The 5 minute rule is a term used usually by overtly cocky men to explain how they can make a woman orgasm in under 5 minutes by going down on them.

This 5 minute rule is usually used along with bets made from both parties. These bets are almost 100% of the time won by the woman, because their male partners are just so ridiculously wrong.

On rare occasion though, some woman will feel the benefits of the 5 minute rule.

This term is also commonly used in text messages like the following:

"5 in 3 minutes. Bathroom. Be there"

"oh look at that, it's the 5th day of the 5th month. the 5 minute rule is about to be put to use. Get ready."

See orgasm, cocky, joke

3.

A variation of the 5 second rule, which dictates that food dropped into an awkward or uncomfortable place is still edible if retrieved within five minutes. Often conceived to be a more chivalrious instead of just plain ol' disgusting, especially if a man retrieves food dropped by a woman and eats it himself, replacing her loss with something that didn't touch the floor. It is also a more applicable rule than the 5-second variation when the moment of dropping the food is particularly ironic and demands a short pause for the appreciation of the twistedness of the world.
