Are Boners Contagious?
Been randomly speaking about this subject the last few days and seems to be an interest in discussion, so here it is. Do you think erections are contagious like a yawn? Im not talking about self pleasure hard ons. Im talking about say at a beach or nudist venue and you are doing your thing and you look over and theres a semi or erect penis, and yours starts to grow hands free. Ill be the first to say that happens to me all the time; like a yawn soon I am pointing straight out or up. What are your thoughts and / or experiences if its happened to you. Also those naysayers who say oh no not me ever, why do you think that is?
I BELIEVE AS A PHYSICIAN NUDIST THAT WHEN MEN ARE TOGETHER AND RELAXED AND ONE OF THEM GETS A HARD ON IT DOES EFFECT THE OTHER MEN AND THEY BEGIN TO GET HARD ALSO! WHY, I AM NOT CERTAIN, PERHAPS IT IS A WAY TO COMPETE WITH OTHER MALES ERECTIONS OR NOT TO HAVE THEM THINK YOU CANNOT GET A HARD ON! I TRULY DO NOT NOW THE ANSWER TO THAT, BUT I KNOW WHEN I HAVE BEE NUDE AROUND OTHER NUDIST GUYS AND SOME GET A BONER I DO TOO!
HICKGUY M.D.
they are contagious, if I see another man get erect, I will usually get erect also, it's not always sexual it's the excitement of seeing someone feel comfortable enough to be free to allow themselves to be authentic like that, it's an appreciation of another man's manhood and letting them appreciate yours. If anything transpires beyond that, then that's different but also erections are normal and could just be the body's response to the environment, the feeling or the visual stimulus around that person. I think they're beautiful and we really need to not get hung up about it. It's part of being a man.
I do feel they are contagious. I have witnessed one male getting hard and others follow suit. It is NOT SEXUAL in nature and males get hard, so be it. I was taught it is not being hard that is sexual, but what is done with it that is sexual. If left alone, they deflate on their own, just like getting hard on their own. I know from personal experience when alone or with others (male and female) I have gotten semi and fully hard for no reason at all, or no reason I can come up with. It has happened at nude beaches, resorts, parties etc. If the space is anti-hard, then I do my best to hide it, restrain it or I excuse myself from the area. Society has made a hard on sexual, when it is not always the case. I could go on for day on my personal beliefs, but it is just my personal beliefs, thoughts and ideals, which may or not be yours. Ultimately we should respect each other regardless of a hard on or not. Guys get hard nude as well as when clothed...clothes do hide them, but clothes also hide who we are as well.
I teach a Nude Yoga class each week. The class is not sexual in nature in the least. It is very much a standard Yoga class, just without the laundry. About every other class, we will have someone getting an erection in class, and it's usually one of the newbies. I find that this will cause others to get erections as well. I am not sure if it's just everyone's Cialis kicking in at the same time, but again, class just goes on. I figure if we are all comfortable enough to hold a yoga class in the nude, we should also all be comfortable enough to continue on with class with boners.
It is energy period. Let's not overthink it. If you are energy sensitive and healthy you may tap into that energy.
If all the dudes have a low vibe you will also feel that. If you have high sexual energy even as a straight male and someone grows you may grow.
Just like if you have fear or overthinking and need to grow that low energy will disappoint you.
I can see the logic in this, and it has happened to me in a non sexual setting (in any case I'm straight). I was on the WNBR in London, surrounded by many many naked people, about half way the ride stops in a big square and people stand and chat etc. By now I'd been naked for well over an hour and was very relaxed and comfortable with the situation. A guy was stood close by to me chatting with others, the sun came out which felt nice and warm on my body, shortly after that I noticed him slowly start to get semi, then pretty much fully hard, still while chatting. Straight away, to my horror I also started to get hard, the more I tried to think about other things the worse it was and I was soon standing to attention. I didn't look about to see if it happened to anyone else and thankfully it went away almost as quickly as it arrived. No one seemed to care. I think as others have said it was perhaps a reaction to seeing this guy so openly relaxed that his body just did that and something about that triggered a similar response in me.
