Forum - Sex takes 3 to 13 minutes, study says

Read the Associated Press story here:

Unfortunately, the article says little more than the paragaraph quoted above.

I wonder what people think of this.

A very nice book by Paulo Coelho which is dedicated to sex and of course love, is called so: The Eleven Minutes. It's interesting and easy to read, i just remembered it because here is some info about minutes too.

I guess it's ok for some; if they want quickies. Quickies can be fun; but I love the adventure of longer sex just enjoying every moment of it! It's very exhilerating and burns a lot more calories too!

The longer the intellectual "foreplay" the longer the physical foreplay and the longer and, better, the sex.

I agree with you on that paul! The intellectual part of foreplay and foreplay itself is important in having great sex.

Can you tell what is the length of a typical quickie. It's interesting, I used to ask for some info but getting it here firsthand is very useful anyway.

Hi Letusdoit,
For me, a quickie is like 30min. For others it may be shorter or longer depending on what they like.

Generally a "quickie" is refered to as a "Wham Bamm, thank you mamm.

Yes, it generally means what you were saying paul. Although, when I had been in a couple different relationships in the past; my boyfriends' at the time wanted to have quickies sometimes on lunch breaks and at other convenient times when we could. I also had longer periods of time of sex with past boyfriends'as well. Usually, I prefer longer periods of sex because it's more fulfilling. I hope you have a very good week ahead too.

12pleaseU,
I don't disagree with you at all. There have been times with former gf's and my 1st wife while at parties or on a picnic we went into the bathroom and fucked our brains out for all of five minuets. I remember one time when I was in the hospital my gf and I left my room and went to another empty wing and went into the restroom and fucked for about 4 mins and upon returning to my room the nurse was upset because I had missed my meds. Some of those quickies were extremly satifying and erotic.

I too had those times as well paul where I would get away with past bf's and it was a lot of fun. Yes, I agree as well with you about it being very erotic. I know it kept my past bf's happy and kept down the tensions and aggravations of every day life. I know I enjoyed it as much as they did too.
Thanks and Kisses,
12pleaseu

I see that we are companions in fortune, 12pleaseu! 30 minutes are not a real intercourse for me but I know that it is commonly not a quickie, it's much longer.

Thanks Kotikkk, I usually like longer times of sex myself. Quickies are ok; but I tend to like the longer times. It seems the longer I am with someone having sex; I get even more turned on and I have many orgasms; and that usually makes me very happy; and it surely makes the other person with me very happy too.

12pleaseu.
How many orgass you have in a quickie? Is it enough for you to reach?

Some women can fall in long multiple orgasms when they have a long sex. Are yu of this sort, 12pleaseu?
:-)
2Letusdoit:
I'll wonder if 30 minutes are not enough at least for one orgasm, but it is a question not of how long but just HOW!
This is so.
