I wonder how many chronic masturbators suffer from this condition?

Persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD) is a newly described disorder that is not yet fully understood or defined. It refers to the experience of persistent feelings of genital arousal (often described as “pelvic tension”) that are not associated with sexual stimulation of any kind, that don’t go away on their own, and that cause the individual pain or distress. … more

I’m 58, and a 26-year-old man I meet with regularly on a professional basis often gets a hard-on when he first sees me or after we’ve been talking for a while. I know young men get frequent spontaneous erections. Should I just be flattered and assume that I am one of the dozen or so women he sees that day that are attractive to him and make him get hard, or do you think it’s more special than that and he really likes/wants me, or is it just a case of spontaneous erections because he’s so young? So, how many times per day DOES a 26-year-old get an erection? Is there a difference in frequency between single and married guys in their 20s? Also, can they tell that they have a hard-on without looking? Sometimes I see guys checking the front of their pants as if to see if something has come up. Can’t they sense it?

RECHARGING? Some scientists wonder if the unconscious erections that occur when a man sleeps might be the bodyÂ?s way of making sure oxygen levels in penile tissue stay high. (istockphoto / August 15, 2008)

Urology clinics have a saying: “Erections make erections.”
In other words, sex is not unlike sports. If you want to be a good tennis player, play lots of tennis; if you want to be a good lover, make lots of love.
This maxim springs more from anecdotal observations than from scientific studies: Men who have erection problems tend not to have much sex, urologists noticed. And those who don’t, have plenty. Then again, anyone with a passing knowledge of the birds and the bees might have guessed as much.
So, which happens first in the use-it-or-lose-it Olympics? In sports as in sex, we like to do what we’re good at doing. Perhaps when some men find that their previous prowess — be it at backhands or erections — isn’t what it used to be, they start sitting out more and more games.

Wanklogger gets a boner in front of the nurse

…. I gingerly got out of bed and move to the chair. The inevitable happened and my cock slipped out of the right leg and shot straight out from me. But the nurse is still fussing with the bandages and stuff, so I might be able to get myself seated and hide the evidence, but no. The nurse turns around and just says “oh”. more at Wank Log: The Hospital

On March 27th, 2008, the US celebrated an important birthday of one of its favorite (legal) drugs. On this date, ten years ago, Viagra was approved for use in the treatment of erectile dysfunction by the Food and Drug Administration, and became available to all the men in the USA who had been suffering from a ‘limp’.

We’ve all been there.

This cautionary tale took place the summer between fifth and sixth grade (again in Bedford, MA). My friends Tom Mulligan, Mike Lehan, Kevin Hartwell and I were upstairs in the bedroom of a fourth friend, Mike McGrath, looking at his older brother’s stash of Playboys. I had never seen one before, and was enjoying it immensely. We were all minding our business, gaping silently, when Mike Lehan, totally out of the blue, calls out "Phil has a boner!" He had no way of knowing this, as the magazine in my lap covered everything up. However, I knew two things: 1) I definitely had a boner and 2) there was no way I was going to admit it. So right away I said "I do not!" knowing that when compelled to remove the magazine, if I was lucky, it would be hidden. "Do too!" Lehan screamed. Not wanting to prolong the inevitable, I pulled the Playboy away, revealing an undeniable pup tent to the right of my zipper. They all laughed their asses off and I did my best to forget about until later that evening, when I’m standing at the plate during our little league game. From third base, Mike McGrath yells "LUMP IN THE LEVI’S!" Everyone who’d already heard about the incident cracked up and everyone who hadn’t soon heard about it. It was a long summer.
