Krystine Kellogg FLR Podcast Review

In this post, I’m reviewing the Krystine Kellogg FLR Podcast. Male chastity and the female led relationship (FLR) often go together like fish and chips for chaste guys in relationships who are chastity device wearing enthusiasts.

I have never been part of an FLR though I’ll admit the concept has always fascinated me. For that reason, I’ve read a good deal about them, and today I stumbled across an awesome podcast focused on female led relationships. As a bonus, the presenter, Krystine Kellogg, often discusses male chastity. Since I’ve been binge listening today, I thought I’d post about the podcast.

What to Expect from the Krystine Kellogg FLR Podcast

So far, there are nine episodes. Some of the episodes are as short as 7-9 minutes in length, but most run around twenty minutes. That makes it easy to find time to listen for those who don’t have a lot of time to spend listening to podcasts. Personally, I love podcasts and have several favorites I listen to daily. Krystine’s FLR Podcast is definitely now on my list.

The latest episode, Episode 9, “Tips on introducing chastity to your significant other,” has a lot of actionable tips from a dominant woman’s perspective on how a guy who wants to wear a chastity device might go about starting the conversation with his wife or romantic partner. Episode 7, “It’s Locktober boys. Let’s talk about male chastity,” is another good episode where Krystine candidly shares how she and her husband got started with enforced chastity.

So, if female led relationships is a topic you’re interested in, check out Krystine’s FLR Podcast on Apple Podcasts. I give it two thumbs up and gave it a five-star review on Apple. You can also find Krystine on Twitter and her blog at https://krystinekellogg.com.

What's Coming Up Next

Generally, how I roll is, I self-lock most of the time, and when I need a little boost in motivation, I turn to a professional keyholder. Now at 157 days and counting, I need that lift again.

A few days ago, I happened to have a brief chat with a very enchanting professional dominatrix who, among other things, offers online keyholding. I’ll be trying out her service very soon, but the exciting part is she has agreed to allow me to feature her keyholding service here on Cut to the Chaste.

It’s the most organized, well thought out keyholding service I think I’ve seen to date. We’re working out time for an interview at the moment, and hopefully, the feature article will be the next post. So, if you have ever been curious about contracting with a professional dominatrix for keyholding, you won’t want to miss the next post.

After Locktober Ends

What happens for you after Locktober ends? The captioned image above is from one of the most memorable, iconic scenes from the 1979 American epic war film directed, produced, and co-written by Francis Ford Coppola, Apocalypse Now. With napalm canisters exploding behind them, Lieutenant Colonel William “Bill” Kilgore delivers in an uncharacteristic, matter-of-fact tone the absurd line to Captain Benjamin L. Willard about how much he loves the gasoline smell of napalm in the morning because it smells like victory. Then Kilgore looks into the distance and says wistfully, “Someday this war is going to end.” That line speaks to the idiosyncrasies of war. Yet, it adds to the uncanny and invulnerable quality of Kilgore’s character while signifying the far-reaching effect war has had on his mentality.

I wonder if there are chaste guys out there thinking to themselves somewhat wistfully, “Someday this Locktober is going to end.” Perhaps this is your first Locktober, or maybe you’re someone with years of experience wearing a cock cage who has participated in Locktober many times. My question to you, if you’re new to male chastity and participating in your first Locktober, is this. What happens for you after Locktober ends, this 2020 edition, in eleven days? Has the experience of having your penis confined in a chastity device had a far-reaching effect on your male mentality? Or, has Locktober been only a fun challenge to discover whether you have what it takes to stick it out for thirty-one days? Are you counting down the days to when you or, hopefully, someone else unlocks you and frees you from the cock cage? Or, will Locktober 2020 become the start of something bigger for you?

Reflecting on After Locktober Ends

It wasn’t Locktober when I had my first experience wearing a cock cage, but I had signed a contract with a dominant woman where I agreed to wear the chastity device for one full month. It was hard, maybe even harder than I’d expected for about the first seven days. But after the first week, it got easier.

Frankly, I’m not sure I would have lasted the entire month had I only self-locked. But very quickly, it became essential to me not to disappoint the woman who locked me. While I was determined not to give up, I admit about midway through; I was counting down the days to the end. I was eager to experience some relief from all the pent-up sexual energy. But, the experience of having my penis confined in a chastity device that first time did have a far-reaching effect on my male mentality.

It was almost surreal how wearing a chastity device started to affect me both mentally and emotionally, and how quickly it happened. It was literally like a night and day difference. Cock cages confine the growth of the penis during an erection, and that can become quite uncomfortable. As a result, the brain starts to tell the penis to become flaccid again. Eventually, this constant correction trains your mind to make your penis hard only when your keyholder authorizes it or once you have reached some goal you set in advance if you self-lock. When you reach that milestone, it’s easier to forget about your cock, on which too many of us guys have had the habit of lavishing too much attention, which frees you to channel the sexual energy into more productive pursuits.

New Goals After Locktober Ends

Perhaps the most recognized aspect of wearing a chastity device is it prevents masturbation and ejaculation, which can be a real benefit for a guy’s relationship since excessive masturbation can be a hidden relationship killer. Preservation of sexual energy can be an enormous part of a healthy relationship. And as mentioned, you can find more productive uses for it. As one example, as a writer, I find that chastity makes me far more productive than when I’m not wearing a chastity device.

If Locktober was just a one-off fun challenge to try, maybe you plan on tossing the cock cage in your sock drawer on the first of November with no plans ever to wear it again. But, as was the case with me, I suspect many first-time Locktober participants will discover they miss all the benefits of the chaste lifestyle when they unlock. They will miss the heft of the device, the feelings of contentment and security that can develop when you’ve worn a cock cage over an extended period. After Locktober ends might be a time to set a new goal for wearing your chastity device for sixty days, ninety days, or even longer.

After Locktober Ends is a Great Time to Try a New Device

Guys locking up for their first Locktober often choose to go with an inexpensive cage, usually one of the Chinese devices available from Amazon, eBay, or another online retailer. There is nothing wrong with that. That was my own approach. Why invest a lot of money in an expensive cock cage until you’ve had a chance to learn whether chastity is something you plan to continue long-term? But after thirty-one days, if the experience was meaningful enough that you feel you want to continue, then it can be an excellent time to start looking at a new device that will be more comfortable for long-term wear.

After growing in popularity and gaining mainstream visibility, there has been a sea change in cock cages. Today’s designs are less brutal, less intrusive, and far more discreet than the cages of yesteryear. After tons of experimentation, I finally found the Amicus from Male Chastity Now, which I believe will be my permanent cage. That is unless I find the Male Chastity Now’s Contender model even more to my liking when I try it on for size soon. But for now, I give Amicus credit for propelling me to my current record of over 148 days locked. It’s simply that lightweight, that comfortable, and that discreet.

Male chastity continues to grow in popularity. That is readily evident from the number of visitors to this site, and others like it and how well-received Hitchhiker’s Guide to Male Chastity has been. I expect the male chastity lifestyle will continue to grow more mainstream as both guys and women learn more about its transformative power.

Someday, and soon, this Locktober is going to end. The question is, what happens for you when it does?
