A member asked:

I can ejaculate without having an erection. i'm 64, is that normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Erection and ejaculation are controlled by different aspects of the nervous system (parasympathetic and sympathetic respectively). hence it is not necessary to have an erection to have an ejaculation.
