I do believe that the number of partners we have, man or woman, can significantly impact a person. Whether for good or bad we can leave to another time. I also believe that while N Count has the potential to affect both genders significantly, there are important gender differences in its impact.

I'm also talking about the direct, actual impact of N Count; and not what types of traits N Count is correlated to. That is another question entirely.

However, I recently had a new idea about N Count that I would like to test. Namely, the idea that a lot of the 'damage' that many people feel N Count can do is also done by many other aspects of modernity. I think many people who have bought into the idea that 'N Count matters' have at least partially been persuaded by age old arguments about promiscuity; arguments that may well be very legitimate in and of themselves with respect to human nature. But they are also from another time.

Consider the difference between a low or high n count person in say 1950, and someone in 2022. Let's use a middle class college girl as an example. Back in 1950, actual sex would be her primary avenue of exposure to really intense and explicit sexuality. So if she had a count of 1 or 0, she really had little exposure.

But today, how much does a relatively low N Count of say 3 or 4 matter if that same college girl masturbates with a vibrator to porn, sees scantily clad images of perfect people on every screen all day, and is exposed to fairly explicit sex in every movie and TV show? And if her friends all fuck around a lot, and share graphic details about it? In 2022, does whether such a girl has a personal N Count of 3 or 20 really move the overall needle much with respect to the things that those who care about N Count think N count affects? Comparison reduction? Hedonic adaption? Exhausted sexuality?

Perhaps these things all work together, and whatever you believe on N Count, it just does not matter anymore given the overall modern environment. Thoughts?
