OK, i am runnning out of ideas for threads here.
Although the frivoloty continues, and this is sort of related to my other post i just did.

When guys adjust themselves in public, how unattrative is it?

Whether it be a scratch, a quick movement/realign or what have you.

Is it really that bad? I got caught today by a friend and she laughed about it, so i don't know, i just apologised. I try not to do it in public. Although sometimes a quick adjustment is essential, so it's not completely avoidable.

hmmm, as you can see, today i am thinking about dicks and dick issues in public places. Interesting.....

ok i put a random poll up as well. 5 is for hot and 1 for disgusting and so on. Guys probably shouldn't vote either?
Cause i myslef am indifferent, casue i am emapthetic with other guys you may need to adjust sooooo.....


edit: basically i am trying to justify how open i should be when attemtping to do anything in public again. Is it accepted, like maybe someone sneezing or coughing...lol

Well the realignments are sometimes nessicary. The scratching you could probably try and do without. It may look unattractive, but it's needed. If something itches you scratch. And if it's big and hard and in your way you move it, right?

I dont know if I should put in a comment, but, since that never stopped me before... I never mind seeing a guy adjust... now scratching big ol turn off....

Sometimes it gets downright painful if you don't make an adjustment. I just try to be discreet, but sometimes you just gotta reach down and move the thing.

I voted 3 because well.... I don't really care one way or another. I don't think "Oh boy he must have some sort impressive package there!" when a guy is adjusting. If I catch a friend I usually say something like "Hey you need help with that thing?"

Yes, I try to balance between being comfortable and just decorum, but there are just times you have to adjust. There is something about sitting in an airplane in the cold that makes it very uncomfortable. I'm sitting there with 3 to 5 strangers in the same row with me, and I can't turn around or go into another room to do anything about it. I could spend 5 minutes just trying to do it discreetly, but I would rather take 5 seconds to do it right.

/me takes cold shower

heh. I figure it's a natural part of life. Women I know are constantly adjusting their bras, so I adjust my jock. Whatever; it happens. Females don't generally have the whole "giant boner" problem, so they don't have to worry about that. Reciprocally, guys don't have to really worry about SNE (Sudden Nipple Erection)... It all balances out in the end.

I try not to make abig production when I have to adjust, just do it quickly and move on.

Adjusting is needed. It can become quite painful/uncomfortable if you don't.

I voted three... I agree, it's a fact of life, and I've been known to adjust my bra from time to time.... But I've also seen guys do it and put on a production about it, which I consider unnecessary. Why should I get offended when a guy makes himself more comfortable, when I make myself comfortable when I need to?

and if they do we don't want to hear about it!

self-adjustment is a necessary evil, though I wouldn't mind having someone to do it for me.

"hey would you take care of this? thanks.... just a little to the left. perfect!"

I would think it is okay as long as the guy doesn't make any sounds, such as: "whew" or "oh maaan" or "yank."

You gotta try to do it through your pockets, though.

Jam

hahaha... would that make i t look like your playing with yourself.. i think thats a bad idea

Shadowman

Im a guy, and I do a lot of adjusting. But I see women all the time, adjusting their breasts. If they can do it, so can I :-)

The adjustment is tolerable, the adjustment with the scratch is not! Ugh. It makes you think there's something crawling around down there. Doing it when your crotch is eyelevel to a person sitting down in front of you is beyond rude... We all have to do the old scratch every now and then, but women usually try to do it under their desks, table cloths, bathrooms - privacy is key here... Avoids any offending maneuvers!

women adjust their bras all the time- i'm not saying there is no difference in a man-sack and breasts, i'm saying it's a natural thing we all have to do, so if it bothers someone, i tell them to grow up.

I adjust and think nothing of it. I mean, I'm not gonna sit on my balls for an hour because someone might get offended by me moving them to a more comfortable spot. I scratch in public aswell (not long lingering scratches, but one or two little ones to get the job done), but hey, thats just me I guess.

On another note: In highschool there was a guy that sat next to me in Pre-Cal. And every now and then he'd be like "Oh damn, I need to scratch my balls." Then he'd reach into his pants, into his boxers, and scratch. And all the while I had to sit there and hear *scratcha scratch* "OH Yeah, there we go". It was gross indeed (not to mention he ate a Tiger Muffin (like an egg mcmuffin) about 5 minutes after, w/o washing his hands), but hey, he was comfortable with it and you gotta do what you gotta do.

I will adjust if necessary.

I don't see what the big deal it is to some people...One girl i know told me it's a bad habit

It depends on the guy and the way in which he does it. It can be sexy. It can be gross.

Either way, I hardly ever miss it. One of my friend's calls it Balldar. He says the alertness, or at least my verbosity, increases with my need to get laid.

Hurr.

the best is trying to use the no hands method and doing the funky little mini-split to jar your boys loose!! Good time and it's also fun trying to explain to people why you just busted out a little disco move!!

actual

If I hadn't already decided not to take any of this seriously, I probably would have died snickering at that one. The thing is, I think I've actually seen some guy try that, heh.

Personally I wear khakis and boxers so I have little to worry about, for the most part.
