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 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.
