How long should sex last?

We have always been wondering how long is considered to be the best when it comes to that time, 

Experts say, one or two minutes is “two less” for women and 10 to 30 minutes is “too long” Therefore, 7 to 13 minutes is “desirable”                        
If sex is important to you, you should know that foreplay and after play is also important     

Here at Langtrees, our Private Escorts can Assist you to last as long as you would like! That is one of the best parts for all women (women should comment if they find this matching) 

According to a study in 2005, a Global examination where heterosexual couples were participants, they were asked to time sex from penetration through to male ejaculation. 

The team discovered that reports under these extremely constrained limits ranged from 33 seconds to 44 minutes, with an average session lasting 5.4 minutes.

Other researchers have asked people who diagnose and treat sexual diseases in an effort to determine a "normal" duration.

In 2008, research was done in order to estimate the typical length of sex across various categories.  Researchers and Sex Therapists in the US and Canada were among some of the people to answer the questions and they found the following information:

When asked about sex, the therapists said:

  • When sex lasts less than 3 minutes, this is a cause for clinical concern
  • Sex that lasts 3 to 7 minutes is considered “adequate”
  • Sex that lasts 7 to 13 minutes is considered “desirable”
  • Sex that lasts 10 to 30 minutes is considered “too long”

One woman said her ideal was 10-15 minutes of foreplay and 10 minutes of intercourse: “I find I get rather impatient in bed, or perhaps I just haven’t met someone worth taking more time.” Another said, “I feel like this sounds short, but honestly 5-10 mins plus like 15-ish minutes of foreplay and I love to use toys.” Another woman said, “I generally like sex to last 15-20 minutes, with intercourse being like maybe a quarter of that.” Two women and one nonbinary woman answered that their ideal sex session including foreplay would last an hour or so—which seems like an endeavour! Good for them!

“I guess to me it depends on the partner. If you are both enjoying your time together then I guess it is likely to last a bit longer. Particularly if you can create a good rapport with a W/L I have been lucky to be able to do this with a few I have interacted with over time”

“I often have clients ask if they have ejaculated too quickly, feeling embarrassed by their few minutes of stamina. I always let them know that the most important thing is for both people to be having a good time. Ok so you came before her, that doesn't mean the act needs to end. Please her in other ways, toys, touch, mouth. I've had sessions that have lasted 5 minutes, and sessions that have lasted 3 hours. I was able to enjoy myself during both sessions because my bed partner and I were in the moment, wanting each other to enjoy themselves, not just focusing on his orgasm as the end goal. ”

“Great blog .. personally lasting during sex depends on two when in tango, sometimes the chemistry is just so strong and hot that I can’t hold it during foreplay , and sometimes is so magical I can hold off but the climax is just out of this world.. definitely lasting to a point that both parties enjoy themselves is what I think suitable but case by case .. Great blog by the way ”

“I really appreciate how this blog provides a thoughtful and balanced perspective on sex duration. It’s refreshing to see a discussion that moves beyond the pressure of unrealistic expectations and instead focuses on the importance of communication, intimacy, and personal connection in a healthy sexual relationship. The tips and insights shared are practical, and the emphasis on mutual enjoyment is exactly what many people need to hear. It’s a great reminder that quality matters more than quantity. Thank you Anna ”

“This was such a fun and interesting read! It’s cool to see actual research on how long sex typically lasts and what’s considered “ideal”. The breakdown of different opinions and preferences really shows how everyone’s needs and experiences can vary and that there is no real answer to the question. I also love the reminder that foreplay and afterplay are just as important as the main event - so true! Plus, the shoutout to Langtrees’ escorts being able to help you hit your goals is a cheeky little bonus.”

“I love how the post mentions that some people are all about that hour-long session—talk about dedication! ? Whether it's 5 minutes or 30, it's all about what works for you, and foreplay can totally make it a game changer!”

“Wow, this blog really spoke to me. I’ve always been curious about topics like this but never really knew where to start or how to approach them. Reading this felt like having a genuine conversation with someone who truly understands the complexities of life and relationships. One part that really stuck with me was [insert a specific part of the blog if you want to mention something specific]. It reminded me of my own journey, and honestly, it’s refreshing to see someone address these things so openly and without judgment. Thank you for putting this out there—it’s not just insightful but also makes readers like me feel seen and understood. Looking forward to more content like this!”

“This is an interesting and insightful post! It’s fascinating to see how perspectives on the "ideal" duration of sex can vary so much. The emphasis on foreplay is spot on, intimacy is about more than just the act itself. The variety of responses from individuals highlights how important communication and understanding are in creating a fulfilling experience for everyone involved. Ultimately (as other people have already pointed out)- there’s no one size fits all answer, and the “ideal” is whatever feels right for you and your partner(s).”

“It really depends on the people involved and what feels right for them. Communication and understanding are essential for a satisfying experience for both partners. It should be about quality and connection rather than a specific time frame. Just focus on enjoying the moment and each other's company!”

“When I started working 45 years ago, I was asked to start immediately, with only one other girl on shift...I asked for any help on how to do this...she said if the penetrative sex lasted longer than 5 minutes, I was doing something wrong. She said to use foreplay, and he would think he had been at it the whole hour. I became a bit of a clock watcher; hence, I have never allowed myself to be in our rooms as you can learn time through the service you provide. The massage was always 1/3rd of the service, and many a time, clients ejaculated whilst I was massaging and doing body slides.”

“Age, experience, the excitement of a new encoiunter or the fulfilment of familiar territory all play a major role in determining duration. A few minutes or a long session can be just as satisfying. It is definitely not a one size fits all scenario. ”

“I love how you explained that those times were until male ejaculation and how that is 'extremely constrained.' I wonder how the data would be different for lesbian, gay or queer couples. Definitely food for thought”

Aurora Love LT commented

“As a working lady, I believe that the duration of sex should always be tailored to the individual’s needs and preferences. It’s not just about timing but also about creating a connection, intimacy, and ensuring both people enjoy the experience. Foreplay, communication, and mutual respect are just as important as the act itself in making the experience memorable. Every person is unique, and I aim to ensure that I provide a fulfilling and enjoyable time for each client. ”

Jodie commented

“If you can hold on and make it last, it makes it more pleasurable. It is everyone's choice, sometimes we just want a quick one. Sometimes we want to draw it out, this is when we want lots of foreplay, lots of tounge. I prefer 30-40 mins, it just depends how much free time I have. Life is really busy, it's all about how much time you have at this moment.”

“I remember the only advice I got when I started working was it should not last longer than 5 minutes but the bloke should think he had lasted 30 minutes.”
