When I was a
Freshmen, we had three guys in a tiny dorm and we had a lot of friends coming in and out. There was rarely any alone time. There was no privacy at all in the shower / bathroom area.
Once in a while I would hear a one of my roommates jerking off, they were always silent but you could hear the unmistakable sound of a hand moving under the sheet and sometimes the Clorox smell a few minutes later.
Well, about a month into it we were all a little drunk one Fri night, turned out the lights eventually and I just said "hey, we all get horny, we all jerk off once in a while, any one else tired of hiding it".
I honestly can't believe I said that. Was not in my nature at all, I'm pretty reserved. But I got two very quick and enthusiastic "yea's". I was like "well, I'm going to jerk off" and did so, not being as quiet as usual. Still in the dark, they did too.
Wasn't sure if it was just being a little drunk or if we'd continue to be open about it. Next day, roommate comes home lays on the bed watching TV in the middle of the day and says "I'm going to jerk off". I was like "ok", and he wipped it out and jerked off. From then on, it was no big deal. Never had to hide it. We'd occasionally all do it, but was never a "gay" thing where we'd watch eachother (except for me, I'd peek as much as possible without being caught).
Was pretty hot. My one roommate should have done it more often, he ended up getting another student pregnant. Was a whole thing. He ended up dropping out of college not sure what happened to him.
I'm not saying to try to be as bold but it sure make college a lot more fun for me that year.
