What's Your Magic Number
So the question on the table is "How many partners can a person admit to being with before you lose interest?" For example, if you meet a guy or girl, and he or she has had sex with 10 people, is that too much? Even though crazy amounts of sex gives the impression that someone could have something, it's not a fact. If the person has had their checks and is clean (certifiably so), then does it matter how many people they've been with?
We all know there is a double standard when it comes to "the magic number," like women should only have a couple (2 or 3) lovers while men just shouldn't be in double digits. Why is it that men can bed as many females as they want, and they are called "pimps," but a female that keeps it safe, but knocks it out whenever the heck she feels like it is a "hoe?" Not our rule, just the rule we've heard. The problem with the rule is we know dudes that have crossed the 100 yard line (and back!) and still get buns on the regular, crazy. But, let's be honest, number 101 probably has no idea.
Because of the emphasis "the number" gets, do people really have honest conversations about it anymore anyway? What did Chris Rock say -
"Guys - never ask a woman how many guys she's fucked because you don't want to know...because no matter what she says it's too much for you! She can say two and you'll be like, 'what...we'll I guess that's how you were raised'!"The truth of the matter is, as long as you are both safe and clean, it really shouldn't matter whether the number is 3, 15, 30, 45...or more than that. What should matter is what you are willing to deal with. Unfortunately, the double-standard still exits, and that's going to leave very few women that are willing to be honest about their number, and very fey guys that really want to know (and vice versa).
Ladies, gentlemen....do you still ask? If you do, are you asking because you really want to know, or are you asking to see if you'll get an answer at all? Have you decided to stop asking because you aren't willing to share your number (whether because you think they'll think its too high or hell, maybe too low)!? Let's get the conversation started now. I want to know what you think, how you handle the topic, and most importantly..."What's your magic number?"
