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.

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

No. I can't recall having just a single one for a long time before my now BF. He's a 'giver' and because he studied human biology - and has read every sex manual & women's magazines he could get hold of since aged 14 lolol - he's picked up a lot of information, tips and tricks. Gotta love the "Sheldon Cooper" type 😅
The 'wearing socks increases chances of orgasms' one I was skeptical about but it's true! He's also got zero ego about using toys. Despite not being able to live with him - he's in supported accommodation - we've done pretty well together over last seven years.

Sounds like a recipe for thrush and a UTI!

🙄 No, he’s not.

Bless ya, course he is. But then you’ve explained why you must keep denying it now, because he’s reading this thread!

Mate, please, you’re not hammering away for 2 hours and pleasing anyone

Of course he's not reading it.

Are you so dense that you can’t see any reason as to why every man might not be trying to pull every woman they speak to?

Is he single 👀 asking for a friend who would love this type of session

Biids · 19/07/2025 17:54

Far, far too long. Just why?

Kjpt140v · 19/07/2025 18:09

He is trying to impress, and he's talking shite. How on earth did the subject come up?

I’ve honestly got no idea. We were on holiday and there was wine involved.

Fontofallknowledge23 · 19/07/2025 18:23

I reckon my husband would do this. I call him
Sting for a joke (who loves tantric sex ). This is no way happening thank you. How bloody long ??!!!!! Not my idea of fun.

HRTQueen · 19/07/2025 18:25

legolegoeverywhereandnotadroptodrink · 19/07/2025 07:57

No wonder he’s single

😆😆😆😆

Two hours being in such close proximity to someone no thanks

when I was younger high and loved up maybe

someone once posted on here sex is an activity for the young. I can totally understand that point now

fetchacloth · 19/07/2025 18:27

If it takes him two hours to get going I think he needs viagra.
No way would I want to spend two hours with him.

Separate rooms?

BlackberryGin · 19/07/2025 18:54

I have unhappy memories of this, an all-night session of sighs, groans and moans, creaking floors with the bed shaking and banging off the wall, the electric fan cooling the air and all I wanted to do was go to sleep.
Not me, obvs, but the newly-together couple in the flat upstairs.

I ended up going outside at about 6 a.m. to escape out the noise and had to go to work after zero fking sleep.

We used to call them The Shaggers and if I was working late shifts, DH would sometimes greet me at the door with "it's ok, they've just finished" and it was the best news of the day.

Ahhh, the memories....... 🙃

Just don’t do it then there won’t be any issue.

Don’t post on mumsnet then if you have no ability to hear different views!

FeetLikeFlippers · 19/07/2025 19:13

Why do men think sexual stamina is so important? I can’t imagine anything more tedious (or painful) than two hours of sex. I suppose there’s a small chance he’s talking about nearly two hours of foreplay followed by 10 minutes of penetration but I still don’t see the point.

Susgor · 19/07/2025 19:17

He's your brother!!

Tessabelle74 · 19/07/2025 19:24

Can't think of anything more tedious tbh

Missingpop · 19/07/2025 19:41

I’d get pissed off & ask to get on with it I’ve got other things to do 😂😂😂 I do think he’s tugging hour tit though

It would be reasonable for kink, if each session was a scene. That takes time, especially with aftercare.

What’s aftercare pls. It’s been mentioned a few times and I’ve no idea what it is.

The time spent together after a BDSM session to bring the sub back down from the high properly and make sure they are all right and just enjoy the glow together. You shouldn't do that sort of thing and then immediately disappear. People can feel vulnerable and fragile as well as high.

lowkey33 · 19/07/2025 20:09

can't help but point out , it wasn't that long ago that women were complaining about sex not lasting long enough lol

Did you write it in your diary and block out the time on your online calendar too?

Scheduled sex sounds so unsexy

We didn't need to write it in our diaries as it was every Thursday for YEARS.

It was great for me to know when IT was going to happen so I could be suitably prepared physically (for example armpits shaved and not eating a big meal, or garlic, just before).

It was always very sexy knowing we would have that wonderful, uninterrupted time naked together every week. I'd spend Wednesdays and Thursdays getting quite excited in anticipation and planning sexy things to do. I really miss that.
