Lee getting some once a week :censored:
Lee getting some once a day :crazy:


But why are we back to this theory that only men have a high sex drive and they are the ones missing out? I know in more then one relationship ive been the one asking for sex most often

Agreed! :smile:

Some women who were raised to be very traditional may not appear to have as high a sex drive (and some people, men and women, just have lower sex drives). But there are plenty of us women with high sex drives out there! More than one guy I've been with has commented on mine!

I didn't realise mine was higher than normal until it was mentioned to me a long time ago. My love has no complaints thankfully. :biggrin1:

Chinese medicine says the number of ejaculations is how to count it and as the man gets older the frequency of ejaculations should slow down. However having sex w/o cuming is quie rewarding and also gives you a sense of accompishment and ongoingness to the relationship. I remember when I was young there was no holding back, but somewhere inthe middle it ouccures to you that there is so much more.....

Statistical correlations do not imply causation. But statistical correlations make for great titles for self help books. Just because people who have sex four or more times a week live longer does not mean that sex is the cause of it. It could just as easily be due to the fact that people who have that much sex, by definition, handle stress better than others, and thus place less constant stress on the heart. Also, people who exercise regularly, as they age, tend to retain more of their sex drive.

That being said, if you want to use this as a reason to spice up your sex lives, please do so.
You have a point, but sexual activity with another person that lasts a while per session and there are four sessions a week is equal to a "number" of miles walked per week. I read this statistic years ago. I don't remember, but someone studied the average heart rate exercise etc. and had the average computed. This was done by a true medical research team, not the National Inquirer.

Also it stands to reason that a man in perfect health is more likely to engage in sex and more often than a man who has severe health problems.

Just the physical exertion of sex can be tring to someone in very poor health.

Hey, if any guys need help getting laid 4 times a week... lemme know. :wink:
:tongue:Okay you handle the Kansas City guys and I'll take Atlanta. :wink::tongue:

Dr. Oz was talking about intercourse I think! I think you have to have that aerobic motion to make it heart-beneficial, but if you really get into your masturbation sessions then yeah, I think that's gotta help too. Plus, it's the benefits of orgasm on the total body.....so if you masturbate to orgasm then yeah I think it counts :)

You are correct Dudepiston, I'm sorry I did not make that clear in my initial post.

Nowhere near you
If an accredited medical expert (I'm not sure if someone from "Oprah" qualifies) says 4x/week is healthy, then it likely is healthy from a medical perspective.

Of course, medical experts have also said that it's healthy to get 20+ minutes of cardiovascular exercise 3-4 times a week, to cut down on fatty foods, to drink in moderation, etc, etc. And plenty of people either can't be bothered to do these things, or don't want to.

If you make sex into a chore that has to be performed 4x/week, I suspect that will just make people who aren't getting it 4x/week resentful. If you're happy with, say, 2x/week, why make yourself unhappy?

I don't think the information listed below will effect most of the women of LPSG; however I'm sure the men will be ecstatic. :smile:

I couldn't find a youtube clip of this segment of the show but Dr. Oz also mentioned that men should not go with out masturbating for extended periods of time as it is actually unhealthy for them to do so.


How Frequently Should Men Have Sex?

On a past Oprah show with Dr. Oz, Jason says he heard that, ideally, people should have sex four times a week. Can Dr. Oz confirm this…for Jason's wife?

"The average time that we have sex today in America is once a week," says Dr. Oz. "Now we have pretty good data—if you can get that number to four times a week, you're going to live longer."

That's right ladies, if you are in a relationship and aren't providing your man with sex a minimum of 4 times per week you are actually decreasing his life span.

Dont know...but the way i see "should" in this situation is kind of acting as a dictatorship. Even the "want' i would see as unbalanced because it shows me a person is lacking already...

The strong desire is the thing that moves and shakes but between persons with strong sexual attraction going on. As to me many may be lacking in their relationships simple because they are stuck with person with different level of energy them themslves, kind of stucked in it frustrated etc..better just choose wise a partner...as at least to me this frequency that came out by experts etc is in seady relationships.

Well people who are in relationships have lots different dinamics, responsabilities and etc just imagine if those men who should, are for exemple married men, with kids, finantial responsability, wife has her own professions and etc etc LOL..its not a walk in the park and for sure married, whatever couples do know they have work with their time, schedulles etc etc just imagine the reality of many of them who cannot even come up with real quality time between them without planning and stuff..yeh right.

Then in my mind is so easy for a bunch of horny singles not maybe even into relationshipsright now etc etc but confy having their single life going etc to jump and cry that of course they should and i will provide and eager participate on it too.

I do think the crying "should, yeh, those experts - of course they are talking about and aiming at a target group: men already in relationships who feel lacking it..but c'mom many of us do know that females may not respond to parteners in bedroom just because things are not going well outside bedroom....:biggrin1:

yeh and the drama is all over the place between couples.. hopefuly they will become balanced and complement each other in their desires etc.

Is for sure their problems not mine.
