[lbo-talk] erections

[info at pulpculture.org]

Ok, so a debate has come up at the blog. I want to know, to what extent 
were/are your erections in public something you could simply will away or 
avoid. Do you have them involuntarily. both R and Sonshine say that they 
don't always get them b/c they are thinking about sex in a conscious way.

I remember a prof friend of mine telling me that, the more boring and 
routine people's jobs are, the more likely they are to engage in sexual 
fantasy. What that has to do with anything, I'm not sure...

Anyway, someone at the blog, a man, says that he thinks that men who get 
them in public, such as when they're speaking before an audience, could 
avoid doing it.

Me? personally, I think most people are terrified enough about public 
speaking that the last thing anyone wants is something that calls attention 
to themselves in an embarassing fashion. Hence, I suspect no man actually 
_wants_ an erection, unbidden or not, when speaking before an audience.

But what about, say, a 22 year old who has erections while going about his 
daily business. Is it your experience that you have to invite them at that 
age, and that it's a matter of will power?
