Suppressing sexual desires

Annoyingly Progressive Since 2006
There are people who choose to live a life of a "straight" person for moral reasons. That's something.
There are people who choose to live the life that society imposes upon them through discrimination, guilt, threat, disenfranchisement, and judgment. There are people who choose to life a life of a straight person out of fear of harm. That's something.

My hair is dark brown.

I could choose to live the life of a blonde. I'd need a lot of bleach, but I could do it.
But why would I do so? Why would I want to fake something as unimportant as my hair?
I cannot choose to be brunette, it just happened. I could choose to color my hair, but why would I? I don't care if someone tells me that God prefers blondes. I have no reason to accept their opinions about God's preferences.
I'm not blonde, I don't want to be, and I don't care about your opinions about hair color. Nor do I care about your opinions about God's opinions about hair color.

Until someone can give me an objective reason for changing my hair I'm not inclined to do so.

You are wrong.
See, to have sex, especially as a man, you need to be sexually aroused to get an erection.
For a man who's not gay or bisexual, the erection won't hold very long if other men are touching it.

I don't know about that. All a penis needs to remain erect is stimulation. Horniness can do it, but it's not the only way. Many a time I have woken with an erection and no sexual arousal at all.

That's obviously false. Sexual arousal involves much more then mere physical stimulation.
Literally nothing about the idea of of gay sex, gets me (a straight guy) going. At all.
Quite the opposite. It's an instant turn-off.

This is even the case with certain women.
Most people have a "type" that gets them going. To express it quite to the point and a bit shallow, some guys like fatties. Some like curvies. Some like flatties. Some like tall women. Some like small women. Some like big breasts, others don't.

There's a type of women that get me going instantly and a type that doesn't get me going at all.
So no, it's not just about mere stimulation.

That's because the so-called "morning wood" isn't about sexual arousal.

The medical term is "nocturnal penile tumescence".

What Causes Morning Wood?

Ah, but you said that sexual arousal is needed for a man to get an erection. And you've admitted that this is wrong. Morning wood is just one way a man can get an erection without experiencing sexual arousal, as you have said. And any sufficient physical stimulation of the penis will result in the penis becoming erect. And if such stimulation continues, it's certainly possible for ejaculation to happen. Sexual desire is not required for a man to get an erection, nor is it required for him to ejaculate.

There have sadly been quite a few cases of a man being drugged by a woman and while he is unconscious, the woman physically stimulates his penis until it becomes erect, and then she engages in sexual acts with the unconscious man, even involving the unconscious man ejaculating. There is certainly no sexual arousal taking place here; the man is unconscious and is unaware of what is happening.

There's also a very strange Japanese game show called Orgasm Wars in which a straight porn star receives a blow job from a gay man, and the straight porn star is challenged to not cum. Having watched the video myself, I can tell you he loses this challenge (and it's quite funny). I won't post a link, because the only video I could find of this is from Porn Hub, and I think providing links to that site will get me into quite a bit of trouble. However, I'd be happy to provide the link to you in a private message, so let me know if you'd like me to do that.

So a man can indeed get an erection and even ejaculate without experiencing any sexual desire.
