Beyonce, Guess Where This Pleasure Ring is Worn? @CalExotics

Your love is what I prefer, what I deserve
Is a man that makes me then takes me
And delivers me to a destiny, to infinity and beyond
Pull me into your arms
Say I’m the one you want
If you don’t, you’ll be alone
And like a ghost I’ll be gone

[Chorus:]
Cause if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it then you should’ve put a ring on it
Don’t be mad once you see that he want it
If you liked it then you should’ve put a ring on it

Purple grey or pink?  What’s your style?  Actually we’re not reviewing the kind of ring that Beyonce coveted in her song.  On Leather and Lace Spice we’re reviewing something that gives pleasure in another way:  the Embrace Pleasure Ring from California Exotic Novelties!  This “pleasure ring” is meant to be enjoyed by a couple.  Less poetically known as a “cock ring”  this one has a built-in vibrator. It is worn on a man’s penis to pleasure both him and his partner.

Tony’s thoughts:  Although cock rings have been used historically for doing things such as sustaining and erection, the modern use is to hold a vibrator so that a woman’s clitoris is stimulated even when the male’s public bone doesn’t make contact with the clitoris due to either sexual position or size off penis vs. depth of vagina.    Most of the modern cock rings,  including this one,  are not size adjustable,  rather they are overly large and depend upon position to keep them in their proper place.   

In the case of this Embrace Pleasure Ring,  as is true with most of the vibrator/cock ring combinations, it is most effective in the “doggie” position where the female would not normally be directly stimulated. The weight of the vibrator causes it to center in line with where the clitoris would be during penetration.  With multiple speeds and patterns  to which the vibrator can be set,  it seems likely that you’d most often find a pattern which is stimulating to the female and mildly stimulating (or at least not irritating) to the male.

Although more cumbersome in missionary position or in the female superior positions (since it has to be manually positioned and will not stay fixed), a cock ring can be a pleasant addition. Note, however, that it does not work at all if the female is lying on her side.  That said, this product is better than most due to its large contact area (three times as large as most) and a choice between a textured presentation and a flat presentation. Also, the fact that it is one piece of silicon rubber makes it easier to clean. I like the idea that it is rechargeable (and lightweight) and doesn’t require a cable and battery pack. 

Alison’s Thoughts: I’m all for encouraging couples to try new things. Toys are the spice of (sex). This Embrace Pleasure Ring looks elegant, not tacky, with a sleek design and it is relatively quiet. If you don’t find the idea of something vibrating bumping up against you during intercourse as distracting or intrusive, you may find that this Embrace Pleasure Ring adds an extra dimension of pleasure to your sex play. If you want to “put a ring on it” you can get 7 functions of vibration, pulsation and escalation and play for up to 2 hours on the highest speed or 3 on the lowest.  You can recharge the pleasure rings batteries (and yours) in just  70 minutes. The controls are on the side of the ring, so both of you can reach around and find a speed that moves you.  Hold for 3 seconds to turn it off, but you’ll have to pull out to remove it, of course.
