Can you find photos attractive and still not get a boner is that normal? I thought guys can’t control it they see something they like and they can get erect but is it normal to still be attracted to the person or photo and not get hard?
Sure, I can control myself, but it depends on the situation.
I can look at a picture of an attractive woman, and not get aroused. Just seeing a picture, without context or intent, does nothing for me, whatsoever.
What I mean is, if you just show me a picture, then it's nothing more than a picture, and nothing happens. However, if I'm looking at the exact same picture, because I intend to do something, like masturbate, then sure; I'd get an erection. The difference being the reason why I'm looking at it.
Likewise, if a girlfriend sends me an erotic picture of herself, then I'd get aroused, without that intent being present, due to the context. She's someone I already have an intimate relatiinship with, and sent it to me for the specific reason of turning me on.
If an attractive woman comes up to me, out of nowhere, and says she wants to have sex with me, then it's not going to have any effect on me. Partly because that's just absurd, and partly because I have no connection to her, whatsoever. If a girlfriend did the exact same thing, then I'd have an erection within seconds.
I don't know if that makes any sense, but hopefully it helps a little.

No, that does not ALWAYS happen. LOL.
It's normal for teen guys, especially in their younger teens, to have little control over their boners. Almost anything can make a 14-year-old boy pop a boner. But as guys get older, they develop control, and normally, in public, they maintain this control. This takes some effort, but they get used to it and quickly forget that they're expending effort to do so.
BUT... when they're alone, or with their girl, they usually relax that control, and so boners, even random ones, can happen. They can also NOT happen. Maybe he's tired, maybe he's stressed, maybe he didn't get good sleep, or hasn't been eating right. Maybe he's had lots of sex (or masturbation) and needs to "recharge his batteries." Maybe his hormones are just low that day.
Even as a generalization, the best you can say is that "boners OFTEN happen" in these situations - it's never been the case that they ALWAYS happen.

What you describe is more of a teen thing. Grown men have a bit mote control.

0 24Absolutely not. Nothing is so automatic. I can be turned on and not have an erection. I can look at nudes and be turned on, but not as much as when I anticipate physical sex with someone. Sorry, it depends on a number of things.
The story that guys are visually stimulated is one of the oldest pieces of bullshit to die. There is no major difference in the brain of guys vs girls. We all get turned on when we tickle the right parts of the mind. Visuals play a role, but they are not enough.
0 0 0 0Nope…too trashy junk out everywhere or like OF takes the mystique and beauty “That is Woman” away
0 0 0 0Yes, men actually have CONTROL over our dicks and aren't just instantly attracted to any female who is nude or half naked. I certainly wouldn't get stiff looking at a naked Hillary Clinton or Lizzo. Some women aren't that attractive, obviously.
0 1 0 0You asked two different questions - do I always get erections over hot girls nude, and can I find the photos attractive but not get a boner. So if I say yes, am I saying I always get erections over hot girls nude, or that I can find them attractive and not get a boner.
I can go to nude beaches and not get an erection. Not the place of time for sexual arousal.
0 0 0 0Yes, it is completely normal for a guy to see a sexy photo of a girl and not become fully erect, or erect at all. It depends on the situation in which he is seeing the image. I almost always feel a tinge in my penis when I see a super hot nude woman, but it doesn’t always lead to a full erection.
0 0 0 0Personally no. In fact just taking a look rarely will. I'm a bit older though so...
0 0 0 0No.

0 0 0 0Lol it just depends on if I'm wanting to get a boner and sometimes while high on meth I can get an erection but when I start to fuck with it it goes away.
0 0 0 0It will at least START to get a little hard but, I've seen so many naked girls in my life, I'd practically have to be fucking her or at least have her naked in the same room with me to get real hard.
0 0 0 0Touching and feeling a girl, particular smells like perfume coming from her. They are way better.. way better than just a picture. Yes some can get erections from a pic - but nothing beats the real person face to face, in your arms, and where it can lead to in the imagination 😉
0 0 0 0well there's one big factor. how long since i last came? if i litterally just came, i look at all the hottest nudes and not get hard. if i didn't cum in a few days, i'll get hard just thinking of it.
so likeif i got off this morning, i won't get hard for the rest of the day, "if" i don't want to. but if i didn't cum in days, it's impossible to control at some point.
0 0 0 0Teenagers might get boners over that stuff but most men would not.
0 0 0 0With both men and women. 💞
0 0 0 0As I get older I get less erections. But it is possible to not get one so it’s not an alarm.
0 0 0 0Not always.
0 0 0 0Normal to. have no reaction to photos
0 0 0 0I think people can, but I can't. I get them all the time without meaning to.
0 0 0 0I don't get hard every time, so yes
0 0 0 0Men are quite visual people. Especially if a attractive woman poses for them in the nude or some kind of sexy pose. They can also get an erection at the drop of a hat when they see a set of tits from a woman.
0 0 0 0I don't really understand what you mean, but I'll tell you the truth. Erection and ejaculation generally occur in the majority of the world, and here is the talk about masturbation addicts. After ejaculation, the man feels completely satisfied with any sexual activity for a period ranging from several hours and up to two days as a maximum, for the man to return to being aroused by any picture or video or an attractive girl on the street to return to watching and practicing pleasure Self but sometimes I feel the need to change this thing or change the way I really like to have a partner because his interaction with me can greatly improve the mood.. For your friend when he hugged you he did not get erect This is normal it is possible that he ejaculated alone or he is confused or sick There are several reasons Reduces the possibility of an erection
