Overall, how much on average?

The extra 12 minutes taken by girls is most likely because many girls add extra time to do makeup. Olivia Pfeiler, '21, takes 45 minutes to get ready for school. Her morning routine consists of showering, getting dressed, brushing her teeth, sometimes straightening her hair, and then doing her makeup.

“Space can be from a couple of hours to a couple of days or weeks,” says Ruiz, though he generally doesn't recommend his clients take longer than 3 to 4 weeks. “The timeframe that is being considered should be reasonable for both parties to agree with,” he says.
Women involved in the survey said that the time duration of 25 minutes and 51 seconds was considered to be "ideal", which gave them the feeling of having good sex and feeling satisfied. Coming in close were men in the survey, who felt that good sex should last for 25 minutes and 43 seconds.
