Tomas1, jump.ship, Oneperson and FMLFML85 and anyone else I did not notice,
This is an interesting discussion re: How well does a completely natural 100% functional penis actually work? In a 20 year old , 30 year old, 4-, 50 60 and 70 year old? Particularly with respect to duration.
I have never read any studies or reliable statistics on the subject. Only anecdotal reports (and those were mostly locker room talk that I usually took with a grain of salt or reports from my sexual partners which may have been "adjusted" to spare my feeling or support my ego).
Only a person who has had sex with a large number of men and actually witnessed the performance parameters can say from first hand knowledge, and even then the surveyed population is not, perforce, a random sample of all men.
But, I have heard credible (anecdotal) stories of sexual experiences (whose narrative was NOT focused on duration of erection) that could only be associated with an erection of at least several minutes, if not tens of minutes.
My particular E.D. appeared to be venous leakage (V.L.) perhaps aggravated by premature ejaculation (P.E.). But the P.E. might have been caused by the V.L. in this manner: I could keep an erection, but only by maintaining continual stimulation. That stimulation inevitably produced orgasm, ejaculation and refractory collapse of the erection. Slowing stimulation to prevent orgasm inevitably let the erection collapse from V.L.
In my youth, my morning erections were very persistent.durable and refused to go down for very long times which was problematic when I had a full bladder. I could not urinate until the erection decompressed my urethra (either by waiting or by masturbation to orgasmic refraction).
I really do wonder how many men's (outside of the population that have E.D. because of injury or specific disease)
E.D. experience is like mine and how many men without that clinical history have erections that naturally stay for longer than 5, 10, 15, 20... minutes during active coitus.
A study of a statistically valid, random sample of men (and identified as having clinical E.D. or not, the E.D. without specific injury or disease causing it) would be interesting.
20 year olds What percentage last under 5 min, 5-10 minutes, 10-15 minutes 15-20 minutes etc
30 year olds What percentage last under 5 min, 5-10 minutes, 10-15 minutes 15-20 minutes etc
40 year olds What percentage last under 5 min, 5-10 minutes, 10-15 minutes 15-20 minutes etc
50 year olds What percentage last under 5 min, 5-10 minutes, 10-15 minutes 15-20 minutes etc
60 year olds What percentage last under 5 min, 5-10 minutes, 10-15 minutes 15-20 minutes etc
70 year olds What percentage last under 5 min, 5-10 minutes, 10-15 minutes 15-20 minutes etc
Put that in a spreadsheet (or bar graph)
I wonder how many women would volunteer to help with the research?
edited to add, in deference to Jump.ship and others "I wonder how many men (would have to be bottoms/"catchers", I guess) would volunteer to help?"
