I’ve never really thought of myself as a “talent” in this area myself but I’ve been told it is. I’ve never actually kept count but I know it’s not uncommon for me (at least when the relationship is new) to go more than seven times is one night. (to be precise over the course of about 4 to 6 hours) I’m just curious how uncommon or common this is. It’s important I know this before I decide if I should inflate my ego or not. (heh, heh) Guys chime in with your stamina ability too. I’m 37 if that means anything. ---

Dude, quantity doesn’t count for more than quality. I’d rather go solid for a couple of hours, have a break and then go for another couple of hours, than have 8 quickies. I mean, I guess it’s good that Shakes Jr. can bounce back quickly, but I’m not sure I think it would be particularly satisfying. Dunno. I think my record for an entire day (morning till night) is probably 7 or 8 times, but the first time my SO and I got it on we only did it three times in the same about of time, but each time lasted a lot longer, and was a lot more satisfying. ---

Could we do a combination poll? I’ve never really thought of myself as being unusually well endowed, but some women have told me that i am. I’ve never actually taken out a ruler and measured it, but it’s pretty close to 11 inches (to be precise: when measured from the top side). I’m just curious how uncommon or common this is. It’s important I know this before I decide if I should inflate my ego or not. (heh, heh) Guys chime in with your length too. I’m 38 if that means anything. ---

**Silenus** and I finally met face to face in 2002. We got to know each other through emails, instant messaging and phone calls for over 6 months. We were ready. Truth be told…we “did it” (basic intercourse with the aroused male inside the aroused female’s nether-regions…okay vagina) at least 6 times in a 12 hour period. This was from around 5pm to 5am and we did a whole lot more besides the basic as noted above. May I ask what you meant by 7 times in a night? Did she show satisfaction each time or are you counting it as yours? just wondering. Also…are you counting ejaculation on your part or orgasm on hers? These are very tricky things if you are intent upon keeping count. So…You’re good, dude. For us…the night was memorable because we were aroused and excited by each other’s company and were able to go for 12 hrs. With very little rest periods in-between…even though that may have meant a lot of foreplay and in-between play…but it was play and it was sex and it was good, so there. ---

Can I throw in my question too? When I get to lovin’ the ladies, I routinely shoot sperm so manly and virile that two or more babies immediately pop out of her a few minutes after I pull out. Also, I can usually only get the head of my 25-inch penis in before the lady in question starts to complain about internal bleeding. Is this normal? ---

Indeed. May I refer anyone with any further questions [here](http://xkcd.com/194/). And **mhendo** , just in case you had any seriousness to your post, I believe average is about 5 inches. I don’t know about the average length, however. nono, seriously, from vague statistics I remember reading in various places 5 inches is average, but I don’t remember any of them talking about girth, which is arguably a more important dimension. But nobody likes the choad. ---

I might have been smart when I was a kid, but really the thing that got me in trouble was my monstrous penis. Even though I tried to sit in the back corner and avoid notice, I still accidentally erased the blackboard from time to time. In the class down the hall. ---

I had a troubled time at school - I was disciplined for using my cock to solve partial differential equations on the blackboard… of the high school next door… when I was in the infants’. And of course that was pre-puberty. ---

Quality matters more over quantity. However, I have been fortunate to have both. I would say that my previous beau and I did the deed (and more besides) eleven times in an eight hour period. In fact, the chemistry was phenomenal. It was like kids in a candy store. Constant and intense lovemaking left us wanting more. I know we both welcomed the many “stamina” challenges. (We are both in our late thirties.) As long as you are both enjoying yourselves…I say go for it! ---

Semen retention. Taught as a trick for daoists and in tantric yoga, some guys do it naturally. The SO happens to be one of those, tested empirically many times as he’ll have an orgasm during a BJ but nothing but the smallest dribble actually emerges. [Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orgasm) addresses this: > [@Wikipedia article on orgasm](#): > > It is possible for a man to have an orgasm without ejaculation (dry orgasm) or to ejaculate without reaching orgasm. Some men have reported having multiple consecutive orgasms, particularly without ejaculation. Males who experience dry orgasms can often produce multiple orgasms, as the refractory period, is reduced.[15] Some males are able to masturbate for hours at a time, achieving orgasm many times.[15] In recent years, a number of books have described various techniques to achieve multiple orgasms. Most multi-orgasmic men (and their partners) report that refraining from ejaculation results in a far more energetic post-orgasm state.[citation needed] Additionally, some men have also reported that this can produce more powerful ejaculatory orgasms when they choose to have them. So it actually has nothing to do with your skills as a lover, it’s just a physiological party trick that you got lucky on. It’s fun, no doubt about it but it still doesn’t let you off the hook to learn how to fuck well. As a matter of fact whereas the short refractory period allows the guy to keep going it can still be frustrating for the female as he’ll build to orgasm and fire off but it can nevertheless be premature for her and he’ll still have to slow down to accomodate post orgasm hypersensitivity. If she was right on the edge when he went over she can lose her happy thoughts but in the case of a multi-orgasmic man it’s possible for her to experience the joy of premature ejaculation over and over and over! So yeah, still on the hook to figure out how to chill out until she’s past the point of giving a shit what you’re doing as long as you keep doing it! ---

Well, if you are going by her orgasms to determine 7 times in one night I would have to ask what is standard for her? I am multiorgasmic. The most orgasms I have had in one night is 37, the least would be 0, but average for me would be somewhere between 5 and 8. My best friend has a lot of trouble having an orgasm. Often times she doesn’t finish at all but enjoys the whole sexual experience so it doesn’t really matter to her. Her average would probably be 1, if that. If she and I both had the exact same sexual experience that you describe she would say to me, “Oh my goodness, I came 7 times! That was so great I almost passed out!” Then I would say to her, “Oh, well, I came 7 times too but that isn’t anything out of the ordinary. I was hoping for more than that but you can’t win’em all, you know?” [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ladies-how-many-times-in-one-night-is-impressive/441324.md?page=2)
