Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
Yes, yet another take from me, on a topic I did not think would need one. Unfortunately part 1 was written to be a little self effacing, a little gentle... a little "spoonful of sugar" to help the points get across. Aaannd more than a few women have taken the humor to be the article. Hence, a part two that is entirely factual and pulls no punches. Sensitive men and women who are easily outraged at men questioning their lifestyles should click back right away. You were warned!
This take is about the blunt, simple truth--even with pregnancy put aside, sex biologically impacts women more than men. It is a part of why women on average put less importance a man's count than women--and mosty women who bring up promiscious men usually only do it lamenting that if a woman sleeps around she becomes less desirable, not because women want men to marry as virgins or with n3 partner counts.
(and no, I am not writing a take on how women should not date promiscious men. I already just wrote a take on how Players and MTGOW men are part of the problem and no one bothered reading it. https://www.girlsaskguys.com/dating/a25285-the-simple-truth-players-mtgow-are-part-of-the-problem-not-the "

1. Sex is different for men, than for women. Aside from Michael Douglas demonstrating that either sex can get horrible diseases from too much promiscuity, sex still impacts men very different from women. Mainly because straight men do not have another person's DNA and hormones literally injected inside them.
Once thought to be just a fluid for sperm, semen has over 50 compounds, and multiple hormones with different effects. Attention, Ladies: Semen Is An Antidepressant Even Ronda Rousey alluded to this in an interview to Conan when she remarked that sex right before a fight elevates a woman's testosterone levels.
On a more strange, or freakish, or cool level (depending on you) semen is now believed to impact a woman's behavior and genetics.

If you want more views on it, google it. I'm not going to spam the readers with 50 links. Try looking up Male Microchimerisn in women without sons while you're at it.
The past is the past? Yeah, nope. Promiscious women might wish it away, but they are literally changed by their actions. Your emotions might be burning with indignation, but... science is science.
2. Alpha Fucks, Beta Bucks.
As alluded too in many shows in different fashions, such as extreme in Big Bang Theory (Penny sleeping around with idiot bodybuilders before settling down with nerdy Leonard, lucky partner 32# or higher, judging by Sheldon's calculations.)
Or if you saw Inside Out, and the mom lamenting she had not settled for the boring businessman husband and fantasizing about the past Brazilian boyfriend. It's so common it's a cliche. A cliche no man wants to be on the wrong end of--and we realize that if we are partner 15 for a girl, it's more likely we're the dud, which is a bad sign. Both because it speaks ill of us, and it suggests it is more likely her attraction is a security "omg i'm x years old and not married and I still want to have a baby someday" attraction and not a "that guy's cute and I want to have hot sex with him" attraction. If a guy is dating a girl and finds out he is partner 4 instead of 14, he knows the odds are better she is not dating him as a boring settle plan.
Simple fact is that for many women, casual sex partners who women have sex with out of desire are more likely to be Christian Grey type, the sort of "bad guys" who are possibly violent, controlling, etc. Why do you think a novel about a damaged, violent, threatening stalker who treats women like fuck toys is now nearly the best selling book in human history thanks to women?
And as Penny demonstrated, the men women want to "settle" with are often the less attractive, more reliable, less arousing men that women date for their "beta" characteristics of being more dependable/loyal/supportive.
Akin to "well, she's not that hot, but she's funny..." Or as we put it, "Haha wow, she's really dating down now."
Don't you judge me, you've seen plenty of said couples where you know the girl could do WAY better and is dating down because she wants security. This is kind of sad, both because the poor sap will probably get divorced, the hot girl will be miserable as she thinks of the hot guys she used to have sex with, and somewhere there's a guy way cuter who she would have had way more attractive offspring with.
3. Divorce Risk. As previously stated, women who married with a higher partner count are a higher risk of divorce. https://socialpathology.blogspot.com/2010/09/sexual-partner-divorce-risk.html
I do concede "divorce risk" and "she is an utter bitch risk" are not the same. I've met slutty girls who were *really* sweet and likable, or at least to me. And I have met virgin girls and women who married as virgins who seemd like total bitches.
"Alpha widows" are a real thing in dating though, as many have found out. Simple example, I knew a gorgeous, sweet, funny classmate... dated a trashy thug, and suprise! got burned. She literally remained single for four years. I know because it was shocking when I eventually saw a picture of her posing with a guy.
So, in all, yes. A woman's partner count does impact literally who she is, even on a genetic level. It's not just some thing in the past.
Well, unless you hate science.
