Who's bed have your boots been under?

Munchkin · 06-09-2006, 09:39 AM

Id really have to think to get an accurate number...thats kinda sad I know... but I dont feel like thinking back over the past 10 years and analyzing my bad choices ... so I just guessed

Age factors into it, as well. At 20, I'd had one lover, at 54, I've had 20 -30 (really don't feel like going back in the memory banks and counting each one exactly.

Is this the numbers of lovers you've had or the number of ladys with whom you had sex?

What, men don't count?

Apparently I forgot to whine about "under whose bed" vs. "who's been sleeping in my bed". Consider it whined about. That and "ladies" vs. "ladys"; surely if ending a preposition is something up with which we will not put, we can get our plurals, posessives and contractions correct.

Have you been told today? If not consider it done.

And for the record, the correct answer is, "That's nobody's business but my own."

It would have been interesting to see the 1-10 broken down more. I know that there are only 10 vote slots, but since that's where the larger number will go, I would have broken the higher numbers into larger ranges.

That's just my

Hmmm...lots of cognitive dissonance out there amongst the senor players. :-)

Ohhh thanks Lookout, I was actually thinking about starting a thread like this, but couldnt figure out whether to put ages in or not.

I dont have a definitive number, so I took a guess, I am hoping it was on the generous side. :p

I don't think its so much cognitive dissonance, as embarassment about that bartender I slept with once back in S.F. in '89 when I was on a convention out in Cali that year. Then there's the guy I met in treatment, etc.,etc. Shit! Have I ever been a slut! I wanna say the real number was about 5 - the first guy I was engaged to at 19, the guy I actually married at 23, the guy I got engaged to briefly after my divorce and the ax murderer.

Alas, there were far more than that, and it is shame rather than dissonance which prevents me from digging back in memory to give a more exact accounting.

Think about all the things humans do that are TRULY shameful. They lie, cheat, judge, destroy, harm, kill, etc. Don't kick yourself for needing & giving the comfort of human contact. You know how some folks, right after the death of a loved one, want/need to make love? So it must be instinctual to procreate in the face of death...makes sense, because the act of sex is life giving. So sex is about survival, on a primal level.

It's also about love for many, and the search for it. And there's nothing wrong with wanting that.

I'm with you and others about some of the bad choices I made...I may feel some regret but not shame. And most of the regret is that I couldn't see through my own BOS clearly enough to make better choices.

Cut yourself some slack here, and get that little nun out of your head!

i'll admit it - i'm one of the 91+ sluts. not an issue i'm proud of really, but whatever. the truth is I don't regret a single one of them. not because i want that notch in the bedpost but because each and every one of them holds some different value or special spot in my memory. they were all different, each taught me something, and only one of them thinks i'm walking slime. as far as i know, anyway.

Oh yeah? Each one is special, huh? What are their names?
