Not mine. But it’s instructive.
How long does sex last on average?
No, not in porn films, but in the real lives of ordinary people.
Have you ever wondered or heard it from your partner: and we Are we doing it too quickly?
And the topic is so delicate that you can’t ask your friends: “Guys, how long do you usually have sex?” Firstly, they may not answer, secondly, they may call you a pervert, and thirdly, having answered, will they tell you the truth?
Well, at least now there is an answer to this question. And he’s not in the Guinness Book of Records, don’t worry. North American sex therapists conducted a monumental scientific study with a hair-raising title: “American and Canadian sexologists’ perceptions of normal and abnormal delayed ejaculation. How long should sexual intercourse last?”
They interviewed several thousand patients of sex therapists who doubted that they were okay with the duration of sex. Including those who complained about having sex for too long. At the same time, the study included patients who came with other questions not related to the duration of sexual intercourse.
So, on average, sex for most couples lasts... drum roll! Three to seven minutes. And this includes foreplay and so on. The most common duration is 5-7 minutes.
“Oh, dear. Yes, you are my stallion, it’s already the eighth minute!”
Sexologist Barry W. McCarthy explains that there are very few couples whose sex lasts more than 12 minutes. McCarthy adds that you can make sex last longer by getting the hang of what he calls “non-penetrative sex” (another term for manual stimulation).
You can alternate positions, change the rhythm, and pause during intercourse. All this prolongs the process of receiving pleasure. However, if your tumbles regularly end in 5 minutes, you can exhale - this is absolutely normal. If only you both feel good.
By the way, about pornography, which we mentioned at the beginning. Even this has nothing to do with real sex, and in films you see splices from several takes, between which the actors take breaks.
These are scientific studies. And don’t argue. The post is exclusively for dreamers, just facts for those who spend "hours".
