There is the issue of an orgasm before penetration, but barring that, does the length of intercourse have any bearing on reproduction?

Maybe for other animals but not humans. The fact that we're one of the few creatures that enjoy sex is the evolutionary trait. In the world before contraceptives, humans enjoying sex meant more procreation.

    ... How do we know only a few other creatures enjoy sex? It seems like it'd be a good idea for evolution to do that with any animal that can enjoy things, and it's not like we can ask most of them.

    I asked my dog if he enjoys sex. He looked at me with a stern look and asked "Where are you going with this?"

    Humans are unusual that females don't show easily perceptible signs of ovulation and willingly fuck outside of that window.

    I read somewhere that many species will do the same. Hell, bonobos will fuck often; homo, hetero, doesn't matter. It's part of their society.
