Bodycount — the most insufferable yet prickly topic of all online ‘gender discourse.’ And understandably so. It’s the least cut and dry topic because we’re trying to morally evaluate someone’s past solely from a numerical value. But one’s sexual history is worthy of discussion given how sexual norms in the west have changed so drastically. The frequency and intensity of the debate may be annoying, but it’s inevitable, and it’s worth a fair deconstruction.
Like with all topics on the internet, there are very extreme takes on both sides that can be easily discarded. Some men believe if a girl sleeps with one (1) man she isn’t married to then she’s an irredeemable whore. Then there’s girls who believe sleeping with an infinite number of men is completely fine (“it’s sex work!”) and you gotta just man up, chud. Both of these opinions are too stupid to be worthy of consideration. Off to the dustbin of retarded internet takes they go. Therefore, the more reasonable position must be somewhere in the middle.
By the way — since when does basic arithmetic inspire so much passion in people? Are we really getting riled up about numbers? Given that sex is by far the most vulnerable and inherently personal topic there is, we should get to the root of what we’re really talking about here.
Before we get started, let’s make sure that you and I are both on the same page about what we’re talking about. This is my understanding of the “bodycount” discussion:
A girl is born with 100% purity.
When she loses her virginity, her purity is no longer 100%.
Her purity decreases with every man she sleeps with.
The opposite of purity is corruption.
Men prefer a girl who is more pure than corrupted.
Therefore, if a girl wants to be attractive to men, she should should strive to be more pure and less corrupted.
I’m on board with that. This is reasonable.
This begs the question — how much does her purity decrease with each new man she sleeps with exactly? This number matters, doesn’t it? If her purity decreases by 50% with each new man, then if she slept with 2 men — she has no purity left. She’s for the streets. If it decreases by 5%, then she can sleep with 19 men before you and still retain 5% of her purity. Is a 5% purity level acceptable before dating?
I know this may sound autistic — but if this number doesn’t matter, then the bodycount topic should be discarded for good.
