You Won’t Believe How Long the Average Man Really Lasts in Bed—New Study Uncovers Shocking Truth
Ever wondered how long the average guy actually lasts in bed before reality kicks in? Well, it turns out that mystery has finally met its match—courtesy of a new study that’s answering the question we’ve all been too polite (or too curious) to ask out loud. Now, we all know sex isn’t a contest, yet the internet’s buzzing with bragging rights about “how many people” someone’s wrangled into bed, “how often” couples should be getting cosy, and even the bizarre bendy positions folks dare to reveal. Spoiler alert: those loudest about their bedroom exploits might just be covering up a little insecurity—because honestly, some things are best kept between you and your partner. And let’s not forget, the porn world and the real world couldn’t be more different; overindulging in X-rated content might just do a number on your own performance. Luckily, a study from Lovehoney steps up to the plate with some cold, hard numbers—though, fair warning, a few minutes might be generously added on here and there. So buckle up for a wild ride through average minutes by age, because as it turns out, it’s definitely a marathon, not a sprint! LEARN MORE
A new study has answered the question we’ve all been asking by revealing exactly how long the average man lasts in bed.
While sex isn’t a competition, it seems as if everyone on the internet these days is keen to brag about how many people they’re doing it with, or how often people should be doing it, or even the weird positions that they’re doing it in.
Now, a general study would probably reveal that the people who brag about these things are often the ones who are most insecure and it’s probably best to keep what happens in the bedroom between you and your partner.
It must also be said that porn and real-life sex are very different, and doctors have warned about the effects of consuming too much x-rated content on the internet, as it may negatively impact your own performance in the bedroom.
Fortunately, a study from Lovehoney has helped put a figure on the sort of numbers that average blokes are posting, although I would also argue that people are perhaps always likely to add a few minutes onto their own answers.

These aren’t necessarily a ball park to aim for, as everyone’s experience will be different, but here are the reported numbers from different age groups:
Those aged between 18 and 24 registered an average time of 16.14 minutes in bed, with numbers ranging from just a few minutes to some suggesting that they’re managing to last over an hour, as reported by Metro.
For those in the 25-34 bracket, when you have a bit more experience under their belt but still the fitness and stamina to match, the average time increases to 18.29 minutes.
But after this, I’m afraid it’s all downhill, as 35-44 register an average time of 17.4 minutes, before dropping again to 14.14 minutes when you starting getting close to your 50s.

When the sore back and hips start coming into play between 55 and 64, the time drops again to 11.3 minutes and while you might hope that those retired folks might have a bit more time to get down and dirty, it seems as if they sadly no longer have the stamina, as they record the lowest average of just 8.15 minutes.
Sexual health nurse Sarah Mulindwa said: “Research shows that session length tends to peak in the late 20s to early 30s and gradually shortens as men get older.
“In your 20s, excitement and novelty are high, which can lead to quicker climaxes, but recovery is fast, and stamina is generally good. At this stage, it’s all about pacing – using edging, breathwork, or condoms strategically can help build control.
“However, what matters most at any age is communication, technique, and pleasure – not the stopwatch.”
