My personal answer is "as long as it takes to please the both of you." Read on...

If you finish too soon (before she does), obviously you enjoyed yourself, but did your partner? If not, then you might as well have masturbated instead, or asked her for oral. Most women can climax between 10-20 minutes on average. Some sooner, some much later, the average among me and my girls is 15 minutes (to climax).

My 'ideal' is long enough to enjoy the sensations, and not too long that I get bored and/or overstimulated. For the majority of women I know, it is between 20-30 minutes, not including foreplay (which should last long enough to get your partner 'wet', and to that, do not put a time limit on it).

The important part is that you make the experience something pleasant and erotic, and not just a 'chore' or something that has to be finished in a certain amount of time. Mindless pumping, no matter how long it lasts, is not worth the orgasm, in my opinion. Petting, touching, kissing, and so on should continue while you are inside.

The amount of time you spend on sex is not nearly as important as the amount of pleasure the both of you experience.

I have had amazing, I mean REALLY amazing sex that lasted only about 1/2 hour. I have had some great quickies (like 10 minutes). I have had marathon sex (over 3 hours) that was incredible. I have also had sex for each of those amounts of time that were really not so great. Each time is really individual. It depends on where, when, how, who, and how you feel at that time. It also depends on the skill of the lover, though sometimes, if it is the right atmosphere, that doesn't even matter so much.
One of my favorite times was probably my shortest. It must have been between 5 and 10 minutes. But you really can't expect marathon sex in a public bathroom.
In short, perfect sex has no time frame. Time is just one of many, many variables to consider.

bscotch answered Sunday November 5 2006, 6:43 pm:
Well..ill start off by telling you that my shortest was about 30 minutes maybe and my longest was like 3 hours! i thnk the best time is at night with either really low lights or even none at all. but everyone is different with when they "finish" normally sex shouldnt be less than 15 or twenty minutes and it can go on for as long as you or he wants it..like one of my friends, she only had sex for 10 minues one time and she was perfectly fine with that. but the best thing i can tell you is make it exciting and do different positions. make him want more :P

karisue answered Sunday November 5 2006, 2:44 pm:
i've known of sex that has went on like for 5 hours.
and then i know sex that is no longer than 5 minutes.

but an average of about 30 minutes - 1 hour. i'd say.

i don't have an ideal sex time. as long as the sex is good, i don't care how long it lasts.

MissxJacky answered Sunday November 5 2006, 2:19 pm:
Um I'd probably have to say atleast an hour is good.
But some people do it the whole damn day.
Haha.
And that can be fun too.
But an hour is usually good since you get so tired.

I hope I helped.

Melody answered Sunday November 5 2006, 9:38 am:
longest: 2 hours & 30 minutes.
shortest: 10 minutes.

"perfect sex" has nothing to do with the amount of time the sex actually lasts. it has to do with what all goes on during the long or short amount of time you had sex. for instance, the shortest sex could be 100 times better than the longer sex and vice versa.

Erronius answered Sunday November 5 2006, 2:23 am:
I'm going to go out on a limb here, and assume you are asking this from a womans perspective. =]

Men in general don't struggle to go 30-90 minutes for their OWN pleasure, many would just assume 10-15 minutes (if THAT), smoke a cig and wait a bit, then go again. I'd hazard to say though that with experience (and some measure of caring for their partner if you are a lucky woman) men can (and do) go much longer though. Though for me prolonging the experience is actually harder the MORE attracted I am to the woman, the sexier she is, and the more turned on I am. Strange I know, but I've had some frustrating moments with the very women I have valued the most, that I have wanted the most.

Perfect sex for me (as a man) isn't about time at all. Its about fulfilling my partner as well as myself; and trust me, as a man, men take far less for fulfillment. I'm willing to put forth a good deal of effort, all I ask is for some feedback.

Perfect sex = woman who is vocal and open, and helps me, help her.

EDIT: In a sense, men dont care how long the race is, they want to cross the finish line - they tend to see it as a goal. Woman want the journey to be enjoyable, and its not just the end result. But thats not to say that men cant see it any other way; experience helps, as does actually loving your partner.

SoInToYoUx0x answered Sunday November 5 2006, 2:18 am:
i think the long it takes more passionate it becomes. when having sex it shouldnt be just fuckin but makin love to each other and showing how much you care.

about 1-3 hours is good.

hnstymtrs answered Sunday November 5 2006, 1:24 am:
Perfect sex can be defined in many ways. Idealy, sex should be enjoyed and experimented with. Personaly, sex doesn't last any less than 1 hour per session. It should be about enjoying each other for as long as you can. Sometimes there are quickies but that's usually because we do not have the time to take it slow.

There really is no such thing as perfect sex until you take your time to learn how to prolong it.

If it is only lasting 20-30 minutes, then you girls are getting cheated out of some serious pleasure!

redninja answered Sunday November 5 2006, 1:17 am:
well personally i think it varies.. Ive talked to some girls where 15-20 mins was awesome... but for some its more like 1....or 1 1/2 thats normal. SO really it more or less depends on the people. I cantimagine anything less than half an hour but thats jsut me.
