Seeing another guy hard

[223790]

Never heard of an adult locker room before. All locker rooms I've been in were open too all ages so if I guy got hard there would be that possibility and I only brought it up because AG said that people would not get arrested for it. Luckily I don't think getting hard in the locker room is a common occurance

My Y has an adult only locker room for 18+. I prefer it (and pay extra for it every month) because in all honesty, I don't like kids, and I don't want to put up with their bratty behaviour.

You are right that it isn't common. As I mentioned before, over the last 25 years and literally thousands of men I must have showered with by now, I have only seen a full erection twice (loads of chubs though). One of these times was at my university in the locker room open shower, and the other one was at my current Y. They were young (early 20s), so I understand and remember at that age, a dick has a mind of its own. To me, calling a guy out on it is being a dick unless he's doing something to encourage it like masturbating (which I have never seen happen). It would be an over reaction to the extreme to call the police, and I have never heard of a law or one single case where a guy was charged with having an unwanted erection. I have heard of laws and charges being laid regarding lewdness and indecent exposure, but never over "the crime" of having an erection in a locker room. Can you honestly ever recall hearing that a man was charged with having an erection in a locker room? It's beyond ludicrous. Please just show me one link from a reputable news organization in Canada that this has ever happened here.

Any guy who has never gotten an unwanted erection really needs to see a doctor. Erections are signs of a healthy well functioning penis. Making a big deal out of it reinforces to young guys that erections are wrong, and therefore they should avoid the possibility of it happening by not ever getting naked around other guys. I will never understand the younger generation that posts pictures of their cocks all over the internet for millions to see, download, print out, and share, but freaks out at the sight of another naked guy in a locker room who may or may not be sporting wood. It's ridiculous.

"Chrysippus, post:
I suggest that if you are upset by seeing a boner in a shower or locker room, you make an appointment with a therapist because you have issues

Agreed. Every guy has had one before, and they don't always mean sexual desire. Guys who make a big deal out of this are expressing their own insecurities.

-or, if you are troubled by boners/nakedness in such venues, feel free to do what a Jesuit friend of mine has advised to members of his flock, that is to practice 'modesty of the eyes'--just don't look. It's like communal bathing in Japan, people give each other privacy by staying in their own interior space.

Agreed again. As mom always said, it's not polite to stare. Glances are OK, but staring is creepy and rude.

I do know that some men use facilities like gym saunas to troll for sex with a hard on or a semi, but they are usually swiftly dealt with by facilities management if they're reported or discovered. I just 'interiorize' if I see that, or use body language like turning away in the opposite direction to evince disapproval.

I agree again. I get checked out plenty, and have been followed around by trolls. It's totally inappropriate in a mainstream gym. It's not a bathhouse. I have done the same as you and registered my disgust at their behaviour with my body language. They get the message pretty quickly.

I took my sons to the gym where there were communal showers, figuring that what they saw there was part of joining the community of men. I wanted them to be comfortable with themselves and around others. I know they saw men looking at one another, and I wanted them to know that it's perfectly OK to do so. None of them ever said anything about it (at least to me--some things you only discuss with peers, I guess).

Good for you man. You are setting a positive example for them by teaching them at an early age to not be ashamed of their bodies. They won't grow up thinking that porn star cocks are the norm, and they won't engage in any ridiculous and unmanly behaviour such as towel dancing, showering in their shorts, or changing in a toilet stall (which is just plain gross).

@AG08 never knew or heard of any place offering a change room for 18+ sound like that would just take up unnecessary space and expense. Learned something new.

Not saying I know of someone calling the cops I'm saying hypothetically if a guy was hard and another guy had his kids in the change room and reported the guy with the hard on that guy would get reprimanded in some way.

Any guy who has never gotten an unwanted erection really needs to see a doctor.

I'm an early 20s guy and I don't get unwanted erections and I'm perfectly healthy. I mean I've chubbed up a little when taking to some girls I like but that early happened and I wouldn't really call that unwanted. If a guy get fully hard unintentionally I think they are the ones who should see a dr. Or at least do porn

 

[MisterVIP]

Meh...who gives a fuck. Everyone in the locker room has a cock. Cocks have minds of their own. They get hard for no reason. As long as I'm not experiencing any harassment from someone with a hard on, I don't give a shit.

I agree with this.

I'm not in a locker room or shower to look, gawk, talk. Shit happens. As long as everyone stays in their zone, who cares?

Seriously? You think that's normal and that getting spontaneous erections isn't? You are the first guy I have ever heard say this. When I was in my fraternity, my brothers and I used to talk about this a lot. It's normal for guys get random boners. I'm not saying this to insult you, I'm saying this because it could result in bigger problems for you down the road. If you don't believe me, ask your doctor, or just Google it. Do you get examined every year by your doctor? I get a physical every year and one of things my doctor and I discuss is erection frequency. Having a male doctor, I feel more comfortable discussing it with him than a female doctor. I don't feel embarrassed doing this because it's my health, which as you get older, you realize is the most important and valuable thing you have. He checks my testicles and penis and does a prostrate exam to ensure everything is functioning as it should.

When you are young, you take your health for granted, but believe me, when it starts going to shit you realize how important and fragile it really is. Please get checked by your doctor if you haven't done so yet.

 

[Hatt_101]

Yes I do get checked out every year way too young for the prostrate exam though thats not until 40. Trust me I'm in more than good health. Id have to be to be a varsity athlete. But erections out of no where just don't happen to me in fact lpsg is the only place I've heard of it happening the way some people here describe. It's like some guys here have zero control over their body.

I also don't get morning wood and never had a wet dream before. But as you can see in my pictures there's nothing wrong with my penis health. Never had trouble getting hard and I have a high sex drive that is the same if not higher than when I was a teenager. But random erections just do not happen to me

Do you ever talk about this with your friends like I used to with my buddies and fraternity brothers? The reason I ask is because you said that LPSG is the only place you have heard of this when it's actually quite normal and completely uncontrollable. My buddies and I used to joke around all of the time about having random boners and morning wood. I used to wake up with one almost every morning when I was a teenager and well into my 20s (I still wake up with one occasionally at 47 years old and am glad for it - I've never had to use Viagra once in my life). The fact that you don't get random erections certainly explains why you can't see that for a majority of guys it's not preventable. As I have gotten older, I have gained more control, but when I was your age and random boners were the most common, I could no more control them than I could bend a spoon in half with my mind.

I can see that you are in good shape, but it doesn't necessarily mean that you are in more than good health. I have heard of many varsity athletes collapsing suddenly. I say this out of concern only. Talk about it to your doctor to make sure there is nothing going on under the surface that could cause problems for you later on. It's up to you as it's your health, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I would be concerned if something wasn't happening with me that was happening to a majority of other guys. Good luck!

@AG08 no we don't talk about that kind of stuff often but I remember being a teenager since it wasn't that long ago and I can't say I really knew any guy with that problems.

Trust me I'm in excellent health I'm a kinesiology major(study of the human body in movement) at my university and before that I graduated from a college with a degree in fitness and health plus I am also an ACSM certified personal trainer. Since I live at home with my mom being a nurse Who insists I get checked up all the time when I say I'm in great health you can take it to the bank.

I'm sure I'm not the only guy that doesn't or didn't get random erections. And I know I'm not the only guy that has never gotten morning wood some other guys here have said they didn't either but it looks like guys like me are in the minority on lpsg. (Lool that last line rhymed)

I will suggest that you are a member of a very, very, small minority - especially in regards to morning wood. And, not just among LPSG members, but among mankind the world over.

This started off as a question, posted to the Ask A Straight Man thread. When you ask a question from various persons, it is expected that the replies that come back will be different and from different points of views.

So far we have had a lot of answers, from I have never seen this in the locker room, as long as he was not a perv, I would ignore it and yes a few it does not bother me at all. So all well and good, great open dialog. My only comment is that many of the previous replies are coming from members who are not straight, not even 99%. This is indicated by their own profiles showing 10%, 20% and even 50% male sexual preferences.

We are all here to learn from each other and have fun; but lets keep the answers fair and true to form.

@hzs3fg may be in the minority but at least I'm not the only one.

Sometimes i got the feeling these non 100% straight guys try to manoeuvre the dialogue in a certain direction. Like some 100% straight guys can not accept lesbians not hooking up to guys, some not 100% straight guys can not accept 100% straight guys not hooking up to them. And they keep on looking for ways to get their foot between the door.

Good to hear about your health. But have you ever brought up with your doctor the specific absence of any experience of morning erections? I don't mean to pry, of course. But nocturnal autonomic erections and tumescence are universal in men without erectile dysfunction; it is a physiological phenomenon over which we do not have "control". Perhaps you may never have *observed* morning wood, but I would think it extremely unlikely that you have not had erections (four or five times) during sleep and especially during the REM phases. If you (or your girlfirend/s) have never observed an erection during nocturnal somnolence, for example, or morning wood, I think these are issues you should raise with your doctor.

Hey GE 1972 A lot of Straight men do secretly hope and pray that Lesbians do make exception for guys now and again . I get your point of view

A valid response Curt and i respect your answer. However, it is possible your answer is even remotely / slightly biased ? Did you notice where you were posting to ?

My only comment is that many of the previous replies are coming from members who are not straight, not even 99%. This is indicated by their own profiles showing 10%, 20% and even 50% male sexual preferences or more

I still stand by my post straight bi gay our bodies have their things that they do. It should not matter the orentation of a person all of our bodies work the same the adrenaline rushes after a workout you are pumped up your skin gets flush or red your sweating and some may get erections we all get them. Example you and youe buddies are on a trip share a hotel room you wske up with morning wood it does not mean you want to pork your buddie in the next bed NO It is just a normal body function we all get from time to time you just get up and take a pee and carry on normal body function
