Scientists determined the ideal duration of sex, but made unexpected discoveries

Admit it, you have at least once in your life, asked yourself the question - how long should a normal sexual intercourse last. Everyone has their own point of view on this problem, so scientists decided to approach this topic objectively. After painstaking observations and complex calculations, the truth was born, which we are already free to accept or not, at our discretion. (Careful! Adult content).

Scientists determined the ideal duration of sex, but made unexpected discoveries

If you think that determining the ideal duration of sexual intercourse is a simple task for an uncomplicated observer with a stopwatch, then you are very wrong. First, scientists needed to determine what exactly could be considered sex, from a technical point of view. It was decided to discard preliminary caresses and take into account only the time from the moment of insertion of the penis into the vagina and before ejaculation.

After that, the researchers faced a classic problem known since time immemorial. It turned out that men tend to exaggerate not only the length of their "dignity", but also the time of intercourse. Someone does it intentionally so as not to lose face, and someone completely unconsciously. In fact, even clients of prostitutes do not keep a second-by-second chronometer of their sex, and even more so do not make entries in the "logbook".

But the servants of science did not give up and still carried out their plans. The study involved 500 couples from the USA, the Netherlands, Spain, Turkey and the UK. For the purity of the experiment, they had sex with a stopwatch in their hands for four whole weeks and as a result, truthful results were obtained.

They were amazing and not at all what the professors expected. Sexual intercourse lasted from 33 seconds to 44 minutes, that is, the difference was 80 times! The experiment could be called a failure, because it did not work out exactly the duration of normal sexual intercourse, but not everything is so simple.

As it turned out, neither the use of a condom nor circumcision of the foreskin does not affect the duration of sex. In mature couples, sexual intercourse lasts less than in young people, which does not correspond to the popular myth about "experienced men over 40" who are able to make love for hours.

Before that in University of Albany in In Washington (USA), biologists studied the mechanics of sexual intercourse. Using exact copies of penises and vaginas, as well as "sperm" from corn syrup, the researchers determined that, thanks to the groove around the head, during frictions, the penis works like a piston and pumps fluid out of the vagina. Therefore, if someone else has been there before, the chances of conception from him are significantly reduced.

Scientists also took up such a sphere of a person's personal life as sexual fantasies. The results of this work were also very unexpected.
