How many men / women have you slept with?

343 replies

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

The only man I've slept with is my husband of 18+ years.

Probably makes me a bit crazy, but that's it for us (I'm also his only).

4/0 with the obvious messing around otherwise. Only two of them were worth it at all, luckily DP is one of the worth it ones :) Hopefully that's it for me, I'm 25 and have been with DP 7 and a half years.

3/0. Till I got with DP, I'd have preferred the first number to be higher....now I hope it never goes higher. Fooled round with plenty more mind - but again I hope DP is the last!

I started at age seventeen. The one who took my virginity (my boyfriend) seemed to have left some behind. We split ( I didn't like the sex with him, not that I told him). Between the ages of eighteen and twenty I had five sexual partners, then met my daughter's father and had her at age twenty two. We split and I took a conscious break for about a year and then got back on the wagon until I met another partner at age thirty - thirty two. The split was amicable, so I didn't do any "soul searching and got back on the wagon again ( again, I had lots of fun). I met my recent ex at the age of forty and we were together for nearly two years and considering what he did and what he is , I think my downstairs region has shrivelled into a raisin. Thank God I got to have fun when I could. My"nature" isn't as strong as it was. Or maybe I am a bit more picky. Mind you I am going on a date on Thursday ( a "daytime" date). Hopefully this guy isn't a plonker as my garden needs watering even if I am enjoying my present status.
No women. I'd say about forty men ( without having to think about it too much). I love good nookie. It's the great leveller.

Mid thirties.

I think about 45-ish blokes. God, tried to count it up just now and got a bit confused (...and sidetracked...reminscing on youthful one-night stands with memorable guys like 'small willy man', 'enormous cock man' and 'very strange shaped dick man' Grin).

3 women if we're talking full-on going for it sex...

I embrace my youthful slack ways. Twas fun and you're along time dead

12 - 2 long term relationships (inc the one I'm in now) and 10 flings/ one night stands.

I racked up a lot of random sex in a short period of time, after sleeping with my now Dp after a few dates I vowed to go celibate if it didn't work out. Luckily it did lol

Oh dear ... been making a list. Now blushing furiously ... but I AM 71 and had a very misspent middle age! On the other hand, I was a virgin when I first married, at just 20

Am a man aged 35 & (Full-Time) Father of one but as to Men/Women as per the Title Question of the thread?

Have slept with (as in full on the Works/PIV whatever you want to name it?) 7 women & No Men. I guess that? May seem on the (Rather) Low side but I often have HUGE & terrible self-confidence & endurance issues when it comes to relationships & maintaining them or even TRYING to (never mind DOING?) successfully attract members of the opposite sex FOR r'ships? When I DO manage to succeed? The results tend to be mixed but IF we last beyond a LITTLE while? We tend to last For YEARS. My last few r'ships? Have been 1 & a bit years, 6 years & 2 years if that's any guide?

Anyway? That's me...................Confused Biscuit
