Have you gotten sexually excited without any sexual thoughts in mind

Hi

Has anyone (men or women) felt realized that they are sexually excited, even if you know you are not thinking anything sexual?

If yes, does anyone know why does this happen?

Actually I was just feeling lazy and was in bed earlier today and suddenly I started feeling wet down there. I know very well I had no sexual thoughts going on in mind. Not even medfet. I was just casually looking around half asleep, but still I got excited.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi! I get sometimes erection spontaneously, I don't really know why.

Interesting topic. While I often do get erections without necessarily being aroused (especially in the morning), I don't have memories of becoming sexually aroused without having had sexual thoughts. I can, however, become very much aroused rather instantly with a single thought, pretty much like turning on a switch. But that must be the case for a lot of people.

A lot of times!! :-)

In my younger days when I didn't masturbate for many days this would happen - the intense feeling of needing to play with myself. Also when shimming up a tree, all of a sudden I'd find myself about to orgasm...

Don't forget there's the Ucs (Unconscious) forever humming away. (We believe there's such a thing, right?!) And isn't one theory that all thoughts, whether conscious or not, are fundamentally sexual? Ergo, erections and such can be unruly in their behaviour sometimes!

It's good to know I am not the only one😃

It seems common

It's happened to me before. Just sitting around watching tv when I would find that I have a very hard erection. Out of nowhere. Always glad to find all still works.

Morning erections - and nocturnal erections are common. Some say we get three erections per night (gawd, wish I would wake up as I hate to waste them!). There are lots of articles about what can trigger an erection.

"parasympathetic nervous system. When you see, feel, hear – and maybe even smell or taste – something that is sexually attractive, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters. This leads to the dilation of arteries in the penis, which means more blood flows into the penis, which means the penis becomes erect. The parasympathetic system is more active when you’re sleeping, which in addition to producing erections also causes your muscles to relax and your heart rate to slow."

Was that theory proposed by Freud?? I think half of my thoughts are focused on sex - the other half are focused on kink! 😄

I think in my case, multiple fantasy scenarios have played out at once in my brain, leading to a muddled sense that I was horny over nothing in particular.

ETA: Oh, never mind. Got a better look at the OP. This is something different. But yes, I have had erections without any sexual feeling causing them. More being cold, I think.

Yes, gwhap (post #9 ), l think it was Freud who taught that all our thoughts are sexual. He may be unfashionable these days, but from what you say he was dead right in your case! And maybe mine - although until lately l was rather 'sublimated'! (Zity is doing its best to change me!)

It has certainly done its best to change me too.

I often have to remember when with friends, that my new normal is not theirs. Kinks or sexual oddities that I think nothing of anymore, can still end up shocking others, no matter how experienced or world-wise they think they are.

Freud isn't only unfashionable, but it can now be seen he was an idiot who promoted the ridiculous idea the vaginal orgasm was mature and therefore superior to the clitoral orgasm, which he saw as inferior and 'immature'. His unscientific theories damaged women's sexuality for decades.

The wise thing may be to take a holiday from Zity every once in while. 😃

I like to think that doing meditation 'detaches' me from otherwise distracting thoughts, and l try to be authentic yet 'open' (except to drongoes, o.c.)

He was a brilliant writer while being a child of his (Victorian) times. From another perspective than the physiological one your example invokes, Dr Z (post #13 ), he liberated much 20C thinking, including via his influence on artists and writers. All geniuses have flaws, naturally. Also, they may go into long periods of eclipse after they die. But their vision may prove more enduring than a particular zeitgeist, even or especially if they fathered it in the first place!

But the foregoing is a generalisation, so l may be wrong after all. Hmm.

I would be bored out of my mind without Zity. I find the discussions to be of a better quality than most of the things one reads in the media. And we can be far more open about personal things as well.

It is especially a godsend in the present circumstances.

Well said, agracier (post #16 )! Some time, point the rest of us to some of the classic posts and threads you've read on Zity! (Will there one day be an anthology, 'The Best of Zity'?!)

When I’m exercising and it’s hot I often get almost painfully aroused, like to the point of having to sneak off and cum just for the relief.

That not infrequently happens to me also, but probably due mostly to my particular sexual kinks and predilections, especially rubber clothes and sneakers. I love seeing women in athletic clothes, especially sneakers and wetsuits (I'm also an avid former SCUBA diver), but even just tennis, running or workout gear. And since even when alone, I'm wearing at least sneakers and pretty frequently neoprene exercise shirt and pants, it's pretty hard to keep my mind and libido from being stimulated. Fortunately, I can usually just go and relieve the sexual tension right after the exercise.

If I walk by or into a leather shop or stand close to a band organ/calliope that has really deep base pipes I can get turned on and wet. The smell of leather just gets me going with nothing else needed. The base vibrates just right to be very enjoyable.

I have to be very careful in these instances. My sub gets quite a grin watching me try to keep my composure so no one else can see what is going on.

A little different context than @Nurse_Phillips, but similar in a way. An hour before I exercise I take two Pre-workout nitric oxide capsules and two L-Arginine capsules. The workout has to be extremely rigorous to be able to utilize all of those supplements. They help with blood flow and help me breath through each set better; I have more energy to burn. The few times that I came in and showered early, I have had some great fantasies about my favorite Zity women. In fact, I hope one in particular woke up with a smile on her face the morning of May 5, because the day before I just did a lot of stretching and some warm ups trying to get rid of the soreness from my Saturday Blackjack routine. Since it was already there, It was nice stroking to her posts and comments. I just wish I could have actually given her some of that warmth.
