Quickie (sex)
A quickie is a brief act of sexual intercourse.[1]
People will not usually engage in much foreplay with a quickie. The phrase is often used between regular partners to say that they wish to have sex, but cannot spend a great deal of time over it.
A quickie may not always mean copulation. It may be only be oral sex or mutual masturbation.[2] According to some, a quickie between a heterosexual couple generally satisfies only the man's desire.[2] Others claim that quickies (with intercourse or some other form of stimulation of the vulva) can be "a major turn-on" for a woman, too, but still may not give a woman enough time to lubricate naturally, and so require the use of a water-based lubricant.[3] Some consider quickies a solution to unequal sexual desire in a relationship, but if they become the only form of sex, the relationship may suffer.[2] For gay men, a quickie sometimes means casual sex, like a hand job.[4] It does not usually happen with lesbians, however.[5]
