Secret Sources
In the previous post we took a look at the prevalence of using electronic devices such as laptops and cell phones to access visual material for jerking off. In this post, let’s take a look at some of the specific sources you like to use to find this turn on material. Do you have favorite websites that you visit? Magazines you keep? A secret stash of pics on your computer? Movies you pop in the DVD player? Let’s take a look.
To answer these polls, use the OTHER selection to write out your specific answer. The first two selections on the polls are just for instruction purposes to direct you to the OTHER selection. (The way the polls work, you need to fill out at least 2 fields, that’s why it looks the way it does).
How Steve Jobs Changed The Landscape of Modern Masturbation
Little did Steve Jobs know. When he and his company were churning out those marvelous little technical innovations like the personal computer, the laptop, the iPhone and the iPad, I’m sure he was somewhat aware of the impact those products would have, or were going to have, on our lives. But, did he realize that he was also altering the landscape of masturbation as we know it?
Let me explain. You see, as you well know, masturbation is the end result of stimulus and arousal. We get turned on. We get horny. We masturbate. In addition, to facilitate the quality of the masturbatory experience, many guys make use of erotic images to fuel the masturbation session. In times past, our access to the things that either got us horny in the first place or helped us while jerking off, was pretty limited. Back in the day, guys had to rush off into the woods with a copy of the Sears catalog to spank it over the bra ads. Or maybe they stuck the latest issue of National Geographic under their shirt, hid under their covers and got busy while checking out the naked tribespeople of the world. Years later, some crazily fortunate guys had moms or wives who got the Victoria Secret catalog delivered to their home. And, of course there was dad’s secret Playboy stash, a muscle magazine under the mattress, or maybe even some forbidden gay porn mag hidden away in the attic.
And, then came the home computer…and the Internet…and the laptop…and the iPhone…and the iPad. Access to erotic imagery exploded. But, not only that, the portability of that access developed. Guys went from jumping on the family computer when everyone was out then running up to their room to bust a nut, to taking their cell phones to bed with them for a search, a chat, a boner and a wank. These days, guys can literally carry the world’s entire collection of erotic imagery in their front jeans pocket and keep it on vibrate.
The end result is that many guys have now gotten used to involving electronic devices in their masturbation routines. So, in a way, Steve Jobs had a lot to do with those wadded up tissues under your bed. Don’t get me wrong, Steve certainly didn’t invent masturbation or cause there to be any increase in its incidence. There still are, and always have been, and always will be, guys who utilize their imagination and minds to jack off as they will, where they will, when they will. The original portable computer will always be with us.
Okay. So what about you? Are you a device driven wanker or more of the mentalist? Take the polls and let’s see what you’re about…
The Top 5 Secret Things All Guys Do (But Few Will Admit To) REVISITED
Here’s another look at one of our most popular and challenging (and revealing) posts. It’s a probing look at several of those secret “things” that all guys seem to do at some point in their lives, whether they want to admit to it or not. They’re those little private guy moments of self discovery and experimentation that just seem to pop into our minds. Little moments of satisfying a burning curiosity that pop up when nobody’s around and you have the house to yourslef. Doesn’t matter if you’re gay, straight or anything else, these are guy activities that for the most part, you’re probably not going to get many guys to admit to…but hey, think about yourself. You know you’ve done these haven’t you? What are we talking about? Well here are the Top 5 Secret Things That ALL Guys Do (But Few Will Admit To)…
1. MEASURING YOUR BONER. Okay, this one is pretty much a no brainer. Seems likes most every guy has a desire to know just how far his Johnson measures out. We kind of like having a benchmark to go by when others are bragging or we read one of those articles on Secret Guy Stuff about average sizes or sizes by country. This one is probably the one most guys will admit to doing, whether or not they reveal the honest results depends on the guy. The thing is, we just want to know where we stand (so to speak). Length seems to be the measurement we’re most curious about, although some guys go for the whole breakdown and measure girth and angle and curvature as well. I have heard several guys say they’ve never measured, never thought about it, and just don’t care, but this attitude is pretty suspicious…if you ask me.
2. TAKING A PIC OF YOURSELF NAKED. Hey all guys are porn stars in their minds. And what better way to gauge our porn potential and star quality than taking a few pictures or videos of ourselves naked and/or in action. Whether or not we save these pics, or whether or not we ever show them to anyone else depends again on the guy and his level of exhibitionism, but capturing ourselves on camera seems like something we just gotta try at some point.
3. TASTING YOUR STUFF. Day after day, night after night, we’ve been expelling our semen into tissues, socks, onto our stomachs and possibly our bedroom walls. But what is it LIKE?? How does it taste? Is it good? Is it nasty? If we’ve got a partner in the picture is he/she gonna puke or smile when this stuff crosses his/her palette? Seems like at some point every guy wants to know and takes the plunge and tastes his own semen. For some it’s no big deal, maybe it’s even the preferred method of post pud pulling clean up. For others it’s more heart pounding than sneaking you dad’s 50 year old scotch for the very first time.
4. SEEING IF YOU CAN BLOW YOURSELF. Here again, curiosity gets the best of us. I’ve got this joy stick I’m playing with. Will it reach? Could I get it in my mouth? What would that possibly feel like?? What would someone else taste if they did that? What is a BLOWJOB really like??? Well…one way to find out. Bend over as far as you can, mouth open, tongue reaching for the prize. Or throw your legs over your head and try it that way. It’s probably worth pointing out that very few guys can actually achieve the goal. Some can touch their tongues, but that’s as far as they get. Even if achieving Number 3 is a failure, however, it is still a useful procedure to achieve Number 2.
5. FINGER IN THE BUTT. You’ve heard about it. You’ve possibly seen it in movies. Friends talk about it. Buddies joke about it. Maybe you’ve heard of people you know doing it. Rumor has it that a finger (or other object) in the butt can feel mighty nice when you’re masturbating. I mean it makes sense, right? The entire area is alive with electricity and the anus is not any less of an erogenous zone than anywhere else in the neighborhood. But is that weird? Is that gross? Is it cool?? Well. One way to find out. This is probably the one most guys won’t ever admit to…at least not in public. For most guys, having other guys know that they’re poking themselves like that is a bit too much information to reveal.
So what about YOU? Have you done these things? Some? All? None? Got other Secret Things ALL Guys Do that we haven’t mentioned. Leave a comment with your thoughts. Take the polls and admit ANONYMOUSLY what you may not ever be able to admit to in front of the guys.
A Man and His Penis
A man and his penis. Best friends. Inseparable. They go everywhere together. They play together. It’s a special relationship that only a guy can truly understand.
Some guys don’t really think too much about their penises. They carry them around and handle them as necessary to perform various bodily functions. Sure they play around once in a while, but like a dog that sleeps in the yard, the relationship isn’t really all that hands on all the time.
Other guys are a little more involved in the relationship. They care about how the big guy looks. They care about how big the the big guy is. They pay attention to the comfort, care and feeding of their buddies. They take time when buying condoms. The look in the mirror alot. And, many guys tend to wonder here and there, how does mine compare to others? Is is better? Bigger? More popular. They too play around, possibly a lot. This is a tight master/dog relationship, but this dog sleeps in the house.
Some guys go through life never really being satisfied with their penis. They wish it was more this and less that. They feel like they suffer in comparison to others. They may even be unusually embarrassed about things like length, curve, a freckle on the tip… Other guys, in contrast are extremely proud of their units. They stand in front of mirrors marveling at their majesty. The fantasize about careers in porn. And then, in between, are guys who probably are pretty satisfied overall, but who really wouldn’t mind another inch just for grins.
So what about you? How satisfied are you about your best buddy? Take a look below….no, not at your penis….at the polls, and let’s see what you’ve got to say on the subject.
Good Morning Wood
Well good morning! And what do we have here? Your buddy has been up early and is now standing there waiting patiently for you to wake up. I’m not talking about your dog. I’m talking about the characteristic guy phenonenon knows as Morning Wood.
Morning wood is a pretty common event in a typical guy’s day. Well a good deal of days anyway. We groggily scramble up to consciousness and awaken to a super stiffy struggling underneath our boxer shorts. It’s not known exactly why it happens, but it’s completely normal and in no way indicates anything is wrong with you. In fact, it’s just the opposite. Morning wood is a good indicator that all is healthy and well with Mr. Happy and the plumbing of your reproductive system. The only problems morning wood can cause comes from the fact that those erections tend to be bullet proof and can be difficult to manage when you need to take that first pee of the day. And, because you may still be asleep when you have them, they tend to be ripe for the photo taking adventures of those annoying camera wielding roommates.
There’s even a scientific term for morning wood (go figure). It’s called “nocturnal penile tumescence” (NPT). On average a healthy male will have between three and five (or more) erections during a full night’s sleep, with each erection lasting between 25 -35 minutes. Some guys get them here and there, others get them pretty much every morning.
It is a common myth that morning erections are caused by a full bladder. Not true. While the precise reason for morning wood is unknown, it is known that they are closely associated with REM sleep (the time in the night when you dream and brain activity changes). Some studies suggest that morning erections are a way for your body to make sure everything is in working order.
So welcome to the new day. Kind of nice your friend is up and ready to greet you.
Head Trips — Are You A Darth Vader?
Gentlemen, I give you the head. The glans. The shroom. The apple in the baby’s arm. The end of our unit where the powers that be so generously packed all those pleasure centers and unf inducing nerve endings. At first glance, the glans has a generally similar shape and size and proportion from guy to guy. But when you take a closer look it actually takes on a very individualized look for each guy. The size and contours of the head vary more than you might think. Chances are if you and a bunch of your friends compared, yeah your heads would all be generally similar (I mean you could tell you weren’t comparing ears or something) but they would also be uniquely distinct for each of you. (Just like ears are generally similar but also very individual).
Some guy’s heads look uncannily like Darth Vader’s helmet (what were they thinking?), some are more reminiscent of a Nazi war helmet. There are those that resemble Charlie Chaplin’s famous bowler while others are closer to the cap of a British bobby. The overall basic shape is helmet-like, but from there you find heads that are rounded like a piece of fruit or that have a distinctly sharp lower ridge, ones that have soft, rounded contours, and ones that have more severe edges. The overall shape of the penis head is somewhat baffling to scientists. Some theorize that the plunger like construction aids in the stuffing, spreading and schmeering of seminal fluid during intercourse to better facilitate impregnation.
So take a look at your head. Compare it to the chart above. What shape does your shape generally shape up like? Which of the seven shapes depicted are you MOST similar to?
Roomies — Part Three, SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES
In this series we’ve been probing into how guys cope with special living circumstances that may (or may not) pose a challenge to finding that “alone time” for indulging in the manly art of masturbating. In Part One we looked at what guys do when they share a room with one or more brothers. In Part Two we examined how guys navigate school roommates and dormitory situations. In Part Three we’re going to look at more some of the more special circumstances that guys might find themselves living in that pose unique challenges to their masturbation habits…situations such as being in the military, at an camp or retreat of some sort, or maybe even in prison or rehab.
So what does a guy do when they’re in these situations? The testosterone is flowing but you’re not necessarily all that free to move around at will and don’t have much control over your schedule or who you’re with at any given moment of the day. And, sleeping arrangements are usually communal rooms full of cots and bunkbeds. Even the bathroom and shower facilities are usually communal. Do guys just go abstinent for the duration? Does everybody just go ahead and jack off because they all know they’re in the same situation and it’s the only option? Well, if you currently are or have been in any of these situations (I have not) let us know the drill….
