Remember what made your cock stiffen as a boy?

There were no opportunities to see naked people in the Ireland of those years – girlie magazines were banned, and gay magazines were beyond the pale – being queer was a crime back then.

But I discovered the pleasure of looking and enjoying the sight of naked men when I was about nine years old, I discovered the sights that gave me pleasure, long before I hit puberty............

My mother inherited a large art book. It had hundreds of plates showing great works of art. I remember first discovering this book when I was about 9 years old. I loved that book, especially those pictures of naked men and boys – Michelangelo’s David, Donatello’s David, Apollo, those Greek gods and athletes – and I especially loved the statues of big muscled men - Zeus with his big heavy penis and balls hanging down – I was fascinated.

I guess every young gay lad gets to see pictures and videos of naked men early in their lives now – the internet has made voyeurs of everyone. If I was a straight little boy, I would be peeping at straight porn – and I am sure that if I was my nine or ten-year-old self now, I would manage to get to see gay porn. The world is a changed place now – and it is certainly for the better.

Mind you, I derived infinite pleasure from my study of the artistic male body – as I rubbed my little stiff member. I was still several years away from being able to orgasm, but I had discovered the pleasure of looking at naked men and my cock was already sending pleasure signals to the brain.

And those naked guys peopled my dreams and my daydreaming – gladiators, romans at the baths, athletes competing at the ancient Olympic Games – anywhere there were naked men.

And the few brief glimpses of my dad’s limp penis as he undressed remained fixed in my mind – the size of the hairy thing, it troubled and excited me and made my little cock stiffen in my short pants as I wondered what it would be like to have a huge penis like that……. And that was before I realised that all men had cocks that could get hard - I thought I was the only one - and I was too ashamed to ask, I knew there was something mysterious and hidden about penises...
