So I have noticed that when I am laying on my back to sun, my penis will be laying towards the right then all of a sudden it will kind of point towards my chest and then go to the left.  I can see it sort of pulsing with my heart beat, but again it has nothing to do with an erection as I am not "excited" or "touched by the wind" etc.  My testicles also do this thing where they "churn" kind of move in circular motions towards my body and then back down??? I guess I have never really examined or stared at another guys penis so I am just curious if this is normal?
While at a nude beach this was happening and I rolled over even though it was not something I thought was not to be hidden, but wasn't sure of what others thought.  I also am average sized, but not hung so does the weight of a hung penis hold it in place so this doesn't happen?  When it moves and goes towards my chest I worry that people might think I am getting a semi-erection when I am truely not.
Any feedback would be great.  This will for sure not stop me from visiting nude beaches etc, but just wanted to know if it is something other guys experience?

    My guess is that this is normal.  They seem to change directions and size even when erections not happening.

    Yes, these are completely normal actions for the penis and scrotum. The balls, particularly, are constantly being adjusted toward or away from the body in order to control temperature. They like to be about 4 degrees cooler than body temperature.
    The penis moves because of all the blood flowing through it even in a non-erect state. The warmer it is the more heavy and far from the body they'll hang, and we all know about the shrinkage factor when it's cold ;).
    That being said, an onlooker may perceive these movements as being caused by sexual excitement. I wouldn't concern myself about it but if you think someone around you is uncomfortable when this happens treat it as you would the start of an erection and roll to your stomach or cover up.

    Ive noticed my balls turning over when nude tanning, but only when nude...
    Its all about body heat and naturaly keeping them cooler.. sperm survives best at around 94 degrees.... and the little buggers know how to survive all on their own..
    The penis thing im not sure about... but when there are girls around and its warm.. yes, it may seem like party time for the little fellow.. lol.. just hide it till things settle down... :)

    Murphy goes to the doctor, says "I'm worried about my penis, I think it looks like a little rocket ship", doctor says "what's your wife think?" Murphy says "she's over the moon!"

    It is the heat that is causing blood to flow into your penis

    Very normal

    Here was a man who really took care of his body. He lifted weights and jogged six miles every day. One morning he looked into the mirror, admiring his body, and noticed that he was suntanned all over with the exception of his penis. So he decided to do something about that. He went to the beach, undressed completely, and buried himself in the sand, except for his penis, which he left sticking out of the sand. A bit later, two little old ladies came strolling along the beach, one using a cane to help her get along. Upon seeing the thing sticking out of the sand, the lady with the cane began to move the penis around with her cane. Remarking to the other little old lady, she said, "There really is no justice in the world." The other little old lady asked, "What do you mean by that?" The first little old lady replied, "Look at that. When I was 20, I was curious about it. When I was 30, I enjoyed it. When I was 40, I asked for it. When I was 50, I paid for it. When I was 60, I prayed for it. When I was 70, I forgot about it. Now that I'm 80, the damned things are growing wild, and I'm too old to squat."

    Yes it's perfectly normal for the penis to move and change size and shape according to body temperature.  Some people are so worried about it, they go to extreme measures of penile mutilation and have a silly looking lump of heavy metal hanging from it, so as to weight it down, thus preventing the poor thing from jigging about.

    I never got people who fluff or indeed wear various items to keep their penis "looking a certain way".
    • At the nude beach, I'm in and out of the water all day.  Therefore, my genitals are in various degree of expansion or contraction throughout the day.  While laying down, sometimes my penis is lying between my legs or resting on my stomach.  Because I'm circumcised, sometimes my foreskin recedes halfway, and then expands again.
    1. Part of nudism, to me, was forgetting what your penis looks like and just enjoying being nude.  Notwithstanding beginners, I don't get why a nudist would be concerned about size or looks.  Just seems counter-productive.

    This is normal, as it also happens to me on a regular basis. It is a simple matter of your body adjusting things in an involuntary manner. I would expect most of us are taken by surprise, as such would be interfered with by underwear or other clothes (unless you are lucky enough to live nude 24/7).Nothing to worry about.

    Cut back on your iron intake. Your penis and balls are being moved around by earth's dynamic magnetic field. On the other hand. if you get lost your penis can get you home safely as long as it remains straight.

    I worry about getting an erection when falling asleep on the beach. For safety reasons, I tie a red flag to it as a warning to low flying aircraft. (Don't want it snapping off,ouch)

    While it's true that a man's testicles will rise and fall with temperature changes in order to regulate the right conditions for the production of sperm cells, the penis also senses temperature changes triggering it to shrink and shrivel, or expand. Also keep in mind that all that sunshine our bodies are receiving is producing vitamin D which lends a helping hand in the production of testosterone! Warm temperature sensations, and a little boost of testosterone, can sometimes inspire a bit of arousal if nothing more, when taking advantage of nudity and the great outdoors.
