Oh yeah, and I guess I should actually contribute something meaningful to this thread: DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!!!

Shit I'm 20 and it's still a permanent condition for me. I have no control over my guy and if I'm not careful it's pretty fuckin obvious . If she sat on your lap and noticed it once and kept on doing it my guess is she likes it! My ex was laying her side over my crotch once and just kinda looked at me and said "It's poking me" I said "Sorry" and she said "No it's okay I like it" after that she couldn't keep her hands off it. I need a new girlfriend

i had similar problems with my girlfriend, i just got used to being around her. It still happens when we're alone, but if others are there it just doesnt come up anymore. No pun intended

Same here, 5 years, 1 kid, and every time the wife gets into bed or sits on my lap I get hard. Hell I'd be seriously disapointed if I didn't, and we'd probably be part of that large percentage of people that get divorced somewhere around this point in the marriage. Getting aroused by a mate is about the most natural thing there is, it's a basic part of the human condition =)

mojodragon

Um, if my wife were sitting in my lap, and I wasn't popping a boner, she'd get offended. Seriously, don't worry about it. She should take it as a compliment.

kajagoogoo

It is normal.....I just wish I was normal more often :s

Feeling a guy's hardon is the ultimate compliment. It's even more complimentary if he has one in a situation where you know as a girl he would really rather not have one and he's trying to control it as much as possible.

One of my exes had this same issue. I thought it was cute. Made me feel good about myself

I aways have this problem, my gf finds it incredibly funny and constantly teases me about it. It was worse when i went to her parents for christmas and banged myself on a door.

Hardknock

Why are you worried about this??

Go with the flow.

Go to your local metal shop, and get a Prince Albert. Then buy some twine

I have the same problem. I've been with my girl for about 5 months now. I do have sex with her, but I still have that problem. Everytime I talk to her "he" seems to wake up. I'm glad my girl likes it. =P

When i was 18 years old, I had permanent boner syndrome. Any little bit of excitement, even vibrations sitting on a bus, would make me stir. Don't worry about it, i'd be worried if it didn't work while she sits in your lap. Plus she knows whats she's doing and probably gets turned on knowing that its poking her.

Best way i found of stopping it was to jack off. Not on the bus obviously.

Given, I'm not much older than you, so I can't really speak for time, but it still happens to me whenever there's a slight vibration, movement, etc. in the general vicinity of my crotch... (I never realized how exciting a road trip can be...) Ditto for pretty much any contact with a girl I like. It just happens, no big deal.

In way of "taming the beast" as one of my friends puts it, I generally wear boxer briefs and slightly loose pants. The bb's keep it against my leg, and the pants being slightly loose keeps any growth from being readily apparent.

And for the record, pretty tight jeans can give just as bad a reaction as really loose. Where the loose jeans can tent out, the outline of your penis is extremely apparent when you're hard. I actually got noticed a helluva lot more for that before I figured out how to hide it. (Of course, if you're looking to impress your friends and have considerable size, tight jeans might not be such a bad idea. )

guitardude74

same problem. but i was just thinking, if you're embarrased about your friends noticing it, well how often do you notice one of your friend's boners when they're with THEIR girlfriend? well i can't remember a time when i have, i guess that's because i don't really look at other guy's crotches often so it shouldn't be too much of a worry.

Amnesia620

How flattering and tantilizing to have a guy react when his girl sits on his lap. Let's hope you can trust in your girl that she isn't a blabbermouth...meanwhile, enjoy your little "secret".

Yeah man, just let it fly. Otherwise, I just tuck it up and tighten the belt, if it seems to be in an inappropriate situation. Shit happens.

Bad idea. If she does something really exciting you run the risk of kicking her in the head. And that just kills the mood.

It's a normal thing don't worry about it.. it's a good thing.. if you are worried about it and you notice yourself getting hard.. just say this 3 times (quote from Cruel Intentions II)

i'm 19, so i'm still pretty virile, but here's a trick that's been working for me since i was like 14:

Anxst

Just pay it no attention. I was never ashamed of my woody when I was younger. It just happens, especially around that age.

If you're really worried, practice this at home. Look into a mirror, and without breaking a smile of any kind, look directly into your eyes and say "Yep, pretty big, isn't it. Must be to be so noticeable"

Break that out next time anyone points it out to you in any way.

Or, if you're feeling puckish, go with, 'Don't worry, it's not for you." Then grin a really big shit eating grin.

I'm 34 and have the same problem with my wife. If you really want to do something about it, you could look into some "stiffies underwear"...

TexanAvenger

Awesome find. I think I might order some of those suckers.

CrAzEd

Buy a muzzle.

Seriously, don't worry about it. I get a hard-on just looking at my g/f.

rainheart

well i dont really have anything to contribute to this post except a bill maher quote:
"an erection is always appropriate!"

whenever i get wood.. i make an 'adjustment' and line it up against my belly.. that way its not so visible (at all for that matter) and eventually when its just left standing there and sees that its getting no attention, it gets sad and goes away

oh and obviously you dont make that adjustment on the spot like "hold on i need to put my hands down my pants and recalibrate"

go to the washroom or something

hobo

when i first went out with my girlfriend, it happened to me all the time, and i'd always get really wet with precum too. the second we made any kind of contact, i'd start getting hard, and wet. now, that's still true, but it seems to have intensified. even being near her, just talking can do that to me. its like, my body really wants her, and she likes it, so it's all good.

tres

I remember as a kid this bothered me ALOT!! I used to wear tighty whities to hold the little man down, and boxers on the outside, for "style" aka in the locker room and what not...

LoganSnake

I had exactly the same problem as you do. When I got my first girlfriend at 17, I would get a boner from just hugging, or holding hands while walking down the street. It was pretty embarassing, and many times did she ask why I had to tie my shoes 2-3 times while we walked together holding hands. After got past the "holding hands" stage, the problem gradually went away as I discovered new means of arousal with her. It will pass once you get over the whole "OMG I'm with a girl!" phase.

skinnymofo

i learned to control my woody
if i dont feel like poking a girl while she sleeps next to me i just concentrate hard on telling it to go down and not right now, save it for later. eventually i got too good at it and i had to cencentrate to make it go up ( got too used to being shot down for a while i guess, false hope is the devil)
now i can send him up or make him stay down at will or even keep him standing when it wants to go down. its kind of cool

Dunta

Me and my wife have been married for 5 1/2 years. I still get wood when she sits on my lap. Just something erotic about that to me.

If you fuss at the poor fellow everyone will get all concerned and such and eventually you'll have to haul it out just to show them that everything is ok. It took me a while to realize what all you young folks were talking about. I seem to remember those things - don't worry about it because eventually the problem will simply stop.
