"Who wants to be better in bed?" is a pretty stupid question. Aside from priests and eunuchs, who wouldn't want to be an elite practitioner of lovemaking? Yet, due to what you used to hear on the playground and in the locker room, and what passes for adult conversation these days, we found there's a shocking amount of misinformation out there.

In fact, there are so many misconceptions about men and sex that we felt it appropriate to consult an expert. With the help of Joel Block, PhD, psychologist and sex therapist, we are feeling very excited about clearing up the biggest myths about sex.

Ten Sex Myths Debunked

    Myth: The bigger you are, the better you are in bed

    Truth: Unless your junk resembles a baby carrot, you're plenty big. But that doesn't mean you have it easy in bed. Size has nothing to do with being a sexual rock star. For a chick to say you're the best she's ever had, you've got to be attentive and confident.

    Myth: The average man thinks about sex every 7 seconds

    Truth: Sure, a guy has sex on the brain on a semi-regular basis, but not multiple times a minute. In today's financial climate, most men are thinking about money and job security much more than they are about getting laid.

    Myth: A guy should be able to last at least 30 minutes in bed.

    Truth: The average orgasm time for guys is 3 minutes of active thrusting. It takes women an average of 14 minutes to climax. So, really about 15 minutes is all you need to be able to do.

    Myth: Condoms cut back on sensation

    Truth: Maybe a tiny bit, but sex still feels awesome. Plus, the fractional amount of feeling that is cut can help you last longer.

    Myth: The bigger the boys, the more fertile you are

    Truth: Studies show that there's no correlation between big testicles and baby making abilities. You only need to be concerned if they're too small tinier than walnuts could be a sign of low fertility.

    Myth: Men are more promiscuous

    Truth: This may have been the case 50 years ago, but society has changed. It's okay for women to be more open with their sexuality and are just as likely to have booty calls and random hook ups as guys are.

    Myth: Bachelors have the most sex

    Truth: Shockingly, statistics actually say that married folks get it on more regularly. The reason? They don't have to find someone to do it with, they live with them.

    Myth: A man should always orgasm during sex

    Truth: Just like women, it's not going to happen all the time. Although, be thankful. The odds of climaxing are more in guys' favor than they are in women's'. If you're sleepy or stressed, you can get hard and it will feel good, there just may be no, er, emission.

    Myth: You should abstain from sex right before a big event

    Truth: This was a belief commonly held by athletes. They figure getting it on could cause them to lose focus. The opposite is actually true. Sex is a great stress reliever and can help clear your mind and relax you before a big meeting or game.

    Myth: Oysters make you horny

    The Truth: Skip shelling out on the raw bar when trying to get a date in bed. There's absolutely no scientific evidence that oysters boost the sex drive.
