Superb Opinion

  • In my case, I am possibly a rare guy, and my current gal is probably a rare girl. It takes me a very long time to reach orgasm (between 15 and 30 minutes on average), and she usually gets there in under five minutes. Also, she actually does not want vaginal or oral sex to take so long, which puts a little bit of pressure on me as I take more time then she would like to finally ejaculate. I usually hear about guys not being able to last more than two or three minutes, and gals always wanting sex to last longer. In our case is the exact opposite!

  • I'm a virgin so I don't know how long I should last but if I had to guess, it should probably be until they both cum. I've heard the womans orgasm is a myth though. I've never had an orgasm either. I don't want to masturbate

  • Short like less than 15min.

    That's why I always try to make foreplay as long as possible and must include a lot of oral

    • So you wouldn’t include oral in sex?

    • @Th3ft What do you mean

    • Sorry! I mean like you wouldn’t include oral in the definition of sex… and then I went and did the same so it was a pretty dumb question. Hahaha

  • 5-15 mintues for sex. Foreplay different tho cause that could last all day

    • Wish I had time for all day foreplay more often.

    • I sometimes have all self foreplay!

    • All DAY - that is

  • Most of the time 10 to 15 min...(sex only)
    Foreplay can last 40 or more mins

  • For my wife and I, foreplay can last over an hour, the actual sex closer to 10 minutes, and of course that varies.

  • I think it all depends on the person for me ineed and want lots of foreplay we all have an energy within us and if it is compatible with another energy it's one of the most beautiful feelings in the world and you want to take it to the deepest point you can I want to take the girl to that fine line of orgasm or not I want to drag her over to the orgasm side and then bring her back over to the orgasm side bring her back it just write that fine line just to get it more and more intense until you're both ready to explode and sometimes that takes a lot of time sometimes it takes very little time but no matter what I have to take her there I enjoy making it all about the girl and I do whatever it takes for her to fill something different or something new and that she's never felt before

  • 10 to 15 for me. There are quickies of course.

    • Which do you prefer quickies or a long drawn out sex session! I think quickies can be amazingly fun and satisfying and then I do like to take my time at times and with prolonged edging until we both are no longer to stand it!

    • It really just depends on the situation but overall I like normal length sex. I just love foreplay and taking time.

    • Oh me too

  • I don't know how to answer your question. Probably seven or eight minutes for most people. I know I've spoken to a lot of women and 15 to 20 minutes it's plenty for them. Of course there are some that want to go for hours. Everybody's different

  • I mean it’s like 10-15 minutes of sex but the fore play usually bumps it up to an hour to three. Haha!

  • It just depends on when the timer starts. Like if we were talking about it like during dinner and we both said yes I would prefer to start the timer right then. If that's the case, probably about an hour. But if you wanted to start the timer right at first penetration I would say like 2 1/2 hours... Oops. Damn autocorrect. Sorry, it should have said pumps. So like 2 1/2 pumps.

  • I think i wear the guy out first.

  • @sharonhere96 To me it can be between from 7-8 minutes to up to 20 minutes depends on Mood and excitement... Boring sex lasts very long 🤣

  • We have brief encounters because our work schedules are misaligned but when we have time for sex it's a few hours to all day.
    I can only cum once and I always cum last... unless she cums from my "cleanup duties" after.

  • Depends if you choose to cum or hold it forever long you want.

  • 15 mins I’d say. Longer sometimes and shorter. But I don’t cum before my partner.

  • You can have sex more times per day if you have quickies.

    But with unlimited time i like a solid hour to hour and a half. That leaves times for more unique things. Probably too long if you're vanilla but if 20 minutes is spent chaining your girl to the wall and then cock slapping her face and spanking her pussy... i still need a good hour of power pounding to make my nut awesome. So it goes by fast.

  • I can make it last if she’s not getting hers.

  • 30 to 40 minutes first go

  • Different people have different terminology

    To me sex is the entire episode of intimacy instead of just the intercourse

    And so indeed, the longer the better

  • Much shorter than they admit. Actual intercourse average is 5 min 36 sec. Nobody is doing it for hours... please.. :- D

    • No idea do ya

  • 10 to 15 mins sometimes maybe 30 if we slow it down some

  • Anywhere between 10 minutes to an hour. Depends on the meed :-)
    Sometimes I like to play longer, sometimes I want to get to it as quickly as possible.

  • till both won't feel its enough.
