Would you tell a new partner how many people you’ve slept with?
People who’ve gone through a particularly promiscuous phase before settling down might just want to keep that information to themselves, according to research.
The report found that the most ‘desirable’ number of past sexual partners to have had is no more than 14 for women and no more than 15 for men.
A report by Superdrug’s Online Doctor has found that the most ‘desirable’ number of past sexual partners to have had is more than 14 for women and more than 15 for men
Interestingly, the similarity between the two numbers seems to show a lack of gender double standards and indicates that both men and women aren’t keen on their lover having had a large number of sexual partners
Although it’s 2016 and some may feel that this view is outdated, it turns out that your sexual history can affect the way someone might feel about you.

Interestingly, the similarity between the two numbers seems to show a lack of gender double standards and indicates that both men and women aren’t keen on their lover having too many notches on their bed post.
The number of sexual partners that men thought was ideal is 7.5.
It was a very similar number to the one women thought was best, which was 7.6.
While having a conversation abut sexual history can be difficult and uncomfortable, it’s an important thing to accomplish
Just be careful that you have enough experience. The survey shows that women who have had only 1.9 sexual partners, and men who’ve had just 2.3, shows that a person is too sexually conservative
Yet, having too few sexual partners is also a turn-off.
The Superdrug Online Doctor survey shows that people think that women who have had only 1.9 sexual partners, and men who’ve had just 2.3 are too sexually conservative.
And if you’re tempted to stretch the truth a little, you’re in good company.
Some 8.2 per cent of women have said that they’ve had sex with more people than they actually have – and 17.5 per cent of men have.
Those who try and be coy about their sexual past are even larger.
Of women, 18.6 per cent have decreased the number of people they’ve slept with, and 13.7 per cent of men have done the same.
