37% of our respondents admit that they peek in the Men's room

Check Out Seven Pints by Conran Thomas
An interesting fact I'd like to explore that was raised in the book Seven Pints is that 37% of the guys answering this survey admit that they check out other guys dicks when they're in the men's room.

Remember, these guys are all self-identified as straight.

Conran posed this question amongst other questions related to their men's room habits, so I'll explore several of them individually.


When asked about guys catching other guys checking them out, 41% of guys in their 40's said it bothered them, while only 31% of guys in their teens suggested that they were bothered by this.

On its own this perhaps suggests a change in attitudes to what is acceptable and what is considered erotic. And this could be either due to age or a shift in societal opinions. It could simply be that younger guys are more sexually inclined, or perhaps that older guys are more aware of others sexuality.

But overall, 40% admit that they have seen other guys checking them out and that they didn't mind. When broken down into age range, the figure who don't mind rises with each age group. This could indicate an increased acceptability of penis appreciation, but it could also (rather mundanely) indicate increased use of facilities too.
Thinking back to my teenage years and my 20's, I was always more self-conscious and aware of myself in these environments, and perhaps what we are seeing here is an increased comfort with exposing the penis in a male environment rather than an increase in penis appreciation with age.

Another interesting fact here is that 37% of our straight guys admit that they have gotten an erection when noticing another guy looking at their dick in the men's room. Those guys in their 20's experience this more than any other age group, with 42% admitting that they have been aroused by seeing other guys checking them out.
Presumably there is an element of exhibitionism here, but I have to wonder if there is more arousal to seeing another guys dick than is made obvious by this question.

It is clear that if you are in a men's room with your dick in your hand where another guy can view your penis, they are in the same position. So it does raise the question of whether many of these guys are in fact aroused by viewing another man's penis than they are by being observed.

However we analyze and disect these results, one thing is perfectly clear; many heterosexual men admit to viewing other guys in the men's room, and many are sometimes aroused while there. This can only be another example to show that heterosexuality is certainly not what we expect it to be,
Therefore, the questions are valid, and the proposition Conran makes that many heterosexual men experience a fetish for penis is supported.

  1. I always considered myself straight and I do peek too! I always thought when I was a teen that it was just curiosity and comparing. But I still do it and im 27.
    And i have to admit that i have gone hard sometimes too.
    Last year i had to change my gym times because a guy who went on his lunch break from work was always there and id always see him in the showers. He was really hung and he would always get hard and that always made me hard too.
    Embarasing. And yes i did wonder what it would be like to touch it.
    Maybe i am just normal.
