How long should sex last?

This question is often time posed, and met with varying answers. The truth is sex should last as long as you and your partner want it to. The other reason why this is asked frequently is because of something called " premature ejaculation "... Premature ejaculation is when the male ejaculates quickly during sexual intercourse. (Absolutely nothing wrong with a woman who orgasms too quickly, double standards no?) Sometimes this occurs before penetration or soon afterwards. Some facts about intercourse A landmark study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine in 2008 found that the median length of intercourse was 5.4 minutes. Other studies have found medians of 7.5mins (these studies ignored foreplay) A poll carried out found that women believed that 11- 13minutes of foreplay with 7-8 minutes of intercourse was considered adequate.

EFCC UNDER PRESSURE TO DROP PATIENCE JONATHAN $20m ACCOUNTS PROBE

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has been under pressure to drop the probe of Patience Jonathan, wife of former President Goodluck Jonathan, for money laundering, according to sources within the agency. The anti-graft agency as part of investigations into a former Special Adviser to the President on Domestic Affairs, Waripamowei Dudafa, traced four company accounts containing $15.6m to him all domiciled at Skye Bank. Mrs. Jonathan had, however, deposed an affidavit insisting the monies belonged to her before the EFCC could arraign the suspects. The move led the anti-graft agency to probe the claim and eventually freeze her personal account, which had $5m in it. It was gathered that the agency had established a case of money laundering against her and was set to invite her for questioning. But sources within the agency said it had been under pressure to drop the case as there are plans by Patience's supporters to embark on a series of protests this week. On Friday, score

EFCC officer arrested for collecting N15m bribe from a lawmaker

On Thursday, September 15, 2016, The EFCC arrested Uzodinma Kingsley Agbazu one of its operatives, for offences bordering on criminal conspiracy and extortion. Agbazue, a Deputy Detective Superintendent, DDS, was arrested following a complaint by a lawmaker currently under investigation by the Commission, alleging that the operative collected N15million fromhim with a promise to give him soft landing by compromising the investigation. According to the complainant, Agbazue allegedly approached him, claiming he had been mandated by the officer handling the case to discuss and reach an agreement on how to "kill the case".

Rooney’s place not guaranteed- Mourinho

Wayne Rooney Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney's place in the starting line-up is not a cast iron certainty, said club manager Jose Mourinho on Friday. The 31-year-old England skipper — who on Thursday had said he didn't pay any attention to outside criticism of his form — has failed to sparkle and was anonymous in the two Premier League defeats United suffered last week. Mourinho, who himself has been subjected to criticism after United slumped to three successive defeats last week — his worst run since 2002 — would not, unlike his predecessor Louis van Gaal, guarantee Rooney a starting place. "Wayne is the captain of the club, the manager and the players — he is trusted by the players, he is trusted by myself and he represents the club in a fantastic way as a player and person and what is now socially," said Mourinho."Football is a different story." Football everyone is the same and if he has to go on the bench, he goes on the bench. "If he has t

Obama vetoes bill allowing 9/11 victims to sue Saudi

US President, Barack Obama on Friday vetoed a bill allowing 9/11 families to sue Saudi Arabia, risking a fierce public backlash and rare congressional rebuke. While expressing "deep sympathy" for the families of the victims, Obama said the law would be "detrimental to US national interests." The White House tried and failed to have the legislation — which was unanimously passed by Congress — scrapped or substantially revised. Terry Strada, whose husband Tom was killed in World Trade Center Tower One, told AFP the 9/11 "families are outraged and very disappointed" by Obama's decision.She vowed that the group would now lobby "just as hard as we possibly can" to have Congress overturn the decision. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump,who has already painted Obama and his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton as weak on terrorism, described the decision as "shameful."" That President Obama would deny the parents,spouses and
