So This Is What Madonna Means When She Sells "Hard Candy"

T

HE WORLD CAN REST NOW KNOWING THAT MADGE, the rock and roll legend with the unquenchable appetite, is getting her sexual kicks. The one and only Madonna confesses in Elle's May issue that hubby Guy satisfies her -- at least in bed. Madge has a song on her new album Hardy Candy, in which she says, "Sex with you is incredible." The Elle interviewer asked the obvious: Is she singing about Guy? "Absolutely," Madonna's quoted as saying. "Sex with Guy is incredible ... And surprise, surprise, it's his favorite song on the album. Actually, maybe it's not his favorite song, but it's definitely his favorite line."

Of course, none of this can actually be believed because Madonna's in selling mode, and in that mode everything is suspect. For all anyone really knows, Madge could be singing about sex with herself. But unless she has a guest appearance on The Moment of Truth, we'll never get to ask.

Another clue to that "incredible" sex is a study in the news today that says it takes as little as three minutes to satisfy a woman in bed. According to an AP story, "A survey of sex therapists concluded the optimal amount of time for sexual intercourse was 3 to 13 minutes."

But don't get cocky, guys: this optimal time does not include foreplay -- the most important part for women, so men, you're not off the hook.

Another not-so-newsworthy fact from the study, to be published in the May issue of the Journal of Sexual Medicine: It's difficult for both older men and young men to make sexual intercourse last much longer than the median 7.3 minutes. Duh. Dud. And one final conclusion: sex that lasts between one and two minutes is "too short." We can all rest now knowing that Guy surely is beating the averages?
