Sex Survey Asks How Long Should You Last In Bed
One more minute may be the difference between an 'adequate' lover and an unsatisfactorily short performer, according to a new survey published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine. 
The survey of sex therapists found that three to seven minutes was 'adequate' time for sexual intercourse between a man and a woman, while, just one minute shorter, two minutes or less was 'too short'.
A 'desirable' time was to last seven to 13 minutes, according to the survey, although you're at risk of going 'too long' at somewhere between 10 and 30 minutes.
Study authors led by Eric Corty from Pennsylvania State University concluded that most people have 'unrealistic' expectations about sexual performance.
"The results from the present study, by providing a realistic not a fantasy model of sexuality, are useful both in treating people with sexual concerns and dysfunctions, and, with wider circulation, in preventing the onset of sexual dysfunctions," the study said of its aim.
Researchers surveyed 50 members of the Society for Sex Therapy and Research in the U.S. and Canada, selected randomly from a group of 180 with at least three years of clinical experience.
