How Long Should A Guy Last In Bed?

A couple weeks ago, I ran across a research paper that inadvertently answered one of those awkward questions that so few people get the chance to talk about: How long does the average man last in bed? I was particularly interested in this study because men’s prowess in the bedroom is often exaggerated, and this study provided an opportunity to shed some light on the truth. The study is (sadly) locked behind a paywall, so I’ll do my best to reproduce the results here.

You see, these researchers were actually studying premature ejaculation. To do so, they recruited about 500 random heterosexual couples from The Netherlands, Spain, Turkey, the UK, and the US and asked them to track the duration of their sexual encounters using a timer and diary. The researchers asked the couples to start the timer as soon as vaginal penetration occurred, and stop the timer as soon as the man ejaculated. Quite romantic, as you might imagine.

After 4 weeks of stop watches and sex diaries, the researchers followed up with the couples to collect the diaries and ask them various demographic questions. Below, I’ve plotted the distribution of how long each man lasted before orgasming (averaged over all his encounters).

To provide a more succinct view of the data, I also created a box plot to summarize the distribution:

The average (median) time before orgasm was about 6 minutes, and ranged from a blissful 6 seconds to a marathon-paced 53 minutes. The majority of men lasted between 4 to 11 minutes, with anyone lasting longer than 21 minutes being considered an outlier.

What I found particularly interesting about this study was the men’s tendency to overestimate the duration of their sexual encounters: According to the authors, the men’s estimates averaged about 1.9 minutes longer than they really were—about a 31% overestimation over the 6-minute average—which really highlights our tendency to overestimate our performance in the bedroom.

So, there we have it. Our collective fascination with hours-long romps in the bedroom doesn’t really hold up in the data, and most couples are probably quite happy for it. Hopefully studies like this one will help us ground our expectations in reality, rather than trying to live up to fantasy.

Barcelona should sign Neymar over Griezmann - Rivaldo

A Camp Nou legend believes a fellow Brazilian would be a more logical signing for the Liga champions than a World Cup winner at Atletico Madrid Barcelona have been advised to shelve any interest in Antoine Griezmann and instead look to bring Neymar back to the club, with Rivaldo seeing a move for the Brazilian making more sense. Those at Camp Nou are currently mulling over their options for the summer transfer window. A new frontman is considered to figure prominently on their wish list, with several options being mooted. Griezmann, as a long-standing target, was expected to be snapped up after requesting a switch away from Atletico Madrid. No approach has been made, though, for the French World Cup winner. That is leaving the door open for others, with Neymar having been linked with a retracing of his steps to Catalunya from Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain. Barca legend Rivaldo told Betfair on the approach he would take: “If I...

Scooper Spirituality: Why Comedy In The Church Is Highly Improper

We live in a time where morals and values are being dumbed down consistently to suit people's moral decadence. If there's a place that shouldn't be influenced by all this, it should be the Church. The Church is more than just a physical representation of the Christian religion, it ought to be a sanctified ground that exudes holiness and purity. But just like the outside world, the church is dumbing down its values and allowing certain practices that are associated with the world to take place in the church. On the 7th of December, The House On The Rock Church put together the 13th edition of its annual Experience gospel concert. This year's edition had over 700,000 people in attendance and dignitaries such as the major gubernatorial candidates for Lagos state Jimi Agbaje (PDP) and Jide Sanwo-Olu (APC) were in attendance. This gospel event was hosted by Banky W and Richard Mofe Damijo and had comedians like Akpororo to "entertain" the crowd. I...
