What is Chastity?
Also known as: Orgasm denial, Lock-up
By Mara Vale · Reviewed by Elena Ward · Last updated
Chastity is a form of control in which the submissive surrenders the right to sexual release to the dominant, sometimes with a locking device and sometimes on honour alone.
Chastity in context
The focus is anticipation and devotion rather than the device. A keyholder decides how long the lock-up lasts and whether release is granted, ruined or denied.
Text roleplay suits chastity well: an AI Mistress can run check-ins, tasks and teasing over many sessions without any hardware.
