Vulgar slang?

"Spray his shorts" seems grammatically mistaken. Does it mean "masturbate himself in his shorts?"

Context:

I need a father who's role model, not some horny geek-boy who's gonna spray his shorts whenever I bring a girlfriend home from school.

I am an old man.
I have lived all of my life in America (New York, Arizona n California).

I have NEVER heard anyone say "spray his shorts".

When I saw what u wrote, for a moment,
I thought of urinary incontinence.

I've never seen the expression either.

Yes, i would call it vulgar. It does not appear to mean masturbate, but simply to ejaculate.

During recent years, the word "geek" has been used to indicate
a student who is earnest, diligent and sedulous in his studies, not frivolous.

The word "geek" came from circus or carnival folk
of much earlier years and decades, 1930s on.
Geeks were ususally desperate alcoholics, indigent degenerates
and mentally sick men (bums) who found work off-the-books in the "sideshows" of cheap carnivals,
biting the heads off of living chickens for the entertainment of paying customers.

@oristarA,
In answer to your question,
I agree that it IS vulgar.

@oristarA,
In America, over the years, there have been children
who have played with their clothes, decorating them
in different ways, some of which has included painting their pants (jeans) with colored spray-paint.

If u write it as u did, u may cause uncertainty and confusion.

@oristarA,
I would understand 'spray his shorts' to mean have an involuntary ejaculation.

@oristarA,
Get rid of it all together... Get a stiffy or a woody would be better, though if that happens one might slime up their shorts...

I have never had a voluntary one.. There is something about every orgasm that divides reality, always, into before and after, and after, you have to start over no matter what you were doing before, and it is sort of hard to make that step when the past, at least that part preceeding an orgasm is soooooooo nice... The only way I can accept it is by immediatly working on the next one, touching, stroking, massaging; sort of recharging my mental batteries, reminding myself of how I got there... It's nice too... Really nice!!!

@OmSigDAVID,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freaks

Freaks is a 1932 American horror film about sideshow performers, directed and produced by Tod Browning and released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, with a cast mostly composed of actual carnival (funfair) performers. The film was based on Tod Robbins' short story "Spurs". Director Browning took the exceptional step of casting real people with deformities as the eponymous sideshow "freaks," rather than using costumes and makeup.

Browning had been a member of a traveling circus in his early years, and much of the film was drawn from his personal experiences. In the film, the physically deformed "freaks" are inherently trusting and honorable people, while the real monsters are two of the "normal" members of the circus who conspire to murder one of the performers to obtain his large inheritance.

I've never heard that particular expression either, but it's certainly a possibility.

The speaker isn't suggesting a real ejaculation. It's an exaggeration for emphasis to make a point. It means a father who is much too interested, in a sexual sense, in his son's girlfriends.

Other possibilities:

come in his pants/jeans
blow his wad
