Thursday night was a little surprising. Mrs. Lion didn’t feel up to spanking me. I suppose that means she will probably be ready tonight (Friday) or Saturday. I was happy she chose to wait. She also gave me wonderful oral sex that included an orgasm–more good news. We plan to go to the casino this weekend for our free dinners. Never reject free food!

On top of that, we have to start getting ready for our new arrival. We will be picking her up next Friday. It’s been nine years since Daisy was a pup. Willow is coming to us at eight weeks, just like Daisy. We are struggling with what we have learned about spaying her. Recent studies have revealed that spaying a golden retriever at any age dramatically increases the chances of joint problems and cancer later in life. We were led to believe that if we wait until she is six months old, there is less likelihood of these problems. Apparently, this isn’t the case. We have to weigh the risks of accidental pregnancy against the increased probability of joint disease and cancer.

At lunchtime on Friday, a van pulled up and delivered a nice bouquet. We were both puzzled about where it came from. It was from the vet and the Seattle Veterinary Specialties hospital where Daisy spent her last day. We were very touched and shed some tears. Wow! How thoughtful.

This has nothing to do with male chastity. It’s just another chapter in our little soap opera. Since I’m unspanked and sexually satisfied, my inclination is to snooze in the shade. Speaking of which, the insane heat disappeared as suddenly as it arrived. Daytime highs are in the 70’s again. People from our part of the world are weather wimps.

Since this post is a miscellany, I wonder about how many other males have no pubic hair. It’s been so long since I’ve had any. I can’t remember what I looked like when furry. There seems to be a trend for women to let their pits grow out. I’m not too fond of it. There, I said it! I have a strong preference for hairless pubes and pits. Aren’t you glad I let you know?

useful hacks

If you use Microsoft Office 365, there is a free program that lets you preview future versions. It’s the Office Insider program. I like it a lot. If you do a web search for it, you can get instructions on how to join. The current version has a word/sentence completing feature in Outlook that I love. Unlike Apple’s, it’s very smart. It shows you what it thinks is right in light grey. If you agree, hit the tab key, and it fills it in. Cool!

If you write, there is a great tool that provides excellent, real-time proofreading. It’s called Grammarly. There is a useful free version and a paid upgrade that is nothing short of spectacular. Give it a try. It installs itself into browsers and Office. This tool keeps the blog clean and grammatical.

Windows 11 is coming soon. If you belong to Windows Insider, you can get a preview version that is probably not stable enough to be on the PC you use all the time. This program offers several levels based on how much tolerance you have for bugs. I use the highest level, which is the prerelease version. This is the version of Windows installed on my machine when I worked for Microsoft. It’s stable and has nice preview features. Soon, a stable version of Windows 11 will be available. I think it is a nice improvement of Win 10.

Male sex toy hacks

I’ve been evaluating male sex toys for many years. I seem to be immune to almost all of them. I’ve tried everything from Fleshlights to Autoblow. None got me off. Only two are pretty reliable in giving me orgasms: the Magic Wand vibrator and the Venus 2000. You probably know about the Magic Wand. A cordless version costs about $125. It’s the gold standard of vibrators.

The Venus 2000 (may have a different name now) is made by the guy who makes the Sybian female sex-machine. The Venus device uses a vacuum pump and a rubber sleeve inside a larger plastic cylinder. It accurately simulates a blow job. It took me a while to work out exactly how to set it up. It needs tunings for your particular penis. Once set correctly, it feels wonderful and got me off every time. I used this device years ago.

There is a new crop of male vibrating toys. They are based on super magnet vibrating motors. These motors deliver a much stronger force than traditional toys. They rival the Magic Wand in some cases. These toys, like the Jett (search for it), deliver excellent stimulation. They aren’t cheap and never worked for me. Your experience may be different.

Male sex toys, called “masturbators” in the trade, are designed to stimulate that area on your penis just under the head—some like the Fleshlight attempt to duplicate the feel of a mouth, anus, or vagina. There are lots of these toys out there, but they aren’t very different from one another. Mrs. Lion provides my only reliable way of getting off. She’s perfect!

Willow at 6 1/2 weeks. She is sweet and likes to snuggle.

We are both very excited about our new puppy. She is arriving at the end of next week when she will be eight weeks old. The breeder isn’t a professional kennel. It’s an individual with years of dog breeding experience. This litter is her first of golden retrievers. I think she did a good job of learning about the breed. Both parents have received genetic testing and examinations for the common problems the breed faces. Our wonderful dog Daisy suffered from most of them. We wanted to be sure that we wouldn’t get another puppy with such heartbreaking issues.

Her name is Willow. We got to meet her and her mother on Wednesday. Both are perfect! Mrs. Lion wanted to take home two puppies. I’m very worried about having just one. I’ll be home with her during the day. I’m not as good at getting around as I used to be. It will be a challenge managing a frisky puppy. I’m sure it will work out well. We both have a lifetime of experience living with dogs. Willow is an English Cream colored golden. It’s a new and popular color. Her parents came from Europe.

On the lion side of the agenda, Mrs. Lion is sticking to her guns when it comes to twice-weekly spankings. The weather has cooled off here, and she will be much more comfortable blistering my butt. I won’t be comfortable at all. I have a couple of slightly tender spots. As Mrs. Lion likes to say, “Oh, well.” Humph!

Her technique is improving. Coverage is extending to areas that were previously untouched. I can truly feel the difference. She spent a little more time spreading my crack and spanking inside. She also got my perineum. Ouch! She is definitely “improving.” Poor me!

She gave me oral attention on Wednesday night. I was easily aroused but had a very hard time getting to the edge. Mrs. Lion will try again after my spanking. It’s fun even if I don’t have an orgasm.

Mrs. Lion didn’t post yesterday because we spent 12 hours on the road. We drove south of Portland, OR, to meet our new puppy. She is a beautiful English cream-colored golden retriever. She’s just under seven weeks old. We will be able to bring her home in a little over a week. She is wonderful! It was love at first sight.

Mrs. Lion spanked me on Tuesday night. Mrs. Lion swatted me for more than fifteen minutes–ten for the “just because” and five more for not setting up the coffeepot. It was horrible. By the time she finished, I was sweating and near tears. I’m sure she will write more about it in her post later today. She took a picture, so you will be able to see the results. I’m feeling them now as I sit at my desk.

I woke up on Wednesday morning with an erection. That hasn’t happened in a while. Mrs. Lion thinks my spanking is the reason. It’s true that I’m horny. I would prefer to believe it is due to how long it’s been since my last orgasm. On our drive back from Oregon, I said that I think twice-weekly spankings are too much. I’m not so sure. Mrs. Lion should probably follow that schedule until she has more data.

The marks on my bottom are not from a recent spanking. When this photograph was taken, I hadn’t been spanked in more than two weeks.

One byproduct of frequent spankings is discoloration of my hindquarters. There are marks that look a little like bruises but aren’t. When I checked out some spanking videos, I noticed that some of the guys being spanked looked like they had already been paddled. Now, I think the marks are like mine. What does this mean if a doctor sees me? Talk about embarrassing!

My second just because spanking is scheduled for tonight. The weather is cool, so I have no reason to ask for a delay or cancellation. I don’t really want to. I can’t deny the very visible evidence that there is a possible correlation between spanking me and my subsequent arousal.

We, males, are genetically programmed to expect ejaculation to follow sexual arousal. Every woman knows the sequence of events. She knows that once erection is achieved, the launch sequence has begun. It’s “wrong” to get a man hard and not let him finish. There are subtle variations on this theme. In my experience, if the erection is spontaneous, that is, she didn’t touch my penis, then the woman generally doesn’t feel obligated to make me ejaculate. If she helps my erection along, then there is an implied promise to get me off.

It’s a simple transaction. If the woman didn’t intend to make me hard, she has no guilt if she ignores my arousal. This social convention has served humanity for a very long time. Unfortunately, it also sharply limits the amount of fun both sexes can have. Granted, the continuation of the species requires the traditional practice. We’re past that now.

Consider this: If a woman likes a man, or at least is attracted to him, she can freely touch him anywhere she wants. This includes his penis. She can consider his erection a compliment. He doesn’t expect her to make him ejaculate. Of course, he wants her to, but it isn’t expected. Exactly how the date ends is up to the couple.

This is how male chastity works. I love it when Mrs. Lion plays with my penis. I know that this play will get me very aroused and want to ejaculate. I also know that she feels no obligation to give me an orgasm. Almost all of the time, she stops before I can have an orgasm. Initially, I considered this a power exchange with Mrs. Lion. On one level, that’s true. On another, we have established a new sexual language. Stimulating my penis is not a signal I will get to have an orgasm.

My cock is just another area she can pet that I enjoy. There is no promise that I will ejaculate. In fact, it is understood that I won’t. I wonder how many women would enjoy petting their date’s penis if there was no implied promise of more. Would that increased level of intimacy provide a nice runway that eventually ends with orgasms for both?

If sexual touching is a nice thing people can do without any implied promises, we could all have more fun. Yes, we males are programmed to go for the gold if we get aroused. That doesn’t mean we can’t be trained to enjoy sexual touching without a happy ending. Wearing a male chastity device trained me. I’m having a very good time.
