Overheard at Miguel's - that damned Pavlov!

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Wed Jul 23, 2003 3:37 am

Miguel's was almost eery on Monday night - it seemed near deserted compared to the normal, weekend crowds. There was a great crew there, though, and it was actually quite nice. Stories abounded. This one was rather disturbing and I'm already thinking of methods of verification...

So, as I understand it, this climber found a stash of porn when he was a child and hid it away in various places in his family home. One stash was in the bathroom, and from the sound of things many, many, many hours were spent pooing and reading porn. Well, Pavlov being the little bitch that he is, naturally had a profound effect on this little boy who is now a man.

The Pavlovian repsonse is not that suffers painful erections when defacating - which is what I assumed would be the punchline. The unfortunate trained response is that the poor bastard has to poo whenever he gets excited! As I understand it, as soon as he walks into a sex shop, sees a beautiful climb, or gets romantic, he's running for the john.

Damn!

That almost sounds as silly as the guy on Sunday night telling us he put up the best 12 in the red with only 18 months climbing experience

I think it's perfectly logical. Why does the sound of running, or trickling water lend one to pee? Why do you salivate when you smell certain foods? If said guy spent enough time repeating the same process, then the body could have easily developed an association of arousal, or, at the very least images of nekked women, to deffecation. That's a pretty shitty (pun intended

) conditioned response to have and one I would try VERY hard to break...unless, of course he's German and into Sheitza (sp) videos and can find a willing participant.

Hell, I managed to hold back for three climbs Sunday at Phantasia (for nearly 4 hours, Matt and I were the only people at that crag), until we made a rest area pit-stop and headed over to Torrent.

Hmmm..I wonder if that's why I always have to crap before I step on a hard route. The anticipation just makes me need to go.

Hmmmm - I'm a bit skeptical of the whole story. One issue is that he could only poo so often, but as a teenage boy, he could wank almost constantly. If his ONLY stash was in the bathroom, and he ONLY wanked in association with defecation, then - maybe - he could develop an association between SEXUAL arousal and defecation - but that still sounds far fetched. I would think that he could do a bit of behavioral modification to deal with this - you have a limited supply of feces in your intestines - if he waited until after defecating before mastrubating, then he could hardly have a bowel movement 'on demand', so to speak.

It also seems odd that his porn-poo association would extend to climbing. Also - who gets excited in sex shops? They serve their purpose, but they're pretty repulsive experientially.

I guess I'm saying that maybe he just has a 'poo fetish' of some sort, and this story is just a way to rationalize it? (yes - the bowel movement-erection association would make more sense, I guess)

Tom, do you ever lighten up and have fun?

Indeed I do! I break my day down in to 3 hour chunks, (and with an 82% success rate!), I try to set aside at least 42 seconds to 'get loose and funky'.

And when I'm good and constipated I go and have just the hottest jerk off session!

...and I thought I was open-minded!
Gees, you guys are weird... You make it sound like it's a rainy day or something?!
There is a perfectly good area less than 45 minutes from this machine. Why not go and climb... BUT:
Stay away from prunes, and beans. Try eating more carrots and spinach for as long as sexy routes give you the runs!!!

You are weird, but you all make a work day THAT much more appealing - rewarding - and fun.
