People start to get offended or take things out of context, things like that. Like I said in my last post I've had an average or below average number of partners and I prefer a woman that has had a similar sexual history. Now this might seem like no big deal and a normal outlook to you but I've honestly had women attack me for having this attitude.
There is no reason why anyone should be attacked for having a preference like yours. It's not like you're Wilt Chamberlain demanding a virgin. I think it's completely reasonable to seek out partners with a similar sexual history as yours.

And count me in as one of those old-fashioned people who cares about a potential partner's sexual history. I don't care if they're STD free or not. Having a history of promiscuity is just not attractive to me.

Well this 'awful' atheist here has kept count...

One.


...oh, and her atheist husband has only had one too!

Of course, I guess our personal feelings about the specialness of sharing sexuality with one person are meaningless, because it's not backed up by religion and/or fear of god(s).

love with many is dilution of "i love you". eventually you remember the sex but not the face and name. people that aspire to acquire knowledge of relationships by many sex partners do not. they become experts at revolving doors. revolving doors that always lead to a cold dark street. they learn to play a skilled part- a role that works with most they meet --- for 60 days.

If a man is going to base his opinion of me on how many sexual partners I have had, that’s not a man I want in my life.

Sex feels good.

Life is short. Have fun and make the most of it. I don't want to be with any woman who's only had 1 or 2 lovers. I want her to have had some experiences as to have no curiosity later down the road. Do I want to hear every detail of each one? no, but I'm secure enough to be able to handle the fact that she's been with others before me. Then again I've risen above the sexual repressed majority. As for my number, it's not that high (40) for a 35 year old because I do exercise precautions to avoid contracting anything and I was married for 7 years.

Do they actually have a number in their head, of exactly how many they have had.
Actually this isn't 100% accurate. As a teenager I woke up in the same bed as a girl after a drunken night (as well as other substances).
No Idea if anything went on or not, don't remember.

The things you do as a teenager, those days are well behind me.

And here I was thinking I'd had a lot since my count is 16. Well, unless you consider "just" oral sex too. Then it's 18.

Yes, I agree. I would go further and say women (and men) who have sex with thousands of people often have childhood sexual abuse in their past.

^^^This is the truth^^^

Let's just say I learned this the hard way

IMO, having lots of sex partners also increases your risk of depression (in addition to HIV & STDs).

Totally INSANE!
She almost certainly is HIV+...or will be soon. Most likely she will have other STDs as well (hepatitis C, chlamydia, gonorrhea, etc.)
