Not much luck with pumps/rings. Help!

Postby joebloe12345 » Tue Apr 18, 2017 11:30 am

I recently purchased and tried using a "Vacurect" pump device and have tried some constriction bands in the past I don't understand how these devices work well for people. With a tight enough constriction, you can maintain an erect penis, but I find that the base is floppy and unstable. I'm not sure how this allows people to have sex... Anyone with any advice or pointers (no pun intended)?

Pointers, indeed, is the point.

Floppiness, or the hinge effect is an impediment to sex, but is easily overcome. As they say, "Where there's a will, there's a way".

One 'adjustment" one can make is to guide your penis into your partner and use only short strokes, thus using your partner's vagina to keep your penis from changing direction uncontrollably.

Pleasuring without penetration is also possible, sliding your penis up and down her clitoris with gravity and her thighs keeping your penis in contact.

Joe,
Many guys here use a sleeve (see below) to prevent the "hinge effect" ...

I wonder if something like this would help reduce the "hinge" effect??
