Masters and Johnson, two important sex researchers, suggest a Four-Phase Model for understanding the sexual response cycle: Men usually take 2 to 7 minutes to orgasm The survey also suggested that a significant number of adults had a negative attitude toward masturbation, particularly women. In a study conducted in 2009 on 600 adults in Guangzhou, China, 48.8 percent of females and 68.7 percent of males reported that they had masturbated. Terri Fisher, the lead author of the study, claims that people who reported being comfortable with sex in the study’s questionnaire were most likely to think about sex on a frequent basis. It’s possible that men are more comfortable thinking about sex and reporting their thoughts. So do men think about sex twice as much as women? Well, the study also suggested that men thought about food and sleep more frequently than women.
The young women in the study reported an average of 10 thoughts about sex per day. That would mean 8,000 thoughts in 16 waking hours! The young men in the study reported thoughts of sex 19 times per day on average. Men think about sex all day longĪ recent study at Ohio State University of over 200 students debunks the popular myth that men think about sex every seven seconds. So what stereotypes about the male sex drive are true? How do men compare to women? Let’s look at these popular myths about male sexuality.
