It’s really simple for any gentleman to remember…
The lady always comes first.
No ifs, ands or (well, maybe some) but[sup]t[/sup]s.
I second this, pretty much. Erections are not themselves pleasurable. In fact, sometimes they are downright annoying or uncomfortable. Luckily, I don’t get them very often anymore. Many things which give a guy an erection, on the other hand, can be very pleasurable.
Oh dear, Sua, I’m sorry you got blue balls a lot. I honestly don’t know what to say. I could speculate on what the problem was, but I don’t think you want to hear it and it won’t change the past, so I’m going to be quiet and leave you alone.
Oh and to The Devil’s Grandmother, I absolutely ADORE your name. It’s cool as hell! :0) I’ve been meaning to tell you that ever since I saw it.
Erections themselves are not pleasurable for me, but the stimulation and obviously the climax are. When I was a kid, I was terrified to be called on in class. Heaven for bid the teacher made me stand up in class. I was always daydreaming about the little muffin in front of me. Ahhhh, well…could be worse.
As for the OP, I was such a little horndog that I would drool over the thought of pleasuring a girl. In any capacity, for any amount of time. (Damn, my girlfriend’s kinda lucky, huh?)
Erections are not particularly pleasureable without any accompaning stimulation. But, more to the point, having an erection for a long time without an orgasm can be downright painful. And painful in exactly the wrong place.
Sua, did you think that only men get blue balls!?! I know that it is less common in women, but I personally know at least four women, very much including myself, that get them, too. That same sick, heavy, bloated feeling in the bottommost pit of your abdomen. It sucks, and it’s hard to walk.
That said, I would MUCH rather fool around without finishing the job than not fool around at all. What’s wrong with all of you people? So what if your erection is not inherently pleasurable? (Which I’m having some trouble beleiving.) Aren’t you having a good time “petting”? If not, then go watch a movie. Why was frock75 sitting there fantasizing about the girl in front of him if it wasn’t FUN?
Well, I’ll be honest!
I’m 28 years old, married, and I’m totally shocked.
When my husband tells me I’m giving him “instant wood” I thought he was happy about it. Little did I know I was torturing him all this time 
No more stripping in the hallway for him.

True enough, but your jeans aren’t rubbing against the affect body part.
Hell yeah, I’d rather have been in a car parking than sitting in a movie theater. Indeed, I saw WAAAAY too many movies in high school. 
This thread isn’t supposed to be complaining - it’s more awe of how you women wrap us men around your fingers.
BTW, what’s so hard to believe that an erection is not inherently pleasurable? To guys, an erection is simply there. Think of the anatomy of the penis. When a penis is erect, no nerve endings are being stimulated - why would there be pleasure? (Not quite true - usually the nerve endings are being stimulated by the guy’s clothing if he is walking around, but unless the guy’s wearing silk underwear, this isn’t pleasurable. In fact, it is often the opposite.)
As for why frock was fantasizing about the girl in front of him - it wasn’t because it was fun. It was because frock is a guy.
Sua
Hell yes, he’s happy about it - cause he has a pretty good idea what’s going to happen next.
But we wouldn’t want to deprive you of the pleasure you get from that. Tell ya what, I’ll sacrifice myself and replace hubby.
Sua
Well, I think it’s hard to beleive for ME, because I’ve just been raised to believe that an erection signals a guy is excited and ready to have sex and that I am arousing him to the point that he wants to have sex? that’s not good? The female, equivalent, I assume is having a rush of blood to our genital area, and having it get all lubed up and slippery, which, to me, feels good and lets me know that an orgasm is just around the bend. Anticipation baby!
jarbaby
Ye gods, what little women know about this stuff. There is nothing good nor bad about having an erection. For guys a penis is like the sun - it always comes up.
Yes, an erection is obviously a signal of arousal, and yes, the guys you have been with are aroused because of you. But that’s not the whole story.
Guys, back me up. How many times in the past year, hell, the past week, have you suddenly noticed that you have a hard-on for no particular reason. No visual stimuli, no sexual thoughts running through your mind. Just some wood.
Fortunately, this happens less and less as you get older, so you less often have embarrasing social situations, but it is simply part of the male condition.
I can see it being different for a woman. Y’all got natural lubrication, and that’s gotta feel good. But for men, the pleasure in an erection comes from either actual stimulation or anticipation of what is soon going to happen to the erection.
Sua
Don’t worry Sua. I’m sure plenty of women will rush in to tell me how stupid I am.
lord knows I already regret ever posting to this thread. Nothing like a little ignorance to ruin your day.
jarbaby
Nope, the arousal itself is entirely delicious, sorry to have to dissent (except of course that I’m happy to be able to). Of course, when sustained for a long time and/or after recurring several times, there IS a certain imperative urge to DO SOMETHING about it–but whatever agonies are involved are at worst mixed with lots of intense pleasures. (who need whips? 
)
Well actually, it does.
In regards to boners - I always thought of them as being an itch that needs scratching. The itch itself doesn’t feel that great but the scratching feels wonderful. Not having a penis myself I can’t say how accurate my description is so feel free to correct me guys.
Or just send jpgs.
Dman, Diane, you beat me to it. Haven’t you guys ever noticed where the seam on a tight pair of jeans runs on a woman’s body?
Testify, brother! I’ll admit a little mental imagery is always included, but then again, we’re supposedly thinking of sex every coupla’ minutes, right?
Jarbaby and the others, having a hard-on is. It just is. My take on our side-tracking about it is that, while we men, or boys as the case may be/have been, were begging to diddle your wares, we were left raging against the seams with no contact from y’all. It’s a feeling most like, oh, say frustration, to be terribly aroused and not have any contact or release, but the thing is, we all (okay, most of us anyway) still would have little problem finding ourselves engorged following our dalliances with you (royal you) with no reciprocation as long as we were able to do things that made you feel good.
This is not to be confused with the feelings during sex, by whatever definition you choose. Being touched and stimulated rules, but simply waving around all turgid, well, no pun intended, but it sucks.
And porc, we’ve noticed and it’s called camel-toe.
<d&r>
Well, they don’t have to be that tight. 
I’m surprised anyone is surprised by this (at least anyone older than 13).
And no, it is generally not fun (not bad but not fun either). While it is a reminder of pleasant possibilities most of the time it comes at inopportune moments.

How many guys out there have had to find an excuse to remain sitting for a minute or two till the trouser snake pipes down?
-
How many guys out there have had to ‘adjust’ themselves in public because your little buddy decided to grow in an inconvenient and/or painful direction?
-
How many guys out there have had to take a leak in toilet with your soldier standing at attention?
-
How many guys have had a female friend (truly a friend…no sex at all with her) sit on your lap and then you sprout a woody? Worse…her jealous and BIG husband is standing three feet away?
Nope…most of the time it’s inconvenient as hell because if nothing else all I want to do is go and have it attended to properly (unless, of course, it gets that way precisely because it IS being attended to in which case rock on!).
Diane,
I got this itch…
Can you help?
I asked a male friend once (curiousity is a bitch sometimes) what it felt like to have an erection. He said “it was like walking around with a loaded gun, and you’re just lookin’ for targets.”
