plugs may also be susceptible to cross-contamination from the toys that it comes
into contact with. Not only can this be a problem when it comes to chastity belt
being used by more than one individual, but it can also be a potential concern for
a single user if it allows harmful bacteria to be transferred from the anus to her
vagina.
A second potential safety concern involves the prolonged wear of chastity belts.
Typically, chastity belts are used for short periods of BDSM play or discipline.
Unfortunately, there’s always someone who pushes the limits of good sense and
tries to keep his sub, slave or bottom in a chastity belt for extended periods of
time. This is almost always a very bad idea. While it’s true that a chastity belt
can be very good at keeping penises, hands and toys out of the wearer’s crotch,
it can also be very good at keeping harmful bacteria in and creating the perfect
environment for serious bacterial infections. There are no hard and fast rules for
how long is too long when it comes to wearing chastity belts, but it’s generally a
good rule of thumb to ensure that it doesn’t interfere with the wearer’s routine
personal hygiene.
The third and final tip is not so much a safety concern as it is a personal dignity
concern. Never forget that it can sometimes be harder to unlock a lock, than it is
to lock it. People sometimes do stupid or malevolent things. Keys get lost,
jammed or broken off in the keyhole. Combinations get forgotten. Locks can
malfunction. When something like that happens to you while wearing a chastity
belt, it can add a whole new dimension to your predicament, depending upon
where you are, who you’re with, and whether you have ready access to a heavyduty
set of bolt-cutters. One woman found herself wishing she had thought of
that when her steel chastity belt, which her husband had padlocked onto her just
before she left for the airport, set off security alarms as she passed through the
metal detectors in December, 2003. She explained to the authorities that her
husband had put her into the device because he was convinced she intended to
have an extra-marital affair. Eventually, she was allowed to board the flight
while still wearing her steel chastity belt, but if she thought her embarrassment
would be over at the end of her travel itinerary, she was wrong. Six weeks later,
she was mortified to learn that the incident had been reported in USA Today to
the bemusement of millions of readers.
