Disrespectful?

My boyfriend asked if we could watch a film naked, only to cuddle no fun involved. It was American Pie band camp, I was annoyed throughout the film as I could feel he was getting turned on everytime nudity was shown. He kept trying to reposition himself to make it unnoticable to me though I already knew. Do all men get like this when they watch these films? It just upset me he was turend on more by these girls and didn't give me any attention.

' only to cuddle no fun involved'

Erm I think you've answered your question yourself. He said he didnt want to have sex before the movie? Thats a bit weird especially if he was getting erections but maybe hes trying to prove that your relationship is not just based on sex? Have you had a big fight recently??
As for the boners, its understandable, give the poor guy a break! He was probably embarassed by the fact that he was getting turned on by such basic nudity scenes (seen by the way he was shifting so that you wouldnt realise) so you should have either 1)totally ignored it so he would be comfortable or 2)jump on him and **** him hard.

Did he cuddle up
oops...did he cuddle you AFTER the movie*

OP you're showing an amusing degree of naivity.

Men are turned on by visual stimulus, for women it's psychological. I point you to the rhetorical 'porn debate' for evidence.

If a man sees an attractive naked lady... guess what's going to happen! Oh noes, hide the children!
im sorry you were having a naked cuddle and you are annoyed he got turned on?

ps :troll:
WTF? He was prob just trying to be nice he probably really wanted to screw you but was trying to be a 'sensitive' guy. I bet you didn't even say he could give you attention if he wanted. Also boys get turned on by nudity we can't help it. I never get girls one minute you want a guy who doesn't want you for just sex the next.
Men see naked women, they get erections. Get over it. Though I should imagine that having his naked girlfriend right next to him at the time is going to play a part in him getting excited.

Remember, he really can't help it. And I'm fairly sure the only person he would have wanted to have sex with is you.

I think he was being quite respectful. He promised not to shag you, he gets turned on, so he tries to hide it just so you don't get pressurized into ****ing.

Agreed.

Men don't just get erections every time they see a pair of baps. I mean come on, an American Pie film? And not even a good one?

I obviously can't speak for other guys, but when I watch a film like that where the emphasis is based on comedy (well, it tries to be), whenever a lass gets her baps out I think "oh, they're alright" or whatever. I certainly don't get aroused by a five-second tit flash.

On the other hand, if there's a lass in the buff lying next to me watching a film, then obviously I'm going to be paying quite a bit of attention to that fact. :smile:

OP, it seems pretty clear to me that the boners were because of you and he didn't want to show you that he was thinking about having sex with you, and that he wanted to be more respectful.

Good Lord woman! Why on earth did you think it'd be all sweet and innocent!You were both in the nuddypants for God' sakes!
I doubt he would have got turned on watching the film himself, fully clothed, so if it makes you feel better you probably factored in his sexual excitement.

The boy can't help getting an erection.
Don't get naked and expect a 'cuddle' next time.

Confront him about it.

Or you're being too sensitive. and why should he be respectful to you?! Respect is always earned and never given freely...

I'm still in hysterics from imagining you and him lying naked next to eachother during those scenes - epecially with him trying to shift about to hide his erection:toofunny:
OP, I think you're blowing this out of proportion. Just think how lucky you are a) not to get aroused so trivially, and b) not to show it when you are! It's certainly not disrespect on his part; quite the reverse.

Talk to him - he probably didn't know you minded. By the sounds of things he just didn't want his erection to spoil the cuddling. Men can't control their erections, so I think it might be a little unfair to be angry with a man for having an erection.

Eh? You should always treat another person with respect. You cannot expect respect to be given if you don't give them respect - it's a two-way thing and one of you will have to be the first to start.

What on earth do you mean "why should he be respectful to you"!!?? It's like me swearing at you and thinking I'm completely entitled to do so because "you haven't earned my respect" (considering I don't know you) - which would be wrong! You should treat everyone with courtesy. And in the OP's situation - they're in a relationship, so it can be assumed they've known each other for a time, are probably friends and might even be in love - and yet you have to ask WHY he should pay her respect when such is their relationship, namely, a couple!? Where would relationships go without respect!? They'd all break down miserably!
