What is chastity play and why is it trending?

In 2025, there will be a noticeable shift in how people experience intimacy. One of the most noticeable trends is chastity play . This phenomenon revolves around sexual abstinence and control, often performed with special chastity belts or cages that restrict access to genitals. But why are more and more people choosing this?

Control, surrender and trust

Chastity play is not just about abstinence, but more about the play of power and surrender. The "wearer" carries a toy that is often locked with a key, controlled by a partner (called the keyholder). This requires a huge amount of mutual trust and offers a deep emotional connection.

Locktober and community

Every year in October, 'Locktober' takes place, a month in which people around the world voluntarily participate in chastity. Online communities share experiences, challenges and tips. This trend is growing explosively and shows how mainstream this once niche game is becoming.
