Since the pandemic, most of us are probably tired of the word “lockdown.” So, some of you may raise an eyebrow when hearing about “Locktober” and think twice before reading further. Don’t worry – in Locktober, the lockdown only applies to your dicks, while you yourself are free. We’ll explain what it’s all about, why the “chastity month” exists, and how it relates to No Nut November.
Locked up in October – Jail for Your Dick
You’re all familiar with No Nut November – where you voluntarily refrain from jerking off and ejaculating for a month, just to fully enjoy Destroy December afterward. If you’re active on social networks and have any interest in BDSM, you may have come across a new hashtag. #Locktober stands for “Locked-in October,” which can be amusingly translated as “Jail for Your Dick.”
If you participate in Locktober, your best part will be locked in a chastity belt for the entire month. The softer version skips the cage, simply enforcing a “no-masturbation rule.” You must remain chaste to make it through Locktober. The specific rules are set by your Dom, who puts your dick on lockdown.
There are different ways to do this:
● Locked Up: The hardest version of Locktober goes beyond the mental challenge. The Dom locks their sub’s dick no later than October 1st and doesn’t unlock it until the end of October 31st. Even those who aren’t Halloween fans will have something to look forward to by the end of the month.
● Mental Chastity: It’s possible without a penis cage, relying solely on the power of the mind. Your Dom may instruct you to remain chaste for the entire month, and if you behave, you’ll stick to it. Even though there’s no physical chastity belt in this version, the end result is the same.
● No Touching Allowed: Some gays are forbidden from ejaculating during Locktober but otherwise have no other restrictions. Others are not even allowed to touch themselves or be touched by their Dom in the genital area.
Who Invented Locktober?
There isn’t a single creator of “Locktober.” Most gays today believe that the platform Tumblr is where it originated. There were blogs discussing it as early as 2017, even before it was mentioned on “X” (formerly Twitter). Since 2017, there have been more and more posts on YouTube and other websites. Many sex workers and online Doms offer their services during Locktober.
Although it’s unclear who exactly started Locktober, it’s widely associated with the BDSM community. Sure, some vanilla couples may take a sexual pause in October, but chastity cages are likely less common in those cases.
What Are the Rules for Participating in Locktober?
As a sub, you don’t get to decide whether you participate in Locktober – your Dom makes that call. There are no fixed rules since chastity is a highly personal and individual matter. Some Doms are strict and require you to wear a chastity cage for at least 31 days. In intimate relationships, a simple prohibition may be enough, provided your Dom trusts you.
The exciting news is that you, as the Dom, can set the rules for this special month yourself. What is your sub allowed to do, and what’s off-limits? Some Doms even permit orgasms, but only if they happen while wearing the chastity cage.
Experienced gays take it a step further by using Locktober to practice techniques like tease and denial or anal training. As a sub, you might find your Dom penetrating and stretching your asshole throughout the dick lockdown period, without ever letting you climax.
Why Is Locktober So Hot?
A whole month without sex, jerking off, or cumming? For some of you, that might sound like torture. Why would anyone voluntarily give up being horny for a month? There are actually some good reasons. Imagine you haven’t touched your dick for a month, haven’t cum, and have been constantly horny. How intense and filthy will that first orgasm after your chastity-month feel? For many gays, this alone is reason enough to endure the 31-day break.
In the end, it’s also about personal pride. Are you a chronic masturbator who could cum several times a day? Can’t imagine going a whole month without touching yourself or leaving your lover’s ass alone? You’ll feel incredibly proud of yourself once you make it through and reward yourself with a royal orgasm.
Ultimately, it’s also a thrilling experience for your keyholder to have control over you for 31 days. They can jerk off, enjoy themselves, and relish in watching you endure your constant horniness. Mischievous tricks and steamy games make Locktober even hotter.
Is Orgasm Allowed in Locktober?
In some BDSM forums, you’ll find that orgasms aren’t as strictly forbidden in Locktober as they are in No Nut November. The key is “how” you orgasm! Ideally, as a sub, you shouldn’t enjoy the climax – it’s all about mechanical milking. This can actually be helpful, as it prevents you from suffering from blue balls or “post-orgasmic pain.”
A prostate massage is a great way for your Dom to milk your shaft. Your dick stays locked in its cage but releases the built-up juices.
Be warned: a ruined orgasm where you ejaculate but don’t feel relief is especially brutal. You don’t experience the satisfaction of release, but you still lose sperm. The torturous horniness remains, which is exactly the point.
Combining Locktober and No Nut November?
While Locktober is a popular BDSM practice, No Nut November has become a widespread internet phenomenon. Many men participate to challenge themselves or to enjoy more jerking and sex in December.
Whether you should combine the two months depends on your willpower. Since the two months follow each other, you’d theoretically have to abstain for two months straight. If you decide to go for it, stock up on lube and condoms for December – you’ll have a lot to catch up on!
