6 sex curiosities

Sex, as well as an incredible source of pleasure and an effective way to keep the couple in complicity, can be extremely interesting. Science, through research and studies conducted around the world, has proven several curious facts about the human body during sexual relations, and also human behavior at these times.

1 ? How long do orgasms last?

Research led by German sexologist Rolf Degen found that male orgasm lasts longer than female. According to the study, men's orgasm lasts an average of 12.4 seconds compared with 1.7 seconds for women.

On the other hand, according to the book Scared Sh * tless: 1,003 Facts That Will Scare the Sh * t Out of You, the thing works the other way round: while female orgasm averages 20 seconds, male only lasts an average of 6 seconds. Orgasm, apparently, remains a mystery in many ways, despite the efforts of scientists.


2 ? The effectiveness of condoms

Unsurprisingly, condoms are critical for anyone who wants to avoid pregnancy and STDs. In the prevention of pregnancy, this resource reaches 97% effectiveness when used correctly. At the same time, it guarantees 70% fewer chances of getting diseases like HPV, according to a recent study.

3? It's hot in here, right?

It is not mere impression without foundation. According to the book Why Do Women Crave More Sex in the Summer? (Why do women want more sex in the summer?), The hot months of the year actually influence women's desire. That would happen, the researchers say, because man releases a kind of? Smell? different when you're sexually attracted to a woman. The summer climate and humid air make women even more sensitive to this smell and therefore feel more sexual desire.

4? Hot feet, more orgasms

According to research at Groningen University in the Netherlands, women are 30% more likely to reach orgasm when their feet are warm. Researchers say using a sock or oil massages before sex are good ways to help a woman "get there."


5? Contraceptives Can Harm Your Sexual Pleasure

Depending on the type of medicine you use as a contraceptive method, your sex life may be affected. A study by researchers at Indiana University in the United States showed that women using the pill and the contraceptive patch, for example, have difficulties with their lubrication as well as trouble feeling aroused. They also reported less orgasms and even less frequent sex.

6? What is the ideal duration of a sexual relationship?

A group of US sex therapists has released a study that says the proper length of a sexual relationship is between three and seven minutes. Scientifically speaking, the information may be true, but if you consider the foreplay, oral sex, and even manual stimulation that precedes sex itself, naturally the relationship time will be much longer than that.
