The added that sex lasting between seven and 13 minutes was "desirable".

"Many men and women seem to believe the fantasy of all-night-long intercourse," the Telegraph quoted researcher Eric Corty, an associate professor of psychology at Penn State University, as saying.

Sex Addiction
Is sex addiction a malady that can be treated or is it only an excuse for celebrity romps?

"This seems a situation ripe for disappointment and dissatisfaction.

"We hope this survey will dispel fantasies and encourage men and women with realistic data," Corty added.
