So 50 is, superwhore?
Today I learned that I am far from being a whore 😢
Average seems like a weird statistic to use here. I’d want to at least also know the median.
One of the things I learned from “How to Lie with Statistics,” is when an article or ad says “average” thet could mean the mean, median, or mode depending on which fits the desired narrative best. The reader usually assumes the writer is referring to the mean which helps in establishing these misleading narratives.
The median must be 2 or 3 then.
OK, so where do I apply for these 5 sexual partners?
Grindr
guys should we tell him?
:3
With a username like that, OP’s in luck. Lilith likes to ride on top.
(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.
Yeah, I’m in the 11-25 range too, which is actually surprising to me. I’ve two friends who probably are the tier above that and the vast majority of the people I know are below that.
The only person I can think of that may have been even a tier above that did some work in that area, was an attractive girl, and high libido. Definitely an outlier.
TBH though I would’ve thought the average would’ve been higher
^jesus.
…just, how?
Edit: Also, if the sequence is adjusted to sum to 100% (≠104), the last line would be more accurate as 0.01%.
I’m in my slut era!
I say to myself
Sitting in my apartment alone
For the billionth day in a row
Well, at least you seem to be immortal
Feels like it, I’d love to kill myself
Id imagine there’s a few zeros dragging the average down.
I’m a picky slut and only have had seven sexual partners. One of them had over 50, though.
So there’s at least 55 people with no partners we’re making up for
I had 30 that I can actually remember when I count them out. And can only remember the names of 15 of them. So am I down right slut or is this not correct. Maybe it counting woman. Most women I met or been with numbers was in the low tens or single digit numbers. It’s always men who I heard have huge numbers.
Then again some may lie. Once met a 22 year old who claimed he slept with 300 women. I didn’t by that shit at all. At 22 I been with only 4. I didn’t really start getting laid a lot until I discovered online dating. The amount of hookups through that app is off the charts.
Men and women have hooked up with the same number of men and women. Just how the math works out. 1 dude sleeps with 5 different women, means 5 women all added 1 to their number.
Except that people can be gay.
Yea, that’s why I specifically didn’t mention that.
Ok but choosing not to mention that doesn’t mean that you don’t have to account for it. It just means you’re being wrong on purpose
It’s over complicating my point when it isn’t necessary at the time. I don’t know the numbers, but most people aren’t having sex with both genders. So yes, there will be variance, but on the whole the numbers will be equal.
Guess I’m a whore too, if that is true. I in the mid tens with sex partners. I thought I was on the low end. Is this a legit statistic?
Mormons be skewing the data!
Wait, they’re shaking the data tables now, too?
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”
I’m right there with ya, in my own way, and I swear to all that’s holy: the next one won’t be the last — but it also won’t be the previous one (s). And, that’s enough for me to make damn sure I work on me in the meantime. 🤘🏼
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.
That’s slut logic, I’m also slut
My straight friends think I’m a whore and my gay friends think I’m a pilgrim 🤷🏻
Some of my friends also take time off from constant fucking to wax poetic on my proclivities. It’s their way of expressing envy. They’re such dears.
Im too Asexual to get this :3
Woo ace power
Median might be a better measure here one feels!
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.
The way I’d put it is: what’s the distribution look like? I’d guess it’s not a “bell curve” normal distribution, but more of a “two peak” bimodal distribution with one peak around 1-3 and the other peak somewhere to the right of 5. (but again, that’s just a guess)
