In [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=246815) thread, **LorieSmurf** said: > [@](#): > > He won’t let me hold his penis while peeing—I’ve heard it feels funny… My wife used to say, “the first thing I’d do if I were a man is pee standing up.” On one particular occasion, I responded by letting her hold my penis from behind while I took a piss. At first, she held it a little too tightly, so it was hard to get the stream flowing. But she got the hang of it (ha!) and decided it was an over all interesting experience. So, any other Dopers out there who’ve had a similar experience? What happened? ---

You know, there is such a thing as too much togetherness. 'Course, I live in a small place with two little kids who don’t know the meaning of the word “privacy,” so maybe I’m not the best person to ask. ---

I don’t know if I could hold my SO’s penis while he urinated. _I’d_ feel funny… ---

Yep, that’s the dividing line for too much togetherness, all right. ---

I can’t believe this may be my only post today and I’m sharing my “penis holding” story! (See…we think we’re alone in the things we do - - and then we find someone else who has done it too.) Okay, so the BF and I were at his house and about to leave…he made a quick “pit stop”. He left the door open and as I was standing there waiting, I said “hey, I wanna hold it while you do that” (what possessed me, I don’t know!). He said okay, so I proceeded…being the silly girl I am sometimes, I starting moving his penis making the stream go round and round the bowl…he told me to stop it because he couldn’t concentrate. I couldn’t help it, I thought it was funny. He did not. He took the matter back into his own hand and I had to stand and wait once again. Eh, it was fun while it lasted. I wonder why some men can’t concentrate while someone else lends a “helping hand”? Don’t guys sometimes, or maybe when they were little boys, “play” while peeing? (Does that sound weird? lol.)

Let’s escalate (although most of the snow is gone now, but maybe next year): Ladies: using your SO’s appendage, write your name in the snow! Or, if you can’t wait til winter, go to the beach! ---

It wouldn’t work for me. I have a shy bladder, and someone else’s presence is a major inhibiting factor. Playing with one’s self during the process? Nah. The processes are mutually exclusive- in my experience- and you have to wait until the peeing is done, or you’re just wasting time. The presence of an attractive member of the opposite sex is worse, as far as the peeing goes… I refuse to discuss watersports, not my thing (obviously.) ---

I had a boyfriend who offered, but the opportunity never came up, so count me in as interested, but never participated, and hoping to find a willing partner someday. 🙂 ---
