There really is no specific time frame I can give you or that is 'normal.' If a man ejaculates (comes) before he wishes to it's called 'premature ejaculation' -no matter whether he lasts ten seconds or five minutes. The determining factor is whether it's too early for him or not. On the other hand, some men have a hard time ejaculating at all. This is called delayed ejaculation. Those men typically can have intercourse for a very long time - which may sound good to some, but it is not always welcomed by him. Editors note: If you are still curious about the range of response times, look in the male volume of the book by Alfred Kinsey. It was published in 1948 and he gives very specific information about the variation in times to orgasm. Patricia Fawver, Ph.D., editor
