This piece of man meat is highly responsive and operates quite like no other part of the male anatomy. When aroused and stimulated, it swells and grows in size and becomes hard enough for penetrating holes.<\/p>\n<p>But do you have any idea how and why your cock gets hard?<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>How Your Body Reacts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s say you\u2019re watching your favourite porn movie and your cock starts stirring. Your body begins to react to chemical impulses that your brain is sending send to your cock. This causes the arteries in the twin chambers of the spongy erectile tissues (or the Corpora Cavernosa, to give them their correct fancy Latin name) inside your shaft to dilate. As there\u2019s now more room available, blood rushes in to fill up the space, making your cock engorge and become an awesome erection.<\/p>\n<p>The whole process of getting a hard-on is surprisingly complicated. It involves your heart, lungs, hormones, nerves, and blood vessels working together so that your flaccid cock can resemble a tent pole!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also worth bearing in mind, that if your body didn\u2019t have the essential relaxant enzymes, you\u2019d be able to maintain an erection for an indefinite period of time! Unfortunately, you\u2019ll have to use a cock ring instead to keep your pecker up for longer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Your Cock Responds<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your cock is highly responsive to sexual stimulus. This can be anything that you perceive to be visually erotic, or physical touch. As a young gay man you probably get sexually excited every time you see a hot guy with a perfect ass, no matter where you happen to be.<\/p>\n<p>As you get older, you may find that your cock requires more direct physical stimulation in order to get it adequately aroused. If rubbing doesn\u2019t do the trick, and you need more help to get hard, you can always use medications like Viagra.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other Stimulations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There aren\u2019t many guys who haven\u2019t experienced a boner first thing in the morning. This is a natural response that is triggered by testosterone levels being higher, and peaking, at the start of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Some guys also get nocturnal erections that happen during REM sleep.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also possible to get hard from touch that is non-sexual. Wearing tight fitting clothing that rubs your junk can sometimes result in the embarrassing situation of having an impressive erection at inconvenient time and place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let\u2019s be honest here\u2026 A cock is a fine thing indeed!
