    Gods, this was a problem in my younger days. Not actually firing my fifty cal, but worrying about it.

    For whatever reason, I had a chain of doctors that were absurdly attractive. It was not common to need any genital exams, but it did happen some. You do enough lifting, and enough high impact workouts in martial arts, and you run into groin issues here and there. Spread that out over more than a decade, and chances start piling up

    Luckily, the pain that had me there combined with the nerves of worrying about the missile going into launch position usually prevented exactly that. But holy crap, the times it didn’t were awkward as hell.

    The one doc, it happened twice. I kept apologizing, and she finally said she didn’t care, and that it was obvious it wasn’t me being a douche or anything.

      She told you right, though. Have had a lot of medical personnel in my family, have heard the stories. It’s a biological thing that happens for reasons even the person with a boner can’t always explain. So long as you’re not being a problem with it, it’s just a part of the job, especially if they’re doing anything that involves interacting with sensitive areas.

      Especially sports-related. They have to deal with awkward teens getting physicals.

        For sure!

        I was a nurse’s assistant, giving baths to people. I had more than my share of erections happen, and I’m a big, hairy dude. Not exactly the typical fantasy figure even for guys that are into guys lol.

        Hell, I had a couple younger patients that I had to say the same thing to because they were really upset that it happened with a male caregiver.

        It’s still awkward as hell lol.
