One type of sex toy that men commonly use is a cock ring. A cock ring placed around the base of your cock and balls will constrict the flow of blood out of your cock, while still allowing blood to flow into it. This should alow you to achieve a harder erection, and stay hard longer. A cock ring also tends to make the veins of your cock stand out more, which is a real turn-on for many guys. The skin on your cock head will be more taut, making it more sensitive. A cock ring that goes around the base of your ball sac will bring your balls up and forward -- making them more accessible for playing with them. Men's balls will usually retract to the body when the point of ejaculation nears. Wearing a cock ring that goes around the base of the ball sac will keep your balls from retracting. Because a cock ring will also constrict the urethra -- the tube through which you cum -- you will cum more forcfully, and shoot a greater distance if you cum while wearing a cock ring. These are all positive attributes for many gay men!

There are various types of cock rings. Metal cock rings can be difficult to put on, and even more difficult to take off when your cock is hard and you start feeling any discomfort from the cock ring. Rubber cock rings, while easier to put on and take off because they stretch, have a tendency to be narrow, causing them to to dig into your cock, resulting in pain. Rubber cock rings also tend to pull on your pubic hair when you are putting on or taking off the ring. Leather cock rings can be a good choice. They tend to be wider than rubber cock rings, making them more effective, and they cause less discomfort. They can also usually be easily adjusted for size.
The size of a cock ring is very important. If the cock ring is too big and loose when you are erect, it won't do it's job, and you might as well not bother using it. If the cock ring is too small and tight when you are erect, it will be painful. Rubber cock rings will stretch a bit, and leather cock rings are usually adjustable in size. Check the sizing instructions before buying a cock ring! If you do not know the exact size cock ring that you would use, avoid getting a metal cock ring. You can measure the size for a cock ring by using a fabric tape measure, or a piece of string, and wrapping it around the base of your cock shaft and ball sac when you are erect.

Cock rings are usually put on around the base of your cock AND your ball sac -- not just the base of your cock -- when you are soft (or semi-hard). With solid cock rings (i.e., metal ones), you'll normally have to leave them on until after your cock is soft at the end of your sexual encounter. Cock rings with quick releases (usually leather ones) are best for men who like to remove their cock ring just before cumming.
Some cock rings have ball spreaders, isolating your left ball from your right ball, and stretching the skin of your ball sac so that it is taut and shiny (even if you have hairy balls). This can feel great, and many men also like the look of it. Having your balls separate and spread also places them up against your thighs in a different position than they would normally be, which can feel very stimulating, and be quite erotic.

Once your cock ring is on, you can get hard and engage in the desired sexual activity.
Particularly if you are new to using a cock ring, check that the cock ring isn't too tight as you get hard. If it is, loosen it, or let your erection subside and remove the cock ring.
Some guys like to keep their cock ring on when they cum. Other guys like to remove it just before they cum. If you want to remove it, you'll need to use a cock ring with fasteners that you can undo. Practice undoing the fasteners so that you are able to remove the cock ring quickly, without fumbling.
Some guys like to wear a cock ring while they go about their daily activities. Because a cock ring brings your cock and balls up and out, it can cause a nice bulge through your clothes!
