What other reasons do guys get hard/erection?

I thought that guys only got hard when they were aroused like how we get wet because we're aroused. But my guy told me that he gets hard in the morning and when its cold too.

  • OMG someone explain the "morning glory" to this poor girl.

    Ok, so obviously while you sleep your bladder gets more and more full so you often really have to pee when you wake up.

    The other thing is guys constantly get erections while they sleep, they come and go, I can't remember how often but I'm sure you can google it.

    So a guy gets hard in his sleep, his bladder is full, pressure on the prostate gland... and so it doesn't go away and you're hard when you wake up. I find I either have to stand up and stop it from rubbing my boxers for about 5minutes to get it to go away or, if no-one is home, get to the toilet, bend right over and try to push it down so it points down and you can pee *LOL*

  • Hardons happen randomly, when we think about sex, if we let out selves think about your exposed leg, thigh, brest, face, voice, fantacy. Some guys don't wast a hard on some do. To little sexual releife can often lead to getting hardl especially when young. Getting a tough, brush, or bump by a women, holding/hugging a woman, kissing, being touched anywhere bya womwen can lead to raging hadness and a desire to have sex.

    Getting hard just a normal life thing. You can rest assured someone has seen you and masturbated while recalling your body/face ect :P But generally, its not your fault..

  • The body does dozens of "self checks" every day that will result in an erection or partial erection, with absolutely nothing to do with arousal. Yes erection does occur when a man is aroused, but it most definitely is not the only reason.

  • Usually we get them in the morning. Sometimes they happen for no reason at all.

    • So you guys do not have to be aroused?

    • Not always. But that's usually the case.

  • every guy under 25 probably wakes up hard! doesn't mean he needs to use it, its just something that happens.. lets say like gravity..its just there and no one knows why or how! we get turned on randomly about things that make no sense! they younger we are the more often it happens! a guy can get hard sitting at his office at work by himself actually doing work not thinking about sexing with no one around him! very true very common!

    • Interesting...

  • Those are called out of nowhere boners, it is like when you are just doing some normal thing and randomly have an erection for no reason. They also for some reason seem to happen during the worst possible time like when taking a picture, presenting a presentation, or other similar activities when it is sure to be noticed.

  • I get random semi ones, which then make me think of things that make me aroused, and I have a 'big' problem. Especially on the bus or train.. When it happens, I put my head down and start thinking about '2 girls 1 cup' to make it go away..

    • 2 girls 1cup lol what exactly does that mean?

    • It's one of the most disgusting videos I've ever seen..

    • Oh lol.

  • Probably I get hard every time I wake up in d morning..

  • actually a normal man will get several erections while sleeping at night. This was proven long ago during various sleep studies.

  • besides sexual arousal and morning wood, THEYRE TOTALLY RANDOM.

  • Men can get them for a variety of reasons, regardless of their state of mind. Sometimes it is because its getting rubbed just enough in their pant legs to get it part way up, sometimes vibrations will get it up, and it is even possible to get them out of the blue for no apparent reason. These reasons and many more have occurred with me, and just about every time it has been mortifying. When I get them I think more about how embarrassing it is than about the source, be it spontaneous or female induced.

  • morning wood, arousal, this little minor thing, other than that im good !!

    What other reasons do guys get hard/erection?

  • erections can occur at any time. often while sleeping, always when your aroused, sometimes its just your body doin a test flight to make sure everything is in check.

  • When we need to pee. Friction, like riding a car on a bumpy rode. I also get a hard on very easily if I lay down on my stomach and put my elbows on the ground.

  • thts because of urine gets accumulated in the bladder since we don't pee for 7-8 hours while we are sleeping

    which actually gives it the illusion of being hard

    • I cannot agree with that statement.

    • How he said it sounds stupid, but holding off on taking a p*ss definitely leads to an erection
