Back to the “99% protected” thing, I know a guy who might beg to differ about this method’s efficacy. His name is Michael, he’s two years old. Boy was his daddy surprised. His daddy said “You know how it is, you don’t have the condom on _all_ the time during sex” and I said “It’s supposed to be on the whole time, are you surprised that she got pregnant?” He said “Of course! Why do you think I’m screaming?!?” It’s highly unlikely, but it does happen. Hell, girls can even get pregnant from …uh liquid transfer between orifi. Soon you will get an “Are you done yet?” Take that moment as your medal of virility. Next time, she wants the usual. Real women need alot less in the sex department than your typical porn star. But they sure like the effort 😉 ---

You’re better safe than sorry. The morning after pill is most effective in the first 72 hours, but it can still provide some protection up to five days later. Check this page out to find out where to get it: [http://ec.princeton.edu/](http://ec.princeton.edu/) ---

That was decades back though and now I remember it more like some fanciful dream. 5 hours and 6 orgasms, myself - but this involved a, uhm, “party” and multiple particpants…and it wasn’t likely to happen again…so I guess I made the most of it…(I was 31 at the time)… …and that’s probably enough information on THAT… ---

An orgasm every 2 minutes, from vaginal penetration? Um, I don’t think so. Certainly not 8 or 10 of them. It’d just be frankly painful by that point, and that fast, even if it could be done… (and I’m giving you some benefit of the doubt here, in case you know a certified nymphomaniac with a hair trigger orgasm). -Khi ---

> [@badmana](#): > > Very strong orgasms stop sex (as a male I can understand how sensitive things get) but “quickie” ones don’t. I can keep going straight through 3 or 4 orgasms with my GF (usually the first few are the strongest, while the others get progressively weaker). The last ones usually take a lot of work and can end up hurting (which is why we aim for 5-6 normally). ooookay… I eat my words. I swear I hadn’t seen this post when I replied, and only noticed it when I was skimming through reading out interesting/amusing posts to my husband. Accordingly, I revise my response to: whatever you do, stay with this woman. 😉 ---

Dude, I’ve discovered that I really like most of your posts, but you seem really unenlightened when it comes to sex. I think sex can be great in 10 min., but I’d be pretty damn disappointed if it always ended that quickly. Changing positions and having more than one orgasm are all part of the fun. An hour straight kinda sounds long, but different strokes, you know? I don’t imagine that he was just missionary banging along the whole time. There was probably “other” stuff involved. 😃 ---

> [@Indygrrl](#): > > Dude, I’ve discovered that I really like most of your posts, but you seem really unenlightened when it comes to sex. What are you, about 21 **Indygrrl**? I haven’t gone – probably – a month without having sex for the past 17 years. I’ve had sex with girls that were 15 (when I was 15) and woman who were 42. I’ve had sex every which way from Sunday in every kind of imaginable way (maybe not EVERY, but a good helping). Currently, I haven’t had sex with anyone except the same person since 1997. If I told you about the sex I had before I was 22, it would probably be right up your alley – tongues and fingertips where they don’t belong, hour long box chows, spanks, smothers, toys, dirty talking, sex, pause, sex again, etc. What I’ve found though, especially in a LTR, is that that kind of silly stuff is hard to keep up with. And regular old sex, performed in a reasonable time frame, with a person you really love is pretty much the best sex going. So, don’t worry about how enlightened I am. I’m far enough enlightened to know I don’t need to lie about it or pretend to be something I’m not in that department. ---

I’m far enough enlightened to know I don’t need to lie about it or pretend to be something I’m not in that department. Believe it or not, people over the age of 21 enjoy longer sexual encounters. Just because you want it to last more than ten minutes doesn’t mean a person is immature. I do have sex with someone I love, very good long-term sex, and we enjoy all the “silly” stuff like taking time with each other and putting things “where they don’t belong.” Some of us old folks still like to use our tongues and fingers, and we believe they belong any damn place you want them to belong. I’m not worried about your level of enlightenment, you can do whatever you want. But when you post opinions of this nature on a public messageboard you should be ready for some feedback. Your comments on the cunnilingus thread were quite negative, as are some of these. It’s totally your own business, but if you don’t want opinions, don’t post it on the boards. ---

Who are these women and how come I don’t know any of them? I am trying to be polite about this but so far I have had no responses from women that convince me this is true or even possible. Maybe I should start a new thread. I’d even be happy with an “I have a friend who can” response or two, but so far, the only responses I’ve seen have been saying that while 8 orgasms is maybe possible it would take far longer than 15 minutes.

We may change position from missionary, to doggie to female superior, or we may not. Don’t seem to have problems walking or with dryness/chafing. And yes, we have done silly things like spend 4 or 5 hours, and 4 or 5 erections and played variously for almost the entire time. Never had problems walking then either=) ---

If the $5000 custom ring doesn’t keep her around, plan B involves hand cuffs and my bed. 😃 > [@aruvgan](#): > > Don’t seem to have problems walking or with dryness/chafing. Same here. We had yet needed to use any lube unless sex goes for longer than 25-35 minutes. Our normal session is generally 1 hours including foreplay, and I never go to bed right after. I usually end up pretty energized after some good booty. 😃 > [@Ghanima](#): > > Is anyone else still stuck here? > > This boggles my mind! Who are these women and how come I don’t know any of them?

Since I don’t have any other data points (having never slept with any other woman) I don’t know how rare this is. I’m sure there are going to be a few though. ---

I don’t know about 10 in 15…maybe that can be a research project for me. 😉 Overall, I certainly appreciate it when my orgasms span a greater period of time, as that much fun can wipe a girl out! > [@Khiadra](#): > > (and I’m giving you some benefit of the doubt here, in case you know a certified nymphomaniac with a hair trigger orgasm) And, because this is the SD after all: **Nymphomania** , while no longer a clinical diagnosis (and therefore, no one can be a “certified nymphomaniac” without printing up their own cards), refers to a sexual addiction. It’s not fun, and it’s not the same thing as being sexual or promiscuous. In general, nymphomaniacs, while compelled to have sex, don’t really enjoy said sex. Just thought I’d clear that up.
