NEW YORK (AP) -- Maybe men had it right all along: It doesn't take
long to satisfy a woman in bed.
It's difficult for men of all ages to make sexual intercourse last
much longer, a psychologist says.
A survey of sex therapists concluded the optimal amount of time for
sexual intercourse was 3 to 13 minutes. The findings, to be published
in the May issue of the Journal of Sexual Medicine, strike at the
notion that endurance is the key to a great sex life.
If that sounds like good news to you, don't cheer too loudly. The time
does not count foreplay, and the therapists did rate sexual
intercourse that lasts from 1 to 2 minutes as "too short."
Researcher Eric Corty said he hoped to ease the minds of those who
believe "more of something good is better, and if you really want to
satisfy your partner, you should last forever."
The questions were not gender-specific, said Corty. But he said prior
research has shown men and women want foreplay and sexual intercourse
to last longer.
Dr. Irwin Goldstein, editor of the Journal of Sexual Medicine, cited a
four-week study of 1,500 couples in 2005 that found the median time
for sexual intercourse was 7.3 minutes. (Women in the study were armed
with stopwatches.)

Hmmm ... if you listen to groups of women talking
amongst themselves, you'd be convinced that 95% of
men were actually "60-second wonders" and with
skills inferior to the average babboon. Are they
exaggerating, or is this study flawed ?
Probably means the schools should have REAL 'sex-ed',
for the benifit of future generations of women
long to satisfy a woman in bed.
