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!

Yes, I did but I don't see where she was calling posters 'thick'. She was simply saying that some of them were lowering themselves to the level of the men that we used to think were thick and shallow with their empty boasting.

And the second bit is quoted out of context in fairness. Another poster had said she was going to use very small words because she thought Quipsandwhatever had problems understanding big words. In that context, the response was perfectly justified.

hen

You keep taking things out of context and seem rather vicious if I’m honest. Glad to hear you have such a live and let live attitude to sex. Maybe you could adopt the same on conversation too. Just a thought. Because you’ve taken lumps out of anyone who disagrees with you on here. As has the op. It isn’t very pleasant.

Some of you sound like the kind of thick, shallow men we used to despise

You're seriously going to twist it and defend it? OK.

And the second bit is quoted out of context in fairness

No it wasn't.

Well of course you do. You need to say that don't you to make yourself sound better.

lornar123 · 12/10/2018 14:36

There is nothing grim about women wanting and enjoying sex, there is something grim about trying to say that your sex life is better than somebody else's because you had so many different lovers.

I've also spent most of my life in longish relationships and I find the idea that I don't know my own body because I haven't shagged enough different (different being the key becaysd i had loads of sex and on a regular basis) blokes distasteful.

Stonebake · 12/10/2018 14:38

Of course I do what Confused?

seeyouhen · 12/10/2018 14:38

Stonebake

Are you not used to people disagreeing with you or standing up to you?

Stonebake · 12/10/2018 14:38

Ha! That’s ironic. You’ve been throwing your weight around all through the thread.

seeyouhen · 12/10/2018 14:39

Of course I do what

Of course you do think that.

You keep taking things out of context and seem rather vicious if I’m honest

God forbid someone has a typing error. Must be cos am fick.

MicroManaged · 12/10/2018 14:40

Yeah we know...we have partners who we have chemistry and emotional connections with too

Defensive much? 🙈

seeyouhen · 12/10/2018 14:40

I don't agree but it's very clear you don't like someone to stand up to you.

MicroManaged · 12/10/2018 14:42

Stonebake has been probably the most placid and reasoned poster on the thread, more than most.

seeyouhen · 12/10/2018 14:42

Defensive much?

Not one bit defensive just clarifying that we have the same connections with our partners. Did you not like me pointing that out?

MicroManaged · 12/10/2018 14:45

You’re becoming funny seeyouhen. I can almost see the steam Grin Yet you continue to insist you’re chill avout it all and open and liberal and all the rest.

fifithefoof · 12/10/2018 14:46

It's really sad to see some of the views other women are so nastily putting forward on other women on this thread.

I'm not surprised people are getting defensive with words like 'grim, ick, yuck, slut, slag, disgusting' are used.

I've said it before on this thread but I'll say it again, we've clearly not come as far as some would like to think.

fifithefoof · 12/10/2018 14:47

Using liberal as an insult (which has happened a few times) is very telling too. No casual sex, no swearing. Back in your boxes women.

Thank you micro I was beginning to doubt myself for a minute there! Oh well. Thanks for showing your true colours again hen. Let’s say our goodbyes there. I don’t want to be subjected to any more of your implications tbh.

Courtney555 · 12/10/2018 14:49

Haven't rtft. I reckon I've got to be around the 70-80 mark. In the 5yrs of teens to early twenties, would be all of them bar 6. I've been in relationships for the last 14yrs.

Nothing to regret, my teens to twenties were fab, my twenties to thirties are too.

If I hadn’t been in relationships, it would definitely be higher.

seeyouhen · 12/10/2018 14:51

You’re becoming funny seeyouhen. I can almost see the steam

You're totally deluded. It would take more than the likes of you to upset me.

seeyouhen · 12/10/2018 14:52

Oh yes, even though she outed the OP a few pages ago.

seeyouhen · 12/10/2018 14:53

You're not used to someone standing their ground it would appear.

Stonebake · 12/10/2018 14:55

I didn’t deliberately out her and I immediately apologised for what was a stupid but innocent mistake. You’re taking that completely out of context and I’ve already asked you to please stop engaging with me or making your unfair and nasty comments.

Lydiaatthebarre · 12/10/2018 14:55

Yes it was posted out of context seeyouhen

I repeat:

And the second bit is quoted out of context in fairness. Another poster had said she was going to use very small words because she thought Quipsandwhatever had problems understanding big words. In that context, the response was perfectly justified.

The post actually said that there was no need for jacqueshammer to use small words as she was an English lit grad. and paid well for her skill with words. It was a measured reply to a very rude post.

Stonebake · 12/10/2018 14:55

Standing your ground? You’re doing more than that, as I’m sure you must know.

seeyouhen · 12/10/2018 14:57

Can you please show me an untrue, nasty or unfair comment that I've made about you?
