Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, always kind of uncomfortable conversation that you could have
with your partner is how many people? What's your number?
Do you want to know? You know with Sky, I
mean it's easy, you say two, all.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Right, Well, nobody even believes me.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Well, it sounds so stupid, like if you were a man,
Emily would think you're a loser.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Pussy You know, we're podcasts have to call you pussy boy.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Oh my god, non pussy boy. Yeah, So is this
different between generations? Is like what is there a certain
acceptable number? Well, I guess we're gonna find out. We
ain't done yet. It's time for the one podcast a year,
completely uncensored and uncting filtered except for that part.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
The the show's after show starts.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Now, you know, we've heard Thor rail against the kind
of younger generation. They're just different, and so I don't
feel like sex is as important to the newer generation,
younger generation as it was target.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
It's like they've turned into the boomers, you think. So
it's like gone, like complete flip. And then I want
and then think their kids will be like you know,
gen zers or then millennial, you know what I mean,
Like it's like repeating itself. It's because they're all into
like religious uh scriptures and.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Like not having sex, like drinking.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
They don't like drinking.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
It's like a big issue.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Yesterday, the grandma hobbies. They're all into like knitting and
stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Like that becomes cool. Yeah, it's different, you know, it's
just different. So you know, when you ever talk about,
you know, what's your number, it's never a good conversation
to have and you can always kind of go south
and whatever depending on what your number. And are you
even going to be truthful about it? You know? I
don't know. And so I just feel like though if
(02:02):
it's generational the young, like what's Jamie's number? If we
had to guess, what's Jamie's number, So.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
He's twenty two years old, twenty three, fourteen, yeah, something like.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Whatever. I mean, I would say this girl that he's
with his girlfriend first one.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
I don't know. Jamie kind of surprises me. He gets little.
He's a little pervy sometimes with like the porn like
on his on.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
His like uh most listened to artists of the Year
on Spotify it was Sabrina Carpenter.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
But yeah, yeah, but does that mean he's having sex?
Speaker 2 (02:35):
I feel like he was a horny kid.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
I feel like, I don't you don't know. I don't know.
I feel like I want to say, like, there's zero
game there, so one you're saying one. But he's in
a band kind of he was in band. Oh remember
in high school he got no pussy that he got
no pussy or something not even a cool issue like sorry,
(03:01):
I was going to give them two.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
I was going to say too for.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
James, Yeah, he lost his Virginia and now he.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Has his girlfriend.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, love forever.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Yeah. Yeah, we don't know somebody else. So you know
that generation is just different. The way they look at things,
the way they do things is different. Generation, I don't know,
but you know, generationally it can be different. How they
view your number.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Yeah, and so they asked, you know, thousands of people
and then they put them in categories based on their
age to find out what the number is and does
the number actually matter because it's kind of like two
different questions like, Okay, what would be the ideal number
for your partner? But at the same time, would you
care if the number is higher or lower than that?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Clearly does she if you're low on the low end.
Emily ain't wasting time.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
No, she said before, if you've had sex with less
like three people, she said, you're absolute loser.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
It's weird, like judging me thirties.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Let's say I just think that that. I just think
that's odd, just because the people that I grew up
with and all the guys I've ever been friends with
are not like that.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
I shal, yeah, it's true, But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Just to me, I look at dealers as kind of like,
what have you been doing this whole time?
Speaker 1 (04:21):
If you were in a relationship for like eight years?
What if they love love that young?
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Too? If I were in our thirties and you were
in I mean Scott when she was twenty.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Piece of ship, piece of ship, Piece of ship.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Yeah, and you get and you're not and you're weird.
But but she's also she's kind of sexist because she
feels about that way about men. She's not necessarily saying
that about women. Is it different women? I I don't
really have feelings. You have like two at a time.
So I mean it's like, you know.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
My number is not as high as you guys.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Yeah, it's not.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
I just hate how women get judged because for men,
I think that they but you're doing judging on men.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
You're judging, you're so hypocritical.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
You're right, you're just judging in the opposite way, the
opposite way.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I guess, I guess what you're saying. I'm sorry standing
up for men, man, really standing up for non sexual men.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Yea, all the asexual men out there, We're sorry, Sorry
about sorry.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I feel like it's the worst label to be called
a whore than just an odd dude.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
What on the other side of you, guys, I totally disagree.
I totally disagree. But if you called me a loser
and weird because I haven't had sex.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
That much, I would feel I would ever say, that's
your face.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
I wouldn't your face.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
I think the devil standard is easy. It's easier for
chicks to get laid than guys. A girl get laid.
Any girl can get laid anytime she wants in America.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Any guy can't stand by that.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
I stand by that any girl one. I don't give
a fuck if they're a negative zero. If they walk
into a bar on a Friday and they want to
get laid, they'll get late. Because guys fuck anything. Speaking
from experienced running my twenties run in my twenties.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I can't disagree with it.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
There, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Try try being a twenty two year old who's sober.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Trying to without dating apps. Yeah, okay, was I a
loser of weirdo?
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Get after it different in different ways? Okay.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
While in the study and they asked different age groups
what is the ideal partner number and also do you care? Well, first,
let's let's go oldest to youngest. So sixty five and
up is interesting because they have one of the lowest numbers.
They say, three to five sexual partners is ideal.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
But they are Yeah, yeah, they're weirdo.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
But at the same time, this old group of sixty
five and up, they're the group that cares the least,
Like ideally three to five, but if you got a yeah,
but if you got thirty forty fifty, they don't fucking care.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
You know what I know.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Most of the guys in Prostates andre okay, weird.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Age fifty five to sixty four. Now, this is the
group with the highest number.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
They say an average of five to ten is a
number they would want to hear.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That's okay, gross, It's doable. Is it.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Actually, but to fifteen percent of this group, that number
does matter, and if you are over that number, those people.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Are going to be judging and they're not going to
like that.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Thirty five to forty four years old they're preferred.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
So I don't matter. Yeah we did fifty five five before.
What happened there?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Oh yeah, it jumped.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Count your stat's still count.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
You ever had sex?
Speaker 5 (08:04):
Yeah, thirty five to forty four they say they prefer
their partner to answer somewhere between three and ten, so
they have the biggest range on what they fall in
and kind of don't really care.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
This should be more gender specific.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Yeah, absolutely, Oh well, I mean yeah, between men and women.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
That's the answers are going to be so different.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
Yeah, ages twenty five to thirty four they say three
to five as well, but again they're not really caring.
They're not gonna call you a whore or a weirdo
loser if you fall outside of that range.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
And the most judge.
Speaker 5 (08:44):
Group who cares most are the youngest ones eighteen to
twenty four.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
They want a body count of just about three people, sorry, Jamie,
and
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Over forty percent of them say that number matters so
much that it could be a deal breaker if you
Well, always kind of uncomfortable conversation that you could have
with your partner is how many people? What's your number?
Do you want to know? You know with Sky, I
mean it's easy, you say two, all.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
