In my experience there are physical influences that can make daytime sexual function great or terrible, independent of having working "plumbing". For example, during a period in which I had undetectable estradiol, erection quality was good, either day or night, but sexual desire was completely absent. Then I rebounded into high estradiol territory, and daytime erections weakened, orgasms became difficult to achieve, etc. So while I don't discount mental factors, I think it's not reasonable to make the blanket statement that problems with daytime function are all in our heads....
If you have morning wood but can't get hard during the day, it's a mental (performance anxiety, lack of sexual attraction, etc) issue. Your body is telling you that your plumbing is working. ...
Can you get hard when you masturbate watching porn?
Actually that's very wrong. The base membership that I spend my days here with questions AI use repeatedly and strongly discourages AI use as almost a blanket policy. I think you're very wrong about your forum and the attitude on E and AI's.No wonder some criticize ExcelMale.com. The anti-estrogen (estradiol) crowd is big here
