Sex for 10 minutes is just about perfect, say researchers

"Sexual marathons lasting all night are boring but 10 minutes is just about perfect for most people, researchers have concluded."

Despite what hollywood and the porn industry would have us believe we really do like shorter sex sessions. Don't get me wrong, an all nighter is great but some nights I'd just like to get it over with so i can get to sleep. Sad but true

I agree with that. A good 15 to 20 minutes of foreplay and then 10 minutes of actual intercourse works fine for me most days. The occasional marathon night is nice, but if it was like that every night I could see it getting to be too much.

I agree with the researchers. I like the idea of short time sex if I'm with an experienced partner. In fact, it sounds challenging for me because 10 minutes is very quick. I used to have sex 30 to 40 minutes including foreplay. If I'm with a lousy sex partner, I guess it takes an hour.
