The saga of my first erection

I remember mine, and it’s a most strange story for a gay man.

I am old enough that I grew up before the internet, and I was raised in a working class Catholic family so there was absolutely no talk about our bodies or sex. None. I literally had no idea what a penis was even for. We knew “fuck” was a curse but didn’t know its meaning.

I had three female cousins, aged 9, 11 and 15. They were over our house all the time, visiting. I was 10.

One time the 11 year old asked to see my penis. I said no because my mother had told me I always needed to keep it covered because I peed with it. But my cousin insisted and cajoled me. It turns out my 15 year old cousin told her younger siblings all about her experience seeing and touching a boy’s penis, how she has rubbed it and something amazing had happened. This seems to have really lit a fire in my younger cousins and they seemed to view me as a safe test subject to explore this phenomenon further.

I relented and in my bedroom I revealed my small flaccid penis. They were amazed and after a few moments of looking began to touch it. I felt quite startling sensation, and the three of us were all amazed when I quickly became erect. I mean, I must have had erections before, but if so, had no idea whatsoever what it meant. (I think back on that time in my life and laugh at my profound lack of bodily awareness.)

Once I became erect, the sensation of the rubbing took on an increased intensity — an odd feeling I had never had before (I have never had nocturnal emissions so had never had an orgasm.) I began to react to the rubbing, and my cousins noticed my squirming and giggled. Always a bit of a devil, my younger cousin cupped the upper part of my dick in her two hands and began rubbing them back and forth, like you do when you’re warming your hands, and she was closely watching my reaction with a smile on her face. This hit me like a tidal wave and brought me into COMPLETELY uncharted waters of feeling. She kept doing it and the EXPLOSION of sensation kept building, and I felt like I was going to fly clean out of my skin. I panicked and pulled my penis away and said, ok let’s stop. They seemed disappointed because the thing my oldest cousin had told them about didn’t happen, but seemed on the verge of it.

I certainly remembered that experience, and the next time I got an erection, when I saw a shirtless actor in the brand new magazine, People, I went into the bathroom and rubbed some of my sister’s thick strawberry shampoo on my penis and began stroking it. Soon I had that unbearable sensation again and stopped. It was the next time I did this that I forced myself to keep going, and even though I felt like my head was about to detonate like an atom bomb, finally had my first orgasm. Ii had never experienced anything that even came close to that.

Kind of ironic that I found out about all this from two girls — girls I was related to, at that. It’s odd that I got an erection, because I don’t get erections from women. I guess it was the physical stimulation.

Do you have a clear memory of the first erection you experienced and were aware of?

Which actor?

Mine was a nocturnal emission, so I missed it completely.

I was scared, asked my dad, he explained what it was.

My neighbor and I exchanged blowjobs since I was 7 and he was 8. He came in my mouth first. I thought he peed in my mouth. I was pissed. At 10 years old, I came for the first time in his mouth and it was the most amazing feeling ever. It lasted so long, too. Sadly, he moved away when he was 14.

R7 I don't remember. I'm sure most people don't remember. When you're young you get erections, it's not always about strawberry shampoo.

I got many erections before I ever did anything about them. But I can't say I remember the time or place.

Dear diary it finally happened

by Anonymousreply 17July 26, 2025 3:11 AM

Never even thought about it. I didn’t discover jerking off until almost 15. Everything was normal but I didn’t think of it.

by Anonymousreply 18July 26, 2025 3:13 AM

I remember I was surprised when I saw in movies as an older teen that guys jerked off lying on their backs, because I always did it lying on my stomach, for years.

by Anonymousreply 19July 26, 2025 3:17 AM

Isn’t it a blur for most of us, those years?

There was no one singular memorable First Erection moment… but there were absolutely First 1,000 Erections moments in the year or two that followed.

R9- At 8 years old one is rarely in puberty already. If the other boy was prepubescent how could he have ejaculated in your mouth?

I’ve been having erections since I was a kid.

by Anonymousreply 31July 26, 2025 6:48 AM

Like R24 said, I think most men remember the first time they came. Erections (like morning wood) happen fairly frequently and for me, weren't particularly memorable unless they happened in public, like in the classroom or something.

by Anonymousreply 32July 26, 2025 10:00 AM

Sorry, dear. But by age 11, you've had thousands of erections. You seem confused by erections and orgasms.

Babies get erections. Fetuses get erections in utero. It's unlikely that you can recall a 'first erection'.

Hm.

Boys get erections spontaneously from birth on.

Funny our correspondent seems not to have noticed until he was 10.

The first erection I can remember I was around 5. I remember it because it freaked me out and I went running to my mom to show her.

I'm 72 years old. No, I can not remember when I had my first erection or whether or not there was any saga involved. Now if you ask me if I remember my first orgasm, oh hell yes. That was life changing.

by Anonymousreply 39July 26, 2025 1:52 PM

Difficult though it may be for many of the cunts replying to this to believe, but yes for many of us, particularly in Catholic families, there was a first time you got an erection and was conscious of it.

I’m sure I had a million before that one time I was nine and in church with my class. We were kneeling on the pews. The boy in front of me was beautiful, I loved seeing his ass so close and clearly. I suddenly felt pleasure in my crotch and noticed my dick was hard, and it felt so good. That was almost 45 years ago and it’s like it was yesterday.

by Anonymousreply 40July 26, 2025 2:49 PM

I suppose it's weird but I never got hard as a kid or YA as a response to seeing an attractive person in real life. It was always something in my imagination that did it, or quite a few times it was music, lyrics or the beat in rock music. Or sometimes people in magazines.

Bullshit! Was raised Catholic and went to Catholic school and have always popped boners, same with my buddies (like good Catholic boys we discussed thi stuff). The only guy I ever met who spoke about his 'first erection' was a very nerdy and socially retarded Methodist.

Thanks spokesperson for all Catholics.

Meanwhile as I said, I’m sure I had a million and wasn’t aware of it, or at least of its significance, until that one time.

The point is r46, it may have had nothing to do with being Catholic.
