Is it "unfair" to consider erections threatening or not be to seen in public but hard nipples are ok?

[yukita]

Maybe a bunch of men do get erections in public. But we just can't tell.

Probably because it's so small, it can't even pose as any threat

 

[Checkerboard Strangler]

Is this seriously a thing? Have you been to a nude beach? Who told you a hard on is threatening?

Not all clothing optional resorts are the same.
Some are "naturist" resorts and some are "nude" resorts.
If you're looking to hang out with pretty looking naked people, avoid the naturist resorts.

PS: In my high school days there was an abandoned quarry in Northern Maryland identified as Dickerson's Quarry which featured a large rock outcropping called "14" thanks to the big number carved in it.
Almost every kid stripped off their clothing to go there. Trouble was, it was totally illegal to even be there but that didn't stop us.
Now the whole placed is fenced in and posted so it's no longer accessible but back in the early Seventies if you looked half decent and showed up at Dickerson's you might get lucky.

Just wandered in and saw this thread, and I must say it's hard to know how to react.

Does one firmly grasp the topic by the hilt with a mature mindset, or drop the rigid response and attempt a less turgid approach? I suppose the only thing to do is accept the tumescent nature of the topic, work the swollen opportunities to employ double entendre, and embrace the fervid splendor of it all.

 

[MrNiceGuy]

Pretty much reality sets in after a while for those that may get aroused that eventually they will realize that only 1/2 the people at Nude Beaches and Resorts look good naked. Then that pretty much stops

1/2? You are being very generous....

Hard nipples get hard for even non-sexual reasons, as little as cold weather.
Erections happen when a man is excited sexually, rarely otherwise.

Akshully, depending on the man, erections can just happen. Particularly when I was younger -- not so much anymore, as I am an old guy now -- but, back in the day, my boy seemed to have a mind of his own. I had a girlfriend back in the day who used to call me superman (the man of steel) -- ah, memories.... lol. And, I didn't even have to try....

Well, that was then. Now is now, and times change. So, there's a great line from a movie - The Bucket List -- for you young guys out there -- "Three things to remember when you get older: never pass up a bathroom, never waste a hard-on, and never trust a fart. ·"-- trust me on that one. Truer words were never spoken.

Penises get hard for nonsexual reasons ever heard of a morning wood typically not because you're dreaming about sex.

I'd have to disagree with this erections don't happen because the man is sexually excited a man becomes sexually excited because he has an erection. I mentioned to morning wood there's also something called Angel lust where a man will die and have an erection

Like I said it depends on the venue.
If it's a naturist thing your turgid state will probably not be appreciated, but if it's a nude resort, it will be rather obvious by the libertine and even hedonistic behavior of the guests.
But with regard to the latter kind, it is doubtful you would find any old paunchy grey haired bald guys like me there, more like young studly guys and equally luscious women who both have lots to be proud of.

Call it ageist if you want, I am not here to cast aspersions to either one, I'm just saying that I've observed both in my younger days and it was pretty obvious that one was a bunch of folks who thought au naturel was being close to Nature and maybe even God, while the other was a walking meat market, sometimes featuring alcohol, weed and music with raucous parties that went into the night sometimes.

Well, it seems like pretty private situations, unless a man had a nap in public. However, it's still more mindful to bring a jacket to tie over it, genital related things still make people feel more weird. Otherwise people should mind their own business if the guy is clearly ashamed, and it's beyond his control.

 

[Grand Mal]

I've spent a bunch of time at nude beaches, never could understand the need to wear anything while swimming. And I don't like the feel of wet cloth on my skin while swimming trunks dry.
Where I've been it's generally ignored when an erection happens, just don't ever touch it.
But any hint of photography happening is not tolerated, its pounced on, loudly.

The op was about nudists on the beach or in groups.

Never understand this. We all have genitals.

On I see, well at nudist beaches, everything is on display so it's bound to happen.

Well, we are more than monkeys. regardless of religion, modesty is required by the vast majority for a wholesome and stable society.

Erect nipples are OK at a nudist resort.

If I had an erection at a nudist beach or resort, I would turn on my stomach until I got soft again.

Single men like me are guests according to AANR rules. Most nudist resorts prefer couples.
I could be reported to AANR if I made unwanted sexual offers to a woman.

At Cypress Cove in Kissimmee, FL, men and women range in age from 18 to 90. Occasionally, I've seen
kids as young as 3 years old near the pool.

If I went to a nudist resort by myself, I needed to be cautious about asking a woman for her phone number or giving
her my phone number. If I talked to a single woman during several visits, she might offer me her phone
number if she was interested in dating me or in a friendship.

Nudist couples at most nudist resorts are not swingers; but occasionally a couple will reveal that they
enjoy swinging with other couples.

Average looking men and women are typical at most nudist resorts. Overwight men and women sometimes attend,
Some men and women are very shapely; but they are usually the exception.

I usually have more fun at a nudist resort when I visit with a girlfriend because single men are viewed as disrespectful
to women. My old girlfriend was offered sex by two married men when she went to a fast food booth at another
nudist resort. Most women view these sexual offers as flattering but disrespectful.

What a terrible day to have eyes…

Erections are from sexual arousal, stiff nipples are usually because someone is cold. The two are not comparable, and the premise for the question is deeply disturbing.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

Where do people get this stuff in their head??
I will turn 60 on my next birthday, and I haven't seen some dude walking around with a hard on once. Not once.

This is the kind of non issues that people bring up, when there are so many real issues being ignored.

Not necessarily. Erections can happen from something as simple as a gust of wind.

 

[roguenuke]

So this thread has confused me since I first saw it because some people do have an issue with stiff nipples. In fact, that is often cited as a reason for dress codes that force girls to wear bras, because people might be able to see their nipples if they get hard through their clothing even if not see through (yes, that is disturbing for anyone to consider, but I've seen that excuse made).

I do get that erections can be considered "threatening" by some, but generally only if the man is pointing it out and/or trying to physically put it on someone. It would be pretty gross and possibly sexual harassment to do that (maybe even sexual assault if you put it actually on someone), but the same could be true of hard nipples, which either men or women can get. I feel that intent matters.

But if you're at a nudist resort and you're offended by penises flaccid or erect that's probably not the place for you.

I don't know about you but I don't only ever have erections when I'm sexually aroused.

Maybe they don't anymore, I don't know... when I grew up if someone saw a kid with an erection he was doomed for days of surefire teasing.
Which was a problem of course, boys in early puberty get them at the worst times possible for no reason at all.
Thank God for schoolbooks.

Nipples and genitalia are not the same thing.

Nobody will tell me if it includes men's nipples too.

Erections are not always from sexual arousal.

Maybe we should ensure that kids are taught in school empathy and that it isn't okay for them to tease other kids. And no, that really wasn't taught or at least not taught as much in the past. Now it is being emphasized throughout school.

And yet it hasn't slowed down a bit.
In fact some studies show it is higher now with social media

An erection on a person with obvious size and muscular advantages over the size and musculature of girls and women between menarche and menopause is a potential threat of rape pregnancy. Nobody's nipples are such a potential threat, male, female, or whatever.
