I BELIEVE AS A PHYSICIAN NUDIST THAT WHEN MEN ARE TOGETHER AND RELAXED AND ONE OF THEM GETS A HARD ON IT DOES EFFECT THE OTHER MEN AND THEY BEGIN TO GET HARD ALSO! WHY, I AM NOT CERTAIN, PERHAPS IT IS A WAY TO COMPETE WITH OTHER MALES ERECTIONS OR NOT TO HAVE THEM THINK YOU CANNOT GET A HARD ON! I TRULY DO NOT NOW THE ANSWER TO THAT, BUT I KNOW WHEN I HAVE BEE NUDE AROUND OTHER NUDIST GUYS AND SOME GET A BONER I DO TOO!HICKGUY M.D.
I think it is contagious, i see one and my cock goes erect
Often happened when I was at a men's only naked group... chat would be on random topics, not sexual. One guy would start to firm up, without any stimulation and shortly afterwards a few more erections, myself included would pop up, then disappear again after a few minutes. No harm just nice to see men relaxed about it.
Being erect is the most beautiful state of manhood. If one sees that, it's contagious so all the men present reach such a height of beauty.Just wanted to bring this up (no pun intended) for more discussions. I love having a contagious erection and seeing who else stands at attention.
it sure is like that. I noticed that as a boy and even when raising my son or being around other males. Doesn't have to be erotic, it's just natural to get erect sometimes and seeing someone else erect triggers the same in us naturally too.
As I don't consider contagious boners a particularly sexual response, I researched the cause of another contagious behavior: yawning. One explanation of why people yawn when other people yawn is a phenomenon called echopraxia. I understand this to be defined as "monkey see, monkey do," as we've evolved as humans to be social creatures. A person sees a certain behavior and, if they're sensitive to it, will mimic it even unconsciously. Whereas I've read speculation that this is made possible by mirror neurons in the brain, I'm not aware of mirror neurons. Perhaps Hickguy or another doctor or scientist could give us a lesson on mirror boner neurons!
