Some people were asked what they thought was the “magic number” of sex partners — more than X being too many, and less than X showing likely sexual inexperience.
The number X: twelve (or to be accurate: not X but XII).
My guess is that most of the respondents weren’t around in the 1970s. “Twelve” would have been an annual average, back then.
Here’s a totally gratuitous pic of a Seventies girl (Christina Lindberg), just to show what we guys had to deal with, temptation-wise, in those days:
Yeah, call me old-fashioned (take a number), but I love the clothes women wore back when I was in my late teens and early twenties.
In the sixties, I tried to join the sexual revolution but I couldn’t find the recruiting office.
Twelve – for a man? What’s the right number for a woman?
I think the answer was the same for both sexes.
