How long does the LONGEST sexual intercourse last?
The length of sexual intercourse has always been the subject of much debate … and lovemaking!
Indeed, time seems to be a decisive criterion in the success of sexual intercourse, especially from a man’s point of view. Some find that time passes too slowly, others too quickly; so the notion of time varies from person to person and from habit to habit.
Of course, there are ups and downs, but what is the average?
What would be the normal duration of sexual intercourse?
The question is rather ambiguous, and the answer is quite complicated! It’s somewhere between too much and too little, between staying hungry and wanting more!
From there, an annoying frustration can quickly set in, leaving an aftertaste of unfinished business.
Contrary to the stories about lovemaking that goes on for hours, a symbol of uncommon virility, it’s important for you to know that the longer it goes on (we’re not talking about penises here LOL!), the worse it gets!
Facts and figures!
It’s also important to differentiate between ‘what you want’ and ‘what you can’ do! Experiments were carried out on a hundred couples in the United States to assess not the maximum duration, but the ideal duration as estimated by these couples. The couples in question ranked the duration according to the following timings: “Brief” “Satisfactory” “Too slow and long”.
- From one to two minutes, intercourse was obviously considered relatively brief and short
- From three to seven minutes, the report was considered good or even satisfactory.
- From seven to thirteen minutes, the act was rated as good and desirable
- Well beyond thirteen minutes, the act dragged on and on, and was rather “Boring, Slow and Long”.
To sum up, according to this study, seven to thirteen minutes is the ideal length of sexual intercourse, far from the clichés imposed and propagated by the porn industry! It’s worth pointing out, however, that some people have experienced pleasure after just two or three minutes!
What about foreplay?
When it comes to foreplay, it’s a different kettle of fish altogether. Many people tend to get straight to the point and don’t take the time to preheat the oven before putting the meat in, if you’ll pardon the expression. And yet, when properly conducted, these preliminaries can help you prepare for and reach an orgasm more quickly, thereby reducing the duration and increasing the quality of the romp.
In short, what is the ideal duration of a complete and successful sexual romp?
To put it simply, it’s a good idea to spend about ten minutes on foreplay, and about 7 minutes on getting down to business! If you really want to make the foreplay last, make sure you don’t exceed 30 minutes of foreplay and 7 to 15 minutes of penetration! Otherwise, intercourse will become relentless and no pleasure will be felt by either partner. It should be noted, however, that these figures are only indicative. The rule of thumb would be to reserve 2/3 of the total duration for foreplay. But, in the end, it’s up to the couple to decide how much of this time they want to spend together, following their “feeling” without falling into monotony and boredom!
In conclusion, the ideal and desirable length of time is that which satisfies and suits both partners equally. For fulfilling sexual activity, don’t compare yourself to pornographic films and articles! The actors in these productions are obliged to prolong their lovemaking for the sake of profit!

Quality over quantity: it’s important to take your time, and it’s up to you to decide what suits you best.
