Not remembering how many people I've slept with?

Was on the other thread about do you wish you've had less or more partners and wondered whether others can remember exactly how many people they've slept with.

Is it horrific I can't! Not that I've forgotten any as much as I stopped counting! Confused

I'm trying to make a list and think it's at around 30-50!

Is this an unusually high number! I didn't think it was but on the other thread it seems most people are at around 1-5!

Honestly only the least sharp knives in the old Mumsnet box would resort to the “You is well fick” comment.

Let’s check the thread to see who the main culprits are, shall we?! No prizes for guessing, guys!

Haven’t read it all skimmed a lot. Iv had one sexual partner because we’ve been together since we were 14. But one of my best friends is a very sexual person, she practices safe sex.

quipsandquotes Sex and nudity empower some and modesty empowers others and it’s not really anyone’s place to say which one it is.

As long as someone is practicing safe sex I couldn’t give a shit what their number is 🤷🏻‍♀️

This has turned in to a pile on from slut shamers and sexually repressed misogynists

Oh wow. Care to add another label, per chance!?

I'm more surprised someone who uses words for a living isn't more mindful to make that clear to be honest."

There are many I could think of but they'd just get deleted.

Oh, so now you feel free to pass judgement about me Fifi ? You sound lovely. If you heard a man say I shagged soooo many women most of whom I didn't give a shiny shite about and I can't remember them, let me guess...oh yeah they would be a misogynist too.

Absolutely. There’s so many subtleties surrounding people’s sex lives, that’s it’s impossible to state that “high number of partners = poor self-esteem”.

"If you heard a man say I shagged soooo many women most of whom I didn't give a shiny shite about and I can't remember them, let me guess...oh yeah they would be a misogynist too."

Exactly. Can you imagine if some bloke from some tacky reality show or somesuch started boasting about the fact that he'd worked his way through an entire hockey team. Would posters on here be giving him high fives and saying 'good for you'.

I doubt it.

BrightonGallery7 · 11/10/2018 12:34

Double standards.

BrightonGallery7 · 11/10/2018 12:35

Backed into a corner time, I fear.

I'm 26 and mine is higher than your larger estimate...

@AuntBeastie totally agree (your comment on first page)

It’s an interesting comparison.

For me, the difference would be anonymous vs not, so my gut feeling is that I would judge the method of delivery rather than number of partners.

Well what exactly does being quite hairy of hand mean ? How pathetic.

Clothrabbit · 11/10/2018 12:52

I think 'hairy of hand' means a troll lornar123

Fifi isn't it you who made that accusation on another thread, not a different poster?

DioneTheDiabolist · 11/10/2018 12:52

least sharp knives in the... box is a euphemism for stupid. The poster called people stupid for calling other people stupid. Therein lies the irony.

fifithefoof · 11/10/2018 12:54

@Clothrabbit

Another poster posted this

"First your bizarre statements on the sex partners thread and and now this conspiracy theory BS. lornar you must be some kind of troll. Either you are a paid Russian shit-stirrer or some right wing nut job. Every time I see anything from you it's always either deliberately obtuse or some kind of insult about personal choices other posters have made.

Why don't you go to stormfront or breitbart. I image you'd feel quite at home."

How is that me saying it? Hmm
