Green-light countdown?
Samhita at Feministing pointed out this gross advice column on askmen.com on "Training Your Girlfriend."
There are many things to tackle there, but one comment that Samitha made sparked a whole other conversation. Matt Fitzgerald of AskMen said that men have to be on their best behavior so that they can get the ever-elusive nookie. Nonsense, Samitha said:
Boyfriend says two weeks of dates (avg three dates a week) is a reasonable amount of time. I'd think that's a minimum. What do you think?

OK pinch me if I am dreaming here, but who does that? I have, let's see, NO friends that don't have sex with a guy within the first week of dating him. It is a myth that men are more into sex than women in relationships. If anything, from what I have experienced and heard from my friends is it is quite the opposite.Word on the men-more-into-sex myth. No gender has a monopoly on libido. But is it true that sex is a given within the first week of dating?

Its all relative. If it feels right at the time, then it will happen. I don't think there is any real time-limit on that kind of stuff.
it will happen when it happens and you go from there.
