To think a two hour sesh sounds hellish?

Just been away for a weekend with a male friend. During one conversation we got on about sex somehow, and he said he thought anything less than a two hour session is a waste of time.

Good for him I suppose, but AIBU to think the majority of people would find this far too long and start planning their dinner?

Before anyone says he’s trying to impress me or get me into bed, he’s not.

I doubt he meant 2 hrs of penetration which would be a big no from me

but me and DP can easily spend 2hrs+ on a session, kissing foreplay just exploring each other yeah a lazy morning/afternoon/evening we can be there for hours

Are most women just having one orgasm? Per sex session?
Genuine question

That's my preference as I lose interest after.

Many.

That screams of ‘oooo look at me…I can go 3 times, I’ve a big dik and go like a ramrod!!!’
rather than a man telling you how he likes putting a woman’s pleasure first….which also means considering that she’s probably been acting as a worker, nurse, mother, teacher, cook, taxi driver etc etc all day and she’d appreciate sleep and a lay in bed!!!

All three of his serious girlfriends haven’t had children either.

Havnt read the replies but are you also single op? I wonder if hes trying to impress you? Why men think a 2 hour session js something we want is beyond me...they really have no idea do they.
God how did bonnie blue manage for a day? 😬

I mean if its two hours if say a sensual bath, oil massage, foreplay then sex i can see all that being 2 hours...but banging for 2 hours...nah. how dull.

Edited

I’m not single. I told him it sounded like my worst nightmare. Who could be on?

This. Yes he IS trying to get you into bed, at least, it's at the back of his mind. The only bloke I knew who blathered on about tantric sex couldn't get it up half the time........🤔

🙄 No, he’s not.

Clearly you don't have messy dc, a full time job.

I have a full time job. I do not have a child, and thank god if it means being chained to the beep of a washing machine all day every day (which for most of my parent friends, it clearly doesn’t.)

Depends on how good they both are and how much they enjoy it. When its good and fun you hardly notice the time. When its crap, even 5 minutes is too long.

This is the truth.

Time flies when you're having fun!

God no 20 minutes tops including foreplay. 😂

ChaToilLeam · 19/07/2025 08:21

I just couldn't be bothered. 😕

AnotherNamechangeForObviousReasons · 19/07/2025 08:03

Well yes, if all sex consists of is one (or no) orgasm and then PIV for ages, I can see why many women wouldn't be interested in that.

There's a whole lot in between that can add to the enjoyment, surely...

I could just be out of step with a lot of women on this thread, mind - I would not have wanted to spend hours and hours in lovemaking sessions when my children were little/I was exhausted. They're grown up now and my time is my own.

legolegoeverywhereandnotadroptodrink · 19/07/2025 07:57

No wonder he’s single

TranceNation · 19/07/2025 07:50

Nope. That kinda thing was perhaps fun in my 20s but I'm 42 now. Once I've got my O and he's had his it's session over. Maybe twice sometimes.

He has never had sex for two hours.

MyWarmOchreHare · 18/07/2025 22:04

But you don’t have the washing machine on 24/7 and you wouldn’t need to get it out immediately 😂

Clearly you don't have messy dc, a full time job.

TenaciousDeeds · 18/07/2025 22:23

Oh gosh this was me for about 20 years. I so longed for just quickies with my DH.

soupyspoon · 18/07/2025 22:22

Myfridgeiscool · 18/07/2025 14:58

I’d be meal planning for the week, let alone thinking about dinner.

Yes, I would have run up a nice list of chores and errands in my head by then, probably in alphabetical order or something.

NautilusLionfish · 18/07/2025 22:20

Every time he says? Either he has never had sex and this is his imagination of it. Or it's been so long since he had sex he has forgotten the reality. Or may be it's just him and a sex doll or fleshlight

whynotmereally · 18/07/2025 22:19

It’s always men swho seem to think women want hours of sex!
i absolutely could not be arsed, if dh has a drink it takes him a bit longer and after about 15 min of penetration I have had enough. 20/30 min (inc foreplay ) is plenty
