I don't mind when I get an erection in public, sometimes I'll go to the nearest toilet and have a wank to get rid of it. when I was younger I was watching a movie with my sister and her friend and I fell asleep during the movie and my sisters friend was sitting next to me on the couch and noticed I had an erection and they started laughing at me which was kind of embarrasing.

When I get an erection in school, which is frequently, I usually cover it up so the girls don't see. But when girls aren't watching, I see boys "grabbing and adjusting" all the time.
Age: 13         Location: Orange,Texas         

I sort of feel funny about it and will look around to make sure nobody is aware. Since I wear baggy jeans or shorts, you really can't tell, so I don't really do anything to hide it. I'm just thankful that I can still get erections, like that.

When I get an erection in public it's usually not a big deal. If I'm sitting down it's easy to conceal and then I look around at some of the prettier ladies and that usually starts to get me going. Then I find a bathroom and start to go at it. One time I was grunting and another guy said, "constipated eh", and I said yeah. Sometimes I just try and relax until it goes away and if I'm walking I try to make sure no one notices by walking a little ahead

It makes me feel very annoyed as it pokes and makes everything uncomfortable. I try to shift it around to make it more bearable, but it's usually all for not.
Age: 15         Location: Milton, GA         

I feel pretty strange, ecspecially when I am in my classes (I sit next to the homecoming queen). Usually they laugh and point, I just smile.
Age: 16         Location: United States         

I feel somewhat embarassed but it doesn't bother me that much. I'm still going through the "wonders" of puberty so I just have to bear through it. I usually try to hide it or position it so it's not obviously showing.
Age: 17         Location: Canada         

ha its great. lets be honest its fun to get hard - if its in public the only thing to do is try and avoid everyone in the world seeing it.
Age: 27         Location: canada         

Some times I do and I try to hide it until it goes away
Age: 16         Location: Us         

Yes I'm very imbarassed becouse it hurts in my pants and I can't go down there and fix it, and secondly I just don't like people seeing me erect becouse then they start to wonder and back away.???
Age: 11         Location: Sanantonio Texas         

i love getting erections in public especially at my friends house!i wear tight jeans and when my me and my friends talk about beating off you can sometimes see it thru my jeans. one time this happened and my friend gave me a nut tap(when they hit you in the nut sack) and he felt it and left his hand there so a second it was really intense and felt so good even though were both straight later that day when beat off and my orgasm was amzaing!!
Age: 16         Location: hartford         

yes I do and then I go to the public toilets and take care of it very slow
Age: 56         Location: australia         

Try and hid it obviously, usually by pushing it down the side of my leg or sitting on my left hand so my arm conceals my erect penis. I know, sneaky ^_-
Age: 14         Location: UK

Age: 15         Location: uk         

Depends on what kind of pants I'm wearing, if it's gym shorts, then it will probably be showing... I usually just try to cover it up and sorta bend over a little. If I'm wearing jeans or something, then I don't need to worry, unless it's real, real hard.
Age: 13         Location: USA         

I wear skinny jeans so when I get my erections they are very noticable, Sometime I do something called belting it and its when you put your penis up, between your belt or top of your jeans and your stomach
Age: 13         Location: New Mexico         

Kind of embarrassing. I just try and hide it.
Age: 20         Location: Michigan         

It makes me feel awkward and uncomfortable. Im with my mom in public so I talk to her or distract myself until it goes away.
Age: 13         Location: Saint Albans West Virginia         

I usually feel a bit embarrassed. I mean it's nothing to get all upset about, but it is a bit embarrassing, especially if someone notices. I usually stick my hand in my pocket, and just move my penis around to where you can't really notice. Or I just zip up my jacket, stick my hands in my pockets, and cover up.
Age: Male         Location: Washington         

It simply feels awkward, but it can also be a bit uncomfortable. I usually do what Seth suggested in Superbad and try to get it under the waistband of my underwear if I can do so without anyone seeing.
Age: 17         Location: TX         

once I got an erection in public, I was with my friend and he saw it, so we went to the toilets and he gave me head
Age: 12         Location: australia         

i get an erection a lot in public. no specific time. and if there is a bathroom near by I go jack. or I just try to make it go away. it depends on what I'm doing for how I feel
Age: 15         Location: Washington         

I just sit there and wait for the erection to go away, or sometimes get up and walk around when no ones looking. Or you could just masturbate, thats probably what I would do.
Age: 14         Location: Granville         

I just conceal it as best as I can and wait for him to die down. I only get embarrassed if someone visibly notices it!
Age: 13         Location: Dallas, TX         

It's never really been a big deal in my book. I usually try to adjust my penis to the least conspicuous position, but other than that I usually give it little thought - nobody's ever teased me about it.
Age: 23         Location: Texas         

Well, when I get an erection in public, I am horny. So I feel really horny. Most times it is an uncomfortable moment because I can't do anything about it. What I do is try to think of non-sexual arousing things. But if I'm just to horny I try to get home asap so I can masturbate.
Age: 15         Location: California         

I usually get an erection in public because its cold, its my best friend who I did stuff with, or sometimes for no reason at all. when it happens I don't get highly embarrassed but mostly annoyed. I use to get really embarrassed and wouldn't move, but then I figured it was natural and not moving would only attract attention. Now the whole thing just bothers me because I try to walk right but my penis is in a constant battle for space with my jeans. So every step means a less space and less space means more slight jolts of itch.
Age: 17         Location: Canada, Toronto         

It makes me feel very nervouse when I get an erection in public. I feel it is as evident to see as the sun in the sky. Even though my penis isn't large, I still feel everyone can see it. I feel espicially inclined to not walk around and to try and hide it as best as possible. All-in-all, it is quite akward.
Age: 15         Location: CA         

For some reason, I feel really proud, because I tend to feel bigger in public. I don't do much except pull my shirt down over the bulge, but it's nice to have that moment of feeling superior.
Age: 13         Location: Washington         

Usually id say most come to me during school or other times, the best thing to do is to flip up your wang into your boxer waist band, just make sure your not sticking out the top! -Colin
Age: 17         Location: Wisconsin         

It makes me feel great. I grab it out and pump.
Age: 13         Location: Australia         

Sometimes its embarasing, if I can I'll try to take care of it (i.e. go to a washroom and fix the problem).
Age: 16         Location: Seattle         

usually I dont but if I do I usually just leave it alone for awhile and if I'm leaving that place I'll see if it keeps and then masturbate when I get privacy
Age: 13         Location: Pittsburgh, PA         

I think about being spanked
Age: 30         Location: Canada         

i sumtimes get imbersd depends what I'm warriong and if noticable but not usualy
Age: 16         Location: oregon         

I find myself masturbating a LOT in public toilets when I'm out.i can be in a store and see someone attractive(especially in the summertime) and have the strongest need to masturbate so I hit the restroom and sit in a stall. apparently I'm not alone doing this because I have had other guys masturbating sitting in next stals. sooooo hot!!!!!
Age: 29         Location: georgia         

It has no effect on me, and no I generally try to ignore it
Age: 15         Location: Australia         

It can be sort of embarrassing but feels thrilling too. In the past I have wanked off to relieve the pressure. Usually by finding a loo but I have rubbed myself off inside my trouser - using a handy pocket.
Age: 47         Location: uk         

It depends. If I'm walking down the street, I try to adjust my penis to make sure it's not 100% obvious. If I'm in the locker room at the gym or YMCA, I don't care about it there, because it's natural
Age: 19         Location: NC         

It makes me horny and I usually continue to rub my election discreetly with me legs or hand. But if I realize I'll soon be in a position where I can't hide an erection, I focus really hard on letting it die.
Age: 17         Location: Washington D.C.         

It makes me feel nervous. I usually try to discretely make it less noticeable my moving my penis around using my hand through my pants' pocket.
Age: 14         Location: MD         

I get excited if girls are around. I will make it point directly to left or right so it outlines in my jeans if I feel like a little exhibition or I will try to hide it.
Age: 17         Location: Sheboygan WI         

yeah if school counts, but no not really I don't just walk and get one. If I'm sitting down I can if theres something arousing going on. But I'm pretty good at hiding it and getting it to go down, so usually I just ignore it and wait until I get home and I'm alone.
Age: 15         Location: PA         

I get really turned on and want to masturbate but I try to cover it up or hide it and wait for it to go aeay
Age: 14         Location: Colorado         

i feel embarsed and say the pledge of allegience or think of old women necked to make it go away
Age: 18         Location: 813         

I get embarrassed and I try to stay where I am so that people will not notice
Age: 19         Location: Georgia         

I think it feels amazing.
Age: 27         Location: PA         

Uncomfortable... I feel very self conscious and attempt to hide it which I think draws attention to myself
Age: 13         Location: Australia         

just go with it
Age: 59         Location: MI         

I whip it out right there in the middle of walmart, so my cousin, and my sister, can take turns, fighting right in the middle of the baby food isle, over who can suck my long hard incest penis first.
Age: 22         Location: Forks, Washington         

I don't care at all
Age: 21         Location: Ohio         

it feels amazing especially if I'm in class surrounded by hot girls. Sometimes I run the head through my trouser pocket. never managed to cum in class yet came very close yesterday though :D I'll get
Age: 15         Location: UK         

When I get an erection in class, I usually try to cover it up with either my books or my hoodie. It works, haha. But other times I usually just try to keep my mind off of it to make it go away.
Age: 14         Location: Virginia         

I just adjust it so it's not as noticable... To be honest, feeling my erection against my thigh while at school... kinda turns me on. *slightly embarassed*
Age: 14         Location: Dallas, TX         

I love it!
Age: 18         Location: Abington, PA         

When I get an erection in public I'm usually at school. I get spontanius erections practically everyday, so I feel slightly annoyed. I don't really worry about anyone seeing me because I am an expert when it comes to hiding unwanted erections. I'll just focus on other things around me (not girls) until they go away. Honestly, the worst part is knowing that I can't masturbate until I get home. Oh, the agony!
Age: 14         Location: Connecticut         

I get very nervous because I don't want anybody to see. I normally just stay seated or move to somewhere more secluded until it goes down.
Age: 17         Location: Houston, Tx         

I feel sometimes embarrassed, as if those around me can see right through my pants. I try to ignore it, and it tends to go away, because if I try to make it go away, it only gets harder and harder. So, a tip for those who get embarrassed by public erections, just try not to think about your erection.
Age: 14         Location: US, Georgia         

It makes me feel embarassed and annoyed, and I just want it to go away. Usually if you put it down in your pants, and stand up and walk like you normally would, it will go away for me.
Age: 15         Location: NYS         

It depends where I am, if I'm in school I'll rub it a lot and look at people in my class to get aroused. If I'm around strangers or friends I will move my erection so it stays up on the elastic part of my pants. I always get boners in public though!!!
Age: 16         Location: WI         

i just don't worry about it. If people want to look at me, then they look at me. If they don't, then they don't. I mean, its just a dick for crying out loud. All guys have one. No Biggie if it gets a little happy in my pants, right?
Age: 18         Location: New York         

I frequently become aroused during public places,especially school. I get embarassed and try to cover it up. I feel selfconcious sometimes, and start think people notice.
Age: 17         Location: california         

Usually I try to hide it or attempt to become flaccid. It can be embarrassing in a class situation, but its worse if your somewhere that your going to have to stand up from and you can't do anything about it
Age: 19         Location: USA         

I'm not very shy about my body but if I get an erection in public I'll try to shift it so as to make it less visible but I'm not uncomfortable about it. It seems like other people would make a bigger deal about it than I would.
Age: 17         Location: Connecticut         

A little embarrasing!
Age: 14         Location: New Zealand         

it totally depends on where I am and who I am with. if I am in a crowd full of people I dont know then I dont really care. if I am with the family...its so awkward because someone always notices. I usually go into the bathroom and masturbate or if I can't do that, then I just wait it out and try to keep my mind off of it.
Age: 18         Location: maryland         

no I want people to see it!
Age: 66         Location: New York         

when I get an erection in pubic 9which is usualy every day in school)i feel realy embarassed beacuse I think what if someone els sees it, and also ver aroused and start to fantsizeing about the guys in my class. well I try to hope it goes away I usualy start singing song lyrics in my head and that sometimes helps but usualy it doesnt go away,
Age: 15         Location: virgina         

It's fine if I'm horny and I can't stop thinking about my favorite fantasy. It's best when I'm sitting down and I don't mind as long as it goes away before I stand up.
Age: 16         Location: Vermont         

I usually get one (randomly) seeing a guys johnson through jogging shorts. I'm not gay but I often fantasize bout male members while masturbating. I'm not sur why.
Age: 18         Location: Iowa         

i feels normal and I dont do anything about it
Age: 13         Location: maryland         

Normally, I try to hide it until I can get to a restroom and jerk off.It'd be very embarassing for me to be noticed when I'm turned on, unless I'm only with the guys.
Age: 13         Location: Mexico         

I feel socially awkward, but I know that all men get them everyday. I guess its just a mental thing. And I do do something about it. I push it up past my belt buckle so that visually disappears, but I still know that it is there.
Age: 15         Location: Ohio         

I presume this question is about spontaneous erections. I say this because, I have occasionally got an erection in a public place deliberately e.g. at a urinal stall. I feel really embarrased if I get a spontaneous erection in public, because it is so inappropriate. I'm anxious that someone will see my bulge. I often have to go to committee meetings at work, and this is where I am most likely to get spontaneous erections. I don't know whether this is becasue of the stress of the situation or because I am sitting next to somebody who I fancy. Is probably a mixture of both. Obviously you can't do anything about it in the middle of a meeting, which is very difficult because I feel really desperate and badly need to wank off. So I lose my concentration and end up eye-ing up the bloke sitting next to me, until something or someone in the meeting catches my attention again. I have a wank about the bloke that night in bed.
Age: 25+         Location: North west London         

When ever I get an erection in public I try to cover it up by stretching my sweatshirt over it as much as I can. I'm always wondering if other people notice or anything.
Age: 16         Location: Madison         

Most of the time, when I have an erection in public, I just try to cover it with a book or something like that.
Age: 15         Location: Ohio         

Well covering your bits just makes it worse, so basicly just make sure it's facing down then think about something random(not sexual) and it goes pretty quickly.
Age: 16         Location: Uk         

If I do, I try to think about something else to make it go away. Usually it works.
Age: 16         Location: California         

Yea, I just whip it out and start strokin it. Feels damn good when the worlds watchin
Age: 18         Location: New York         

it honestly feels great and turns mme on as long as I'm seated and I tuck it under my waist band
Age: 16         Location: il         

I don't feel much really. Just the need to hide it and continue on. It'll usually die down in a minuet or two.
Age: 18         Location: Ma         

I get extremely embarassed. I try to hide it by putting my hands in my pocket, or pulling my jacket closer down. I'm pretty sure it's noticeable anyway. If I'm alone, I point my penis up and let my pant's waiste line cover it.
Age: 18         Location: missouri         

Ummm can't really jack it so I try to think of other things
Age: 18         Location: New York NY         

Well, at first I feel weird because I think, "Why the hell?" but I don't really take any action because of it... It just stays there. Sometimes I get embarrassed and try to do a math problem in my head, but only if there's a hot girl I'm trying to score.
Age: 17         Location: United States         

I will try and covertly adjust it by using the hands in pocket technique. I'll make sure that no one is looking first of course.
Age: 18         Location: Anywhere         

It all depends on where I am and what I'm doing. At work, I'll stay in my office and not show it off. Other places, I enjoy seeing who looks and what expression they get, so I'll show off the bulge.
Age: 54         Location: Cleveland, OH         

i feel awkward and I tuck it behind the top of my underwear so that no one can tell
Age: 15         Location: Illinois         

When I get hard in public, it is because I am aroused, which I think is a good thing!! Depending on the situation I play with that erection and it is kind of like you are masturbating in public, which is an exciting feeling. If I can't play with it, I push it up, pointing towards my belly button and let the erection subside...
Age: 25         Location: Chicago         

I always feel embarrassed and everything is out in the open when I get an erection in public. All of my friends make fun of the kids they see that have an erection. I always try to cover it up with my books or with a coat or something like that.
Age: 14         Location: United States         

belt boner
Age: 15         Location: NJ         

It makes me feel horny, because usually when I get hard in public it means I'm thinking or seeing something that makes me horny. Sometime I run to the nearest bathroom and do my business.
Age: 15         Location: California         

When I was in my 20s I was nervous about going to nude beaches because I was afraid of getting an erection. In my mind I associated nudity with sex, and it took time to retrain myself. I admired people who didn't have such hang ups. Now I don't mind being naked in public (like in a sauna). However, sometimes I'll sit cross legged to hide the beginnings of a hard-on if my mind strays for a moment.
Age: 52         Location: Seattle         

I just go home a have a wank!
Age: 23         Location: Manchester         

it makes me feel good I like it i try to jack off in public if possible
Age: 15         Location: australia         

It's really awkward. Sometimes (when in school), I try to "push" it down, or I'll just cover up my crotch with my binder. I always feel like everyone around me can tell that I have a boner.
Age: 13         Location: CO         

feels great! I only adjust mine to be comfortable and not bind up with my boxers. I don't draw attention to myself, but I don't get all embarrassed either.
Age: 50         Location: texas usa         

Feels great
Age: 32         Location: USA         

When I get an erection in public, I try to casually cover it by folding my arms in front of me or shove it between my legs.
Age: 17         Location: New Jersey         

its usualy due to an instant attraction> its magical-make me feel alive and wanting.
Age: 54         Location: nc         

Makes me feel embarrassed and really uncomfortable. and I try to hide it as much as I can
Age: 15         Location: il         

I get nervouse that someone is going to see it and I try to conceal it.
Age: 15         Location: Chicago, Illinois         

I usually feel a bit embarrassed, and always have. It isn't a serious problem, but it can be slightly inconvenient. I am of somewhat above overage erect size (particularly length) and since I usually wear boxers, this can sometimes make things rather obvious depending on what kind of pants or shorts I wear. I try not to do anything to make the matter obvious, but generally just carry on about business, taking some slight cautions. When I was younger (such as in junior high) I sometimes tried to hind things (like with my books or such), but that generally only made me look awkward and drew attention as I later realised. At that time I was very self concious about such, and assumed people would notice, and maybe they did, but probably they did not. Now I mostly figure if someone is staring at my crotch, well that is either their problem, or maybe a rather forward sign that they are interested. Either way not really a problem for me.
Age: 26         Location: KY, USA         

yea I do usealy in school... if so and I need to stand um I usealy just put it under my top jock strap. if I'm in the mood u will ask to go the the toilet and have a wank.ive read about how some people have a wank in the bak of the class room under the desk but iver never tryed this... to get caught doing it at school under the desk wouldint go down very well and I dont know how I would explain to my mum/dad
Age: 17         Location: australia         

Never tried to hide my boners, if someone is looking I think they are looking for a reason, I do have to adjust it up. I really like the feeling of flexing it in my jeans, and if I'm leaking I kinda sneak into to my pants and get some on my finger for a quick taste. So Sweeeet.
Age: 28         Location: st. louis MO         

It's inconvenient, if anything, to get an erection in a place like school. Usually, I adjust my penis as discreetly as possible so it's not so prominent.
Age: 16         Location: Montana         

It depends.....If I am just wearing jeans or pants where it is not overly visible then no I don't do anything, However, if it's at the gym or worse in the shower, then yes, I run for the towel to cover up. If I am wearing something where it is visible then I just quickly put my hand down to point it upwards to make it less noticeable.
Age: 30         Location: Ottawa, Canada         

Usually if I get an erection during school or something I try and just cover it up and act like nothing is there. I think I get nervous more than anything, just because I don't want it to be seen.
Age: 18         Location: Arizona         

I feel kinda embarrised, but I just let it go
Age: 15         Location: Michigan         

Well, I have them a lot, so I don't really notice them
Age: 13         Location: california         

I have gotten a hardon in public quite a few times and as I've gotten older I've learned to just enjoy it, feeling the fabric of my jeans or slacks rubbing against the skin of my erect penis. It's like a quickie, enjoyable dirty little secret that mother nature provides at sometimes the most inopportune moments.
Age: 49         Location: NJ         

If I get an erection in public, I don't feel that embarrassed. It's natural. I just try to sit down as soon as possilble as it makes it much less noticable.
Age: 14         Location: Scotland         

Feels a little bit weird but a little bit exiting, makes you want to go home and finish it off though =/ And I just pull my jacket down to cover, works wonders.
Age: 16         Location: United Kingdom         

Depends on when. Usually, though, I love the feel. If I'm near home or a bathroom, I'll usually slip in for a quickie. If not, I'll arch my back to press my erection against my pants. Feels good.
Age: 17         Location: Ohio         

It makes me feel great, however I do the old boner in the belt technique because not only is it effective but it feels really cool. For those who dont know this technique this is when you get your erection and tuck it between ur waistline(belt) and your stomach and you cover it with your shirt.
Age: 18         Location: Miami , fl         

I obviously feel a lot more self conscious, but I try not to look at it, and I figure, if I don't act like something's weird, other people probably won't notice. However, I was once at a friend's house (a girl) and we were talking about sex and things (not with each other, we're just friends), and I did get an erection. Unfortunately, I was lying down, and had a hole in a very inconvenient part of my trouser leg, and just my head poked out. Luckily, she took it very well, and it is considered just a funny experience.
Age: 17         Location: England         

When I get an erection in public and if I'm on my own I will have a wank. Also if I get a boner in public and I walk past a hot looking woman I will pretend it accidently flops out my trousers to see what there reactionn is. The other day I did this and a 50 yr old woman offered to give me a bj So I went bak to hers and boy did she have some good sucking skill. I'd never jizzed so much.
Age: 15         Location: Hersham, England         

I usually tell my mommy. then she rubs my penis until it goes away.
Age: 12         Location: USA         

When I get one in Public I normally just try to hide it.
Age: 15         Location: IL         

When I get an erection in public, I feel embarressed that someones going to see it and tell the WHOLE world about it!

flip your erection up in your pants facing your belly botton no one can tell
Age: 16         Location: lethbridge         

Waistband it
Age: 16         Location: NY         

It's extremely annoying to me, almost like a burden. Whenever it happens, I just think hat I could be home masturbating. I always try to be covert about it. I'm not one of those people who try one of those dumb tricks to hide it. I just try not to draw attention to myself.
Age: 18         Location: Virginia         

No it just happens,I just go on.
Age: 44         Location: TN         

makes me excited and embarrassed. usually readjust, sometimes rub it though pants
Age: 43         Location: ca, us         

I'm not one to really freak out over anything like this, it has happened before, and probably will again, eventually. I simply discretely readjust myself and go about my day. I just make sure it's something people won't notice and I'm fine. Very rarely do I feel the need to "Manually" get rid of it, I can usually wait until I get home for that, but every once in awhile I might make a stop by someplace private to satisfy myself. It's nothing to be embarrass about, really.

Age: 19         Location: London, England         

When I get an erection in public it makes me want to pull it out right there and get stroking on it hoping(this is a fantasy) some beautiful girl or 2 will come along and help finish me off
Age: 38         Location: detroit mi         

Depending on where I am, I quite like it. Although I must say it can be embarrassing when it's very obviously erect and another guy notices. I wouldn't say it makes me feel more manly, but in the right mood it feels strangely exciting.
Age: 18         Location: England         

I love to get a erection in public, doesn't happen often though, Last time I got one I went into a public restroom and releived myself into a urinal,if someone came in I would not stop.
Age: 49         Location: calif         

I started getting hard at school for no reason and worried it could be seen and tried to hide it but then I started puttintg it to the side and let it show and watch to see what people would say, I just have to be careful of my clear stuff making my clothes wet, then I need to have a special minute in the restroom!
Age: 14         Location: oregon         

When I get an erection in public it makes me feel a little frustrated. Mainly because you cannot get off right there. Usually I get my mind off of what is the underlying factor to my erection. It usually helps. And if I cannot get my mind off of it. I usually wait until I get home and deal with it in the most appropriate way.
Age: 19         Location: Canada         

It doesn't really bother me any. My penis is kind of small so it doesn't really stand out much.
Age: 14         Location: Indiana         

i will put my hands in the pocket to make it seen like its my hands rather than my penis!
Age: 26         Location: Singapore         

it makes me feel fery awkward and as if everyone knows I have an erection.
Age: 18         Location: las vegas         

if I'm at work sometimes ill go in the bathroom and have a quick jack.
Age: 26         Location: new york         

When that happen to me. I will act normal that nothing happen. It's because if ou think more about it the more people will look at you.
Age: 18         Location: Philippines         

I usually try to hide it, but I wouldn't really care if someone noticed.
Age: 15         Location: somewhere         

Depending on where I am.. if in a crowded area I always hide it... its normally embarrassing especially at school
Age: 16         Location: Sydney Australia         

Well , as anyone not mentally ill I try to hide it , as getting an erection when I get up after a class ends would be very awkward and could lead to the destruction of my social life as I know it
Age: 15         Location: Portugal         

I dont really get embarrassed or anything. My friends dont mind, haha they usually try to get one themselves.
Age: 16         Location: texas         

Like I need to do something about it but I can't
Age: 18         Location: Ny         

I usually only get erections in public when I'm sitting down, which I don't mind. However, if I have to stand up with an erection, I get nervous that people will notice, and I slouch and cover it with my arms a lot. Usually, the nervousness kills my erection quickly.
Age: 20         Location: Texas         

When I get an erection in public I just try to ignore it as much as possible and hope it just goes away, which is sort of hard to do because I have been "well endowed", so my erection does show quite a bit. If it does persist, then I eventually "tuck" and keep going on with my day. I try not to let it bother me.
Age: 15         Location: Colorado         

Usually when I get an erection I public I'll feel somewhat awkward. I don't really do anything about it kind of just let it go away. There's been a few times where I've taken care of it before. I was in a steam room at a gym, of course when you in a steam room your usually nude. I got an erection randomly and it was empty in the room so I decided to masturbate right there. I ejaculated in the drain so nobody knew!
Age: 17         Location: NH         

In public it makes me feel awkward, I usually try to act the same around others and the erection usually subsides.And when it does I go on normally without thought of someone seeing it.
Age: 15         Location: California         

I feel embarrased when I get a erection in public. I usually try to hide it but it's 6 3/4" so it's really hard to hide.
Age: 16         Location: California         

you know, at first it is really awkward but then after you get used to it happening like so commonly you just get used to it, but you have to hide it anyway, for me the best way is to put your penis's head looking up and make your boxer's band hold it, that way it won be noticed as much as it would without doing that. I call it the choker! =P
Age: 15         Location: NY, USA         

Happy but at the same tine irritated because of it.
Age: 17         Location: Philippines         

When I get an erection in public, I feel as if people will notice and laugh because you don't normally walk down the street and see some random dude with a erection. What I do is if that happens, I either stand and wait till it goes away or ill put my hand in my pocket and hold it down while walking and then when I feel that it's gone then I go back to like nothing has happened.
Age: 16         Location: San Marcos         

It makes ma feel excited and some times I will start stroking secretly on site or go some where private you kno
Age: 16         Location: akron ohio         

i freek out look red and hide almost or took my pernis up so it dosnt show
Age: 21         Location: nowhere         

I almost never get unwanted public erections anymore since I'm 48. It takes something REALLY novel to do that to me now. And when it does happen, it's usually just the initial stirrings, not enough to be noticeable. Whenever it DOES happen, though, it does thrill me since it's such a rare occurrence now. It reminds me of when I was 15! So I just enjoy the tingle for the few seconds it lasts. Then I get my mind off it and it goes away before anybody even has time to notice it. (This all is not to imply I have any trouble getting erections when I DO want them. Quite the contrary!)
Age: 48         Location: AZ         

embarrassed but turned on.
Age: 15         Location: USA         

I'm proud
Age: 13         Location: US         

It doesn't happen as often now as it did when I was a teenager, but when it does I tend to hide it by remaining seated! There are a lot of times I've wanted to do something with it, but never have in public - unless you count driving a car as in public!
Age: 31         Location: UK         

I use to get hard in high school every day third and fifth period no matter what. It was always embarrassing since I'm a bit on the bigger side (8") and wore boxers and it was very noticeable. I usually tried to slide my dick up between my waistband. I've switched to briefs so now when I get a boner I just seam to be much more endowed!
Age: 29         Location: Montana         

at my age I could only wish
Age: 68         Location: CA         

I will jackoff in my car!
Age: 24         Location: birmingham         

i try to put my penis up under the top of my pants to hide it but some times it slips out. It makes me feel embarrassed because if I get called to go up to the board for a school problem, people might see my bulge.
Age: 14         Location: United States         

I have the unfortunate reaction of looking down at that area for a while to try and figure out if anyone can see it or not, and then, once I realize I'm looking down, I have to pretend like I am just keeping my head down. Then I sort of penis my head to one side and look up as if I was just putting it down because I was tired. Then I usually stick my hands in my pockets to cover it up if it really shows.
Age: 16         Location: Carmel, IN         

A little embarrased with strangers, but OK with my male friends, to be honest a little more excited with my friends!
Age: 22         Location: uk         

Actually, it makes me feel great. Love the feeling!
Age: 20         Location: ky         

I get really excited. I'll usually make it somewhat obvious that I have a hard on because I'm pretty well endowed. When I'm done showing off, I wank so that the boner goes away.
Age: 17         Location: America         

i normally tuck it up between my boxers
Age: 13         Location: Ontario         

I usually wear underpants which keeps my penis close to my body so it doesn't show so I don't do anything about it until I can get somewhere private and then have a good play
Age: 45         Location: Bristol UK         

I feel like I'm an animal, that I can't even control a part of my body. I try to get rid of it ASAP or put it in my waistband.
Age: 15         Location: USA         

It makes me feel a little embarrassed. I know it is normal to get them but I do not like it that people can just look and see that you have one, especially with it being winter and myself and most guys know wearing jeans. Normally I will sit down and, with making a scene about it, position it wither up around the waist area or to the side or directilly down depending on how hard I am.
Age: 13         Location: Indiana         

Personally, I don't what everyone else to necessarily know I've got an erection, so if I'm wearing clothing in which it might be more obvious my body language might change to try and hide it. It's worse when your penis is perfectly comfortable until you get an erection and you just want to shove your hand down the front of your pants and re-arrange everything but don't want to be seen to be man-handling yourself in public either. It's odd how we seem to think it's such a big deal at the time, but do we really care if someone has an erection? I remember being in a very busy swimming pool changing room in Italy, queueing with a whole lot of guys waiting to use the showers, and then a guy came out of the showers and walked towards us all with a full erection. He didn't seem bothered in the slightest and no one else seemed to give it a second thought.
Age: 27         Location: UK         

I feel awkward and try to hide it or get rid of it.
Age: 15         Location: Henderson Nevada         

Man, I hate getting a boner in public. I usually get hard in my P.E. class. I feel weird not because I get hard because I know that happens to all my friends but because my dick is so fat. Fatter than the round of a banana. I am only about 4.5 hard but I hate that my dick is so fat because I can never hide it, specially in P/E. Shorts. My thing is the same lenght hard as it is soft so I don't get longer when I get hard becuase my things just hangs there. My friends are cool but they always make fun of me for the fact that it always looks like Im hard when I'm not. I hate when I play soccer for my school because its mainly when my thing just flops and I know everyone notices it.
Age: 12         Location: San Francisco         

Well, its depends on the circumstances, if its in the middle of class, it usually goes away by the end of class. As I have a 5 incher, lets says its a bit easier to manipulate! Sometimes I give them a bit of a rub but never have I and will I have the courage to jerk in public.
Age: 15         Location: United Kingdom         

i jerked of 7 times in a 6 hour period, time number 2 I was standing in front of mirror. the next several times I wacked off using vaseline. when I looked at my mirror, my dried cum would make me hard again and so would go for another 30 minutes or so. wow. each time was terrific, though last shot was watery
Age: 20         Location: nj         

Now (at 24) I do not get many erections in public. When I do I usually just try to shift my clothing as much as possible to conceal said excited member. I remember being very embarrassed about such things during puberty (and once or twice slipping off with a friend to get rid of our erections the fun way--those were the days.) and that I would desperately try to hide my erection whenever it reared its shiny skin-covered purple head.
Age: 24         Location: Indiana         

be sure to put a hole at end of cucumber. this will allow air to escape
Age: 20         Location: nj         

It makes me want to start jackin off right there
Age: 15         Location: Wi         

I love it when I'm alone in public, or with my friends or girlfriend. It makes me feel really horny, I usually scratch it a lot, to make it feel better, or go up and hug my girlfriend from behind. I love the thought of other people seeing my penis. However, when I am in public with my family, I get REALLY embarrassed. Pretty much, I am a total voyeur (isn't that what it's called) I LOVE the thought of jacking off or having sex in public (as long as they are people I don't know)
Age: 14         Location: USA         

pretty pleased with myself and hoping thzt it will last
Age: 84         Location: ashford kent         

I usually only get them sitting down like in class or on the bus and it makes me feel scared that if I have to stand up the budge will be noticable, so I try and think of non sexual things like old saggy boobs or old people banging.
Age: 15         Location: Canada         

Well it's embarrassing for the most part. And it usually only happens on the day after I whack it. Erections for the most part don't feel that great, it's what you do with it that counts! I just try to ignore it and put "it" in a less noticeable place.
Age: 16         Location: Orange,CA         

A little embarresed and Try not to move until it fades.
Age: 12         Location: USA         

Scared that someone will see. I usually try to cover it up with a book or something.
Age: 21         Location: Kentucky         

I often purposely get an erection before going to the store and put on my cock-ring to keep it hard for the next half-hour. I like the feeling of being hard and unable to ejaculate!
Age: 56         Location: USA         

i usually get paranoid and I feel as if everyone sees. And not to brag but when it happens it looks as if my pants are about to bust because I have a huge girth but average length. I always try to tuck it in between my legs
Age: 15         Location: Ohio         

To the first question, I feel very embarassed and try my best to cover it up. All I do to cover it up is slide it in my waistband and carry on with whatever I'm doing
Age: 16         Location: Illinois         

When I get an erection in public how I feel depends on who is around, if a girl I like is around then I normally feel embarrassed and hope noone notices. If that is not the case then I feel fine cause everyone know it happens to everyone occasionally and I do nothing about it and I just let it go away on its own.
Age: 14         Location: WV, United States         

hmmm would wear tight rubber gear. so my penis would show
Age: 20         Location: new jersey         

i use vaseline. sometimes I go for a couple of hours. I just stroke pretty fast. after a while I like to count my strokes against the clock. My right hand and sometimes my left hand. Sometimes I get off the bed and walk around the room in front of mirror---jerking off all the while. I use a lot of vaseline
Age: 20         Location: new jersey         

I get embarrassed. I pull my dick up so that the head sits a little above my belt buckle so I'm not just pointing straight out.
Age: 17         Location: Georgia         

I get the same feeling I've gotten ever since like 8th grade haha I sigh Take a look at who is around me And slowly try to adjust myself to where it doesn't look like a put a cucumber in my pocket <_<
Age: 17         Location: North Carolina         

If I get a boner in public I'm usually really horny and I just want to go jack off. It sucks cause then you got to try and hide it too, or else you're gonna have to take a lot of crap from your friends about it.
Age: 14         Location: Minneapolis, MN         

I don't really care, in most circumstances. I unashamedly adjust myself until I'm comfortable. if a girl notices I bet they either don't mind or it might even turn them on a little. If another guy notices and says anything, id jokingly insult them for being gay around me, just because they looked. I don't look at guys crotches very much, and I don't think anyone that did would be offended by a boner... maybe turned on, though.
Age: 23         Location: Southern Illinois         

This happens to me a lot as a teenager, and I must say it's a love/hate relationship. I always take kindly to the feeling of my penis rubbing against the denim in my jeans after it pokes out of my boxers, but it's always a pain to take the ten seconds for me to silently tuck it into my waistband before excusing myself to the lavatory. And it's always awkward to realize someone may have seen you do it, because they always ask you what you were doing. I think it's just my best friend who knowswhat it was, because I explained it to him after he caught me first, and he has found it successful as well
Age: 13         Location: Aurora, CO         

When I do get and erection in public,I almost always try to hide it,mainly by pushing the head of my penis into my foreskin,which makes it look smaller(I am circumsized but I still have enough foreskin to do this).Sometimes Thinking of an unpleasnt thought helps the erection go away,but I hate it when I have one in public.
Age: 13         Location: Texas         

I usually just hide it in my waist-band.
Age: 16         Location: Detroit         

Depends on what I'm wearing and if it shows off my erection. Tight jeans, track pants and PJs are the worse for showing of my penis when erect. I get scared someone will say something. I stay seated.
Age: 15         Location: Boston         

If I'm with my close guy friends we'll joke about it like "Who's throwing you a bone Zack?" and stuff like that haha. Then depending on the girl I either try to hide it or make it very noticable and impressive.
Age: 13         Location: Atlanta, GA         

It kind of annoys me, but I usually manage to do one quick swipe with my arm...down into my pants, grab dick, then quickly move it up so it's vertical and not horizontal at all to fix it!
Age: 16         Location: Cleveland         

When I get an erection in public I can get pretty embarrassed. I will uually just put my mind to something and not think about it. I'll put penis in my waist to hide it.
Age: 15         Location: Ontario, Canada         

If I start to get erections in public, it makes me embarrassed especially when women are around. To get rid of it I think about things that are disgusting or unpleasant. Also, I make sure to masturbate whenever I get the chance so my sperm doesn't want to get out as bad, causing less erections
Age: 22         Location: Australia         

if I'm standing I sit down then think about having sex for a wile then quickly bring my mind back into reality and it is always worked for me
Age: 16         Location: my house         

I usually will excuse myself, tuck it up under my belt, then go to the bathroom and take care of it.
Age: 20         Location: New Hampshire         

I got one at school today. One of the hottest girls came next to me to trace something on the window and she was rubbing her but on my elbow for about 10 seconds. I just covered it up with my t-shirt.
Age: 14         Location: Australia         

It usually creates an awkward feeling, but at the same time, an extremely pleasurable feeling. I love having people look at me, especially strangers. And I normally just strut around with it.
Age: 17         Location: Ohio         

i would love to masturbate with a friend, but I'm to afraid to ask, and if I was asked I woudl probably say no becausei would think they were testing me. I really want to know how to get around to asking a friend to jack of with me
Age: 16         Location: kitchener         

I guess it never bothers me that much. It has happened alot and I guess I am sort of proud of my manhood and so I am not afraid to show it off.
Age: 15         Location: Birmingham MI         

I haven't had a problem with it before. It's usually easy to hide if you're sitting properly.
Age: 17         Location: Ohio         

If I am wearing jeans, I position it at the zipper, so it doesn't show as much. If I am wearing sweatpants or shorts I'll flip it up into the waistband and cover it with my shirt or jacket.
Age: 15         Location: United States         

If I'm standing up, I bend forward a bit, so my penis is hidden more. if I'm sitting, I lean forward too. but either way I freak out and try to concentrate on something else.
Age: 14         Location: Northeast US         

When I get an erection in public I feel out of place and like I am crazy. I don'tdo anything about it cause I can move my penis so u can't see so I just wait it out.
Age: 17         Location: New York         

I can hide mine pretty well. Once A guy in my grade had a huge one in public. When I pointed it out to him he said, "So what if people see my huge dick?" I simply nodded at him. His penis was not that big by the way.
Age: 13         Location: Minnesota         

of course for teenagers its very common to get erections in school but its always very embarrasing. I dont think I have ever been caught with an erection from a girl, but my buddies catch me regularily.
Age: 16         Location: canada         

One of my biggest fears is that one day I will get caught with am erection in public and it will get misconstrewed as some perverse act. Whenever I get an erection I either find a place to sit or I find a place I can go to "tuck it in."
Age: 15         Location: Michigan, USA         

Some times a little embarrassed, but most of the time it doesn't bother me as its just part of being male. I do nothing if it is not obvious and if it is, I have a sit and cross my legs till it subsides.
Age: 37         Location: Modesto, CA         

It feels really good. And I usually touch it and put it up so people can't see it. Then I imagine how good it is going to feel to go home and Jack off and stick my finger up my asshole.
Age: 19         Location: Hawaii         

my times vary. if I'm watching good porn I could blow my load in 10 min but if I'm using my imagination it takes much longer
Age: 16         Location: kitchener         

Put my hand in my pocket to make it look like the bulge is my hand.
Age: 24         Location: D.C.         

kind of wish the reason the erection occurred noticed and helped to relieve the pressure. But I guess I'm usually embarassed and try to hide it.
Age: 18         Location: PA         

When I was younger, I would sometimes get an erection when seeing a busty girl in a small bikini on the beach or poolside. I would always be very embarrassed and try to hide the evidence with a towel or leave the area. On a few other occasions, whenever I would have an erection in public, I would try to hide as not to offend anyone. However, I would have a much different experience when I was older and going to college. I did not have a car, so I would walk to the only nearby store that sold men's magazines. They had a well stocked newsstand in a discreet location near the back of the store. Each month, I would purchase a particular busty magazine to read while I was masturbating. Knowing that I would sometimes get an erection during my magazine shopping, I would visit the store during early mornings when no other customers were around and I could quickly make my purchase. I was able to make my purchases for several months without incident. One month, I noticed an attractive woman in her 30's had replaced the older male owner behind the sales counter. At the newsstand, I sprung an erection which I could not lose and became panicked. I hurried for the exit just as the woman called out "Thanks you, come again soon!" Three days later, I gathered my nerve and returned to the store. As I entered, the same woman clerk smiled and said "Welcome back - good to see you again!" Once again, I developed a large erection at the newsstand. Again I was panicked and knew that this time I would have to complete my purchase. Fortunately, there was no one else in the store. I approached the counter with the magazine in front of me, yet lost my "cover" when I had to pay for it. My erection was now in full view. The sales clerk slowly processed my purchase, all the while looking back at me. Sensing my anxiety, the she smiled and said "Sam (the owner) tells me that you are a regular magazine purchaser ..". I stammered "yes, every month" She went on to say "Well, I understand your interest and I can see that you really enjoy your reading. There's no need to feel shy or embarrassed with your magazine purchases here". I had a great sense of relief and we both lightly laughed. She introduced herself as "Janice" and she bid me goodbye and said "Enjoy your reading, and I look forward to seeing you again next month, Jack". Every month, I would visit Janice at the store. I learned to relax and enjoy my visit. Often from viewing of the magazines, I would get an erection and then make my way to the counter when the store was empty of other customers. Janice would always smile knowingly and each time tell me to “enjoy my reading”. This was the first time when I felt comfortable with an erection in public which I did not hide until I left the store. My magazine purchases with Janice went on for about 2 years. Sadly, one day her husband was transferred to another city and Janice left the store. I am always grateful to Janice for helping me accept and better enjoy my masturbation hobby. This was in the days before the Internet. Fortunately, jackinworld now fulfills this information need !
Age: 44         Location: Canada         

I will usually bend over and pretend I'm a hunchback or stay seated because when I have one I can't usually get rid of it and as a hunchback it keeps it in, In the past I have been teased fir having a rager so I do what I can to avoid people noticing
Age: 12         Location: California         

If I'm wearing boxers or going commando, it makes me feel embarrassed and I try to hide it - and if I'm going commando it might hurt a little because of the friction against the fabric, since I am uncircumcised and the head of my penis get fully exposed. If I'm wearing briefs I usually don't mind and try to enjoy them as much as I can, making them last longer and sometimes even rubbing my backpack against my erected penis
Age: 26         Location: Argentina         

Because I'm not a teenager anymore with raging hormones, when I get an erection in public its because I am very, very turned on. Its a bit awkward cause I want to hide it, but at the same time I just want to hump anything that moves.... its a really weird feeling.
Age: 23         Location: Baltimore         

the first thing I do is figure out how to get my erection in my waistband. second is will anyone or has anyone seen me. I always wear athletic shorts or sweat pants and being the high schooler I am, I get random ones all the time during school simply cause I get bored and put my head down. my advice.. wear pants with some kind of fit and pay attention in class. it helps stop those unwanted erections
Age: 15         Location: Fort Wayne, Indiana         

I sit down. When its super hard I just got to blow it so I get up go somewhere private and just blow it out. That Jerkin is the best you will ever had.
Age: 17         Location: The South         

It depends on where I am. If I am at school, I get pretty self-concious and try to hide it, but if I am hanging around with my friends, I don't really care.
Age: 16         Location: WI         

I get erections in public a lot. Almost every time I'm a little embarrassed because I don't want anyone to see them. If I'm at school I usually just hide it with a textbook until it goes away. Other places I'll usually try to make it stick straight up so it's facing my belly button so it won't be as obvious. Though sometimes I do get the urge to masturbate and will wait for the first opportunity I can get to do so.
Age: 16         Location: Virginia         

When I get an erection in public, usually I get embarrassed, but I usually dont really do anythng about it except sometimes adjusting clothing to make it less noticeable.
Age: 15         Location: montana         

I feel fairly awkward and embarrassed depending on the situation. The funny thing is that I didn't really get unwanted erections until after puberty. I try to shift my penis discreetly in my pants to make it look less visable. Wearing boxer briefs don't hurt either
Age: 24         Location: Vancouver, Canada         

embarrased, I have to quickly put my hands down and put it in my waist band, so its hidden, quite effective, it makes you feel like your a prevert or something if someone would see you, I don't know what else to say
Age: 15         Location: Australia         

It gives me a little daring rush as if I would take care of it then and there but then I get embarrassed thinking that someone else might have noticed. I just try to position my self so nobody can see it.
Age: 18         Location: VA         

i hate it! I cover it up!
Age: 14         Location: NZ         

For the most part it makes me feel good. I like the feeling of how it rubs my boxers. I am a non socialite person so the biggest reason that I have to leave my home is for school or work. I don't do much to draw attention to it, so I won't jump up and down and making peacock calls. For the most part I just ignore it, so it will go away. If it has been a while since I've masturbated, I may start thinking about different things that keep the erection longer.
Age: 21         Location: Indiana         

I lean my upper body forward so the space between the penis and the pants is greater. therefore it doesnt show. Boy I would love to just lean back and have a nice stick sticking out of my pants but I cant, so I try my hardest to cover it up. When I am alone though, it hangs straight through my pants and then I get tempted to jack off
Age: 14         Location: Buffalo         

I really hate it when I get one in class. I try to hide it as much a possible, and I pray that I don't have to go to the front of the class. I like the feeling of it on my leg, though.
Age: 15         Location: New England         

I don't do much about it I guess. What can ya do??
Age: 19         Location: Montreal         

It's usually in school when my mind wanders. I just put y binder on my lap.
Age: 15         Location: Mesa, Arizona         

It feels good.I usually don't do anything about it right away but when I get to a secure place or at home I masturbate.
Age: 25         Location: Chicago         

I usually tuck it under my belt to keep it from making a tent in my denims. But if it's a big throbbing monster I'll go to the nearest bathroom and go crazy in the stall.
Age: 15         Location: Wisconsin         

I feel slightly embarrassed just because of the view society has on sex, so I would be viewed as a pervert. I just try to sit down or get a diiferent image in my head till it goes away.
Age: 15         Location: Texas         

Some of the time I feel slightly embarressed but I'm proud to be a male, I'm proud to have a penis and I'm doubly proud to get erections and in those times I stick my boner to the world and tell everyone to suck it. Simon
Age: 18         Location: Kent, UK         

It depends. If my penis is facing down where it can make an obvious tent in the thigh part of my pants, then I'll try and cover it up with a bookbag or something. But if it's up between my belly and pants, then I'll just leave it
Age: 17         Location: New Jersey         

If I have time, I get in a bathroom and jack off into the toilet, or sometimes on the wallif the place is a dump anyways... haha. But I find masturbating in a place you know is out of the normal is a total turn on.
Age: 16         Location: NYC         

Well obviously it is embarassing but I don't usualy get erections if front of people so no one sees it and I enjoy it until it foes away.
Age: 15         Location: Minnesota         

Try my best to hid it. Usually put my hands in the pocket of a jacket or sweater if I'm wearing one to try to cover the erection. Could be pretty embarrassing :[
Age: 16         Location: NJ         

i prefer not to expose my self while am hard. I feel that everyone is looking at me especially at my dick . so I just stay where I am and wait till I'm soft.
Age: 15         Location: spain         

I usually ignore it or don't even notice it. I tend to wear briefs/boxer briefs and jeans, so it's not noticeable and easily restrained. Although, one time I was in a hot-tub in a hotel at the beach and I just took care of it under the water. No one noticed (even if there were about 4 other people in it) because the water was so bubbly and frothy.
Age: 15/almost 16         Location: Seattle Washington         

It mostly depends on what I'm wearing. I usually wear jeans, so the erection tends to get "blocked" by the thick fabric, and it can be quite uncomfortable because I absolutely need to adjust it with my hand - something I wouldn't suggest you to do in public. Other times I'm lucky and nothing blocks the erection, so my penis can point up freely and quite unnoticed, making me feel both proud and naughty at the same time. I remember the time when I had an erection in the locker room at the gym, and my pants kind of stood by themselves - with a little "help" from my little friend, of course! It felt funny, plus nobody was watching so I didn't have to hide it; the feeling of getting an erection in public is great, because you can enjoy an erection with a silly smile on your face going completely unnoticed
Age: 21         Location: Italy         

although the sensations can be pleasant, I rarely get "them" in public - which is probably a good thing.
Age: 55         Location: california         

I feel horny and embarrassed at the same time, I have a big penis so if I have a boner everybody knows it sticks straight out.
Age: 15         Location: Australia         

I'm usually wearing jocks so they help keep it un-noticed, it makes me feel awkward at first if I'm near a lot of people. If I'm pretty much alone then I don't mind at all and act if nothing has happened.
Age: 19         Location: AUS         

It depends on what I'm wearing and what the situation is. If I'm wearing briefs or boxerbriefs, or I'm wearing boxers and am sitting down at a table or something, I don't mind all that much because nobody should be able to see it. If I'm wearing boxers and standing up, on the other hand, it gets a little embarrasing, so I try to face away from people.
Age: 17         Location: South Australia, Australia         

i wish I had a friend that I can masturbate with am 63 old and I still love it
Age: 63         Location: savanaah         

Most of the time when I get erections in public, mostly girls are present so to avoid any embarrassment what I do is move my leg forward so to hid the erection, and luckily I'm always wearing daddy's shirt.... I'm still a baby but having 6 inches one.
Age: 14         Location: Philippines         

I'm always getting an erection in public! If I see someone I think is really hot I usually visualise what it would be like to have sex with them. I try my hardest to hide it from people and if there is somewhere I can go to jack off at that moment then I usually do! I'm horny 95% of the time anyway!
Age: 15         Location: UK         

I don't get these as often now at 31 as I did from about 12-25. Still, I usually enjoy it when it happens. I am of average-to-small size in the penis department, and do not wear sweatpants in public, so it helps that it is probably unnoticeable to others. It can be uncomfortable at times b/c I just want to take my dick and stroke it when its hard, but I really like the feeling of hardness in my pants...a throbbing, warm penis reminds me of my manhood and I imagine what it would be like to just drop trou' and stroke right there. Of course that's a fantasy and I might just end up just taking care of biz in the bathroom (stall usually). If I cannot do that, I try to play a little through my pants by way of hands under a table or hand in pocket. Rarely will I allow myself to climax in my pants b/c it feels nasty shortly afterward and I'm afraid it will be obvious than I am in the process of coming. Sometimes I inadvertently notice a guy in gym shorts whose dick appears on the verge of attention and while quickly looking away wonder how he deals with the issue of semi-public hardness.
Age: 31         Location: PA         

my penis is roughly 11 inches, the first time a partner sees it they are amazed and turned on right away, but when they go down on it they have to stop because it chokes them and then I can only put about three maybe four inches in before they say stop, id rather have my dick 7 to 8 inches nothing more so I can actually give a girl a nice pounding =]
Age: 19         Location: az         

It depends on where I am. If I'm somewhere that "doing something about it" isn't really acceptable or possible, then I just kinda cross my legs or something until it goes down. If I'm somewhere that I can go to a bathroom or I know I'm on my way back to my place, then I will masturbate to have it go away. For instance, I was in my university's library about a week ago on a Sunday, and it was pretty empty. I was sitting at a carrel studying when I got an erection and got quite horny. I scooted my chair all the way up to the desk, unzipped my fly, got my penis out and over the next 15 minutes proceeded to stroke myself until I orgasmed. It felt wonderful and I didn't get caught. Then I just went back to my studying.
Age: 24         Location: Indiana         

usuali nut very good so I think about school to make it go dovn
Age: 13         Location: Ljubljana         

awkward.. I feel like I'm intruding others space. I use compression pants to hold it in and put it in my pants - I 90& of the time wear tie up pants so it works for me. usually I just hide it or go somewhere to masturbate - after that I let my boner pass and continue the daily life.
Age: 15         Location: australia         

Embarrassed! - its hard to hide my massive erection, I tend to stay sitting and not participate in anything til its gone
Age: 17         Location: Australia         

Depending on the circumstances, it either makes me really horny or indifferent. If I am in a situation that having sexual thoughts would be considered horrible, I try not to think about it and it eventually just goes away. In the mean time I make sure it's not noticeable. If there are no children around and it's not a terribly wrong situation to have an erection in, I sort of flaunt it. Not obviously, but I don't try to hide it so much. I mostly wear jeans and good fitting briefs so it's just a little extra bulge rather than actually sticking out.
Age: 16         Location: Seattle         

I get hornier, though I still try to make sure no one notices
Age: 16         Location: NY         

I don't really have to do anything, I'm not exactly big down there. Only about 4 inches fully erect.
Age: 14         Location: Indiana         

For a long time it was simply potentially embarrassing and uncomfortable. As I entered college the reduced frequency made erections in public a bit of a thrill. I find myself wondering if any of my classmates can tell and reveling a bit in the sensation of being so aroused in a school setting.
Age: 21         Location: Detroit, MI         

I try and think of "un-sexy" things, like toothpicks, fat hamsters, bookcases, etc.
Age: 13         Location: Washington         

when I get an erection in public and its usually in class when I have to ask the teacher a question so I will just get up and walk to there desk, but it feels like everyone's eyes are on you cause they no u have an erection, when I sit back down it will just go away, then when I get home that night I am extremely horny
Age: 18         Location: morill nebraska         

I often get erections in public, most of the time it is at really akward times, such as 2 minutes before a lecture is due to finish, or when a bus arrives at my stop (I have taken a bus in years) If its a convenient time, such as the middle or the start of a lecture, I can either leave it go down on its own, or try to descretely go for a 'toilet break' to get rid of it. If it is at an awkward time, I generally try to hide it while I'm walking by carrying a coat over my arm infront of me, or if I have a bag I'll put that infront of me
Age: 20         Location: Uk         

It makes me feel awkward in first place. But I'll try to pretend nothing is happening down there although it may be obvious.
Age: 26         Location: Asia         

It's not usually a problem anymore, but when I was a teenager I would constantly get erections wherever, whenever. It didn't bother me unless it was really obvious with a lot of people around, and I usually just tucked it under my waistband.
Age: 53         Location: Idaho         

it makes me feel kind of akward but I normally wear baggy pants so people dont notice it and I just wait to get home to whack it
Age: 16         Location: california         

I am not ashamed, but preferably I like it when no one see's. Most often when I get a public erection it is on the bus to school in the morning (a city bus). And as to cover it my legs are already curled up onto my seat and my bag is on my lap so nothing else is needed to cover me. I ehjoy the vibrations of the bus on my penis and allow them to distract me until just before my stop were I go flat and get off.
Age: 15         Location: Quebec (english exchange trip)         

I rarely get erections in public; usually only at rare times during school when I'm sitting down. In that case, I just put it down one of my pants legs or fold it up under my belt. I've been really lucky as never to have gotten one in any public places, or in other embarrassing locations. I would be very embarrassed and try to hide it as much as possible. It turns me on to think of erections in public, but I think the embarrassment from having one would counter any good feelings obtained from it.
Age: 16         Location: Oregon         

In my case when it happens more often is on a bus while seated. It's not that much of a problem if I can get it covered with a bag or while carrying a jacket, but I've got to keep in mind that I have to focus on other things to get it down when I'm soon to reach my bus stop.
Age: 24         Location: Costa Rica         

I kind of push on it in my pants, which feels awesome, and when I have to walk somewhere I just kind of inconspicuously point it straight down my pant leg so no one can see it. I get really horny because I think people can see it.
Age: 16         Location: Ohio         

I get embarassed obviously. My hard penis sticks out pretty far so it's hard to hide. Its happend a few times in public when I just have to find a spot to take care of it.
Age: 27         Location: USA         

It makes me feel like I am going to be humiliated very soon. I usually make my buddy point upwards so he is less noticeable. And then I will try think of other stuff so it goes away. (i.e. try to translate signs/posters/etc... into French)
Age: 15         Location: Ontario         

When I get one in public, I try to just ignore it, or if it is really raging, I attempt to shift it into my belt or off to the side. I always feel that it is more noticeable if you look like you've got one and it's bugging you. So I tend to stay neutral about it.
Age: 18         Location: Missouri         

It sometimes feels goog,while other times it makes me feel embarrassed. I usually don't do anything about it. I just leave it alone.
Age: 15         Location: oklahoma         

I dont feel any diffrent, its normal. Do I do anything about it? Sometimes ill play with it, sometimes ill stroke it or just rub. But if I get turned on enough I have no problem going to the bathroom and finishing it myself.
Age: 13         Location: Oklahoma         

i wear briefs and just point my boner stright up and try to forget about it.
Age: 14         Location: CT         

Every time I get a boner, I want to get rid of it. The worst is when I'm in my wrestling singlet and get one because those are impossible to hide and then I want to jerk off to make it go away. It's even worse when we shower after practice and I get hard looking at other guy's packages. I don't mind getting a boner when I'm by myself because I can handle that, but I have never had one in public that didn't make me really embarrassed.
Age: 13         Location: IA         

I don't get erections in public nearly as often now as when I did as a teenager, and what a complete nuisance it is! Usually it's in reaction to someone I'd best not get aroused by, and I find it uncomfortable at best, acutely embarrassing at worst. I usually find some excuse to re-arrange myself - dig out my wallet and pretend to check what's in it, stuff like that. After the teen years I started masturbating more regularly, and that seems to have cut down on the amount of unwanted erections
Age: 20         Location: England         

I use the old "tuck it in you belt" trick. It doesnt draw to much attention andit works well.
Age: 15         Location: Wisconsin         

Kind of embarrassed because it only seems to happens when I'm in school. Usually I tuck it into my waist line so its barely visible.
Age: 14         Location: Aberdeen, SD         

This seems to happen to me at 3 definite times during the day. The first is about halfway through my math class at about 9:20. Later at study hall at about 12:20, and last at history at 2:40. I don't know why this is, but when it does happen, I usually just push it off to one side of my pants, parallel to one of my legs. it also happens sometimes throughout the rest of the day but I do the same thing.
Age: 13         Location: nasville, TN         

Feel horny and I re-position my penis in my pants. Sometimes I will rub my penis until I ejaculate. This usually brings my erection down until I get home and masturbate again in my room.
Age: 13         Location: Canada         

I personally believe that getting an erection in public is not a big deal. I usually don't worry about what people think, its a natural thing that we can't comepletely control. If people think you're perverted for getting one, they can think what they want. Usually I just try and not think or do anything about it, because if I try to fix it, it just draws attention to yourself. My advice: Don't worry about it, just go with it. It'll go away soon, as long as you arent staring at a hot chick!
Age: 15         Location: U.S.A.         

OMG.I always get erections in public either I just let it go down or ask the teacher to go the bathroom to rub a quick one out so it won't bother me..I ussually get them in english class at the end of the day.
Age: 13         Location: pennsylvania         

I often feel uncomfortable at first because I know that I will need to "hide" it soon enough. Normally I will hold it under my leg until I get a chance to sneak it up and away. The only bad thing is if I cannot get it up with one movement and I need to readjust my pants multiple times.
Age: 22         Location: USA         

it depends WHERE in public I am, if I am w/ my Girlfriend I don't really care .we can find some place quiet where she can work on my penis with her hands.
Age: 43         Location: maine         

When I get hard in public it depends on the situation how I feel. For example while undressing at the gym for a shower I occasionally get hard and I'm so embarrassed so I cover up with a towel, its not that I want to masturbate or have sex for some reason after a hard work out I get hard. But if I'm in the office or at school and I get one I try to not give it any attention because if I do I get so hard past a point of no return.
Age: 21         Location: las vegas,nv         

at school it makes you scared because someone might catch u and u get bullied for it
Age: 15         Location: manchester         

this happens to me loads.i seem to get turned on by almost anything, but usually fit girls when I'm at school. it doesn't really make me feel anything in particular, except horny. I usually end up sneaking off to the toilets for a quick wank. a couple of times, I've tossed off under the desk though.this one time at school, I ended up sitting next to this really hot girl. my penis is seven and half inches long when erect and I wouldn't really say its a problem, but I suppose the 'down side' is that its very difficult to hide when hard. anyway this girls noticed that i'd developed a hard on, probably because I was rubbing myself a fair bit, and started talking to me. after a little while, she slipped her hand under the desk and started rubbing it for me. it was completely amazing. I didn't expect it, and I shot my load in about 20 seconds. I don't really see her that often now, but when I do, she just smiles at me. this happened about a month ago now, and every wank I've had since, I've thought of her. isn't life good.
Age: 15         Location: uk         

While the days of constantly having unwanted hard ons in my high school and middle school years are over, the occasional public erection is still sometimes a problem, when I was younger this was a very embarassing, but these days the only emotional reaction I might have is annoyance. Plus there is a side of me that wants people to notice the bulge in my pants. If I do decide to do anything about it I usually try to be standing to allow the blood to flow out of it and sometimes strap my penis up with the waist line of my briefs and pants and hid the tip by covering it with my shirt
Age: 23         Location: Washington         

The only public place I really get erections in is school. Classes are boring, so my mind wanders and I get erections from thinking about sexy stuff. I don't really "feel" a certain way when I get them, it's just an erection, and I'm sitting down so no one notices or anything. As soon as I realize I'm getting a boner I will usually just sneakily push it upwards against my jeans.
Age: 14         Location: Virginia         

feels great. do nothing. I like it when people look at my bulge. I often wear jeans that accentuate it.
Age: 30         Location: canada         

I'm one of the lucky ones I guess. I rarely get erections in public and when I do, it kind of creeps down my leg so it isn't seen by anyone.
Age: 15         Location: UK         

I have had several erections in public and enjoy them. I sometimes just walk around with it, other tomes I've found a place to go do a quicky and get rid of it.
Age: 24         Location: Louisiana         

i dont care because people dont notice, sometimes I even make use of my erection in public i prefer getting erections with my friends and hot people cause thats ok and plus my friends like seeing my erection
Age: 14         Location: Scotland,UK         

I rarely get erections in public anymore. When I was younger, especially in school, if I had to get up and walk around I'd pull my hoodie down as far as I could and hunch forward to hide any bulge. Ive noticed now that when wearing your average loose-fitting jeans they allow enough space so that your erection isn't noticeable to other people and that you're classmates don't really stare at your crotch all day hoping to catch you!
Age: 17         Location: VA, USA         

Ahh yes, the old randomerection. It's a hassle in my oppinion. I hate getting them when I'm standing up the most. If I can somehow manage too I usually try to tuck it into my waistband cu it totally hides it and feels good on the head of my penis.
Age: 15         Location: New Jersey         

I whip it out and shove in a hot girls mouth
Age: 12         Location: Your ASSHOLE         

its so embarrasing. I hide myself by putting on a jacket or sitting down somewhere. if I'm at school I use a binder.
Age: 14         Location: georgia         

Getting an erection in public makes me feel pretty exposed. I don't mind it, but I'm sure most other people wouldn't like to see me all excited and such. I try to hide it as best as I can, like holding it to the side with my hand in my pocket or pointing it up in my pants. Both work pretty nice...
Age: 15         Location: USA         

When I get an erection in public, I don't let it bother me for two reasons. 1) It's a completely natural occurance that happens to all guys, and is rarely as obvious to others as it would seem to you. 2) Thinking about it only makes it last longer, prolonging any embarassment or discomfort. That said, the hand/fist in pocket is probably my preferred way to disguise a particularly strong one.
Age: 24         Location: New York, NY         

If it's a bit obvious then I will probably cover it up, maybe with my bag, or just by pulling my coat more closed. I don't really feel embarrassed about it - after all it's completely natural, and (often) involuntary response. If anything has provoked the erection, then I deal with that thought later in the privacy of my own home!
Age: 28         Location: London         

Well if it is really big I try to find a bathroom but if it is small I just ignore it.
Age: 15         Location: USA         

I really try to hide it, especially when in school. I would get really embarrassed if anyone saw it. I'll usually tuck it into the waistband of my boxers and shield it with my binders when walking in the halls.
Age: 16         Location: NY         

I usually just tuck it up in the waistband of my pants. I try to be as smooth as I can about it, but I always end up slightly embarassed whether anyone notices or not.
Age: 19         Location: Massachusetts         

Most of the time I just try to hide it by quickly turning it straight up. That way it's hidden behind the zipper of my pants. It's really embarrassing when I'm in a public restroom and get an erection out in the open around all of those men. In those cases, I normally go into a stall in the restroom and masturbate to take care of it.
Age: 20         Location: Tennessee         

Usually it makes me feel uncomfortable, but after a while if it stays up I really feel the need to masturbate.
Age: 14         Location: California         

Its usually pretty uncomfortable, not becuase I am in public but becuase I am always wearing jeans, and boxers and it is constantly rubbing against them. :/ But rather then notihng uncomfortable becuase other people are around.
Age: 14         Location: South Carolina         

I feel somewhat unconscious, but not embarassed because I know that no one can tell. I usually try to adjust it so that it's sticking straight up and not down or to the left/right. If I can't do so without being noticed I just go to the bathroom and adjust myself in the stall.
Age: 17         Location: Ohio         

ts the most embarasing time for me, especialy since I'm a freshman, and I have to do presentations for my proffesor, and there is a really hot chick that sits in the front row...so awkward.
Age: 19         Location: california         

This mostly happens in school, so I'm sitting down and can easily hide it. I only start to feel self-conscious when I have to stand up and walk somewhere, usually to my next class. I try to not care about it, but for some reason, I can never stop thinking that someone will notice. (Not that they would say anything, but the fact that they could possibly know would bother me somehow.) Other than in school, this rarely happens to me, or I just don't notice it when it does.
Age: 17         Location: Ney York         

It makes me feel kinda funny but I'm normaly next to a realy hot girl when it happens and we both look down and she just giggles and I need an ice breaker otherwise we sit their in silence anuly ideas??8
Age: 15         Location: USA         

I get really horny when it happens at school so I rip off my pants and start fapping infront of the whole class then I jizz all over the white board. It used to be a chalk board :D
Age: 24         Location: Ohio         

If I get a boner around my family, I try to hide it. If I get a boner around friends or girls I tell them and we laugh. (only the girls who are cool about it)
Age: 13         Location: Canada         

I feel like the whole world can see. At school I am very self conscious, and usually put on a sweater.
Age: 16         Location: Pennsylvania         

It depends. If I'm sitting in my desk at school, I can discreetly put my hand in my pocket and rub my erection. However, if I'm standing up it becomes more visible and I do my best to hide it.
Age: 15         Location: Cheyenne, WY         

I feel paranoid like someone is gonna notice I have one.When I get one I just try to arrange it as comfortably as possible and hope it calms down.
Age: 16         Location: Miami         

I dont ever get one while standing up but I might when I'm sitting in class or something and my mind starts to wander. I usually just try to avoid standing up
Age: 17         Location: Illinois         

it is exciting and I just let it stick out
Age: 13         Location: NJ         

Its really, really annoying when I get an erection in public. I will be sitting in class (which is very boring right now) and I will get an erection at my desk. No one notices or anything, but I still feel embarassed. I think of something to turn me off in order to get it to go down.
Age: 18         Location: Seattle, Washington         

When this things happened to me I just carry on with what I am doing as long as I am comfortable. Bottom line, it is only me who can feel it.
Age: 30         Location: uk         

Erections in public are annoying. They are unneccesary. I tuck it up into the waist band to hide the erection because they make things akward in public
Age: 16         Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada         

I have had an erection when I have been in an adult book store, I was not embarrassed but actually proud of it. Especially if the clerk was a female. Noticing how she would at times stare at crotch, would actually make me harder and allow her view my erect state
Age: 55         Location: North Carolina         

Getting an erection in public causes no emotion in me, only the desire to appropriately hide it. If I get an erection at the beach, I just lay on my stomach in the sand. If I get an erection in the locker room showers I don't really worry about it (hey...we all know it happens to the best of us) but I finish my shower quickly and get dressed. If I get an erection just randomly walking around in public, I'll put my hands in my pockets to hold my penis down (since I wear boxers). In general, I don't worry about it...I just try to not be noticed.
Age: 29         Location: Maryland         

It makes me feel awkward and exposed, almost like I'm naked. I used to try and conceal it but now I walk like I don't have one. It makes it easier to manage.
Age: 19         Location: US         

It doesnt happen nearly as much as it used to, but on the rare occasion that it does happen, I strap it up with the elastic of my undies, basically hides it as what ever top I'm wearing at the time covers it well. As for how I feel, I dont feel embarrased about it anymore, I just ignore it.
Age: 19         Location: Sydney, Australia         

Makes me feel happy and proud to show it off if a woman happens to look.
Age: 45         Location: Ga         

When that happened (or happens to me), I just hunch over a bit or pretend like I need to pick something off the ground. That usually gives me enough time to calm the situation.
Age: 19         Location: USA         

I don't really think its appropriate to have a massive hard on in public ya know, there is little kids and stuff. Plus, who knows, ya might poke an eye out.

It's obviously embarassing. I usually put my hands in my pockets and tuck out my shirt to make it not obvious. I always wear tight briefs and they are really helpful.

It embarasses me and makes me feel uncomfortable - afraid that people will notice and comment.

Hide it
Age: 17         Location: illinois         

I just push it down and go on doing what I was doing.
Age: 70         Location: TX         

well I try to make them not look obvious its embarrasing
Age: 14         Location: america         

Usually, I just try to hide it and think about other things. But thats mostly because it comes at bad times. I try sitting, secretly pushing it more hidden, etc. It works most of the time.
Age: 15         Location: Philippines         

makes me feel alive, I do try to hide it by putting my back across my massive bulge
Age: 23         Location: Sydney         

when I get an erection in public I usually hide it under my hoody.. kids these days judge too much so its best not to let it be noticed. but its normal to get them haha I've seen kids in gym get bones from watching the girls do the warmups haha
Age: 16         Location: colorado         

It makes me feel bad like why did I get this all of the sudden for no reason and then after you think of other things it just goes away
Age: 16         Location: Texas         

When I develop an erection in public, I feel a little self conscious. I try not to worry about it due to the clothes I wear are not the kind that will really show. (I don't wear tight pants) as far as what to do? That's when you dwell on all the "other things" you do in life. Mowing the lawn, tasks at work, rubbing your grandma's feet..etc. That normally does the trick.
Age: 31         Location: Southern California (Ventura county)         

my ex girlfriends underwear she gave me
Age: 18         Location: tn         

It makes me feel alive and joyous. This only happens if something new is happening in my life (socially or independently) and I am sitting down. So, I just cross hands over lap or put my ankle on my knee to move it.
Age: 22         Location: US         

i just find a place to sit down or I run to my destination
Age: 12         Location: Michigan         

Getting an erection in public makes me feel awkward and a sense of embarrisment that someone might notice, this often happens several times a day at school to me. What I do is slip my dick in my waistband this seems to hide it pretty well.
Age: 16         Location: Jackson Michigan         

When I have an erection in public, I feel somewhat proud about it. I tend to just wear it around like a medal, considering that I know that I might not have the luck of being able to do that in the future.
Age: 17         Location: Ohio         

It can be a little embarrassing at first, but once that passes it's kind of a turn on. Not for it to be seen, just to know that it's there.
Age: 18         Location: Michigan         

When I get an erection in public, I can feel comfortable, or uncomfortable. If its noticable, like when I wear basketball shorts, and I'm in school P.E, then I feel uncomfortable. But for some reason, if I get an erection in the loker room, its fine, I don't mnd if other guys take notice, I only feel uncomfortable when girls can see it.
Age: 17         Location: California         

When I was younger, I was very self-conscience about it. I had lots of spontaneous hard-ons and I wore briefs for that very reason to keep them under wraps. I finally learned how to control my penis when I was around 18 and switched to the wonderful freedom of boxers. Of course, one caveat is that if my penis does get hard, he sticks straight out, which can be quite embarrassing. If I can't get him to go down, I usually run into the bathroom for a quick jack and that takes care of it.
Age: 23         Location: Illinois         

There was one occasion I experienced a massive erection while in a public restroom with urinals somewhat close together and no barrier. Although I'm straight and happily married; at that time I cannot hold myself getting aroused because a gentleman beside me literally exposed his long, huge dick fully erect and started stroking that led to true masturbation. In addition, he is extremely attractive and good-looking. So at that point, I gently stroke myself and in no time followed with a good load. It's my very first time to perform the act of jacking-off in public. It was extremely pleasing but at the same token I experienced some ambivalent feeling afterwards. No active engagement though whatsoever.
Age: 38         Location: Illinois         

i hate it
Age: 13         Location: WV         

It all depends on the situation, place, time and who I am with. If I'm in a very awkward situation, say with family members, I always try to hide my erection or wait until it goes down. The place however doesn't really phase me. I honestly do not mind getting erection at any particular place. The time, well, that doesn't matter at all since I'm always getting them, I guess I have to live with it. Last but not least, probably the most important factor has got to be who I am with. I'm friends with two brothers who are twins, they're more than family to me and one of them is my best friend and always will be. We're very open about anything like that, so if I were to get an erection I'd just walk around with it and show it off in front of them. On the terms of how does it make me feel, I love it! It's a part of human nature, enjoy it everyone while it lasts!
Age: 20         Location: Virginia         

We have to keep our shirts tucked in at school making it almost impossible to hide a boner. My friend suggests we go back to wearing tighywhities, but neither one of us is really going to do that. It's not to bad when your at your desk, but walking around between classes is impossible. I usually just hold my books in front of it. I see other guys walking that way and sometimes wonder if they have a boner to.
Age: 14         Location: california         

When I'm out in public and I feel a erection coming on I will usually seek out a rest-room for a quick rub out. And then back to what I was doing in no time at all ; works every time
Age: 20         Location: MD         

Either one of two ways If I'm with a bunch of girls doesn't bother me much and I show it off but if I'm at school its kind of embarassing
Age: 17         Location: poughkeepsie,         

When I get erections in public I feel weired about them. Once while at work I got an erection that wouldn't go away. So once on break I went to the restroom to masturbate and boy did I feel much much better after that. It was a good thing the restroom I was using was a private one with a lock.
Age: 23         Location: NJ         

yes its embarrasing. If no ones watching me, I stick my hand in my pants and push my penis up so no one can see. If I'm in a crowd I do the same thing with my pockets
Age: 14         Location: North Carolina         

I feel a little silly, a little guilty, a little giddy, and very self-conscious. It's kind of like I have a fun secret that only I know! Though I always wonder if anyone else noticed it before I did. When the need to adjust is too great, that's when I really feel odd. How many people have noticed me doing this when I thought I was being discreet? How many of these people were inadvertently the ones who helped cause this in the first place? (Not that its their fault) I'd like to say the pros of this situation outweigh the cons.
Age: 25         Location: Ca         

I get erections all the time. And if I get one in public it just seems even harder than usual. Occasionally I'll jack off if there's nobody looking. Or at least rub my penis a little bit, just to feel good. I love the feeling that somebody could see me. Just turns me on more than usual.
Age: 19         Location: London         

Sometimes I get embarassed but other times I wanna masturbate because of it.
Age: 18         Location: Nowhere         

Makes me feel horny, so I find the nearest bathroom and JackInTheBathroom
Age: 18         Location: Scotland         

Kind of uncomfortable if I'm wearing jeans
Age: 16         Location: London         

I enjoy having an erection in public. It makes it fun and risky knowing I have a bulge going on and that it might catch the eye of someone. I'm not too worried on what people think rather more I like the excitement that it might turn someone else on that will possibly see my bulge. I like risky things so when I'm horny, it turns me on even more. I even enjoy readjusting myself the harder I get.
Age: 30         Location: Indiana         

Doesn't feel confortable really, but I don't mind if peeps see the bulge really.
Age: 18         Location: the Netherlands         

Yes. I try to hide it as much as I can
Age: 16         Location: georgia         

I want it to go away. I try hiding it.
Age: 18         Location: KY         

At this point in my life, a spontanious erection would be wonderful. I would enjoy it as long as it lasted and if possible give it a little personal attention.
Age: 59         Location: Massachusetts         

Erections in public don't really bother me as they generally don't last long and my cloths hide them. It seems that people who wear really loose clothing including those nylon shorts have a better chance of them being seen, but hey, we all know what is under there so its no big deal.
Age: 21         Location: Ontario         

Most of the time I just move it out of site but sometimes I just go to the bathroom and take care of it personally :)
Age: 18         Location: Florida         

I used to feel embarrassed when I was erect in public but not so much now. If I'm nude I cover myself with a towel. I've seen several guys with full erections at the gym - it's rare - but people tend not to be bothered by it. Men who pretend to be offended by other men's erections should just look downwards every morning!
Age: 40         Location: London         

I always wondered why I had got an erection when out and about. I did srart to analyse the 'problem' but never came up with any reliable facts. I just reckon my friend was telling me he needed some attention. He always got it as soon as I could and I liked the feeling of a swelling shaft against my trousers(pants) getting more and more urgent as time passed. It always was in a very wet state with pre-cum in these situations and ejaculation was quick when I could do it (in private). Sadly, I no longer get erections as a result of surgery for prostate cancer and this is missed very much indeed.
Age: 64         Location: UK         

I wear tight fitting briefs and make sure it points up and my shirt tails are out
Age: 14         Location: NYC         

I feel sexy and horny, don't usually anything about it at the time.
Age: 44         Location: Illinois         

A lot of times I'll get embarrassed and try to cover it, but then I realize that it's pretty difficult to see unless someone is directly looking at my crotch, so I worry less about it.
Age: 18         Location: Texas         

It depends are where I am when I get the erection. If I am in the qym it excites me and I start massaging it. If I am in a public place where I can't take care of it, I still get excited and would probably play a little pocket pool. Now if I am at work I will head to the bathroom and play for a little while, sometimes playing to completion and other times depending on time just playing to play.
Age: 37         Location: Ohio         

I try to conceal it sometimes, but mostly I'd just like to relieve it as soon as possible.
Age: 23         Location: Fargo         

Depends. If I'm bored on the train or whatever it's a nice reminder of what you will get up to later. If it's at a really bad time then not so good...
Age: 16         Location: UK         

I had one the other day in school - my class was playing rugby, and they were getting changed in the locker room. I'm Bi, and was trying not to get turned on. However, I saw one of the other guy's cocks flopping inside his underpants and I eventually got a boner. It wouldnt go away, so I jacked myself off through my pants until I could get to a toilet, where I went at it. It didnt take me long to cum, but when I got out, there was a queue waiting - and most of them had boners too, I noticed! It must be some sort of schhol wanking toilet
Age: 15         Location: UK         

yah, everyday. I dont really feel embarassed or anything, cause its just what it is, but I try to press down discreetly or go to the bathroom to adjust it a bit. if I happened to be on break or something, I would run to the nearest bathroom and jerk off (discreetly of course)
Age: 21         Location: Canada         

Oh my gosh, I'm in High School and get erections a ton in class. It's so embarassing when you get up and you know people can see it. It's not a problem to get one around friends (they just laugh) In public places I will try to pull my shirt over my erection so it's not noticeable. Hope I will learn something from the other responces
Age: 15         Location: West         

I act like nothing is happening. If anyone wants to look I don't care
Age: 32         Location: Canada         

Ahahaha, I get them once in a while, I feel kind of embarassed about it because no one but my friend has seen me... And depends what class I'm in, I may just play with it through my pants. But usually I just ignore it and go one with my day =)
Age: 17         Location: Colorado Springs Colroado

Age: 14         Location: UK         

embarrased
Age: 18         Location: USA         

I've only got an erection 1 time when I was in the locker room. It wasn't that bad because some other guys had one and no one even made fun of me.
Age: 14         Location: Colorado         

My erection rarely shows in public, but when it does, I just push it against my leg, even when it doesent show, the warmth is just so nice and comforting.
Age: 16         Location: NoviMi         

i just try to hide it I guess
Age: 15         Location: ches. VA         

i try to hide it by sliding it in between by boxers and stomach. it also feels pretty dang good.
Age: 16         Location: NY         

Nothing becausE I a'm 85% impotent maybe because too much masturbation hehehe
Age: 42         Location: Toronto,Canada         

Well, when I do, it gives me a pretty intense feeling, like I am being so naughty, a kind of turn on. I used to get erections when I saw something hot like a tight dress on a hot girl, but now it just happens randomly, guess its just part of puberty. What gives me an intense feeling is pushing my erection between (behind) my legs, and then feeling the "burn" (hard to describe, excuse the pun). But being at school its a regular occurrence, when I sit behind a very hot girl, things just take their course and before you know it wham! When we are in the showers after sport we all go naked, and it is not uncommon for two, even three people to be hard when showering. Its all just accepted as part of the school day. One time, about a year ago, I got an erection in the showers after playing football and everyone noticed, its ok if its more than one person, but when it was just me, it was a very embarrassing. But luckily, another boy a couple of showers up from me started to get an erection too, and we all laughed about it in the end. There have been quite a few times when I have had an erection at the pool or at the beach, and it has not gone unnoticed. But when I am around people my age, we all just laugh it off and we don't bother to make fun or anything sinister. I think people should not be embarrassed to get an erection in public, as remember, every boy went through the same stage once too.
Age: 16         Location: London, UK         

i usually feel kind of self concious and try to hide it without anybody noticing me... rearanging things

Age: 14         Location: H, Texas         

When I get an erection in public it I feel very awkward and I try to think of something that does not have to do with sex
Age: 16         Location: New Jersey         

can I masturbate to much
Age: 15         Location: ny         

Having a erection any time is a wonderful feeling. We should never be ashamed of our male bodys and erections. When I have a erection in public I will move my penis to the place it's most comfortable. I then flex my PC muscle to feel my penis move in my shorts. It's wonderful being a man.
Age: 54         Location: NC         

I simply sit down, adjust if necessary, and wait till it's over. And this is also why I refuse to wear sweat pants in public.
Age: 36         Location: US         

If my hard penis made my pants stick out I would move it, but other than that I would just enjoy the feeling of being hard.
Age: 55         Location: USA NC         

I don't normally try to have erections in public, but when I get one I can't help but feel awesome and turned on. I don't try to hide it, I just let it be as it is in all it's glory.
Age: 21         Location: Virginia, USA         

I wind up feeling really horny and I tend to day dream, If there isn't too much attention, I'll shift it over to look as if I don't have an ecrection.. but the wrong movement hurts..
Age: 18         Location: Florida         

I never get erections in public now, but when I was a kid I sure did!! Sometimes when walking down the street if erotic thoughts came into my head, or when riding local busses or trains. I liked to think of sexual fantasies when on the bus or train. It made me feel hot and erotic to get hard in public, but I never did anything about it. I had friends, however, who would rush to go somewhere private so that they could masturbate following getting a public erection.
Age: 72         Location: MA         

Like a man. No, I walk around proud!
Age: 44         Location: South Africa         

this happens to me ever so often. and so when it does its not uncommon but I always feel like it would be really noticeable, so I typically do something to hide it. if I am in class I will put a textbook/binder over it, if I am walking I will put my hands in my front pocket of my coat and cover it, and if I am sitting I will move my leg to hide it from view, and then adjust it at a later time.
Age: 16         Location: SYracuse, NY         

If I do get an erection in public, I react differently depending on where I'm at! If I'm in class I just may play with my hard member through my pants, and when I get back to my dorm room, I'll jack off to relieve myself. And if I'm in a public place I may let it just build up until I get home, or I may just go to a restroom and relieve myself there. I don't like doing it because while trying to achieve an orgasm I get pretty vocal!
Age: 21         Location: houston         

Usually when in public and I know I have an erection, I am always asking myself, "Dude, I hope on one is looking at my package right now." Then if I have a chance, I find some way to move the erection up towards my abdomen. I would much rather it go straight up than out so that it is not that noticable.
Age: 22         Location: Texas         

Well, since I love penis, I just let it be and hope someone has a boner so we can have fun with each other's wangs!
Age: 21         Location: New York         

well, I get a little imbarassed, and just try to push my erection between my legs and keep all as usual..

Age: 23         Location: ann arbor mi         

If it's with my friends, I laugh and grin because I know they stare, and my being 15 years old with a 6.75" erection definately makes them jealous!
Age: 15         Location: MA         

It makes me feel uncomfortable, and usually I try to hide it. Often I'll get one when I'm riding in the car, or sitting at a desk in school, and when that happens it's a little better because I'm sitting down, but I'm nervous I'll have to get up and walk while it's still there. The worst is when I get one in my rowing shorts. Then it's impossible to hide and I just pray no one sees.
Age: 14         Location: MA         

I get them in school once in a while, or on the bus. It makes me incredibly horny, I really want to go at it, but no real way to get away from the situation. I once nearly jacked off on the bus in the morning, but I couldn't bring myself to orgasm fast enough.
Age: 19         Location: United States         

It will make me feel made horny and have the urge to handle it but I dont do anything about it
Age: 13         Location: Long Island         

At my age, it makes me feel like a kid again. I immediately notify the media.
Age: 68         Location: 3rd rock from sun         

When I get an erection in public I can usally hide it. My penis is only about six inches hard, and I almost always wear baggy sweatpants. So I can just push it down my leg and my boxers hold it down. One time however, I was shopping at Sam's club, and I was so horny I wanked in the bathroom; that seemed to take care of it.
Age: 15         Location: Tennessee         

I usually no longer get erections in public unless my wife and I start talking about sex or messing around. I think it is funny how I remember the days of practically walking around with a stiffy all the time when I was a teen. There is maybe a time once a month where my penis gets about 20% hard but never more than that. I kind of miss those days.
Age: 31         Location: Indiana         

Usually I'm sitting at a desk so I can just think about something boring and it'll go away.
Age: 15         Location: Texas         

It embarasses me. I try to cover it up.
Age: 13         Location: Texas         

When I was in middle school, it kind of bothered me. Now that I am an older, it does not worry me at all. I kind of like it, since it draws attention.
Age: 18         Location: Virginia         

this is a real issue for me. I get erections so easily. It's weird whenever I take my clothes off my penis just pops up. It doesnt matter where I am. if I'm alone in my private bathroom taking a shower, if I'm in a locker room filled with naked dudes, if I'm changing with my friends, whether I'm around guys or girls. It does not matter if I'm naked my penis just automatically gets hard. It is really only a problem when I am in the locker room. I am not gay (which is why I don't understand why I get boners around other naked guys) so when I have boners while showering or when I'm in the sauna in our locker rooms I always have to like slightly hunch over to try and hide it. I always want to just let it fly proudly but I am scared that people will think I am gay or something.
Age: 19         Location: illinois         

Most the time I just try to hide it by tucking it under my belt or waistband. When I am with my guy friends I don't feel as embarrassed, I feel somewhat proud.

Age: 14         Location: MA         

Awkward. Emberassed. Nervous. I try to hide it. Quickly. If I can I'll slip a hand down my pants and try to adjust it so that it isn't pointing some strange direction. If I have something in my hands I'll try to act/look casual by caring it to the side of it, or if my hands are free put them in my pockets to make it not as obvious.
Age: 21         Location: Texas         

i feel awkward, but I don't usually do anything about it. there are sometimes though I kind of have to adjust myself though.
Age: 17         Location: home         

It makes me horny and I have go home and rudb one out
Age: 21         Location: minesota         

It's just an annoyance, really, but it never bothers me. I just put my hands in my lap to cover it and try to focus on somthing else. And if that fails I try to find somwhere private to deal with it.
Age: 16         Location: UK         

I try to move it to the side of my pants or just move it down so it is less noticeable to others. I sit between two really cute girls in my class and when I get an erection, random or not, I can't really fix it because they will notice and laugh. Usually I just cover it with a book or discreetly fix its position in my pants (i.e. making it look like I'm stretching while I fix it).
Age: 19         Location: Michigan         

If I get and erection in public I usually just ignore it. I'm a open person and all guys get erections in public at one point in their life so I don't find it to be that big of a deal.
Age: 18         Location: New Hampshire         

Well, I wear blue jeans a lot, so it's pretty easy to hide it in the folds. And I'm a pretty antsy guy anyway, so it's also easy to shift things into more comfortable positions. I felt really awkward for a while, but I've gotten pretty used to it.
Age: 22         Location: NC         

I start to feel awkward and paranoid (I don't want anyone to see that I have an erection). If there is a public restroom near, I go in and squeeze the head of my penis because that cuts off the blood circulation and "deflates". Simple, right?
Age: 15         Location: Montana         

I think about females. Quite often my sister, although I would never do anytihng with her.
Age: 35         Location: USA         

I usually do not care whether or not I get an erection in public, unless of course, I'm wearing track pants, or shorts that would show it easily. If I do want it to stop though, I usually just read, or think of something really boring, and that usually helps.
Age: 14         Location: WV

Age: 54         Location: tx         

Usually I just ignore it and try to hide it. Sometimes I've gone into the restroom to masturbate. I never leave a mess! Once I was in an adult film store and had a large erection and didn't do anything to hide it and one of the guys who worked there came up to me and was talking to me about it and I asked him if he wanted to watch me masturbate so we went into a back room and I got completely naked and had him watch me and help me as we stroked and stroked my erection with a bunch of different techniques in a bunch of different positions.
