Do you care if your partner has had a lot of partners before you; does it turn you on that she has had a lot of dick inside her or do you absolutely get sick at the notion of the idea?

    I agree with the overall point that it doesn’t matter.

    I’ll just add/disagree: “body count” is just a phrase to indicate how many people you have slept with, and OP just asked a question, didn’t indicate a position on the matter. I don’t think it indicates immaturity to use a short, easy-to-understand phrase to communicate an idea.

    Even if hypothetically immature, I think people may have an emotional reaction even if they agree with all of the above. So I think it’s an interesting question.

      That’s fair; my experience is it’s something that crops up in chat when younger (I’ve not heard it in conversation with people my own age since the 2000s). Older people don’t really care…

      The question being phrased as a Boolean “does it turn you on or make you sick” was quite revealing. Once you’ve been around the block, the option “doesn’t matter” emerges.

      Although if the answer is “it turns me on”, you’re going to enjoy life haha.

      No, if you read the rest of the post all he talks about is how many “dicks” a girl has had inside of her. He definitely has a clear position, but it’s relative to gender, maybe not number of partners.
