im in 8th grade right now (im 14) and i of course have to change in the locker room but only have to go down to my underwear to change, and i was wondering, when you get into highschool and take p.e., i know you're supposed to take showers afterward, but are the showers individual or big ones with a lot of nozzlesalso i was wondering, have you ever, or what would u do if you got a boner in the shower with all your friends around you

Showers

Each school has a different set up. When I was in school we were required to shower after PE. I now work in a HS and showers aren't required and I don't know of anyone ever taking one. Although I hated them in HS, I'm in a gym now several times a week and shower every time. After a while I got tired of being ashamed of my body and did what everybody else does. As to those unwanted erections, yep its happened to me...and a number of others on this board and another one I spend some time on. Erections aren't always about something sexual and at your age they happen more often than you can count and have no control over them. If you pop one in the shower, just laugh it off and try to conceal it as much as you can. However, just know that if anyone sees it you'll be teased and one day you can give it back because you can almost be sure it'll happen to them as well.

The practice seems to be different in different schools, from what people have said here before. When I was at school showers were compulsory and they were all one room without partitions, but it seems that now in the more recent school changerooms they often are individual, and also in a lot of schools showers aren't compulsory and in many schools no-one showers.

wow big relief, cuz every once in a while im in the shower and im not thinking of anything bad and i just pop one right there, i'll have to ask my brother (17) if his highschool which will be mine has individual or one room showers, but anyway, thanx
-
You shouldn't worry too much about whatever happens in the shower, everyone has one, some are a bit diifferent then others though...I wouldn't worry about it...
-
If anyone asks, you can always just ask them why they were looking. Or, you could do what I would do and just say, "water feels good" and laugh
-
checking it out with your brother is a great idea. I wish I had had a big bro when I was your age. Are you guys close? He can be a big help to you during your teenage years, he's been through all the things you're going to face in the next couple of years. If you're close enough to talk to him about things, do so!

I'm 15 and go to a private school. We all take showers. It's no big thing,in fact at back to school orientations parents and students are told that showers are expected from all students for good hygene. Yeah I was embarrased as a freshman but when all the guys started getting naked it was no big thing. Also I was even more relaxed because some guys had smaller dicks than me. I haven't popped a boner yet and haven't seen anyone else get one, and if it did happen oh well. I have seen guys including me with a semi, but no one says anything. So don't worry about getting naked,the size of your dick or popping a boner,everything will be ok. After the first week of taking showers it will be no problem.

Thanks for that well written "right on" encouragement for your peers!

the way our locker room shower is is just like 4 or 5 columns with a bunch of shower heads but i take showers doesnt bother me only a couple other guys do in my class Good idea. No need to be ashamed of our bodies, although society needs some level of modesty, and morality. Certainly showers is a proper place for people to be naked. You make it easier for others to get over their fears. And I can't imagine making fun of anybody who pops a boner, especially if the showers are new to them, unless they are trying to show off. I think people these days, have too much privacy and aren't used to any public nudity, or they are afraid they will pop a boner. Well it wouldn't be the first nor the last time, somebody got a boner, so so what? Big deal.It's not common for somebody to get a boner, but not rare either. It happens, especially with young guys recently gone through puberty. So it should be no big deal. At least I never made fun of anybody I saw get a hard-on. I just said nothing and ignored it. I saw some guy get a pulsing hard-on bulge in his pants in class, and nobody said anything, or even seemed to let on that they noticed. Surely I wasn't the only one who saw?That hot water + feeling exposed, in public showers, can get a young guy with "raging hormones" aroused I suppose, until they get more used to it. From what I read in forum postings, some young guys just get hard all the time? Oh well, it happens.For a person to go on like everything is normal, and ignore that they got a hard-on, encourages others to ignore too I think.But I don't recall ever getting hard in the showers, but got raging boners in class. Puberty + a long day in classes I guess. But one of my cabin-mates at summer camp got rather hard in the showers, but nobody said anything or seemed to care. I don't think anybody was too much afraid to shower naked, at least where I went.I can't imagine that anybody should be afraid of communal showers, especially if their peers think it no big deal if someone pops a boner, perhaps because they aren't used to communal showers?, or that they wouldn't shower and be naked, but sometimes there isn't enough time to shower, and I don't think everybody should have to shower everyday, unless they are sweaty from gym or something.

a little confusing but nicely put pron. people shouldnt really feel ashamed i mean cmon u were born naked of course ur dick was like less then an inch and not pulsing with blood but still i dont mind at all i popped a boner the first week i started taking showers at school i didnt care after that it was fine we all jus had a nice laugh

It's not like I haven't seen a boner before. I think God make dicks to be a little wild, to remind us to marry and have children. It's not like you have to do anything with it. Responsible people just go on with their business and ignore it, encouraging others to do the same. It's okay for dicks to sometimes get hard. Especially if it is somebody else who gets hard, and not me. They can get aroused so easily. Especially for young guys with those "raging hormones" as an excuse.But people must also have responsibility and self-control, for society to not have to intervene. I remember my Dad said when I was young, "If you make a baby, you are responsible." So of course being a virgin until marriage is the way to go. It is so much easier or preferable, to help raise my children, than to pay child-support, and hope to see them once in a while.Yeah, we must not have a complete right to "privacy," since we are all born naked.

Having just been required to take a year of P.E. this past year (I was a freshman/15 like I imagine you are going to be) I know that in our school showering after class was "strongly encouraged"...this meant in reality that no one ever took one. In our school though the showers are all just in one big room.However, since we were required to make up any classes we missed after school, I did take a shower in there once after school when no one was there. Felt kind of...liberating... Well anyways, good luck next year!

i kinda know what your saying. im a dancer, strait by the way, and i have to change in a dressing room infront of guys, but i just have to go along w. it, although i have never poped a boner, many of the guys in my level have. its normal, and yeah you might get made fun of at school, but someone else had a point that it'll brush off sooner or later. Pi have that same worrie, im an 8th grader @ a JH that doesnt have P.E.

In my school, showers were optional, and very few took showers.

Do you get a boner when you shower at home? I dont usialy out of the blue. If you get a shower in the guys locker room its probrably because youre paying too much attention to not getting a boner and concentrating on your dick which makes you get one. Either that or the guys turn you on ^^
-
i tend to get boners in showers @! home on occasion, usually im soo fucking tired in the mornings that's that last thing on my mind
-
When I have to change in front of a lot of people, I just find a friend or other agreeable person and start a conversation, keeping away from the topic of girls, usually cars or the f*cking teachers. Nothing that'll get you hard.And if you do, then just pick up the pace a little. And NEVER leave you shirt on when you don't have pants on. It's likely that your dick will be rubbing it and could cause a hard-on(trust me, I know from experience) If someone does comment on your size, you could always try the, "Why are you looking at my dick?" line. I know it's kinda childish, but it might just work, ya never know.
