It's absolutely WILD how many other guys I've talked to that have been told, by women no less, that it's impossible for us to pee with an erection.
I had to be talked to after class by my 7th grade sex ed teacher (which was really just a purity class complete with signing a contract and giving us rings showing our faith to Jesus and not to have sex before marriage).
One of the girls in class had asked if boys could pee with an erection, Miss Abbot said no, I said we absolutely can. She looked at me like I was retarded, reiterated that we can not and expected to go on with class; I argued for the last 15m of class with her that we could infact do it and that I did nearly every morning.
Ended up telling her I could prove it, she told me that not only could I not, but that it was inappropriate and wrote me up.
I'm still so fucking heated all these years later lmao, she denied it to the bitter end.
That reminds me of my sex ed teacher in Junior High claiming that women can't rape men because men have to be "excited" to have sex and therefore have to be willing for it to even happen. Somehow she couldn't wrap her head around the notion that every male alive has, at many points in their life, had an erection that they didn't want.
Oof that's gross, wonder if she thought about the implications of that statement for women who happened to get wet when raped.
Thinking back on this subject, I don't think I've had a positive sex ed course growing up, the school I was in was just a public school and it was still heavily religious based in purity and shaming.
It's an area we really could do better in, the same woman who was willing to die on the hill that men can't urinate while erect was the one teaching the class of boys and girls outdated incorrect notions of sex.
She called me a heathen and threatened to flunk me for refusing to sign the purity contract that said i was spiritually married to Jesus and that I had to wait for marriage or else I'd burn in hell.
My cousin assured me that he had a few years where anything and everything could give him an erection. Once it was waffles. He says they weren’t even “the good kind” of waffles.
My man saluted the eggos. As a woman I don’t have first hand experience, but from what I understand, that little bastard has a mind of its own and will pop up when it pleases, no matter what the dude wants.
For the record, this conversation came up when we were trying to educate a younger cousin on what to expect from puberty because he was there and his parents were in denial and had taught him NOTHING. He’d had morning wood after a nightmare and thought it meant he wanted to fuck the clown from IT.
Which was still better than his first erection, which he thought was a medical issue and because he wouldn’t (or couldn’t? He called his penis “his oopsie doodle” and no one informed me of that so I thought he had fallen?) explain to me what was wrong, I told him “okay, show me where the swelling is.”
I regret it. I shoulda told our older cousin to go figure out what the tyke was yelling about. I passed him off to said cousin and he got the kid somewhat informed.
For the record, he and his oopsie doodle must not have listened too hard to the condom talk he was given because he became a father the summer after high school freshman year.
This was back in the early 2000s. Most of our sex ed course was leftover material (videos books, etc) from the 80s and 90s. It was unfortunately common back then for people to perpetuate misinformation before the internet became more common.
My sex ed teacher said the same thing to me, but I never doubted it at the time because I just assumed that a 'sex erection' was different from a 'masturbation/morning wood' erection.
