There's more truth to "7 minutes in heaven"

Want great sex? For best results, 7 to 13 minutes is all you need, according to a US survey that looks at the ideal time to have penetrative sex. Even three minutes is considered "adequate". The aim of the study was to provide a realistic model of sexuality that dispels myths that people should be having sex for a long time. That's right Sting... we aren't built to last for hours and hours.

So what do you think? Did they get the timing right?

  • Wait, what...7 MINUTES?!

  • Does 7 minutes include the obligatory post-sex cigarette? If not I could be topping the charts with over ten minutes?

    As long as everyone's happy who's counting the minutes? I think something's not right if you're watching the clock tick down.

  • I do not go as far as counting the minutes but I enjoy four play and I like to make my sex partner have at least one orgasm before my own. I know many man that are very selfish and live their girl in the dust. I am sure not one of those. Sex is so particular from person to person and timing has to do with how sexy and sensual you are. To that point when you are having fun the arousal flies with the time.

  • how many positions is that?

  • That depends on how quickly one can change positions, I reckon.

  • Well I think 7 to 13 is good for a quick morning session.

    But when its time to for my "title bout" I like to just throw on a nice CD and go for it....I find with some nice music in the back ground with at least 12 tracks I can always make it to at least the middle.

  • 7 to 13 minutes... of break time. Use that break time to cuddle, talk with your significant other, get a drink of water, or whatever you need to do. Then it's time to go another 20 to 30 minutes.

    Sex isn't about how long you can go to have great sex without stopping. It about how long you can go after taking a break. You can sustain a sexual atmostphere for hours without actually having sex for that long just by intimate conversation.
  • what?! no way! you need at least an hour worth of footage just to cut a good 20 minute clip!

  • Sometimes less is more.

    Depends on the mood, place, and lighting.

    Mood - may want to take longer if you just watch the "L Word" or something hot and spicy.

    Place - If you are visiting the in-laws, you might want a fast and dirty 5-7 minute sprint to the orgasm line

    Lighting - girls help me out. If there is good lighting, making me feel I look really good.. then IT IS ON TILL I CAN BARELY HOLD MY LEGS UP

  • Hey if you get the deed done in 7 minutes, that means you've got time and energy to go back in for another 7 minutes a little later.

    Honestly though, who cares about the time? When it's business time... itz buzinez tahime! Oooooh.

  • Geez...

    I think maybe if that's all you want - 7 to 13 minutes, but it seems to me to defeat the purpose somewhat.

    I mean, let's say you take a trip to an exotic tropical island. It takes hours of flight to get there. You arrive, step out and take a leak, a few pictures and get back on board the plane by the time it's done refueling. Why? I'm sorry, but unless it's intended to be a quickie stolen out of time, I'm there to explore and enjoy the terrain.

    Maybe it's the choice of partners?

  • Voyager. . .

    I think you have a bunch of sex at 7-12mins intervals.

    So, you get to the island after the long flight, go crazy, have fun. Rest, have some more fun. Rest, have some more fun. rest have some more fun.

    Just make sure it's in a sacreligious bed, sacreligious couch, sacreligious hotel room, sacreligious bathroom floor etc.

  • Sacrilegious, hmm. Is that the trick CarlosIsDown?

    Reminds me of a joke that goes: when I was young, I made love all night, now that I'm old it takes me all night to ...

    Gee, I forgot the punch line. I'm not old by the way.

  • Actually, since you've mentioned it, you should listen to chappel talk about it. I'ts hilarious!

    "How could you!? How could you come?"

    "I was fuckin'! As far as I'm concerned I can't come fast enough!"

  • Best sex? It’s a one-minute wonder!
    All around us, we hear people talk of being capable of "long and hard" sex. Well, believe it or not, most of these talks are nothing but myths. For, the best sex lasts minutes, not hours, says a new survey
