Boning by the numbers

I saw a link to to this article that said "Average man sleeps with 7 women." Before clicking, the figure in the headline shocked me a great deal. "Good God! I'm 31 years old, and I'm behind the average! I've only ever slept with ONE! How could I have let this happen?" I thought. Then I read the article and was relieved to find that they didn't mean at once. Whew!

Do these number surprise anybody else? I guess of the friends whose sexual histories I know, the ones who fall below the median were married at a (relatively) young age. And the others... well... we just must be a bunch of whores. ;)

Jen said...

Uh oh. I was married young, yet still apparently fall under the "whore" category. I think those ladies were lyin'. Four? Seems awfully low. I think we're supposed to multiply by three...

Kristen and Jen...I've been sayin' that for years...

King Shocka Khan...wisdom infinito...

Jeremy said...

This is how WHORES look pretty for daddy!!! *smears lipstick across his chin*

Kristen, it does seem low compared to the experiences shared by most people I know. At least for women. I think Jen's got something. There's a saying about getting the real numbers of sexual partners by dividing the claimed number from men by 3 and tripling the number reported by women. Virgins and sluts!!!

SK, your wisdom amazes as always.

7 is a lot.

Jeremy said...

Hedy, compared to what? At what age is 7 a lot? 25? 35? 50?

Hedy De Vine said...

In general.

Jeremy said...

Hmm... if you'll excuse me, I have some sexual encounters to sweep under the rug. And I know exactly which ones I want to forget. *shudder*

Hedy De Vine said...

No need to sweep anything under the rug. I was just giving my opinion. I also thought 4 sounded low.

Jeremy said...

No, trust me. I'm sweeping these under the rug. I'm hammering myself over the head with a car jack until I forget.

Aliecat said...

Hmmm...well, I definately fall into the slut category if this study has any merit...

Jeremy said...

Abysmal Chick, have you ever had a drunken pity fuck? Even sadder.

Sluts Anonymous, next time send photos. But seriously, sorry you regretted so many of them. If you feel the urge to have more regret, let me know.

Alie, I'm going to start calling you Huffy because you're the town bicycle. Wah haaaa!!!

Aliecat said...

Not so fast...that was in my younger days...not so much anymore...

Jen said...

I've always been honest with my answer. I hope people haven't been doing the triple multiplier or I REALLY look like a whore.

Jeremy said...

Alie, whatevs, Huffy McSchwinn. ;-)

Jen, it's not so much the number that surprised or concerned me. I'm a little perplexed about how it has a fractional value, however.
