Having a debate with my girlfriend here and I’m feeling a little robbed.
So heres the “hypothetical” question:
A couple are making out; your basic foreplay; kissing and what not for about 15 minutes. Then thay have the actual get down and funky sex for about another 20-25 minutes.
So I say the couple had “sex” for about 35-40 minutes.
She says bullshit they only had sex for about 20-25 minutes.
So what the hell? Foreplay doesn’t count? We’re just supposed to pretend that its not an important part of the entire act itself?
Silly debate I know, but I’m still curious what peoples take on this is…
I would say include it. If someone says they made love for hours, or got it on all night long, I sure HOPE it’s not straight intercourse for that long. Yikes, that sounds extremely unapplealing. Chafe much?
I think it depends on what sort of foreplay it is. Just kissing doesn’t count as sex in my book, so if you’re kissing for a few hours and then go from 2nd to home plate in 10 minutes, I’d say you had sex for 10 minutes. But “foreplay” is a pretty broad term (insert jokes about pretty broads here) and some of it is absolutely sexual. Is oral sex foreplay? Some would say yes, some no. I’d say having oral sex for an hour followed by 30 minutes of thrusting counts as an hour and a half of sex, regardless of what your girlfriend thinks. But it’s all just semantics.
Well, it depends on what “foreplay” is specifically, but I actually figured it the same way as your girlfriend. It’s easy not to finish if the penis isn’t directly stimulated, so that time wouldn’t count in our favor. If we can keep going while getting a bj/intercourse, then we start getting credit.
We usually go for an hour to an hour an a half. That’s usually about half heavy foreplay and half actual penetration. That is an hour and a half of sex.
Kissing on the couch for two hours and then having sex for 15 minutes is having sex for 15 minutes.
When your girlfriend rips your clothes off after ten minutes of intimate embrace and you fulfill her every desire for the next four hours, who gives a tinker’s dam about the ten minutes?
Wait… let me retract that. Why is it that anyone’s discussing the duration of a blissed coupling?
Well, let’s get this out in the open right now. I hate to break it to women but, thrusting penis inside pussy just doesn’t take that long to achieve ultimate pleasure.
Foreplay definately counts. Teasing, role playing, intimate touching in dangerously public places, even talking colorfully while doing the dishes count. If you do it right, you should be able to have sexual relations for up to 72 hours.
The idea Anything which could (or has in the past) result in orgasm by either party counts as sex. Anything which gets (or has in the past) either party more ready for sex counts as forplay.
Woman here. Yeah, foreplay counts; at least, I’ve always counted it in the “how many minutes” sex lasts. Once you both mutually decide that you’re gonna do it and get nekkid, that’s when the clock starts.
Personally, checking the clock is usually about the last thing on my mind.
Seriously - do people really keep track of this sort of thing? I find it annoying enough to track the time I spend on tasks at work - why would I want to do the same with something that’s enjoyable?
