As you may already know, its illegal ( in the UK ) to have a piercing for sexual reasons, but the same piercing is legal for cosmetic or religious reasons. So you will just have to console yourself in knowing that this very PRETTY and highly SPIRITUAL piercing unfortunately increases your orgasm by around four times, so I'm sorry about that......

Reportedly named after Queen Victoria's husband Prince Albert, who was supposed to have had one. In the Victorian era this piercing was called a dressing ring, and would be installed by a haberdashery (purveyor of small articles of dress). It was used to tie the penis to the leg to stop "unsightly bulges" in the gents trousers. Remember we are talking about a period in time where to display ones ankles was considered unthinkable. Queen Victoria is purported to have said this about his piercing - " It keeps his member smelling sweet ". She was referring to the ring keeping his foreskin back under the corona ( ridge ) of the penis and stopping the build up smegma. I would presume that the ring was of a large size to stop the foreskin returning to its natural state. The rings these days do not inhibit the foreskin, unless of course you have stretched the piercing to a phenomenal size.
