Here is an interesting study about men and regulation of their emotional response. Very interesting research reported by Sally Law.

Is sex a state of mind? A recent study from the University of British Columbia finds that while most men can regulate their physical and mental sexual arousal to some degree, the men most able to do so are able to control their other emotions as well.

“We suspect that if an individual is good at regulating one type of emotional response, he/she is probably good at regulating other emotional responses,†says Jason Winters, the study’s research head. “This has never been shown before.â€

The study employed 16 randomly ordered video clips. Eight were erotic, and eight were funny (specifically, the funny video clips featured the least sexy comedian the researchers could find: Mitch Hedberg). Participants were instructed to control their response to certain videos, and simply to watch the others. They then rated their arousal following each clip, and were hooked up to machines that measured their erections.

Researchers wanted to know: Could men control sexual arousal, fooling both themselves and others?

I dunno...I can keep myself from laughing. Keeping myself from popping wood is another matter entirely.

I can keep myself from laughing but the problem, for me, is my partner's laughing! Seems to happen mostly when I disrobe.
