What is Edging?
Edging is a sexual technique in which a person brings themselves or their partner close to the point of orgasm, then deliberately stops or slows stimulation to delay climax. This process is often repeated several times before finally allowing orgasm, resulting in heightened sexual tension and intensified release.
How does Edging Feel?
For six years, I was trapped in a custom chastity cage, and edging with male masturbators was the only way I could have sex for months at a time. I came to the point where I would rather be edged for an hour than have a 10-second orgasm and then suffer the depression that comes after it. I try to explain edging by saying that it's like the feeling you get when you reach the top of a roller coaster and start to fall and lose G's. The journey down the top of the mountain is an orgasm. I like the first feeling better than the ride down the mountain.
I once came and had an orgasm just by thinking about it. No physical or visual stimuli at all, just gathering positive energy all over my body and sending it to my cock. In other words, I was manifesting or picturing pleasure while I was very relaxed. The edging for this was different; it was more like riding a long wave or feeling a wave slowly pulling away. I came pretty strongly, and it was a full-body orgasm that was really spiritual. As a guy, I've never had one like that or believed it was typical.
Why is Edging So Amazing?
Mental Reasons: Have a Longer Orgasm and Learn Your Limit
There are two main reasons to edge. The first reason is that when you finally decide to finish, the orgasm is more longer and stronger. Instead of the quick release that usually follows typical stimulation, edging allows sexual tension to build over time, amplifying the final climax.The second reason is that you and your partner can have more fun and learn your boundaries. You also learn how your genitalia work and what makes you feel good. And the last release is stronger, with contractions that are often stronger. During an orgasm, some people lose control for a short time. If you know how to edge, you can stay sexually excited for longer without stopping the game.This might also be healthy for the prostate.
Physical Reasons: Inhibit the Prolactin and Increase Your Dopamine
You don't release prolactin when you edge, which is great because it's a major part of your satiation and fight-or-flight reactions. It also makes dopamine, the "feel-good" hormone, less effective. Do you know when your brain produces dopamine? Levels of dopamine, the neurotransmitter associated with pleasure, are higher in the brain when you are expecting a reward rather than getting one. When you edge without orgasming, you're taking advantage of your body to feel good without telling it it's done and doesn't need anything else for a while. So, edging without orgasming is pretty much the same thing as hacking your body to feel great without letting it know that it's done and doesn't need anything else for a while.
How to Achieve Edging?
Divert Your attention
It is really easy to edge. You stop masturbating when you're about to ejaculate. Give your erection some time to go down. Then start masturbating again, and then stop at the brink again. Take a break and drink a soda. Come back and start masturbating again, and then stop at the edge again. Give it a few minutes. Wash your face. Come back and start jerking off again. Keep doing this start/stop procedure as many times as you can stand. Stop, start, and do something else to remove your mind off your penis. Then start again. Eventually, you won't be able to stop, and you'll go over the brink. Get ready for a huge orgasm.
Change the Stimulus
You can use your hands, lips, sex organs, and male masturbators to edge with a partner. Talk about how to let each other know when you need a break. It can be a phrase or a gesture, whatever works best for you. When one of you is about to climax, try shifting positions or the intensity of the experience. Instead of penetrative intercourse, try touching. Instead of oral stimulation, try using a male masturbator. You can start with a few edging cycles and then add more as you go. During breaks, give each other sensual massages. The more cycles you do, the more blood will flow to your pelvic area. This builds excitement and might make orgasms stronger.
