[QUOTE=DerickD;229753]No matter how turned on I feel, I need hand contact to get an erection. Why has this happened? What can I do to make me more easily erect? Thanks[/QUOTE]

More information, please.

* Do you mean any time all the time? Do you mean just when in the company of a partner?

* How old are you?

* Has anything changed in your life, medically, socially, work related; or are experiencing more stress at work, with a relationship, other?

As men age into their forties, this phenomenon becomes typical as we loose the ability experience spontaneous erections or erections resulting from just thinking about an upcoming sexual episode.

With more information we may be able to zero in on this better.

As usual thanks for taking the time.

I do mean all the time, I can sometimes but it is fairly unoften. Unfortunately I am only 20. If I am with a girl as well, the boner is not often there unless I am stimulated.

If she is willing to stimulate you, what is the problem? That is part of foreplay.

If your just looking for the ability to get hard at the snap of the fingers, or a sexy little wink, then you have to stop masturbatin, stop touching yourself, and stop watching porn and stuff...just basically bring yourself back to square one sexually because people do tend to become desnsitized.

The above made points are all valid. I would only add that it could just be a passing phase caused by the reasons listed by Doc and Ducy. As Brandye points out as long as you are getting an erection there is no problem.

The penis is such a cause of frustration: you are in class, get a spontaneous erection and then you are called on to go to the front or class ends and you are afraid people will notice and think something is wrong with you. When you don't get spontaneous erections you yourself think something is wrong with you!

God, I am glad I do not have one! So much bother and frustration. I am perfectly happy borrowing others when I need to play with one.
