I've seen in a lot of the sexual positions that sometimes the penis bends or goes horizontal, but how? Whenever I get hard it goes straight up and starts to hurt if I try to push it down. Should I hold it where I want it to be (horizontal for example) and then get hard while holding it there before inserting it into the vagina? Or is there some other way?

Bending Penis


A boy's penis grows unevenly meaning that one side will grow faster or longer than the other. This is what causes it to angle this way or that or list to one side or the other. You cannot change it, it is what it is. Unless it has a sharp bend to the left, for example than there is nothing wrong with it. Everybody's penis has a slight bend to it. You are natural and normal, except as noted.
As men get age the angle of the erection decreases so they say. I'm in my late forties and can't really tell that the angle has dropped, it still stands straight up, but it does seem to bend down with more ease for certain positions which were uncomfortable or painful when I was younger. In my own case I think the vertical erection has been mainly a plus for my partners.
I have read in a couple of different sources that in studies done using MRI on couples during coitus the penis actually acquires the shape of a boomerang inside the vagina. Now this sounds crazy and when I say things like this I try to back them up by listing the source. This time you'll just have to believe me. Actually this data is listed on a website that I used as a source in a post about female ejaculation-if you want to look for it.
Don't worry about this. The only problem I see is the pain you mention. Have you had vaginal sex yet? If the pain gets worse or if it is a problem once you start having sex then you should see a urologist. Otherwise just chill.
The penis tends to become less firmly erect with age. Hence, ED meds!
To the original question: There is a condition called Peyronie's disease that shows up in a man's 40s typically. It causes an angle in the dangle and sometimes leads to inability to have sex. Little is known about its cause but the leading theory is sharply bending the erect penis in younger life. This would come with rough sex, trying to penetrate the impenetrable and strange positions - defined as uncomfortable for the man involved.
DLB: The penis and the vagina do adapt to one another. Sometimes one and sometimes another. I do not like overly rigid penis in me. I feel impaled rather than loved. I did have a male companion mention another woman who "felt like being in a cast." So, I guess there can be extremes to the mutual adaptation.
