Mr.Stamina, have no fear; this could be what you've been waiting for. Girls are very understanding creatures. Sure we may have been put on this earth to seduce and then confuse the hell out of you but when it comes to sex, for the most part, girls want both partners to be satisfied. So by suggesting a penis ring she's not saying you're bad in bed, she's saying she wants you to get the most out of sex as well. So suck it up, realize that this isn't a blow to your ego and that she wants this best for you. *Phew* That was more difficult than I thought.
Before I end this, I'd like to leave you with a few suggestions. If you've never bought a toy before, make sure you buy toy cleaner. This is the most important thing to buy when purchasing any toy. This will cost about 10$ but you need it since using soap can build up bacteria which will lead to a yeast infection (ew ew ew). One more thing that will come in handy, LUBE BABY! This you can choose by yourself and make it a fun surprise. Pick out a flavored lubricant that will make things a bit more tasty. My two favorite brands are "Oh My" and "I.D." Both of these are very good, the only difference being Oh My is completely natural while I.D is not. Oh My also contains hemp for added moisture. Lubricant will not only make sex smoother (for lack of a better word) but it will also make sliding on the penis ring a lot easier.
Now comes decision time. If you feel you want to surprise your girl by picking out something yourself but still have questions, feel free to contact me. Most sex shops have fully trained and knowledgable staff that are more than willing to answer any questions you might have. Ask around to find out what stores are decent or I can point you in the right direction. Don't be shy. If your girl brought this up, now you have some additional information to think about. If this is the first time you've thought about a penis ring, maybe you can be this first one to bring it up. Communication is the key here guys. You know your girl better than I do and you will know how she would react to a proposal of this kind. All in all, my thoughts are go for it. Take a walk around a sex shop and see what they have to offer. If the idea of a penis ring weirds you out, there's tons of toys to choose from that couples can use and have fun with.
I hope I've helped to clear the air and answer some questions you might have had. It's a win/win situation and you definitly have nothing to lose by spending an hour in a sex. Have fun and stay safe.
