Holy talk about stuff batman!
Do I dare take the plunge of joining on this conversation?...Hells yes, My humble standpoint:
From a mans perspective, I agree that I wouldn't date a girl with a large number of sexual partners however for different reasons that have been listed (as far as I can tell). I was raised in a religious home and even though I'm not a religious person now the moral lessons I learned are with me today. My mom was never shy about the sex talk and at a very young age I was taught to have a tremendous amount of respect for my body and the people I choose to share it with.
I've been approached indirectly by women for nothing but sex and when I was younger I took those opportunities, but in the end it left me feeling worse about myself. Now that I'm older I don't just go out and have sex with anyone, I keep it to people who I have respect for and care about on some level, and I hold women to those standards as well. I don't think that's unreasonable
I do agree that women are held to a huge double standard in our society. I also believe that women's sex drives can be just as strong or stronger than men, but they can't always act on on it because of the social stigmas the could face. This doesn't mean that they cheat on their partners routinely. Most of the mistrust guys have for women comes from their own insecurities. I know because I was that way when I was younger and it cost me a fantastic girl. Now that I'm older I'm more sure of myself and my abilities to attract and maintain a healthy relationship.
Fffffffffff I should be studying.
