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.

Was he trying to impress you with how much of a sex god he is 😃

Mrsttcno1 · 18/07/2025 14:52

I’d be interested to know who even has that kind of time to spare just to have sex😂

TeeBee · 18/07/2025 14:54

Fuck that! I'd get bored after an hour and want some sleep.

Oh god, sounds dire and boring. Sound alike he is too, as he has 2+ spare hours a day?

Is he young? Does he not have hobbies?

I'm guessing he's single and without kids.

Dweetfidilove · 18/07/2025 14:57

Two hours non-stop - every time? He's full of shit. Or maybe they just both do it very badly.

Myfridgeiscool · 18/07/2025 14:58

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

In his 40s. He is single. He's a lovely man though.

Depends how much of that time he’s focused on his partner. And it depends what he means by ‘sex’.

Me too! Honestly I think I’d just as, to stop. I’d be bored.

Foreplay included.

I wouldn’t like it even if it was the most amazing sex ever.

Totally depends though doesn’t it. Dh and I have spent that sort of time being intimate (not going into details here obviously) but not 2 full hours of penetrative sex, that would be painful I’d imagine! And probably give me severe thrush 😂

Tessasanderson · 18/07/2025 15:03

His cock would be red raw. Going through all the stages of sex twice he would be doing very well to get to 60 mins. I am calling bollox to it

PietariKontio · 18/07/2025 15:04

When we were younger my wife and I probably did have 1-2 hour 'sessions', then we had a couple of kids, quite close together, and then, cos we were knackered and to 'fit it in' between the kids waking up, we definitely quickened things up and got more 'efficient'.

As the kids have grown up / left home, time has increased, but definitely not as long as before, but I think we'd both say our sex life is better than ever.

Devilsmommy · 18/07/2025 15:04

I have not got the time, energy or inclination for that😂 you really can tell when people haven't got young kids😆

doodleschnoodle · 18/07/2025 15:04

The chafing! Also I have a lot of other stuff to get done, I’m not wasting two hours of my time so someone can pump away relentlessly. 20 mins with an orgasm is fine for me.

Thepeopleversuswork · 18/07/2025 15:04

This is a classic thing which a certain sort of bloke boasts about to prospective partners, thinking women love it. Most of us don't. No one has time.

I had a boyfriend years ago who would always draw it out for ages and ages and tried to make everything "tantric": pulling back from the brink of orgasm all the time and telling he he wanted to "make it all worth it in the end". It was the biggest cringe. I couldn't be arsed then in my 20s when I was full of hormone-driven passion. I sure as hell wouldn't now, in my early 50s.

Sex is great but turning into a performative exercise in tantric technique takes all the fun out of it.

Sounds like someone who’s spent too much time wanking to online porn and now it takes him ages to finish off, and never mind how bored or sore his partner’s getting.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not the norm 😂 but every now and then when no one else is home we’ve got the time and inclination!!

I couldn’t be bloody bothered. I’d rather have a nice cup of tea

Berlinlover · 18/07/2025 15:09

Since my hysterectomy and chemotherapy even a ten minute session is hell 😢

Imaybeoldbutstillrandy · 18/07/2025 15:09

DH & me quite often disappear into the bedroom for 2 hours, surface, have a drink, something to eat & then go back to it. We spend hours just talking, having a bit of sexual activity-sometimes with 'toys' sometimes enjoying each other's bodies.

Sometimes we don't even bother going to bed - there famous time when DH <who is big rugby fan> missed the 2nd half of an England/Wales match because we found something more interesting do do in half time & just carried on. DH's brother called him to ask what he thought about the match & DH had to admit that he didn't see the second half, didn't know the score & why. 😀

But we're both over the age of 60, no children, only the dog to worry about.

I love our afternoons-going into evenings in bed.
