Why do humans care how often other people have sex?

Curios. I come across a lot of body count debate online. I can’t help but wonder why others are so invested in a sex life they’re not involved in???

When I was dating, no one ever asked my body count and it never even occurred to me to ask. Is this a new phenomenon? I’ve been in a relationship for 3 years.

I think the people who care either enjoy living vicariously through others, or are either highly judgemental of others and probably have a virgin fetish, or look to other's activities as a benchmark or measuring tool for what they think their life should be like...rather then just seeking out their own happiness.

I have never heard the grizzly term "body count" used in this way.

I can understand how a couple, when they are beginning to get serious with each other, would want to know about each other's relationship history. But as for online conversations, what are people even debating?

@DrWatson the lack of “morals” of having many past sexual partners. Usually how it makes women decline in value but is perfectly fine with men 😅 some people hate it for men too though. I personally don’t care. My bf never asked me and my bf volunteered that info.

I don’t care other than to see how I compare.

People are judgemental.

@FreestyleArt they seem to be upset when anyone has sex

hmm,, body count has been a thing for a whilee now, idk why it matters. it’s a badge of honor for men, but something to be shamed with for women. so it’s a double standard af.

@deathfairy it's hardly a badge of honor for us. Maybe to some immature moron manchild it is, but not grown people.

That's what body count means???

I've been killing people for years to try and keep up. Felt well inadequate
