“Body count” is such a stupid fucking concept. It literally doesn’t matter as long as someone tests regularly. 🙄

So should it matter if she doesn't get tested?

I’m not looking down on anyone, however I think the amount of bodies someone has had can show their self respect. Big on the “I”, we can all have our own opinions but there are people out there who do think it’s important including myself.

I think it’s okay to want to have partners that also have a low body count so long as your not doing it in a judgemental way. Example “I prefer to only have sex with people I am in love with and would like my partner to hold the same values” is very different than “I want someone with a low body count bc it means they respect themselves more”. I personally don’t care but I can see both sides

Yeah but on the same note intercourse is something special, I’m not some religious person but I believe you should only have sex with someone when you trust them enough too, why risk having sex with someone when they could just be wanting your body for sex. Sec is something that is so very personal, I will never understand how people can just being having sex all the time with someone many people

No, it wouldn’t matter. The only that matters about someone’s sexual history is their testing. Transparency is key.

Yes but that's what sex means to *you.* Other people have attached different meanings on what sex means for them and are fine with engaging in it more casually. I can kind of get it with wanting your partner to value sex in the same way that you do if you want to be with them long-term, but it baffles me seeing how hostile some people will get over someone else's body count when it genuinely doesn't matter and doesn't affect them at all

Cool, that’s one person’s perspective and you’re welcome to have and operate with that. Shaming others and trying to enforce some arbitrary nonsense isn’t cool. Sex is no less special to me with a partner even if I’ve been with others. That’s not reflective of who I am or how good and close of a partner I can be, and the same applies to others.

I’m not shaming, I personally just disagree. We can have different views and that doesn’t mean I’m gonna shame someone for having a higher body count. https://ifstudies.org/blog/the-road-to-infidelity-passes-through-multiple-sexual-partners

A body count tells you nothing about someone’s current views on sex and sexuality. Also 21 by 21 doesn’t say much either, that could’ve been all in one day, one year, a lot at the beginning and little to none now, the opposite, etc I don’t understand why people judge so harshly based on one singular number

I wouldn’t say the concept of body count is toxic but being honest about it is, if you have a higher one you shouldn’t lie about it. It can show you about your partner's current maturity, emotional availability and also the respect you have for yourself.

I’m not saying that someone is a bad person for having a higher body count but sharing a high body count is lowering your value as a human and it’s unfortunate. sex is an intimate act that you share with your partner. I will never understand hookup culture and that’s my opinion. These are my views.

Well you can’t go back, you lacked enough self respect to go for something regretful and you can’t erase that. Does regret suddenly save you from being judged for your body count? Do you only apply that logic to yourself and not the others with higher numbers who regret their past? You’re one of them

its not about her number, if she's knowingly withholding the information that she has an std before she sleeps with someone then yeah that's a fucking problem obviously 💀 but the issue would lie in the fact that she's purposefully putting someone else at risk not with the amount of people she's slept with
