Right.

vi·car·i·ous [vahy-kair-ee-uhs, vi-]
adjective
1.
performed, exercised, received, or suffered in place of another: vicarious punishment.
2.
taking the place of another person or thing; acting or serving as a substitute.
3.
felt or enjoyed through imagined participation in the experience of others: a vicarious thrill.
4.
Physiology . noting or pertaining to a situation in which one organ performs part of the functions normally performed by another.

Exactly, it's a sympathetic or empathetic reaction, which is why porn works in the first place. We perceive it as being us who is in the situation, also the same reason say when you see someone fall, you instantly feel bad, or some of us laugh, because our brain instantly places us in their situation. When someone feels pleasure it does the same. The whole thing of men's interest in large penises in porn is simply that reaction that we are the ones giving that woman said pleasure, and since we place ourselves as the male star a larger penis is preferable. When it comes to solo male videos being watched by a male though then that is a whole different thing. One of the reasons why straight males are attracted to transsexuals is also because of that empathy response, we know the pleasure they are feeling because we have the same equipment while at the same time it's the visage of a female, confuses our brains that way.

If straight guys didn't enjoy looking at cocks, all straight porn would be lesbian porn and solo scenes.

Doesn't mean we want to suck them or have them jammed up our asses, but if we didn't like seeing them on screen, they wouldn't be on the screen.

Makes sense.

Its true. Guys look at my boobs but women honestly look more. I've had more "elevator eyes" from women then men!!

But yes, I think it's absolutely possible to be a 100% straight guy and find a big dick fascinating or interesting to check out.

This. Lots of elevator eyes, mostly from men.

It's about 2 things: comparison & just simple respect/admiration for the human body.

I mean, if a guy is into working out and sees another guy with chiseled pecs and huge biceps, he's gonna think, "Dang, that's impressive. Good on him. I want to look like that one day," which is totally different sentiment than, "Oh, I want him to hold me in his big, strong arms."

Whether it's a dick, a pair of boobs, a butt, shoulders or calf muscles, an impressive specimen of anything is still going to be impressive, regardless of who you are or how your sexuality leans. In the case of things that aren't particularly impressive, the curiosity is still there because, well, you don't know until you look.

I agree with all this but think there is more to it than just that. It is a competitive man thing for several reasons.

My dad has a good friend who is into old muscle cars, the first thing he wants to do when he sees one is look under the hood.
I think it is a lot like that for many guys. I want to know what my competition is like in more areas than just on the mat. It is more than just who can show off a bit and get the hottest chic n school. I want to know that if by some chance I get beat on the mat or on the field can I feel confident enough to strut right up beside him in the locker room showers, smack his ass or even his shoulders and say good match or good game and know when he looks over I will be competitive in that aspect.
I also think there is something athletic in nature about our dick and balls. when I started playing baseball the first thing my dad did was take me out and make me buy a cup and jockstrap to protect my goods as he said. This was before buying a helmet, mouthpiece or anything. It didn't matter if I was going to play outfield, pitch, catch, short stop or third base I knew to wear my cup and protect the part of me that my body would rely on to develop not only confidence but the muscle and stamina to become the elite athlete I wanted to be.
When me and 2 of my best friends growing up decided in 7th grade we wanted to join the freestyle wrestling club, my dad again took all of us to the store to buys jockstraps, he also told us the he would insist we shower after our practices and matches and ask if we understood that the uniform we would be wearing would not be real friendly to our somewhat uncontrollable adolescent dicks and that our friends and classmates would pretty much be able to follow our development if they chose to attend the matches.

Much like the engine in a muscle car is the key to how much fun the owner will have with it. Our dicks and balls are the plug in to the best of being a guy. And it can become sexual in ways other than wanting another guys dick up your ass or anything like that.
Ever been in the showers when one of the guys gets a boner, just wondering what charged his blood flow is enough to charge your own sometimes. My dad told me about a guy in his pe class who purposely got a hard on just to see how many other would follow suit. In the thousands of open showers I've taken I have been on both sides of that situation (not on purpose) and have had it happen to me.
My roommate brings a chic back and starts banging her, just hearing him moan and breath hard and knowing the pleasure his dick is bringing him can get me pretty worked up.
Many of our private team discussions, especially when younger centered around those same parts of our body--our dick and our nuts--how do you position it when wearing a singlet? do you worry more about comfort or how it looks? how long before a match do you try to jack off so it doesn't affect performance but limits your chances of getting a badly timed boner? No other part of our body is worried about among athletes more than these 2 are.
In the realm of male athletes I have seen short ones, tall ones, fat ones, skinny ones, ones missing an arm, leg, foot, hand, ear etc, but I have never seen a male athlete without a dick and at least one nut.

Ok, sorry again for the long-windedness.

While certainly for you that may be an aspect to it, I don't think this is universal.

I rarely see other men as competition, and when I do, it's not about dick size / shape.

The only time I have anything which even approaches curiosity is if a woman I'm with brings it up as a subject and starts talking about it (for whatever reason most of the women I've dated are chatterboxes about size)

There is a new book out which appears to be a serious study on sexual interest and uses millions of Internet interactions as its database.

One finding from the author is: "We know from the numbers there's an overwhelming interest among heterosexual men to look at penises -- the numbers are just enormous,"

Weird. Growing up with three brothers and a dad that used to walk around the house in just his underwear most of the time. I really don't see what all the fuss is about. Yes me and my brothers would compare cocks and talk about what made us hard. No big deal. I spent four years in a boarding school and nine years in the military. Same thing I would always find myself with guys that were comfortable with showing and comparing their cocks. So I don't see anything wrong with straight guys checking out other guys dicks. Remember the Greeks? Oh and don't think that my dad was a perv, far from it. The laughs we would have when he answered the door when the Jehovah witnesses rang our doorbell, priceless.

Speaking of the Greeks, in ancient Rome and Greece, hard cocks were so admired that huge phalli carved from wood or stone often adorned the entrances and (what we would comparatively consider to be the) living rooms of the homes of families who could afford them.

Seeing as how both civilizations managed to successfully procreate over the course of several centuries, I think it's pretty safe to say that men can be avid admirers of cock without it posing any threat to their love of the ladies.

Personally, I think a lot of straight men's fascination with cocks has to do with the mystique of procreation. The miracle of a single spermatozoon and ovum uniting to create another human being naturally leads to a fascination with the mechanics of how that comes about. That, and the taboo aspect of an erection that Reddhott has already mentioned.

I know that for the first half of my adult life I had absolutely no interest in any kind of sexual contact with another man. Yet the sight of big, throbbing boners was always a highly arousing aspect of straight porn for me. Similarly (and even further removed from my own sexual interests) the sight of a big, erect penis on a horse, bull, or even a dog always fascinated me. And the sight of big, bulbous, hanging balls on a proud bull strutting his stuff on pasture would always bring a tingle to my own groin, but I never had a desire to touch them!

And, as others in this thread have pointed out, empathy certainly plays a role as well. Knowing what carnal pleasures we get from the feelings and sensations of our own penises naturally leads to pondering the same sensations being experienced by others.

The world is full of cocks, and they're all wonderful!

I've been doing penis exercises for over a year and have grown over an inch. i think a lot of people that do PE are straight but are obsessed with their size so their curious to how they measure up with everyone else

Although I've tried the odd bisexual act in a mfm with my lady, I definitely consider myself straight. But I have no problem admitting (on here, at least.. hah!) that I get turned on by big cocks, specifically a girl's reaction to seeong them. I'm not at all small so it's not purely a jealousy thing, but i can't think of many more things that genuinely personify sexuality and virility. Plus, to be honest, I just like the way they look. No shame in my game

Comparing sizes is not a gay thing at all, even if makes your dick cum to know you're larger.

Most men do get turned on by the sight of a big dicks. Why do men have big dicks in porn? For the ladies? I don't think so. Men like to see giant dildos, too. They're just hot to look at. Men like dicks....PERIOD (they like their own, too!).

Every male has some degree of same-sex attraction (perhaps the rare dude, or some transsexual lesbian may not LOL). If you're male, and you enjoy your male body and masculinity, you can easily get aroused by others' male body and masculinity (spirit of sexual competition, jealously, etc. ; though, it's different than the kind of sexual attraction felt towards women). However, if you want a romantic relationship with another man, then bi or gay may make for a more fitting label. But I allow each to define himself as he wishes. Maybe someone is a gay relationship for reasons other than purely sexual?

Let me give you a little history lesson honey. Romans did admire large penises but the Greeks preferred them small.

"In Ancient Greece and various vassals of the Greek city states an uncircumcised, small penis was seen as a sign of nobility and cultural superiority, whereas a penis of a bigger size was regarded as vulgar and inappropriate, mostly associated with barbarian culture (this may have been because many barbarians surrounding Greece whom had raided and warred with Greece had demonstrated their penis worship and such practices were therefore a sign of barbarism and cultural vacuum in the eyes of the Greeks)."

I think the bigger question is what's the thing with all these types of threads and everyone being so concerned about what everything means to someone else? Not picking on this thread, just these types of threads in general since there's 238958 of them. Sexuality isn't something that is black and white (unless we are talking interracial porn of course). There isn't one answer, everyone is different. It could be denial, exploration, taboo, empathy, or just plain not giving a crap about putting sexual preference in a box. I don't think there's one meta answer that it seems are often being sought in these type of threads, or vice versa a conspiracy that every dude who looks at cocks is secretly in the closet. Like Daisy said, when women look at another woman's body no one is psychoanalyzing the motives. But rejoice women, at least there is finally a double standard that applies to men instead of women.

Now back to your regularly scheduled masturbation.
