I feel it is a natural way to "introduce yourself" too to others who have any interestand that is the natural intention God-given and designed. Those that get "upset" are usually that way because of their own lack.
LW83 said:No offense John H. but if a male every introduced himself to me like that, I would, at the very least, break his nose.
A hardon isn't giving by god.
"i" would BE quite "offended" IF someboby introduced "THEMSELF" by showing "me" their "hard"-ON! it has nothing "to do" with a lack OF equipement (i don't CONSIDER myself lacking "BTW") its just PLAIN WRONGJohn H. said:Hi Luke,
I learned that early on. It was really stupid to try to "hide" something God gave you. Anyone that has a "problem with it" it is their lack of any maturity that is the problem.

LW83 said:I'm with Stu. it's sexual harrassment.
LW83 said:In this day and age, it is wrong and unacceptable john.
But in all actuality, it's just has wrong as having hard nipples
I suffer from perma-nips as well.
bio-chem said:john boy there is a time and a place because there is a purpose for a hard on. when a guy gets one in public he should adjust and move on. to not accept this as fact shows close-mindedness to preper behavior.
well i don't believe in god so the last part of your post doesn't hold true for me but thats just my opinion.John H. said:Hi Stu,
Just because someone has a hard-on and they approach you as in walk up to you for whatever reason does not mean they are "introducing themselves to you" necessarily. It would depend entirely upon how you BOTH preceive that and welcome - or not - that. His "showing" could be either "his showing" (naturally so) or it could be "an introduction" and a "showing" as well.
If you are somehow "offended" by "his showing" that is your problem. You can not expect nor should you demand that he "hide". If you have a "problem" with a natural hard-on and you see a Man with one you should just walk away. If you are interested you could express that IF you thought the other Man was offering "an invitation". It is entirely between BOTH individuals and of course has to be correctly perceived by BOTH. But a Man having a natural hard-on and someone objecting is like having the wind blow which is completely natural and someone "objecting". You can not change natural things of life and living nor should you.
Men do have an asbolute right to their hard-ons and naturally displayed. If God wanted them to be hidden He would have provided a natural way to do so. Horses have them all the time. So do Men. Naturally.

I can't believe I am doing this after the Doctor's fiasco, but....John H. said:Bio,
WHO "says" there is a "time and a place"? WHO sets themself up to be "judge and jury" on that and by what "authority" - what "power"?
If you or anyone else is somehow "offended" by another Man's hard-on it is YOU that has the "problem" not he. You are not an adult and you are not mature. In fact even a simpleton would not be "offended" because being "offended" is something that is taught and learned.
There are many purposes for hard-ons. One of them is to breathe naturally and to show. Unemcumbered.
Who "says" or has the "right to say" that the OTHER person (with the hard-on) must be the one that "adjusts and moves on"? If you "object" why is that? What are YOU looking for in the first place? If you (meaning anyone here) do not want to see it DO NOT LOOK AT IT. YOU (meaning anyone here) should be the one to "adjust and move on" NOT the Man with a natural hard-on. He is only doing what IS COMPLETELY NATURAL AND RIGHT AND GOOD.
Your learned "puritanism" is where the problem lies.

You must be living in some sort of parallel universe where common courtesy and manners do not exist. If a man happens to get an erection in public, I'm sure everyone would sympasize with him because it would be an embarrassing situation. I'd certainly not consider it an opportunity to "introduce myself" to others....unless you were in the midst of a sexual encounter. It is analogous to masterbation and I think we can all agree it is very natural. However, children are taught that masterbation is oaky but a private matter to be done alone and would be considered socially unacceptable to practice in public. Similarly, it would be considered very rude to publicly display an erection to the public. No one has a right to force overt sexuality on anyone. This is NOT the same as nudity by the way. Nudity is not sexual by nature.John H. said:Hi Luke,

No doubt, but I think that our dear John H is playing on words...Do u sincerely think that any dude would walk into the cafeteria on his first day with a big boner, extending his hand to shake yours??lolLW83 said:If you're new co-worker Introduced himself to you by showing you his hard on, you would file sexual harassment. If you say no, you're lying.

bio-chem said:your stupidity is where your problem lies. "breathe" what the hell are you talking about? the fact is society has the right to decide what is to be acceptable. each society decides what is acceptable for themselves. it has nothing to do with puritianism. we have decided we dont want to let murderers walk out streets, so we put them in jail. and society as a majority here in america has decided the social norm is to not walk around with your hard-on poking through your jeans. (wich is kind of painfull actually) society in order to function decided what is to be done. its the majority that is so high and mighty it has nothing to do with God on this one. have you ever lived in another country with a different culture? when in Rome do as the Romans do. you quickly learn to adapt to that culture to be accepted, or you choose to be an outcast. the human race is a social one and there must be social norms for society to function. anarchy is not an acceptable basis for society.

Look at it this way. If you were at a little kids birthday party with lots of young children around and you started waving your hard on around, you wouldn't think thats wrong?

John, you are an exhibitionist aren't you....
I surely am offended if you are walking around the street sporting the dick. Just like you don't understand why I should be offended, I don't understand why you should be showing it around like a new car. Sorry, if you want to show it off, go to a nudist colony.
Why the hell do I have to look at another man's member? I don't like to watch another dude's dick. Nothing to do with puritanism, but with the fact that I'd rather look at a clitoris than a penis, but not in the middle of the street where my kids can watch...That's just wrong John, you are wrong....
crazy_enough said:Im just wondering why any man would actually want others to notice that he is aroused?! I mean, surely in the bedroom, (or bathhouse, for those of that persuasion!!) I would want to clealy be made aware of my partner's arousal, and a hard on does just that, but while it does occur quite naturaly and most often beyond a man's "control", I would have to agree that prancing ur hard dick around like its a wonder of nature leaves me perplexed!
Im not saying that you should duct tape it just in case, but ya know!!! I wouldnt be offended by the sight of a man sporting a woody, it happens, I do beleive that its a perfectly normal occurence, yet seeing some dude trying to make his hard on "obvious" in any social context wouldnt be very appealing!
I do think that calling it sexual harrassement is pushing the enveloppe a bit...

i am sorry to inform you but Luke is straight. And if you were to introduce yourself to him in your god-given natural way his natural response would quite likely leave you something like this
Bless me, what a fry of fornication is at the door.
