* In the London production of ''Theatre/BeMoreChill'' the main character Jeremy gets this a couple times. First when his crush Christine puts his hand over her heart(and in the process something else)and then again when he gets sandwiched between hot girls Chloe and Brooke.

* In ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'', the novel version of ''End of Day By Day'', when Gauron was reminiscing about [[LoveAtFirstSight how he first saw Sousuke]], as well as talking about how Sousuke was a beautiful Assassin Saint that he wanted to kill and rape, Gauron starts taunting Sousuke... and through the darkness, Sousuke notices something ''from the middle of the bed'' that seemed to be rising and "beckoning" him. Since Gauron had no arms... or legs... and there's really nothing else other than that thing between his legs that could possibly be coming from the middle of the bed... yeah. It's sufficient to say that Sousuke was [[ChasteHero thoroughly freaked out]].

* ''WesternAnimation/BatmanAndHarleyQuinn''. While not shown to the viewer, Nightwing gets one while ChainedToABed and seeing Harley in her underwear. She most definitely notices it (his legs are spread and he's wearing superhero tights) and decides to take advantage of him.

* In ''Webcomic/{{Rain}}'', this is PlayedForDrama when it happens to Rain who as a UsefulNotes/{{trans|gender}}feminine teen not only [[https://www.deviantart.com/jocelynsamara/art/RAIN-p357-Anatomy-376330721 finds this embarrassing but also dysphoria inducing]] which [[https://www.deviantart.com/jocelynsamara/art/RAIN-p358-Function-377054964 makes her depressed]].

* Frequently shows up in WebAnimation/YouTubePoop, especially involving Militron's (VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames) most infamous quote:

* ''Series/OneThousandWaysToDie'': in the segment "Erecto-Phobia", a cuckolding boyfriend suddenly finds himself with a little soldier who just keeps standing at attention. He takes advantage of the situation by sleeping with several girls throughout the night...before dropping dead due to being poisoned by a Brazilian wandering spider. One of the symptoms of said spider's venom? Priapism!

* Riki in ''LightNovel/AiNoKusabi'' is a SexSlave who is often subjected to this as a form of torture by his master via a cock ring turned RestrainingBolt[=/=]ShockCollar.

* PlayedForLaughs with ''Music/NinjaSexParty'''s song "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin No Reason Boner]]".

* Played twice for humor with Shirou hiding his in Type-Moon's other VisualNovel ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'', once by Saber, and once by [[TokenMiniMoe Ilya]].

*** In one episode, Roger, Francine, Haley, and Steve are having an extremely slow race to see who will hit the living room wall last. After Roger trips Haley, causing her to knock over Francine, he then defeats Steve by simply mentioning the word 'boner', causing Steve's penis to hit the wall with an audible thump.

* ''Series/FlandersCompany'': In the Japan Expo episode, Dr. Parker suffers from this while interviewing Andromalia ([[HornyDevils a succubus]]). Hippolyte gets away with just a NoseBleed, but only by thinking about [[ThinkUnsexyThoughts lots of dead puppies]].

Most of the time this is PlayedForLaughs and doesn't last longer than a few minutes. However, the condition known as priapism (prolonged erection) is dangerous, and can lead to [[CripplingCastration penile amputation]]. That's why Viagra commercials tell you to "seek immediate medical attention if an erection lasts for more than four hours." In case you're wondering when a guy is in a state of sexual arousal for several hours, an erection naturally comes and goes a few times, as if it needs a break.

* "Walk With An Erection", a [[Music/TheBangles Bangles]] parody by the German band J.B.O., is about a guy who spots a hot woman at an open air bath and prompty pops a boner. He spends the second verse trying to conceal it. In the third verse, he decides to flaunt it on a springboard. But then it gets caught in the ladder, and [[WardrobeMalfunction his swim trunks rip open]]...

** Liam is heavily {{implied|Trope}} to turn the tables on Milo when he [[https://www.trippingoveryou.com/comic/the-way-it-is asks]] if they want to have TheirFirstTime: Milo crosses his legs in StunnedSilence, and Liam looks at his lap and deliberately lies across it.

* ''Film/{{Bullshot}}''. Archy walks in on the hero Bullshot dressed in long johns, excited by the fact that he's got a case to solve. The exact nature of his excitement is...[[RagingStiffie obvious]].

Contrast TheLoinsSleepTonight. See also SomethingElseAlsoRises and BiggerIsBetterInBed. Compare OrAreYouJustHappyToSeeMe, which has more erotic undertones than this trope. May be caused by a PottyEmergency, or vice versa. May result in a NotIfTheyEnjoyedItRationalization, which itself leads to DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale or DoubleStandardRapeMaleOnMale, or simply jump to the latter without going through the former (which itself may or may not be implied). JizzedInMyPants is this trope [[UpToEleven taken to eleven.]]

'''Guy:''' But they don’t give you a stiffie, do they? [beat] do they?\\

* Discussed in ''Film/SilentNight'', when Deputy Bradimore is called to investigate a Santa accused of disturbing the children:

* PlayedForLaughs with ''Music/NinjaSexParty'''s song [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin No Reason Boner]].

* Music/ZZTop's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzLjb0_v-CM "Woke Up With Wood]]. It doesn't get more obvious than that, folks.

* [[Music/RedHotChiliPeppers The Red Hot Chili Peppers']] [[IntercourseWithYou Sir Psycho Sexy]] gives us this lyric:

* This is the basis for the punchline of The Hermit by The Irish Rovers. The eponymous hermit, using a hat to hide his nakedness from three pretty girls, finds that he can simply hang it upon his crotch.

* The Replacements song "Gary's Got A Boner".

* Heavily implied in a ''Manga/WanderingSon'' chapter. Nitori is getting a massage by her girlfriend but ends up getting an erection. Her older sister Maho walks in right when it happens, [[NotWhatItLooksLike causing a stir]]. This is an even bigger issue since the protagonist is UsefulNotes/{{Transgender}}.

--->'''Asuka:''' Come on, GET UP! ''[{{beat}}]'' You stupid pervert, I didn't mean to get THAT up!

* ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'': There is a G-Rated version of this trope in Brock whenever he meets a charming lady (regardless if they are already married or not). Basically, it's gotten to the point that when he '''doesn't''' have this around someone, he starts getting suspicious (often he's right; it's Team Rocket or someone else disguised as [[InexplicablyIdenticalIndividuals Nurse Joy or Officer Jenny]]).
