I'm a quality over quantity girl myself.
I also believe in the 're-use and re-cycle' policy with exes... (hey that would be a good Earth Day story idea!)..haha
fresh new faces (connected to aroused sex organs) mattered more in college
now I agree with doll and practice re-use; as familiarity is relaxing.
the total #?
a lady never tells!
The amount don't count....
You're only a whore if you sleep with someone while harbouring dark, nasty feelings in your heart... (And I don't mean the good kind of dark 'n nasty!!!) Whore's don't care and that's the difference between them and other lovers...
I'm a lot older than you, I'm guessing and I've slept with a number of people.
Only twice have I ever behaved like a whore (with two different people) and I remember both awful incidents vividly and they shame me still... Both incidents had consequences and I ended up hurting people and feeling like shit because of this... And I ended up very hurt. I've learned enough never to that again.
What others think of you is unimportant once you are true to yourself and the values that you hold. And if you ever do behave like a whore, you'll know it.

Lois Lane said it all. I certainly qualify by your family standard. But why would they care how many people you or I have been with?. If you are a loving and caring person, it does not seem to me to make any difference, if you have had 10 or 50 or even more sexual partners.
