More about Devotional Sex
The Devotee Ring:
the public symbol of practicing Devotional Sex
The
optional public symbol of being a Devotee is a gold ring with a red
garnet stone which is worn on the little finger of the left hand.
Wearing a Devotee Ring is a symbol to both yourself and your partner of
your commitment to fulfill the role of a Princess or Knight and is a
reminder of the joys of practicing Devotional Sex with them.
Of course this public symbol is
optional - not everyone wants to let others who recognize what the ring
means know that they are a Devotee.
A Devotee ring may be worn by just the Knight, just the Princess, or both.
Though I chose a red garnet stone
because I felt this had the right look and feel, when I one day looked
up what some say the meaning of stones are, I read:
Garnet
gemstones are regarded as the stone of passionate devotion; toward
family, friends, the self and purpose in life. Believed to stimulate
the senses, and increase vitality and stamina. (Quoted from GemSelect.com.)
That's a great description of the benefits and joys which Devotional Sex brings!

When the ring can be worn:
The ring can be worn by both those in a relationship and singles:
In a relationship when doing Devotional Sex:
For wearing the ring to be meaningful the main time it is worn is when you are both practicing Devotional Sex.
So when you start a Season or a Stretch
of Devotional Sex you and/or your partner put the ring on, and when the
Devotional Sex ends and and you stop being a Princess or a Knight the
ring is taken off.
Thus putting on the ring is a nice way of representing the commitments
of your role, and taking the ring off is symbolic that things have gone
back to normal.
Some couples may like to talk about
wearing the ring as their way of talking about starting a Season or
Stretch of Devotional Sex.
For example, she might say "Would you like to put the ring on tonight?"
Those Living Devotional Sex can wear a Devotee ring all of the time.
A Pledged Knight
Another time the ring can be worn is when he is a Pledged Knight.
This is when his partner doesn't want to practice Devotional Sex all of
the time and he has pledged to start being her Knight whenever she
wishes and to stay her Knight until she wishes to go back to normal.
When the couple are not doing Devotional Sex his wearing the ring
represents this pledge. So a Pledged Knight can wear the ring all of
the time (even though he is not always an active Knight).
Singles:
A single person can wear the
ring if they have pledged to themselves that when they get the
opportunity to be intimate with someone they will apply the principles
of Devotional Sex to what they do.
Thus for dating they commit to do Devotional Dating and if being intimate with a friend to be Devotional Friends.
Part of being a pledged single is being brave enough to tell a
potential partner about Devotional Sex so that they know what you do
and, if they are willing to try this with you, they are then able to
enjoy the experience.
Starting to wear the ring
It is up to each couple if both or either will wear a Devotee ring, and if they do when they will start to do this.
It works best if the you pick a key moment to first wear the ring.
As mentioned above, a couple can start to use a Devotee Ring when they
start to enjoy Seasons of Devotional Sex - with the ring put on at the
beginning of the Season and taken off at the end.
Another appropriate time for him to wear a Devotee Ring for the first
time is when he pledges to be her Knight whenever she wishes.
And a couple could start wearing a Devotee Ring when the couple decide to start Living Devotional Sex.
It can work well for him to start always wearing the ring when he
pledges to be her Knight whenever his partner wishes, and for her to
start wearing a Devotee ring when she decides that they will start to
Live Devotional Sex and so she will always be his Princess.
If you buy a Devotee Ring to indicate when you are doing a Season of
Devotional Sex, then this ring is likely to be fairly cheap (as you are
just exploring Devotional Sex). So if you move up a step ie to him
becoming a Pledged Knight or going from him being a Pledged Knight to
Living Devotional Sex, this can be marked by buying a nicer more
expensive ring.
It's up to each couple to decide what works best for them.
Ceremonies
Committing to do Devotional Sex can feel like a big step - especially when the commitment is long term.
So when he becomes a Pledged Knight, or a couple commit to do a Stretch
of Devotional Sex for a month or longer, or to start to Live Devotional
Sex, the couple may find it meaningful to create a little ceremony to
mark the occasion, and one or both putting on the Devotee Ring can be a
key part of this.
Another time a ceremony may feel meaningful is when a couple who are
Devotional Dating (he never ejaculates when with her) agree to move to
Devotional Relationship (he only ever ejaculates when with her and only
when she decides he can).
For example, going out for a
special romantic dinner, putting the ring or rings onto the table, then
confirming that you both wish to make the commitment, and then putting
the ring(s) on makes it all feel special.
And as with a wedding, you may like the idea of it being your partner who puts your ring on.
Recommitting to Living Devotional Sex
I recommend that the longest commitment a couple make is to practice Devotional Sex for one year.
So each year a couple who Live Devotional Sex can have a ceremony wear
they take off their ring(s), reconfirm that they both wish to continue
to live this way for another year and then put the ring(s) back on.
Though most couples will do this in
private, if you have a friend or friends who know about your Devotee
lifestyle, it can feel even more special to make this re-commitment
with others present who know how special this is for you both.
Meeting someone wearing a Devotee Ring
If you meet someone wearing a Devotee Ring:
- It might be just a
coincidence that they are wearing the right type of ring on the correct
finger. It is possible that the ring wearer has never heard of
Devotional Sex!
- Even if they are a Devotee they may not want to talk about it or even just make small talk with you.
So please respect the other person's right to privacy.
If you are wearing a Devotee Ring, and you meet someone wearing what
might be a Devotee Ring, and you wish to talk with them, you could
start by mentioning that you are wearing a similar ring.
And if you are not wearing a Devotee Ring you could say something that
mentioned the words 'Princess' or 'Knight', and then see where the
conversation goes.
A different ring or a different finger
It may be difficult to find a ring
which fits the little finger. Especially for women, most rings in the
shops may be too big. Many jewelers will resize a ring. But, especially
when you are just starting Devotional Sex, you may prefer to avoid this
extra expense.
If you can't find a suitable ring which is small enough to fit your
little finger, you can instead wear a bigger ring on the finger which
is next to your thumb.
Of course it is also up to you what type of ring you use to represent your commitment to Devotional Sex.
My main reason for recommending that everyone wear the same type of
ring is for the fun of one day seeing another couple where one or both
are wearing a Devotee Ring and thus knowing that they too are enjoying
the many joys of Devotional Sex.
