Morning wood growing up

The topic below about masturbation and roommates reminded me of morning wood, which was definitely a problem growing up and into my 30s. Rare now, but was every morning as a teen and young adult. Most of the time I didn't immediately get out of bed so it was gone by the time I had to get out of bed in front of my brothers or roommates or whoever during the years. But there were times when it was unavoidable that I had to get out of bed quickly and still had a full one or partial one clearly visible in my briefs. On hot nights with no AC, it was not unusual for us to sleep in our briefs only on top of the covers and so those were the times when it was polite not to comment on what we woke up with in the morning. Still, brothers don't cut any slack with each other so I definitely remember my older brother commenting on the morning boner in my briefs more than once. Scout camp was another example of sleeping on top of sleeping bags and either waking up with a full scale boner or even worse, a wet dream that was impossible to hide. Same with college roommates. If we rolled out of our beds at the same time, I would be self-conscious about being hard as a rock and sitting on the edge of my bed and my roommate in a similar situation sitting across from me and neither of us saying anything about the other. Fortunately, those boners don't last long. Waking up after a wet dream was definitely trickier to hide.

Your brothers must have had them too. I was never with a guy I was seeing who didn't have an erection in the morning. My husband always does.

Your penis worked properly, maybe your brothers' didn't and they didn't know theirs may have been defective!

If I was a guy or if I had a son and he posed your scenarios to me and asked for advice I would say this ....

Look down at your perfectly working member , nod and say , " Yep, I have the best working alarm clock that never fails !) Smile and strut on by . ?

This perfectly normal and can be caused by the dreams you had or your body's way of stopping from peeing in bed till you get to the bathroom. I'm over 57 and this happens to me with no worries. Actually I think it is nice to wake up that way and feeling good. Think of it this way, your plumbing is still working fine.

David, try telling someone who has ED that you consider waking up with an erection to be a problem, and let me know what kind of feedback you get.

"Waking up is the second hardest thing in the morning" ~Every guy I ever asked

At age 72, it's quite reassuring to still pop morning wood if I've had a restful night with plenty of REM sleep. Can't help smiling to myself when I feel it pressed against the mattress, then rolling over, slipping my hand in my shorts if I'm not sleeping naked, and giving it that first long caress of the day from base to tip. Often inspires a long masturbation session in a hot steamy soapy shower if I have the time. It's nice to still be able to do that.

I had three roommates during my years at college who all preferred to sleep the same as me - in just underpants or nude. So when we woke up most mornings it was not unusual to see each other erect. As I recall, we rarely commented on each other's condition. but made no effort to hide it. I do remember my last roommate, however, who's erection curved up toward his belly button, while mine tended to point straight out and down a little. Funny what sticks in one's mind over time...

My roommates during college, we slept in our briefs, boxers or some naked. It was highly unusual if any comment was made concerning another's "morning wood". Probably, some of us were a little more self conscious of having an erection in the beginning of the school term. I had 2 roommates that would make a joke about their hard on like "must of had a great dream." It wasn't long before, there was no effort to cover up your erection.

My college had two communal bathrooms /showers areas on the each floor of the dorm. Without fail, every morning there be a few guys "tenting" their towels while waiting for a shower stall.

While I don't have a penis to get morning wood I can honestly tell you that I LOVE morning wood and can't get enough of it. I would love nothing more than to sit atop Doc's morning wood every single day and send him to work for the day happy and satisfied. Mmmmm!!!!

My husband gets morning wood in the morning or in the afternoon when I wake him up then after he has worked at night. It is good to use him sexually when he is just so ready for it. It is some times the time to get on top of him or maybe doggy, or just get him into the shower and play with his wood in there. 😜 😈

Usually a piss hard on.

One spring in my sophomore year, it was hot enough to sleep naked, so when my alarm clock rang for my first class, my roomie got a peek at the boner I woke up with. Had to go way across the room for my fresh briefs. Didn’t matter I guess, he was still three-quarters asleep.

But in those days I had hangups about exposing myself to anyone, erection or not.

OH.... that was embarrassing back then. In mornings when mom or dad would come in to make sure I got up. Then in college it did not take too long to get over that -- after a week or two in the dorm, you saw your rommie's morning wood and he saw yours.

I remember the trip to the bathroom in the mornings with my penis standing up like a flag pole. Embarrassed if my mom would see me but these days I can only wish for such a problem.

@Columbusguy Any specific memories of getting accidentally exposed by them? Did they ever make you get out of bed even though you knew you had morning wood? Don't remember if I ever had that happen but at some point it probably did.

I remember fondly having to bend over to pee in the morning. Alas, no more.

I've had morning wood as long as I can remember. When in the military, sleeping in "open barracks", it was not unusual for half the men to wake up with erections and head to the "head" to relieve themselves. No one seemed to care or notice. When in college, I shared an apartment with another guy. Typically we would both wake up with erections, and would laugh about it. Just for fun, one time we measured our respective morning erections (he won). Now nearly 50 years later, I still wake up with morning wood occasionally. I had to explain to my wife many years ago what the deal was. She now understands and occasionally will give me grief.

Back a few years ago I stopped at a friends house to pick him up for a road trip. He was not awake yet and his father said "lets go and wake him up"----we were both about 18 at the time in hot southern Florida. His home did not have any AC and he was just sleeping nude on top of sheets with a ceiling fan running. Well, his father just walked up to his son's "morning wood" and flicked it with two fingers. Thomas woke up immediately and sat up saying "why did you do that" with both his father and myself laughing at him. After his pop and myself finished a coffee, out came Thomas and only said, "lets go".---nothing was said about it again but I surely sort of felt sorry for him.--(LOLOL)

@blindside Why does she give you grief, or do you just mean she jokingly teases you about it. She should appreciate that he's in working condition, and even take advantage of your situation on occasion!

At seventy-six I still have morning wood, but not as frequently as when I was younger.

I have always enjoyed waking with a hard cock, even now in my sixties, though not like a flag pole, but still hard.

I had to share a bedroom with my step sister after my father first remarried because the house he had at the time was too small. We lived in Florida at the time and did not have central air conditioning so my step sister and I slept in our underwear and it was very embarrassing waking up to see her grinning at my sheet tent or it coming up in my briefs if I was on my back. My dad suggested wearing boxers but then to my total embarrassment it shot right out the opening one morning and I woke to giggles. I think the embarrassment in the morning led to me getting erections if my step sister or step mother saw me undressed.

You should have "owned" having the erections since she saw you erect even before you woke up. When I was a teenager I frequently darted past my older brother's bedroom naked, squatted a bit, spread my labia and said, "have you had any of this lately?" You could have said something like "you would be lucky to get a dick as good" or something like that. I was a bad girl, still am, but you could have said something like that to your sister to stop her giggling.

For me it's not a problem, it wakes me up to pee every morning......hehehehe

Speaking of parents waking up boys and seeing their morning erections, that happened in our house too. With our Mom when we were younger teens and she would get us up for school or chores. She would insist on us getting up immediately when she came in to wake us up because she was worried that we would go back to sleep unless she saw us up and standing before she left the room. I remember standing there feeling very groggy in my underpants and her telling me to get moving as she left our bedroom and I realized that I had a boner showing and being embarrassed.

Wasn't as bad but still embarrassing when our Dad would get my brothers and I up to run in the mornings during summer. He was in the military, a runner and very fit. Since we didn't have to go to school, he would make us get up and run with him before he went to the base each morning. No way around doing as he said so we would get up, pull on a jockstrap, shorts, socks and running shoes and go out the door before doing anything else other than taking a pee. I remember this as a teen and thinking that I would have difficulty stuffing a boner in my jock enough to get my shorts up too. He never said anything about what must have been obvious to him but kept us moving as we got dressed and headed out.

Yeah, I had a morning wood every day in college. I sleep naked. Not uncommon for me to have to get up while my roommate was around. It didn't bother me, I'm not shy. I had one good friend who would jack off with me during college. He'd frequently come over in the mornings and always look at my morning wood. One day he went into my suitemates room and found him waking up with woody. The three of us got together and pulled out dicks out to compare. I was waking up and had morning wood too. The initial friend was soft. We stodd there in a circle and compared dicks for a minute.

Morning wood is highly embarrassing if you wear light pajamas and have to go to the loo or somewhere else.

Ah, fun times!

As a teen at home I took care in the morning when crossing from my bedroom to the bathroom. Either waiting until the coast was clear or carrying something in front of my crotch usually a clean pair of underpants. Dad knew what was 'up' and would sometimes smirk a little at my predicament. Mom may have known what was going on but never took notice.

Once I was in college and in a dorm full of guys hiding it was pointless. Guys with tented briefs or bulging towels traversing the halls on the way to the bathroom was a normal occurrence.

My husbands in his early 50’s and often wakes us with morning wood. And to be very honest about it we are 2 working people in the paper chase of making a living. So???? The woodie is forgotten on weekdays but on weekends, we both end up smiling.

Called life.

If time is a problem weekday mornings, all you need to do is wake up ten minutes earlier.

You won't miss that much sleep.
