Men like foreplay (researchers astounded)
• Erotic Technique
Can't help but smile at the funny numbers questionnaire research pulls up. A different batch of respondents, a slight twist of wording and who know what the results would be. Well here are some fun statistics from the oddball world of heterosexuality.
Contrary to what many sex therapists have believed up until now, men want foreplay to last as long as women do.
And when it comes to actual sexual intercourse, men are the ones who want it to last longer, the study indicates.
"We were quite floored," said Andrea Miller, a doctoral student in clinical psychology at the Fredericton UNB campus.
She and senior author Dr. Sandra Byers, chairwoman of UNB Fredericton's psychology department, found that both the men and the women in their survey said their ideal sexual encounter should include 18 minutes of foreplay.
When it came to actual intercourse, the women said 14 minutes was their ideal while the men wanted 18 minutes.
