herewegoagain Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 A coworker and I were having a discussion yesterday and were wondering what is the average number of sexual partners for men and woman at different ages? For example - how many partners by age 20, age 25, age 30, age 35, age 40 and so on?. Lets assume for people who are single, never married. Just curious as what you all think these nembers would be. Thanks. Link to comment
sparkle1 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 OK 20 - 5 25 - 10/15 30 - 25 35- 30 40 - 35 And this is based on being single as you said!! Link to comment
jengh Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I think it will vary drastically depending on lifestyles. For example, if someone went away to a big university and partied a lot, I think their number will be significantly higher than those who weren't into partying. I know that holds true for me and my friends... Link to comment
sparkle1 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Jen - play the game!!! We all know it depends on loads of factors...but if base it on what you think if you stayed unmarried and single - what would think the numbers would be? Sparkle xx Link to comment
jengh Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 20-20 25-25-30 30-30-35 35-35-40 40-40-45 Link to comment
sparkle1 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Cool! Cheers for posting - wasn't have a dig! Sparke xx Link to comment
jengh Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 im just a bit embarrassed of my number, that's all... even that's lower, but it's averaged between my friends and me Link to comment
chigal28 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Obviously it depends on if there are long-term relationships factored in there...but since we're going with single, I'm going to say that if a person started being active when they were...oh, let's say 18 for an average, and then slept with 3-4 people a year from that point on, it would be about: 20--10-12 25--25-30 30--40-50 And so on.

locolady Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I lived in a house of 8 girls at university and we one day (students will do anything to avoid their work you know!) added our numbers together to see what the average was....we were all aged 21 or 22 at the time Bearing in mind an enormous difference between us - the lowest at 2 and the highest being 50 +, we reached an average of (rounded up) 13 so i reckon your estimates so far are probably about right.

applepie Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I've had 6 at 20 and I don't intend to double that number in the next 10 years. I'd like to settle down with someone when I'm 28 or so. It's still always possible. I also don't tend to have one night stands. I feel they are one night only for a reason. I don't necessarily have relationships with all these people, but the f-buddy has been fairly common for me. Link to comment
MagicToilet Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 2 at 21.. how the hell can someone have been with 10 at 20? I guess I am weirded out because of my low number.. But I would just have guessed that most people would be like me and perfer the be with the one special person.. Well maybe not most men but most women. I have been with 2 because I was with my first girl for about 2 years and I have been with my current girl for a little over 2 years now.. Link to comment
rocio Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I would think it would be higher for men than for women, but I could be wrong about that. Link to comment
applepie Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I read on the Durex website that the average person in the united states has had 13 or so partners. Obviously there would be many who have had more and many who have had less, but between the ages of 18 and 60 (I think it was), that was the average. It varies greatly from country to country. I encourage everyone to look at the website as it tells you averages of all types of sex practices ie. age of loss of virginity, number of sex acts per week etc. link removed Link to comment
EvaGina Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 haaha Well, I have no idea what to say some of my friends have only slept with 1 or 2 people... some over 40 meh to the average I say! Link to comment
Batya33 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 20-25 - 1 25-30- 2 additional 30-35- 1 additional 35-40 - 1 additional. (under 24= 0). Had I accepted all real opportunities presented by people I dated my numbers probably would have been closer to 35 total and those were where it was made clear to me that they wanted to have s_x with me. I also was in several long term relationships over the last 25 years and I never had s_x outside of those relationships. I had a a few serious long term relationships before age 24 as well. Most of my friends - male and female - have had many more partners than I have. Link to comment
melrich Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 s_x with me. I also was in several long term relationships over the last 25 years and I never had s_x outside sex is not a banned word on the forum. Link to comment

I was with way more than 10 when I turned 20 and Im far beyond that now... but I went on a bit of a spree after my financee and I broke up Link to comment
papalazarou Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Im 34 and I have had 17. I see what Sparkle is saying, but I was with someone for 13 years from 16 to 29 and she was my first. So from 29 - 34 its been 16... Blimey. Link to comment

We took anonymous surveys in my human sexuality course in college, and some of the 19-20 year old girls in the class had slept with upwards of fifty people. It freaks me out. I don't understand how anyone can have sex with that many people. Link to comment
yeawutever Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 It depends on how long the relationshion lasted. Some people had more than 10 partners in their lifes while others only stay with one and eventually marry him/her. Link to comment

Yeah seriously, I don't get it either. That would be like sleeping with everyone who has flirted with me, or propositioned me. Sounds like walking STD's. Link to comment
