    I was always concerned about restriction and urination, so thank you for replying. I’m loving the idea of getting something basic and adjustable, then moving to a better one when I find a comfortable fit. I wasn’t sure how long you can wear them, then you tell me days and weeks? I’m now actively shopping for one.

      Wearing length is also depending on the cage type and your body.

      Normal, comfy cage? Most can, after some training, wear them basically indefinitely (physically, actually doing that mentally requires either a lot of dedication, a lot of satisfaction from it (eg. to help with bottom disphoria), or a very stern dom :3). There’s a whole subreddit about that, r/permanentchastity.
      Flat or small cages often require that you don’t get hard often, especially rockhard. So often, you’ll see people taking Estrogen actually wear them casually. Fetish cages, like spiked, are more for short term locking.

      Idk what my max is, but as my life is very chaotic, probably not even that long, but very often.

      Also, if you have a cage you can clean well, you’ll not even have to take it off that often, maybe let your partner clean it for you at a good cycle (eg. where you notice that you or the cage needs cleaning. With metal cages, also just boil them for a few minutes then.)

        Do you mind if I ask why a cage helps with bottom dysphoria? I’ve been seeing a lot of cage-related content on lemmy, and I’m not sure I understand why they’re so popular.

        I mean, wouldn’t I want something that keeps me tucked all the time, rather than something that prevents me from tucking?

          You can wear a cage all the time, and it does for some reason feel like it’s not there anymore for me then. Or at least doesn’t feel like a dick. And idk about tucking, I’d guess it’s not really practical on a daily basis.

            It would help with my anxiety about random erections (I still get anxious even though I can’t remember the last time that happened 😅), and I do hate how it makes me feel when people always want me to top.

            Maybe I should do some research, see if there’s something like a cage that keeps everything tucked. Or at least smooth enough to wear tighter fitting clothes.
