Today I learned that I am far from being a whore 😢

Today i learned I'm a virgin

Average seems like a weird statistic to use here. I'd want to at least also know the median.

OK, so where do I apply for these 5 sexual partners?

https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/new-data-here-s-how-many-sexual-partners-most-americans-have-had/ar-BB1ob50P

(This study was conducted by Dr. Jenni Skyler, PhD, LMFT, C-PST, licensed marriage and family therapist, certified sex therapist, board-certified sex researcher and a spokesperson for Adam & Eve, a sex toy company that commissioned the study)

Results suggest nearly 10% of individuals polled said they'd never had sex, while 35% said they'd been with one partner. Forty-three percent reported between two to 10 partners, and 7% had been with 11 to 25 partners. Just over 4% said they'd had intercourse with 26 to 40, 2% said they had 41 to 75, 3% reported 76 to 100 partners, and 3% reported more than 100 partners.

So, if you go by median instead of mean, its probably actually lower than 5 (probably 3 ish?), as 45% of people have had one sexual partner or less.

Displayed in another way:

0 partners : 10% of pop.

1 partner: 35% of pop.

2 - 10 partners: 43% of pop.

11 - 25 partners: 7% of pop.

26 - 40 partners: 4% of pop.

41 - 75 partners: 2% of pop.

76 - 100 partners: 3% of pop.

100+ partners: 3% of pop.

Last time I was on a dating app that had a free commenting ability and like community threads... think it was boo? Some kind of weird, basically instagram but for dating, but everyone just used it like it was instagram...

I'd run into like 23 year olds saying shit like 'this person my age was saying they've got a 200+ body count, is that normal?'

And I'd respond 'It's not impossible, but uh, chances are that they're either lying, or they're literally a sex worker, pornstar or something, that's extremely abnormal.'

I'm 35 and in the 11-25 tranche, more than average, maybe even outside of one StdDev, but its astounding how many people think that just everyone has an average of a different sexual partner for every week or two past the age of 16.

There are people that approximate that, but its pretty damn rare.

I'm in my slut era!

I say to myself

Sitting in my apartment alone

For the billionth day in a row

Id imagine there's a few zeros dragging the average down.

I would probably have been a whore but I hit a brick wall at 26. Had like 6 relationships from 18-26 and then 0 after. Over a decade later, almost 40 now it's really feeling like that last one is really the last. "lol"

Consider the fact that people have vastly different opinions on sex. Some people don't want to do it outside of commitment. Some never want to do it at all.

If your number is higher than the average, it means nothing. The average for your subgroup may be vastly different, so there is no reason to bring in a value judgment.

Tldr: I'd love to see a study of how many different partners the average wild slut has.

Median might be a better measure here one feels!

Im too Asexual to get this :3

I feel like there's some statistical fuckery going on here. I feel like in a lot of super religious communities 2 is a lot, maybe 3 depending on how many youth pastors talked you into a blowie when you were 14. Versus in a lot of more liberal communities premarital sex and divorces are a lot more common. And those communities reproduce like fucking rabbits vs other communities are out here fucking a lot but only reproducing responsibly.

I've also wondered if a lot of the highly religious women I grew up with finding sex unpleasant or a chore is mostly just due to the sex being bad. If they won't even tell you what a clitoris is, the men are literally taught that they're owed it and they don't need to bother making it pleasant, and then add in that (EDIT: LATE) masturbation in women is associated with inability to orgasm as an adult... best case scenario most of the experience is just one long chafing sensation. No wonder all the women I grew up with mostly just found the whole thing gross!

edit: lol my phone cut out the word late before masturbation and that completely changes the meaning of that sentence. What I meant to say is that studies show that if women don't masturbate when they're young they're at much higher risk for anorgasmia later in life.

I wonder if that statistic is still true since the proliferation of "dating" apps. You used to have to put in a considerable amount of effort for a one-night-stand. I was already married before dating apps hit the scene, but my understanding is there are millions of people out there just messaging "wanna fuck?" to each other and then hooking up for the night. Society's attitude towards ~~being a ho~~ casual sex is quite different now too. So, I question the accuracy of their average statistic in modern times.
