Happy Halloween everyone!

Here’s a discussion that’s currently developing on our gang’s e-mailing list. The names have been removed to protect the procrastinators. Warning: this is PG-13.

Friend #1:
Guess what, if you have a HUGE erection [in the bathtub] the water doesn’t rise. That’s right, you do “grow” in volume but somehow your real mass doesn’t increase. So that means that you shrink somewhere? I guess so. Can ya explain that?

Friend #2:
Easy…you still are moving around the same amount of blood. I can lift weights and get noticeably more muscular (”pumped up”) but it’s just a redistribution of what’s already in my body. So you are loosing (sic) blood then. With a big enuff shlongo you can have a black out or red out (depending) like fighter pilots used to have before G-suits.

Friend #3:
Okay, you knuckle-heads. When you get a stiffy, blood from elsewhere in your body is made to pool in your member. There is no mass added, what are you, the source of steady-state matter addition to the universe?! As for volume, the volume added is negligible (I know, I know “Speak for yourself!”) considering the relatively huge volume of the rest of your body (”Speak for yourself!!!”). Yes, I suppose the rest of you shrinks minutely, probably internal organs (blood also goes to the skin and skeletal muscles during sexual excitement), but it would be an immeasurably small change.
