nude male bonding

[Notaes]

Hey Levi, it's a great article: the wiki one. I always thought that's why some guys always head to the closet toilets versus the urinals. Interestingly also: would be more discussion in the article on what leads to this neurosis. My hunch is poor sexual education secondary to religio-cultural influence.

I know many men who grew up with the understanding that erections were ONLY normal when looking at the person that was your wife...or whom you wanted to be your wife. These guys were usually an only-child or grew up in homes with severely enforced modesty issues...usually, but not always, secondary to Fundamentalist religious understanding.

What the army did was breakdown this misunderstanding and show that everybody wakes up with an erection, gets a "piss-hard", etc.

Also, because of the competitive nature of many males: once they see someone hugely hung in the showers -- they do not want to be near him at the urinal, for fear of being seen as little or inferior.

Also, the erection problem: if guys are socialized that erections are normal only when looking at women, then popping a piss-hard at the urinal could, secondary to poor education, lead them to think that somebody might think they were gay if caught with even an autonomic erection.

Thanks for the article,

Bud

I went for my yearly Urology exam today and my doctor works at a teaching hospital. A young resident came in and started talking to me about my erections. How are your erections? I ask what do you mean? He said on a scale of 1-10 how good are your erections? I told him about a 10. I told him I had recently lost quite a few pounds and was doin some cardio exercising every day. He said isn't t amazing what a little exercise will do for your erections? I told him yes I had already noticed a difference. I explained to him that got a hard erection many time during the day now for no reason. He told me that it was natural function of the body keeping my penis healthy. He about our erections as a man and how much fun it was to our cocks to get hard and how we have no control over our erections. He talked so free and uninhibited about our cocks and erections. I started to think shit this guy and I could really become good buddies. I kept waiting for him to ask me to drop my pants for a digital exam but he never did. I never met a guy that enjoyed talking about erections so much it almost caused me to have a fucking erection. He told me that Cialis was going to become generic next December which was great news. A great Urology visit. I'm sure this young man will become a great Urologist some day. He was good looking and I bet He could really get into talking about fucking, eating pussy and using our cocks for what we were created to do as men. He loved talking about cocks and erections.

Amen I would love to get naked and drink some beer

I wish I had some close buddies I could hang out with each other nude and be 100 % cool about it. Just enjoy each others company and not feel awkward about it.

I can relate to that as well.

Yes, I did. I am from Georgia but went to college at Tenn. So, I really was torn. Why did I go to UT? My sister was at UGA. I couldn't go there.

Did you go to UT?

It's too bad today's gyms now have curtained shower cubicles. A new addition to a YMCA in Tulsa has double curtained cubicles. A small outer area has a curtain as I guess a drying off area. Behind that area is another curtained area that has the shower cubicle. Two curtains for a single shower? Really? Has the open shower gone the way of the Dodo bird? Unbelievable.

My gym - two shower curtains too

I'm curious as to how American men respond when they're confronted with Europe's lack of a hangup about nudity. I'm thinking of locker rooms, pools, beaches, etc. Any comments or interesting stories from across the pond?

I just took a trip to Iceland, where there are no nude beaches, but lots of hot springs, where you're required to shower nude before getting in. I went to the Blue Lagoon on a bus straight from the airport, so I decided to just jump in and went nude in the changing room--to the shower and back for the swim trunks--but most of the others (being mostly American) didn't; some even broke the clearly posted rules and showered in their swim shorts.

There was one guy in my changing area that apparently wasn't embarrassed to be naked while getting stuff in and out of the locker; he was Japanese.

I can't speak for other Americans, but I enjoy nudity myself and participate anywhere that it's appropriate. The only thing that took a bit of adjustment was female cleaning staff in the locker room. The first time this happened I was walking through the locker room naked and didn't have a towel with me to cover my dick, so quickly turned away. I soon adjusted and realized they see lots of dicks as part of their job and that it's easier for everyone to just be comfortable with it.

That's one of the perks of their job.

I'd love some male nude bonding in my life...

 

[Uncutsouthernboy]

Let me know if the pussy replies.

Nope, no reply.

Yeah the Blue Lagoon being so touristy is a bit of an anomaly in terms of people following the traditional Icelandic rules (there's not all that much nudity there). Unlike the Blue Lagoon however municipal pools in Iceland take their hygiene rules super seriously so everybody was naked in the locker room and showers and it was no big deal (it seems a lot easier being naked when everybody else is too). There were a few other tourists there but they followed the rules as well (probably didn'the want to get yelled at! ).

Looks like us after PE. ha First uncut dick I ever saw was after PE. I thought he had something deformed about his dick. hahaha

 

[meningreentights]

This could be a younger version of me and my best friend except for two things. I would be the skinny one but I'd be taller and have a big package. He'd have a smaller one. Wish we could hang out like this. It'd bring back old times, and happy memories. Wish guys in general could still hang out like this with nothing sexual involved.

 

[meningreentights]

Me, brother, and two diff guys in the neighborhood would have done this when we were younger. I've lost touch with the guys, and have no contact with brother. Wish friends still did this stuff. Mentally, nudity makes us all equally vulnerable, and sets us free from competition.

 

[meningreentights]

Maybe he's not as 'straight' as you think he is.

If the air even hits a young man's dick, up goes the flag pole. If he's bouncing around with horseplay or whatever, rock hard. It still happens me, and I past 30..

 

[meningreentights]

I'm the same way which is why I like the barriers between urinals. It is not unusual.

I like barriers because some guys have bad aim. Also, it makes it super obvious when they check you out. It's not like they just happened to randomly glance.

 

[meningreentights]

The photos of the guys wading into rivers and streams seems ideal to me. Just free to enjoy the water, and time with a bud.
