  Dear Heather,

Why do guys get boners so easily when all you're doing is making out?


 
 
 
Hi.

Erections are simply a response to pleasurable feelings, not necessarily an indication that a guy intends to have sex.

Making out can be an exciting and sensual experience for both guys and girls. When girls get excited they usually experience swelling of the genital area--the labia (or lips) and clitoris. Her excitement just isn't as easily detected as a guys'.

Guys' penises, on the other hand, are in such a prominent position on the body and are so much larger than the clitoris that it's very easy to tell when a guy is excited.

Are you annoyed because you feel pressure to "do something about it" when a guy has an erection? If so, don't sweat it. You can simply take it as a compliment, an indication that he's attracted to you, and leave it at that, unless you have a genuine desire to go further.

For more information on this topic, check out gURL's fast facts on erections.

Take care.
