Its not "doing" - its humping. Humping has very little to do with dominance, and only a small chance it is a sexual-based behaviour. Most of the time, it is because the dog is anxious or over-excited, and humping is said to help relieve the building stress. It can happen both during play or after nerve-racking events.

Such behaviour can be trained out, either with "Stay/Leave It" commands, or to distract the dog with a favourite toy or playtime activity. Identifying when and where the dog begins humping is ideal, as this helps you avoid these scenarios, or if they are unavoidable, maintain the dog's attention in another way before he becomes too stressed.

2nd ANSWER:

Humping another dog is definitely a sign of dominance. This is the most common sign.

What are the physiological mechanisms behind female erections and how do they differ from male erections?

Female erections, also known as clitoral engorgement, occur when blood flow increases to the clitoris, causing it to become enlarged and sensitive. This is similar to the process of male erections, where blood flow increases to the penis. However, female erections are typically less noticeable and do not result in the same level of rigidity as male erections.
