I was looking at the one of the latest Playgirl issues and noticed something interesting. In the pictures where the men had erections, some of their penises were straight out from their crotch, others were more leaning down while still hard and a couple even sort of turned straight up toward their stomachs. Since I’ve been married for 10 years and have a limited memory of what past lovers looked like, is one of the above more normal than others? Men: when you’re erect, does it stay down, out or up? I’d like to hear from as many men as possible.

I’ve seen a lot of porn, since this is a small town with fairly straightlaced people I live in. In porn films, I do notice when men have ones that curve up, because it’s so unusual. I think most guys have ones that go straight out and slightly down toward the end, like me. Of course, that’s just based on porn. Maybe because they choose men who have big ones, smaller men might be more likely to curve up? You might want to ask gay males about this.

Name : Pornlover, Gender : M, Age : 22, City : BFE Egypt, State : ID, Country : United States,I am a woman who has recently begun dating a man whose penis, when erect, curves sharply downward. I have been sexually active for 15 years and have had many partners and have never seen this before meeting him. In my experience, most men aim upward. I, too, am curious how common downward-facing penises are.

My husband, for example, can move his up or down while erect. I believe it is something similiar to a female Kegel exercise. Of course I am assuming you are talking about the direction it points and not the penis itself. I have also seen men who have curves in the actual muscle. Hope it helps.

I cannot offer an answer as to how common this may be, but to me, it seems odd that it would go any other direction.

I used to be quite insecure about that, but have since realized that there are lots of other men who point in odd directions. Really, we point in all directions. Straight out, down, up, left, right, s-curves, dips, and other configurations.

As you get older and loose your physical conditioning the angle isn’t as steep so that if you were standing your penis might go parallel to the floor and as you get even older it would point down toward the ground. I don’t think that’s inevitable especially if you stay fit…one more reason to stay fit !!! I’ve read that smoking causes poor blood flow to the penis and consequently impotence is more common in long time smokers

Name : Dan-Cubrich27330, City : Omaha, State : NE, Country : United States,Maybe I’ve had one too many open discussions, but I’ve heard it all depends on what type of underwear you wore as a kid. I wore briefs until i was about 11 or 12, then switched to boxers. More often than not while wearing briefs i was most comfortable pointing up & to one side, because if it pointed down it would fall out (uncomfortable). So as a result, when erect it points up and slightly right. Afer switching to boxers, i noticed that it gradually stood up less, and now it points forwad and right, but i still have some upward curve, which i believe the ladies enjoy at times due to the woman’s natural curve.

I think in certain situations it would be more embarrassing if it was ‘out’ when erect. perhaps someone could comment on that as well.

I can’t imagine having a downward curving one…how would that work? And most guys I’ve seen in porno movies don’t hae what I’d consider big ones, in fact, I’m usually shocked at how small they are.

As in 90°, 45°, etc. Mine, if lying flat on my back, is moveable from straight out to straight up (towards my face), if I physically move it. If i wasn’t touching it and I was erect, it would be a sorta 45° angle. Plus or minus some degrees. It all depends on the guy.

I had seen ‘floppy’ erections -those that, when erect, will fall any way gravity pulls them. As for only small penises pointing upward, my previous boyfriend was longer than average (9 1/2′)and his curved towards his stomach. I think it depends on the individual.

Name : Natalie, Gender : F, Sexual Orientation : Straight, Race : White/Caucasian, Religion : Deist, Age : 32, City : Toronto, State : NA, Country : Canada, Education level : Less than High School Diploma, Social class : Middle class,There are two or three factors in play here. First is the shape of the penis itself, and here there’s simply a wide, natural variation. A lot of penises curve to some extent, and it can run up, down, or even to the side. (I lean left, myself.) As you may know, the corpus cavurnosum, the tissue inside the penis which fills with blood during an erection, is divided into two main chambers. It’s quite natural for them to grow assymetrically, leading to a bend or curve. Next is the angle itself. Of course gravity and position have a lot to do with this, but the innate factors are arousal and age. The more highly aroused a man is, the higher the penis will point. However, as a man ages, the penis, even when fully erect, tends to point further down or away from the body. I heard a hooker once refer to an erection as a ‘mature 3 o’clock’ rather than a ‘teenaged twelve’. Of course, the final and most important point to note is that, as long as one end goes into the man’s body, the penis is ready for action. It stands in a pleasantly diverse array of possible angles, none of which affect its performance in the slightest.

Some men wear theirs up in pants, some down. Some men ‘dress right’ or ‘dress left’. I’ve been told that mine looks like Gonzo’s nose from the muppets. I happen to ‘dress down’ and it just has a natural direction now. If you get an erection (as we often do) and you’re in a particular position, you’d have to create some sort of ‘memory’. This may be a far off theory, but it makes sense to me. If you pulled on one ear lobe regularly, it would show it. Therefore, if you ‘dress up’ you’ll erect up…etc.
