Is it normal to get an erection when taking a particularly bad poop?

I understand how (no pun intended) shitpost-y that title sounds but I am genuinely curious. I've recently had it happen, and it's a rare occurrence as I don't usually have any problems taking a moment to answer the call of nature. I sure as hell do not have a kink for this, and frankly don't see how people do, but to each his own.

But back to the question at hand, is it normal to SOMETIMES get an erection from a particularly tough/large poop? If so, could someone please explain how it works and why?
Many thanks internet.

    Can't start my day without my morning coffee and a good poop question. Let me ask my son who's sitting at the breakfast table with me eating his cereal.

    It's normal. The poo presses on your prostates and stimulates an erction. The more pressure, the more stimulation, the harder the cock.

      So can I say, log = wood?

    Take it from someone who's had haemorrhoids due to straining during bowel movements: you really do _not_ want to experience that.

    Hard stool can be caused by various things. You'd be wise to investigate what might be going on with you, and to take steps to make your poop softer and easier to push out. It could be something as simple as not drinking enough liquids.

    I sometimes get wood when pushing out a log.

    Very rarely.

    It can press your prostate when you go

    Yes, it presses on things, plus when you are pushing, I assume you are pressing blood flow to that area, and what causes an erection, increased blood flow, if you push enough, you will also push some semen out too. Happy pooping!
