For the last time, spam-bots, I don't give a flying rat's ass about texis hold em, fffentamine,animated porn, stories of suspect nature concerning unnatural acts between species or family members, low-interest mortgages, c1alis or any other drug promising life-endangering hards-on.
Or would that be life-endangering hard-ons. One of my friends and I have been arguing the correct plural of hard on for years. She's a Military Brat and leans toward hards-on, likening it to courts martial. I say, even in the plural, there is only one per customer, so the plural occurs at the end, hard ons. We wrote to William Saffire but he didn't think it was a serious question, we suppose, since he never responded.
Anyway. I have no interest in any of the above listed topics, and I suspect that my readers don't either, so if you would just remove me from the list, I'd appreciate it.
Not that this plea will help. But I feel better for it.

Might it depend on whether you are referring to more than one man ... or to more than one erection on the same man?

OceanGuy, I'm sticking to my viewpoint here. Even if it is multiple erections on the same guy, they only occur one at a time. Perhaps, in the collective, many men with erections at the same time, the plural would be hards-on. I'm still waiting for a definitive answer.

I think hard-ons sounda a little better but be assured I will be puzzling over this for days now.
