How many men / women have you slept with?

[ElizabethX]

Assuming you can remember that is.

Today for the first time ever I counted and it is 14 / 0*.

I am 35. This is just under 1 a year since I became sexually active (started late...4th term at uni). I'm not counting youthful messing about, I mean full sex.

This doesn't seem so many to me and obv its going to depend when you became monogamous anyway. But, I have seen articles that suggest a much lower figure, eg 7 for men 4 for women.

Am I a bit of a slapper (which I would be fine with, I enjoyed it) or are all these people just lying? I think the latter, because judging by who I have spoken to 14 is much more typical than 4.

• 14 men I think ** no women I am sure

can you actually get off based on the NUMBER of people someone else has had???

wow that is a cheap date

you would be surprised, UC

I have a picture if some little wanker sat at the PC furiously masturbating over a few numbers ha ha

How does a woman have full sex with another woman.

And no, I'm not telling. Although I obviously haven't slept with any women.

perhaps someone should tell 'little wanker' about pi..

Why 'obviously' Lynette?

"But I find it really rather weird that some people have only had one partner in 20 years or so."

I have been married for 32 years and have never cheated on my husband. Why is that so weird?

I am not telling what I got up to before I met OH

Well, if I'd slept with a woman, I'd know how to have sex with them.

The fact that I don't get lesbian sex has always been a source of great amusement to DH.

Isn't lesbian sex just the same as hetero but without a cock ?

Do you consider only penetration to be "true" sex, Lynette ?

Ermmm.....I think so. I haven't given it much thought. But for me, personally, yes. I think. Although I'm sure other people think their sex lives are fab without penetration. But I don't get it. (This is the bit where DH starts laughing.)

say no more, the little wanker is gearing up

I can hear the friction from here ....

I think we need to talk about something less inspiring. Like paint for example. I get a lot of pleasure from watching it dry.......

I am choosing chocolate brown nail varnish, atm

Very smart!
I don't wear it much but am contemplating some for this week when I'm presenting a poster at a conference.
Don't know if your remember my dd's dodgy ankle AF - hurt it in school PE and had to limp with a stick for weeks? It got ok-ish then she hurt it again in PE (!) and I took her off PE till after Christmas - about 4 weeks - and now it's fine again.

I've slept with hundreds, both male and female, over the years.

Some dribbled.Some snored.

I prefer my own room nowadays rather than Youth Hostel dorms.

Gosh, yes, NL, I do remember your dd's ankle

It might be a bit "dodgy" for a little while yet.

Yes we're keeping a close eye on it. Poor kid has been through the wars. There are some signs she may have inherited the family migraine gene, her psoriasis has been pretty dire AND poor lamb had to have a milk tooth extracted so the second could grow straight and because of her heart defect she had to swallow a lot of foul antibiotics beforehand.

Erk, poor thing.

doh......fuck a duck.
why dont i read first and answer later?????????

A serious question to add to this interesting topic......

Condoms..... regarding PIV, what percentage of you used condoms?

Two men, no women. Have only ever even kissed two men (the same two!) I'm 28
