Is it a problem that anyone has put significant effort into? What's the state of the evidence?
Now that I think about it, I'm a little surprised there isn't a subculture of people trying to excel at sex, sort of the way pickup artist try an excel at getting sex.
Is this because there is no technique for for doing sex well? Because most people think there's no technique for for doing sex well? Because sex is good enough already? Because sex is actually more about status than pleasure? Because such a subculture exits and I'm ignorant of it?
I'm sure there is, but I don't think it would want to be very... public about it. For one thing, I wouldn't be surprised if competent professionals were very good (and very expensive).
Given Christianity's prudishness (thank you, St.Augustine), you may also want to search outside of the Western world -- Asia, including India, sound promising.
But as usual, one of the first questions is what do you want to optimize for. And don't forget that men and women start from quite different positions.
I don't know what you mean by this.
The physiology of men and women is significantly different.
