The problem with revealing your number is that it labels you. The upside to having a low number is that there is less chance of a sexually transmitted infection (STI). The downside could mean inexperience or that you’re a bad hookup. With a high number, you could be dating someone who is very good in bed or a potential nymphomaniac.

A recent article from LiveScience.com suggests humans are not meant to be monogamous. Read more
