Living in a rubber sheaths

[WARNING – This entry contains mention bodily functions (No 1s!)]

I have been experimenting with wearing a new rubber suit / pants to work and thought I should right up my experiences and challenges…

As my particular preference is for being as totally sealed as possible for as much time as possible, certain practical limits are met fairly quickly. Some time ago I wrote up my list of challenges and issue that face the lifestyle totally rubber enclosed person as I wanted a “hit list” of problems that need to be addressed, in priority order, to better be able to sustain my chosen lifestyle. See my entry for "Wednesday, November 23, 2005" for all, but a major one is passing water - urinating, pissing, call it what u prefer. Unsavoury subject maybe, but urination is a basic failing of the body that I need to be addressed in order to live in latex. Of course I could just wear a suit with a front zip, but :

A) Where would the fun in that be!!!

B) I find zips problematic in terms of comfort – and getting in the way of that sleek rubbery “ideal” - the look, the feel, call it what u will.

C) Zips break the whole hermitic seal thing, which is a major physiological thing I like to achieve for prolonged periods (a major turn on for me). Just being able to open an easily accessible zip to get inside is just not “right” in my (deranged) mind.

D) Zips leak sweat (etc) and leave embarrassing puddles all over the place.

E) Being non-stretchy, Zips are a major cause of “rubber fatigue” and seam failure (back zips in particular).

So any way, I prefer to find other solutions as, up till now, I have needed to disrobe or “compromise” (in my mind) via a zip the totality of my prolonged encasement for this body function. When going for new distance records of strict total enclosure, the only other option being planned dehydration and/or pissing in the suit – but both these options are less than ideal and apart from anything else, give an upper limit of only a few days before u start to drown in your own juices.

I tried other things like external and internal medical catheters – but with disastrous results (see previous posts), so sheathes are the current way I am going.

I tried wearing sheaths pants under my favourite shoulder entry suits in the past (which have no access/openings or zips below neck line), but they were not totally successful due to “back flow” problems. Over prolonged periods the cycle of being less/more erect affected the position / fit / and occasional flaccid cycles could affect the ability to keep my male member in the sheath at all. Basically, as access to fine tune the fit and position was impossible, I was unable to guarantee a good seal and so piss would sometime overflow back into the suit.

My current arrangement is a skin suit with a cock & ball sheath built in. To stop it getting in the way, it is usually behind a pouch which is glued to the front of the suit and has a zipper for access. As the zip is not through to the inside of the suit, it does not cause problems of breaking the suits hermetic seal on the body and as it is a very loose fitting pouch (possibly too big and loose), it does not effect stretch/comfort. I have punched a very small whole in the end of the sheath to allow the pipe from my (romantically named) “pissing pants”, which I wear underneath, to pass through. For those who are not sure what I mean, under the main suit I wear rubber briefs/pants which have another cock and ball sheath which has an attached tube at the tip.

This all means that I am wearing two sheaths over my penis. As I “go” in the inner sheath, the tube carries the piss through to the outside either into a collection bag via a one way valve (which maintains my 100% seal from outside air etc). Alternatively the tube can just be used to let the fluid pour down the toilet pan and, when not pissing, the tube is easily plugged off to restore the totality of my seal.

OK, now to my experience… Does it work to an acceptable level, is it comfortable to wear for long periods etc…

Well, it’s still sort of early days, but I would say it does work from a practical view. As I have access to fine tune my “fit” – I have not had problems with my penis not fitting or popping back out, despite my whole groin area being constantly under two layers of rubber. That means a good seal and seemingly much less problems with back flow.

It’s actually currently tricky to be categorical that there are never problems with ANY back flow as, with the current summer temperatures over last month or so, it has been difficult after some longer session to be totally dry from perspiration and this is difficult to differentiate from urine in small quantities. Also, other limitations mean I have not be able to have any really long session (like several days of TE) and often been limited to having just 8 to 10 hours a day. I will report back any problems with longer sessions, but basically any mess so far has been very easy to cope with for these shorter sessions, even on a daily basis.

Now for the rest of the experience… what’s it like to be sheathed daily? Comfort etc… Well to be honest – a bit of a nightmare at first and I am far from totally converted now. My starting point was that I was already quite a fan of just having my penis held gently but firmly by my latex skin suit against my abdomen (or groin or leg). I like having my bits safely stored away and found it comfortable to move around in, and comforting. I had never been such a big fan of sheaths as I missed the feel and security of my genitalia just being packaged in the suit with the rest of me.

In previous sheath suits, I found my member & balls felt more prone and sort of “external” to the suit. At least this suit has a pouch to put my plumbing away into for safekeeping! The pouch being a little too baggy, means I still don’t get all the support I feel when in my normal (neck entry) suits, but it’s much better than nothing. But I am treating the suit (by Cocoon) as a prototype to “train” in and prove/disprove the concept. Good enough for now to press on and see how I cope…

Then there is getting used to the actual feel of wearing a sheath – in my case, wearing two sheaths layers over my penis all day has been very difficult to get used to. It’s a little like going back to my early attempts at wearing rubber TE every day and still try to be able to function as a human outside of a sex scene (performing my work and daily life etc) – only much worse! Of course we are talking about the most sensitive part of my anatomy being in very restrictive rubber encasement hour after hour…

I am hardly hung like a horse, probably below average in fact, but sheath makers (particularly of pissing pants) seem to be prone to making the diameter just that little too tight around my girth. The constant pressure is partly delightful, but also challenging. Getting the right fit and lubrication are even more imperative than ever and I have frequently suffered from uncomfortable skin chaffing and irritation around the tip of the penis. Occasionally the discomfort has built up over successive days to be severe enough to result in me choosing to stop wearing any rubber at all for several days – so a MAJOR issue!

Even when not faced with pain, the sensation of rubber 360 around your shaft is really difficult to ignore! I am constantly made aware of my rubber layers as I cycle through various degrees of erectional extension. I found myself not being able to stop myself having to adjust myself on a regular basis. On the one hand this is very pleasurable sensation and makes me feel very sensual and sexually alive – but when lived over hour and days, this corporeal imperative does make it very difficult to be able to think straight for more than a millisecond! The more abstract the matter, the harder it is to form coherent thoughts as I am regularly distracted by my rubber confined manhood.

Just like my early experiences of living and working in rubber, whole days become a mentally exhausting struggle to function against my instinct to give in to my rubber sexual bliss. The difference being that so far I have not been able to acclimatise to my double sheathes as quickly as with just being in rubber all day. I find that I am failing to be able to take it often and I do succumb. I also I am not able to make new targets in extending my encasement. Still – maybe I underestimate that original challenge with hindsight and I maybe I will start to adjust soon if I force myself through the “wall”. Because the potential prize of improving the practicalities of extended rubber total enclosure is there, I will not yield and will just have to re-double my efforts…

Wish me luck,
Sealed

Hermetically sealed – When I said it, I just meant totally sealed in my own biosphere / environment – the critical thing being to be air tight, water tight & ideally “everything” tight! However, with rubber, I DO happen to prefer for there to be as little air trapped between me and my rubber skin as possible, I just didn’t mention it – but somehow you guessed anyway…

Sheathed undergarment – yes it would be redundant if the main suit was tubed – not a bad idea that. I would prefer it that was as I like a continuous layer. Reason I have it the way I described is to do with the fact that this is a first rough prototype, made of elements I happen to come across or own. I also found it easier to thoroughly wash and dry small items while routinely I only lightly rinse my main suit once a day with only occasional deep cleans.

Once I have the ideal prototype, I intend to commission a suit based on a shoulder entry dry suit style fetish suit. These have a waterproof zip across the shoulders, which surprisingly is an area that requires less stretch than the spine. One of these adequately plumbed should be a good basis for extended and very total enclosure. Of course you still have to overcome the fact that these suits typically do not have hoods or gloves (just waterproof neck and wrist seal), but it should be possible to graft something on. Suggestions please?

I also liked the idea of shorts outside the suit to pack everything away. Good one!

Catheters seem to be a closed door for me as I find them extremely painful. Must be the way I am plumbed as I know some fetishist say they have no problems with them, and I am very envious of them.

I agree that women’s anatomy would seem to be much better suited to long periods of total enclosure and in particular catheters apparently work well if sufficient attention to hygiene is taken. Obviously there are womens periods to deal with – but that gives still a window of several weeks of total enclosure…

( Quoting dark: ) "The ears get little or no attention in the fetish world..."

I'm glad someone brought that up. I wholeheartedly agree with dark's 'ear' statement. Ears seem to be an obscure topic of mention/discussion throughout the [R]ubberist Community.
Although male genitalia varies mainly in size, the concept of 'shape', being more or less a collapsable cylinder with an offset sphere at one end and a cone at its opposite, with exception to the linear contour of the shaft remains the same.
While the outer-ear may viewed as a "C" shape, they are not as comfortably collapsable when pressed back against the side of the head and contain cartilage pinching sensation from standard hoods.

Ch-ears!!!
