About this episode
A few months ago we ran an episode on how long people have sex for, and referenced an American study from the 2000s which found that the ideal length for most people is between 7 and 13 minutes. Now that’s probably less than what a lot of you might think, but it’s proof that quick sex can often be just as satisfying as a drawn out love-making session. And let’s be honest - often we don’t really have much of a choice. Finding any more than 15 minutes to be intimate with your partner can be a challenge, depending on how busy your daily schedule is and whether you’ve got kids who need your attention. Still, the quickie is a great way for couples to keep their sex lives exciting; it’s fast and spontaneous, and it can happen anytime, anywhere. So let’s run through a few tips to help you get the most out of your quick sex! Does a quickie always mean penetration? How can I keep things spontaneous when I have to fit quick sex into such a small time window? What if my partner or I just aren't in the mood? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
