Q: How long does a pig's orgasm last?

A: In my experience, a boar's orgasm lasts, on average 11-14 minutes. A long-lasting boar can go over 20 minutes total. Some stop ejaculating part-way through, dismount, and then jump back up shortly afterwards to finish up. If a boar can go for 30 minutes straight I've never met him, but he may be out there, and would certainly be fuel for text in a book. The total volume of semen ejaculated is typically around 4 deciliters (yes, almost a half of liter) so you can imagine it can't be completed in few seconds.

Jim, What are you looking for him to pass out? That's not a line I want to be in, I've seen how those boys are deep down south.

Never confuse the movies with reality, Dan. That's a bad mistake.

My favorite story about place is this one:

A woman opened the door to a real estate office and entered. Seeing a salesman at his desk, she came over and said, "I'm thinking of moving here. What are the people like here?"

"What were the people like where you came from?" he replied.

"They were mean-spirited folks who talked about people behind their backs, never would lift a finger to help even a friend, and were insular and backwards. I can't wait to get out of there," she said.

"Well, that's pretty much what the people here are like, too," he said.

Disappointed, the woman got up and stalked out, slamming the door behind her.

A little while later, a man entered the office and approached the desk.

"My wife and I are thinking of moving here. Can you tell me what people are like?"

"What are people like where you are coming from?" the salesman asked.

"Oh, they're wonderful! They are kind and friendly and helpful, gentle spirited and community-minded. I hate to leave there but I've had a job offer here," the man said.

Replied the salesman, "That's pretty much what the people here are like, too."
