Eleven minutes is apparently how long it takes, on average, for two adults to complete sexual intercourse. (If this is the average, who is doing it so fast?)

How can you write a spiritual book on the life of a prostitute? Well, Paulo can. Another great book.

Dear gai,

Absolutely! So if you understand mathematics, and you and I take two hours, and we have an average of 11 minutes, who is doing it so fast that the average comes down to 11 minutes?

Actually I suspect that is the average for sex with prostitutes. I deliberately called that sex, not love.

Much love,
Geoff.
