My boyfriend and I were in an adult video store, and they happened to have a gay porn playing on the monitor, I noticed after my boyfriend saw it that he had what seemed to be a partial erection, he didn't want to talk about it and got really embarassed. Is this a normal reaction for a guy to have?

I think you’re reading too much into it myself. Being a man myself, I can definitely vouch for having some unwanted erections in my time. I remember in a sex ed class, we were discussing erections… Fact is, a man can get aroused by pretty much anything at any time, I remember my teacher used to say “Put a straight man into a room of gay people having sex, and the straight man is more than likely to get an erection” Your boyfriend merely saw something, and thought “sex sex sex” and his body reacted. Put the idea of sex into a man’s mind (especially younger men) and the man will have a reaction, anything from a tiny tingle, to a little movement, to even a full blown erection, anything is normal. Also, I think any man who’s been in high school can recall some “uncomfortable” feelings in the locker room at some point in time wether they want to admit it or not. You’re boyfriend saw a gay porn, and his body reacted because he thought of sex, doesn’t mean that he’s gay or bi or whatever, it’s a fact of life that man can get aroused by practically anything at any given time, and that’s not what determines your sexual orientation, it’s what you enjoy that determines that, and I’m sure your boyfriend was uncomfortable at the notion that he got an erection, and that he truly did not enjoy it.

Porn does that to a guy. Doesn't always have to be straight porn either; pretty well any sign of a penis that is sexually excited will excite the penis of the viewer. So, he is fine. Now if only he would accept the fact he has a penis that gets erect and it is perfectly okay to acknowledge that fact whether it's to his gf or his mates or whomever he has around him when it pops up. Guys who are so uptight about an erection they deny it or pretend it doesn;t exist are just wastign time and energy on make-believe when they could be finding better ways to use it. Personally if I pop one with someone around I often make light of the situation and don't give a darn if they notice it. And that applies whether I am clothed or not. After all, it;s just a penis doing what a penis is supposed to do so no sense getting all freaked out over it.
So, next time you see him getting erect in that type of venue feel free to walk over and give it a good feel; that way he won't be able to deny how hard he is. Might embarass him a tad but who cares, he is your bf and you should feel free to get all touchy feely when you want to. Though I would not recommend taking it further until you are in a more private place - hehe.

Not at all. It's a major turn on to see a woman smoke a cigarette.

Of course it is, silly!
It doesn't necessarily mean that he is gay or anything. It just means he is turned on by a man having things done to him (who cares who it is doing it).
Don't get on him or anything, you might cause him inhibitions about being with you. Maybe you should explore gay and bi porn yourself. One doesn't have to be gay to be turned on by it.
Maybe he is turned on by porn that does not objectify or degrade women. WHY would you have a problem with that?
You should only be really worried if he is turned on by rape-porn, porn that promotes violence, or kiddie-porn.
Don't worry about him being turned on by porn that promotes consensual sex.

somethings just turn on guys and some guys have no controll of what turns them on because it isn't their decision

Sure is normal. Guys get turned on by the mention of sex, and seeing another guy having sex is a turnon even for the straightest guys, that is why couples sex porn videos are popular. We like it all.

Totally normal. Sex, no matter what the circumstance, will turn a guy on.
