There's no "None of your damn business" option. Or indeed any "I refuse to answer on the grounds I may incriminate myself". There should also be an "I would be laughed at/called a liar" options....

Not answering is the traditional method of indicatign an unwillingness to participate...

(Parental mode)

True, but the numbers who won't say are surely also significant? And it allows us shy types to feel involved.

I can pay attention to something, nay, anything else, for as long as the sex lasts...

Do you mean the length of time one can keep having sex before one gets bored, or the length of time during which one can keep one's mind focused on sex during sex?

I think he means the length of time before he has to go and check his email...

[octopoid-horror.livejournal.com]

Surely it's variable.. if no one emails during the s3XXX0rz, he's fine.. but if he hears the "ping" of an arriving email, he's away faster than Burt Ward down a greased Bat-Pole...

A clever person would let him keep his PDA on his person during the Act, so that he could continue with debauched licentiousness while checking email/posting to lj/concoting polls/browsing for pr0n...

An even cleverer person would turn off the amp on the PC so no ping :-)

And why do you think we have a laptop and wireless network huh?:->

It's such a long time since I got any that I can't remember.

5 minutes? 15 minutes?!? What is wrong with you people!?

:)

More than 4h if the going's good, but after 6-8 I tend to need sleep, assuming one started after an evening out, as is traditional in these repressed parts of the world we inhabit.

No, really.

I find it hard to pay attention to other things when someone's having sex with me, if that's what you meant.

And what constitutes the length of time you're having sex? From first fully clothed kiss to the last moment of post-coital cuddle? Does the pizza afterwards count too if you eat it gazing lovingly into your shag-biscuit's eyes (no fear, I've never used that phrase before, nor will I again) or is it only from first groinal ram to last vague groan 18 seconds later as you finish the job (SARCASM! I'M BEING FUNNY DAMMIT).

Cos that might affect my answering of your poll.

[octopoid-horror.livejournal.com]

You missed the "subtract the time taken out while you stop in the middle to ask random questions which betray the stupid things you've just been thinking about that aren't sex..." bit.

Or, in the case of the Poll-owner... the "get up, wander off, emerge elsewhere in flat reading a comic and wearing a towel, start checking email/watching TV that someone else is watching, then be dragged back to bedroom by unsatisfied woman, also clad in towel, but without comic."

Wow, having pizza there afterwards is pretty smooth. I guess, if you've got your timing down, you could phone in an order, then be just finished as the doorbell rings....

Is living in a semi-conscious state where the lines between having sex and dreaing that you're having sex with your lover blur in that weird Saturday-Sunday thing count as one whole act? And if so do coffee-and-cig breaks held with one hand of each partner are free to wander count? And is passing out due to physical exhastion counted as a break in concentration?
