[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, of course there are different risks to having sex for the genders. This is not new. Women have been saying "no" to sex for millenia. We still do, but we can make the choice to say "yes" to the partners we would like to have sex with. All of those mate selection ties to attraction still apply. This doesn't have anything to do with the number of partners a woman chooses to have during her lifetime.

How old are you? I find it strange that you can talk about the science of reproduction so candidly without considering the enjoyable parts of sex. [/quote]

The different risks demand different consideration and different decision making around taking on new partners.  We also know that increased numbers of partners increases risks of STDs such as HPV which can lead to infertility.

Every time a female has sex with a new partner, she increases (even if slightly) the probability that she may become infertile.  She also takes a risk becoming impregnated with a substandard mating partner - which would take away her chance to mate with the best DNA she can.  The risks are huge.

Thus, yes - number count is a metric to manage to mitigate these risks in addition to BC, condoms and such.

I am late 30's and love sex.   Not sure why that is relevant to the discussion.

It's relevant because you are hyper-focused on risk and give no consideration to the benefits of a healthy sex life, including, but not limited to healthy attitudes about sex. Sensible precautions eliminate the vast majority of the risks. Keep in mind the statistics include those who do not take any precautions.

There's risk to everything. My risk of injury is much higher because I drive to work everyday in a car. I'm not going to start walking to lower that risk. Sensible precautions eliminate the vast majority of that risk. [/quote]
