Elizabeth Black: How Much Sex Is Too Much?

Is there too much sex in novels? [...] "Bodice-ripper" is being nice. Most people would say such writers write porn for women. I write that kind of stuff and judging from readers in the erotic romance genre, the more sex, the better. The kinkier the sex, the better. And even m/m is popular with women just like straight men love to watch two women get it on. If American readers are really all that puritanical, they're ordering their smut wrapped in brown paper downloads.

It's only too much when you start getting sore. Most of my friends are having sex like 3 times a day!

[Old Hoot]

It all depends on the people involved. Some do have it several times a day and not be satisfied while others will be feeling overwrought at once a day. Every situation is different, depending on the parties involved. There is no “one size fits all” description for how much is enough vs too much.

Depends on the partner. I average 4-6 times a day. Less with guys, more with female partners.

Lol, isn't such a thing as to much, is always not enough!
