Ball Stretching - How To

Millions of men around the world enjoy the practice of ball stretching, for various reasons. In some communities it's a traditional cultural practice for men, while in the Western world it's predominantly for sexual enjoyment or body modification. Find out more about this activity and learn how you can apply this practice for your own enjoyment.

What is Ball Stretching?

In simplest language, ball stretching is as it sounds. Men attach silicone, metal or leather devices to their scrotal sack in order to pull it away from the body and lengthen the scrotum.

Please note: when talking about ball stretching we're actually referring to the stretching of the scrotal skin, not the stretching or deformation of the testicles themselves.

The elastic nature of the skin allows the scrotum to be stretched relatively easily. In the same way millions of people stretch their earlobes with gauges, men can apply this gradual practice to their balls to achieve lengthening.

The two forms of ball stretching

Temporary enjoyment

The use of ball stretchers during masturbation can assist many men to experience more sensation and a larger and more pleasurable ejaculation. The increased excitement of enjoying a new product can immediately lead to a more intense climax and a bigger load. The additional sensation a new ball stretcher can apply to the scrotum and testicles can also increase the pleasure experienced. Keeping the testicles from pulling up toward the body during climax is also known to heighten pleasure and can result in a more powerful ejaculation.

Temporary enjoyment during fetish play and BDSM with a partner is also a common application of ball stretchers. Using metal, leather or silicone stretchers for heightened sensation during power play, submission and domination is very popular. In this instance there are numerous products to use in concert with ropes, floggers, nipple clamps and so on.

Long-term lengthening

Many men find large or low-hanging balls attractive or exciting. For this reason men might engage in long-term stretching of their scrotum, in order to allow the balls to swing far lower than they would naturally be. This is a form of body modification and is similar to the very popular activity of earlobe stretching.

For long-term ball stretching men usually wear a solid metal ring around the scrotum, above the testicles, encouraging the nuts to swing lower. These are worn for extended periods, usually for several hours a day until desired lengthening has been achieved.

This is considered to result in a permanent lengthening of the scrotum.

Is Ball Stretching Safe?

No matter your reasons for exploring ball stretching it's important to be in tune and aware of your aims, your pleasure and what your body is telling you. Always be conscious of what you're doing.

Ball stretching is a safe practice as long as you are being sensible. Take your time, pay attention, stop if you're unsure or you experience discomfort.

As with all forms of play such as BDSM or body modification seek medical advice if you experience any significant discomfort or you have any concerns.

There are risks associated with everything, but the risks change depending on your intent. For masturbation with a silicone stretcher there is really no risk at all. For long-term stretching with a metal ring, or BDSM play with a partner, the risks are higher. Always be aware of this.

Getting started

If you're new to the notion of ball stretching and with to explore it further we would recommend starting out with masturbation and a silicone stretcher such as the Oxballs Cocksling or a Viceroy Reverse Endurance Silicone Cock Ring would assist. These simple, stretchy, comfortable toys will heighten your pleasure and possibly help you to achieve a bigger ejaculation while enjoying your own pleasure. This is a good place to start and you'll have a better understanding of what your interests are with regard to ball play and stretching.

For men who are already familiar with the use of a silicone ball stretcher for masturbation and want to explore more permanent, long-term lengthening of the scrotum, we would recommend the Prowler Red Magnetic Ball Stretcher or the Donut Stainless Steel Ballstretcher. Solid metal rings such as these can be worn for extended periods and will lengthen the scrotum over time, gradually.

We also have various products for men to explore with a partner, for BDSM play, domination and submission etc. Silicone, metal and leather items can be used for these sessions of play.

In conclusion

Ball stretching is considered a fun activity by millions of men. Whether you're seeking to explore new aspects of masturbation and increase your ejaculation or you're seeking long-term lengthening of your scrotum, there are products you can use to achieve both. As always, caution should be applied whenever you're exploring something new, but ball stretching is a relatively safe practice any man can participate in.
