Jika kita mengkaji sejarah kehidupan manusia sejak dari dulu, seks pada semula jadinya adalah sesuatu yang cepat tetapi bermakna. Sepertimana kejadian mamalia, seks yang terlalu lama mendedahkan mereka kepada musuh yang sentiasa mengintai.
Jika anda tertanya-tanya berapa lama hubungan seks yang optimum yang dapat memuaskan kedua belah pihak, anda boleh menemui jawapannya di bawah.
Seks yang memakan masa sekitar 7 hingga 13 minit adalah mencukupi dan dapat memberikan kepuasan. Jadi tak perlulah kita bersusah payah menghabiskan duit untuk mendapatkan ubat tahan lama sehingga boleh mencapai setengah jam.
Jika kaum lelaki selama ini berasa kecewa kerana tak mampu beraksi lama, anda sepatutnya berasa lega dengan hasil dari kajian yang dilampirkan di atas.
Sex for 10 minutes is just about perfect, say researchers
Sexual marathons lasting all night are boring but 10 minutes is just about perfect for most people, researchers have concluded.
A survey of 50 members of the Society for Sex Threapy and Research, who counsel and treat couples with sexual problems, suggested the time range for adequate, too short and too long copulation.
They said between one and two minutes was too short, three to seven minutes was acceptable, and anything over 13 minutes was too long.
They added that sex lasting between seven and 13 minutes was "desirable".
The researchers noted that popular culture had tended to reinforce unrealistic ideas about how long sex should last.
Researcher Eric Corty, an associate professor of psychology at Penn State University, said: "Many men and women seem to believe the fantasy of all-night-long intercourse.
"This seems a situation ripe for disappointment and dissatisfaction.
"We hope this survey will dispel fantasies and encourage men and women with realistic data."
The findings were published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.
