1: What's the point of all the talk about N-count if there's no way to even determine any given woman's N-count? It's literally impossible. All you can know is that if she decides to tell you then it almost certainly isn't less than the number she gives because she has every incentive to under-report rather than over-report the number.

2: Are there ANY circumstances under which a woman might over-report her N-count, and what would be the implications if that possibility were there as well as underreportage? Maybe she wants to say that you're the best she's ever had out of a huge number of men so as to boost your ego. The lower the better, I would think. If she has potential incentive to overestimate and underestimate then (my logic/math isn't great so feel free to correct me) it seems like the number she gives you is totally useless...it carries zero information. It could be accurate, it could be less, or it could be more...

3: What is the best method/mechanism to determine a given woman's N-count, apart from asking?

4: How do you go about asking about her N-count and isn't it incredibly rude to ask as well as dangerous/risky because she might react extremely negatively? Apparently asking about N-counts has ruined many happy relationships.

5: How often do angelic/chaste/virginal woman actually have a secret "slutty" past? This is every man's nightmare-scenario. There's no way to disprove this nightmare-scenario. Maybe it's a dumb question because you can never find out the N-count, as mentioned above. (And even if the N-count were 1 then it might have been the best dick in the history of the universe for all you know, and she might have been orgasming until she forgot her name and worshipping that god-like super-Chad dick for all you know...so even if the N-count is 1 then you might be pathetic by comparison, yielding yet another nightmare-scenario in addition to the "secret slut" nightmare-scenario.)
