Our excitement about edging was short lived. This time I think I let Lion down. I’m pretty sure I did something I shouldn’t have or didn’t do something I should have. We were well on our way and then we weren’t.

I still don’t think Lion is broken even though he’s sure he is. I think he’s got too much on his mind. I think when everything is quiet and I’m yanking on him, his mind wanders off to other things. Thinking about the fact that he might not make it to the edge is one sure fire way to guarantee he won’t make it to the edge. I don’t know how he can clear his mind and just let the action happen.

We took a shower last night. Lion reminded me to unlock him first. I gave my weenie extra attention. The only thing I can think of is that I used the Magic Wand. Maybe I should have just stuck to my hands. I don’t know why the Magic Wand would have caused a problem, but it might have.

I guess we’ll see what happens tonight. Maybe he’s on an every-other-night schedule. The next time we get to the edge I’ll definitely give him an orgasm. Not that I don’t think he’ll consistently get to the edge ever again. I just think he’s due for an orgasm.

Where did the skin go? There is no extra skin overflowing the 1 inch Jail Bird cage. All that is visible is a little bit of the wrinkly skin below the circumcised head of my penis.

Two big things happened on Tuesday night. The first was that Mrs. Lion proved that I’m not broken after all. She masturbated me and got me close to the edge several times. The second, was that she returned me to the 1-inch Jail Bird chastity device. I knew it was coming but it still surprised me a little.

Both events happened without warning. I was particularly surprised that Mrs. Lion only edged me. I figured that if she got me that far she’d go the rest of the way rather than risk me getting stuck again. She was very confident that I’m not going to have the same problem anytime soon. I hope she’s right. I also hope my refractory period hasn’t grown to 10 days.

The 1 inch Jail Bird is absolutely comfortable. It went on without a hitch. Like many of our readers, I’ve wondered what happens to all that “extra” skin when my penis is compressed into the 1 inch cage. I imagined that it just overflowed behind the device. I never really took the time to look, but this time I did.

As you can see in the picture above, there is no extra skin overflowing the very short cage. My flaccid penis is over 2 inches long (see image, left). There is no way it should simply disappear into a cage less than half its length. But it does.

The same thing happens when I wear the Nub. The part of my penis that doesn’t fit into the cage seems to just disappear. The extreme flexibility of a soft penis makes it possible to very comfortably wear a 1-inch cage.

I hadn’t worn a chastity device for over two months until Tuesday night. I think that counts as “re-virginizing me for wearing a chastity device. The 1 inch cage went on very easily. Mrs. Lion had no trouble getting it on and locking it in place. I’ve been wearing it with total comfort ever since.

I never imagined that the penis is so flexible. I love to take credit for discovering how comfortable and practical wearing a short cage can be. I had no eureka moment. I sort of evolved into my 1 inch penis prison. Over three years, I had my Jail Bird progressively shortened: first from one and three-quarter inches to 1 1/4 inch; then, from 1 1/4 inch to just 1 inch in length.

For whatever reason, compressing the penis into a minimal cage delivers, at least for me, the most satisfactory chastity-device-wearing experience. The disadvantages centered around inconvenient wandering of my urethra disappeared. The very short cage keeps it nicely centered where it belongs. The much shorter length of the device makes it absolutely invisible under clothing. Since it takes less metal to make the device, it’s much lighter in weight than the longer ones.

As you can probably tell, I’m a happy camper locked into my 1-inch Jail Bird. I’m even happier that Mrs. Lion edged me over and over on Tuesday night. All in all it was a very good day.

I’d like to take all the credit for last night’s successful edging, but I’m not sure how much I really had to do with it. I did have a hand in it. Pun intended. All I know is that it worked and I hope we’re onto something here.

Maybe it was the outing for dinner and the grocery store that  got Lion excited. Maybe it was the nice ball massage and the not-in-a-hurry way I played with my weenie. Maybe it was the nap he took before the festivities even started. Maybe it was the prospect of being locked away again once play time was over.

It was nice to have Mr. Weenie standing tall and proud as he made his way to the edge. When I was done I sucked on him a little bit. I couldn’t resist. He’s yummy.

For the first time in months, Lion is locked away in the Jail Bird. He was nicely centered when I last saw him. If he’s wandered around I had nothing to do with it. I haven’t gotten any reports of pee gone awry. I haven’t gotten any reports of any cage-related, or horniness related issues. I’m hoping all is well.

When it’s time for a lion shower I’ll unlock him so I can make sure my weenie is squeaky clean. Of course I’m hoping my weenie will be responsive to some soapy shenanigans. I’ve also been giving him and the buns some kisses as I dry Lion off. Sure it sounds silly but it’s just another way to be close and I agree with Lion we’ve been missing that.

Tonight, no matter what happens, Lion will be locked back in the Jail Bird. He needs to feel me even when I’m at work.

half a million people
This is what half a million people look like.

We’re well into our sixth year of blogging. The other day we were interviewed on the “All the Sex” podcast. (Click here to listen). It was a fun experience that both of us enjoyed. If you ever doubted that there are two of us, I think the podcast is proof positive we really are a couple.

After being on the podcast, I started thinking about what all this blogging means in terms of numbers. We have written about 2 million words primarily about my penis. That’s pretty amazing considering that I’m absolutely average. I’ve always published actual photographs of the penis in question as well as my butt when appropriate. By this time well over half a million people have seen my genitals and my naked rear. I think that’s probably more than many porn stars who get paid for showing their stuff.

I’m not having any second thoughts or misgivings. I believe we have done the right thing and it certainly makes sense to me to show you what all those words are describing. From time to time I’ve asked our readers how they feel about such explicit images. Almost everyone who responds say they like them. Cool!

my penis hard and soft
You can decide for yourself. Here I am flaccid and erect. Admittedly, the erect picture is more dramatic, but that’s the same penis.

There have been some limits in terms of what I’ve shown. I don’t believe I’ve ever published any pictures of me ejaculating. The vast majority of the images are of my flaccid penis inside and outside of chastity devices. There have been a few shots when I’ve been erect.

Pictures of my butt have been limited to illustrating damage done by well-deserved spankings and size comparisons to illustrate various spanking implements. I don’t believe you’ve ever seen my bunghole. I expect you probably don’t want to.

Images of Mrs. Lion have been limited to her hand and arm as they hold spanking tools or my penis. I think that’s fine since it’s all that’s really relevant to show of her anatomy. My sexual anatomy, on the other hand, is completely relevant.

Typical butt shot showing the result of a lioness spanking.

I believe that butts and penises are sufficiently similar to one another to make identification of exactly who I am would be very difficult based on the pictures published here. Occasionally I will publish a stock image obtained on the web when we don’t have anything that does a good job illustrating what I’m writing about. But, the vast majority of what you see here is attached to me.

Mrs. Lion enjoys seeing my erect penis. She’s commented that she’s less interested in me when I’m flaccid. She explains that this is because she thinks an erection is aesthetically much more pleasing than a flaccid penis. You can decide for yourself. I’ve published pictures of both in this post.

In the course of my research I’ve run across pictures of other penises. I don’t find them sexually arousing. Clearly I’m heterosexual. However, when I was watching the video on how to wax male genitals I made an interesting observation. Before the waxing began, I felt vaguely repelled by the hairy cock and balls filling the screen. As the wax removed pubic hair, the image was much more pleasing to me. I think hairless balls look much better than hairy ones.

This could be because I haven’t had any pubic hair in decades. It really does look odd to me when I see hair down there. I suppose I look odd to people used to seeing bushy male pubes. The current trend is hairless genitals for both sexes. I approve.

I think a lot of guys who may normally keep themselves bushy, end up removing pubic hair after they’ve been locked in chastity for a while. The hair definitely gets caught in and pulled by the device.

While I haven’t shown my bumhole, I did show a big piece of ginger root painfully nested in my anus.

In fairness, a percentage of what we discuss isn’t focused on my penis and butt. We also talk about our power exchange. It’s true that there is a sexual component to the way I’m punished for breaking rules, but the bottom line is that I defer to Mrs. Lion.

Our readership goes down a bit when we talk about FLRD and spanking. It goes up quite dramatically when we talk about my penis and enforced male chastity. This is completely reasonable. After all, this is The Male Chastity Journal. It isn’t a spanking blog or one about female domination.

As a side effect of the need to illustrate the blog, I have a pretty large collection of images featuring my genitals and rear end. Mrs. Lion and I have both gotten quite good at taking pictures of my penis and ass. How useful!

Because we publish a tweet each time a post goes up, and tweets feature the first image in the post, I’ve had to consider keeping that first image R-rated. That’s true in this post. I’ve long given up on making these posts safe to read at work. This just isn’t a topic that makes sense reading on a bus, plane, or at the office.

I wish that other bloggers who publish naked pictures of other people would consider replacing them with pictures of themselves. I think that when I read about someone’s sexual experience, I want to see the person being written about. Of course, that’s just my opinion.
