How Long?

It depends on my mood. Sometimes I'm super horny, and will want a quicky (this will be in the 1 to 2 minutes category)

And sometimes I want it to be slow with kissing in between, and perhaps a different position or two - this will take longer )perhaps 5 minutes or so of piv.

I have to agree though, if it goes on and on and on, I get bored, my mind begins to stray, I make grocery lists....... you get the picture
 
I've never had any type of sexual activity with any man/woman/child/TS/dead/plastic doll,
So I'm not technically qualified to post in your thread.


but I'm sure this is going to be the most lurked/viewed thread on HT, lol :D
 
At least five minutes for a quickie. For the non-quickie, how much time you got? After foreplay, I would like ten minutes in a couple of positions, so maybe something like 20 to 30 minutes?
 
:eek: Unless there had been some extreme foreplay beforehand, there's no way I could come in less than 7 minutes, and usually I'm more near the 30 minute mark.
 
After reading this ground breaking research, I thought I'd pose the question here.

How long must PIV sex last to be satisfactory?

1-2 minutes
3-7 minutes
7-13 minutes
10-30 minutes

I'm with the 7-13 minutes group. I *can* orgasm in less than 7 minutes, and sometimes, if foreplay is good enough, I've orgasmed immediately upon penetration.

When sex goes on too long, I dry up and it's uncomfortable. You've probably got me on my back for about 15 minutes before I'm *done* with it.

HOWEVER

I'd really prefer lots and lots of play, 7 minutes of PIV, more play, 7 more minutes of PIV, more play, 7 more minutes of PIV, etc, all day long or until I pass out or get hungry. No, we're not eating in bed, there's crumbs.

And yes, moods always alter the 'norm'
 
I'll lump the middle categories together for 3-13 minutes, depending on the situation.

I usually orgasm before intercourse, and can always have one after, so even a few minutes can be just fine or just right. If we're going for slower sex or trying for subsequent orgasms, somewhere around 10 minutes is usually perfect.

Anything longer than that can get boring, painful and/or make me wonder what's going on with him. I had a partner that always lasted 10+ minutes due to his antidepressant, and it was frustrating for both of us, so I'm glad my husband is more likely to be quicker and able to hold off some, than slower and always have to try to hurry up.
 
Too many variables. Older women tend to reach orgasm quicker than younger women. "Experienced" women (regardless of age) are more likely to direct traffic, and therefor ae more likely to set pace, etc. I'm not sure about other men, but I try to last at least 15 minutes.
 
at least....

Including foreplay, 30 minutes.... I can orgasm fairly quickly but often..... Spending some time on the "journey" to the "destination" makes it even better.........;)

....although, a "quickie" is never out of the question...if I am super horny, it only takes a couple of minutes.........

It all depends on what we're doing. For a quickie, 5-10mins. If he's fucking me slowly, I can enjoy anything up to half an hour of PIV sex and being a painslut I can tolerate, gain a degree of enjoyment and continue climaxing from far more than that.

As an average, regardless of how we're playing, I'd say anything up to half an hour is fine and dandy and I'll be lucky enough to climax multiple times.

If we're talking PIA sex though, it's a whole different set of variables.

And PIV and Vibe/DildoIA? Again, very different timescales.

All flies when you're having fun though. :D
 
How long have you got Nipsey? I don't mean size. ;)

I really like Chicklet's reply -- really like it.
 
I have to take a different approach to responding to this thread. I don't equate pleasure with a time limit. When my wife and I are really in the mood it can be very intense in a short amount of time. I assume we're like any other couple, sometimes we like it slow and gentle and other times we like it fast and hard. We've both cum in a matter of minutes and we've also went about 10 minutes, but it makes her very sore. I can usually tell if its going to take me a while to cum and if so, I'll usually withdraw after she's had an orgasm and we'll finish by other means, so she's not sore.

i'm sure its normal but i cant orgasm through intercourse unless he's on top in the standard missionary and laying directly on me with his head on my shoulder. but can orgasm like that several times in a matter of a few minutes.

i honestly prefer 20-30 or more with my boyfriend. He's slightly bent so he's able to keep me wet, unlike my last partners. We switch positions a lot also so i'm sure that has a factor on why he's able to last so long..
 
taking your time .... enjoying the scenery .... stopping here and there
 
Stopping here and there to capture the beauty of the mountainside......breathing in the fresh air......

To be honest, I've never timed myself ... never had time to start the clock! :eek: :D ;) ;)

In all seriousness, I'd probably fall into the 7 to 10 minute range, however I too like chicklet's idea of "go, break, go, break, ..." and have done that on occasion. However, the girlfriend usually has other ideas which doesn't involve a change in play. Once she's rev'd up, it's time to get to work, no more messing around! :D

Go on, at least try a plastic doll. And masturbation must count, in some way or other.

To answer the question, time seems to stand still, a quicky can 'lose' 45 minutes easily. There's so much more to sex though, having said that PIV must be generally at least 10 mins of it. I'd stay in all day, but life gets in the way doesn't it?
 
Well I often end up with my bf in car or a closet, and it genrally is in range of 10-14 minutes.

There had been very interesting replies!
 
It depends. Sometimes just 2-3 minutes, sometimes up to 10-15 minutes. Anything more than that will probably start to get uncomfortable.
 
Actual PIV? No more than fifteen minutes; sometimes I stop lubricating as well at about twelve or so minutes. Had an ex who spent way too much time on the PIV stuff. I prefer lots of time on the foreplay.
