Just thought I would post this for all the Germans, Swiss, Swedish, Yanks, Aussies and Kiwis out there.
Oh, and especially the Japs!

A SCIENTIFIC study to be published this week will suggest that British men are world leaders at sex, at least when they are measured against the clock.
But that is not saying much considering that most men in other countries were at best five-minute wonders.
After equipping hundreds of couples in various countries with stopwatches, researchers have for the first time amassed accurate data on the length of time that people spend having sex.
Across all the countries studied, the average time for actual lovemaking was 5.4 minutes. Around that figure, however, the researchers found considerable variations related to age and nationality.
While British men took on average 7.6 minutes, the typical American took 7 minutes, while the Spanish lasted 5.8 minutes and the Dutch 5.1 minutes.
The Turks produced the biggest surprise: on average they spend just 3.7 minutes at it.
In all the countries studied there was no significant difference in the timings whether the men were using condoms or not.
In the research, to be published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, British and Dutch scientists studied 500 couples aged over 18 in the five countries.
It's Official - UK Men Last Longest
Stupid trolls
Don't feed the troll.
Confused of Cheltenham
I note that the research was done in by a Netherlands based team which makes me wonder (especially with regard to the Turkish example) why everyone jumps to the conclusion that these were mixed-sex couplessays Dr Marcel Waldinger, a leading neuro-psychiatrist based at Utrecht University who led the research
Perhaps the digs at British "women" are unjustified - there are one or two ugly men here too
On a more serious note
- what in God's name is a typical American?the typical American took 7 minutes
(PS - How did they measure it against the clock - did they use the tiny hand or the big hand?)

Hey come on you guys,
Quite clearly the british are best,
Aussies are the ones we did not need in england.
Americans are mostly impoted irishmen, or a general mish mash.
The dutch are too wrecked to do anything.
And the turks prefer katoys.
As for english women, mine wont try and kill me, and i can have an intelligent conversation about anything not just what happens in the local bar.
