The stage of arousal that occurs between complete limpness and rock hard erection. In this stage, the penis is about half engorged and is too soft to stand proud and erect but to hard to be completely flaccid. The elevated blood levels give the penis a lumbering, heavy feel. Ironically, it is possible to either urinate or ejaculate in this stage (see: messy marvin). Also, because the penis still hangs low, its increased size makes this stage ideal for attempting to visually impress or slapping sexual partners.
