    Over the past several years, I've read numerous accounts of young males getting hard during the sanctioned, organized school and club nude competitive swim meets that were an American tradition from the 1900s all the way through the late 1970s, when changing laws and social attitudes relegated the practice to the scrap bin of history. The tradition seemed to be most prevalent in the midwestern portion of the USA, which at the time had a higher then average concentration of German and Scandinavian immigrants.

    At these different events, the attitudes towards erections varied greatly. Some of the coaches would get really pissed off / irritated, some wouldn't care, and others just considered it normal. The swimmers also varied greatly in their attitudes. Some were extremely embarrassed and ashamed, while others loved having the opportunity to show off for the ladies in the stands. The ladies themselves never complained.

    Does anyone here have personal experience with this, or heard / read stories from others?

    Not with the school swim meets, but I have seen many people around some lidos where there are a lot of nude people around swimming with erections, and at some nudist resorts where there were some very different attitudes to people with an erect penis around and in the pool

    I've never heard of those meets let alone this controversy. Only opinion I can offer is that if someone is "angry" at an erection, they are actually angry at something far more serious than the erection and they really need to do some self-work to find out what that is. In fact, I'd go as far to say every sports coach has chosen that vocation for the very reason that they are boiling over with anger at quite a number of things that are eating them alive from the inside out and they're doing everything possible not to admit that to themselves and seek help. That said, I can imagine an erection might add some extra resistance against the water, therefore diminishing one's competitive edge ever so slightly.
