Whatever YOU do is "normal" for you. It may not be normal for others, but it is for you. There's no such thing as "normal" regarding sex, foreplay, oral sex, intercourse or anything else. For you, an hour may be normal. For others, two minutes may be normal.

If your question is being asked because it's TOO long for your taste, then you need to provide more information.

As Sakura said, there is no normal or abnormal when it comes to any kind of sex or whatever goes on during sex from likes and dislikes, how long intercourse lasts, etc.

In this case, he's the one who can last a long time, and you're the one who reaps the benefits. We're all different, and we all change from time to time. If he's never been able to last this long before, then he's probably figured out how to control it. As a female, as long as you don't get sore and dry (which can be alleviated by adding some lubricant) then just enjoy it.

Don't ever "compare" partners....don't worry about what other people can do, or can't do. Whatever happens between you two, if you're both happy with it, that's all that matters.

We do lots of foreplay(touching, kissing, oral, mutual masturbation, dirty talk, watching erotic DVD'S, toys, etc). She will usually cum once from oral or masturbation before we cum together during IC. After all of this actual IC is just a couple of minutes before we both cum. Occasionally we start off immediately with IC while watching an erotic DVD. In this case we sometimes have IC for 20-30 minutes. By the way we have been married 42 years and still have some type of sex 3-4 times a week.
