An expert opinion on body counts
According to Tracey Cox, a popular English author and columnist who specializes on dating, sex and relationships:
“People will judge you no matter what answer you give when asked about past lovers and the assumption they make is usually wrong.”
“Which is why I don't care who's doing the asking – whether it's your partner, mother, best friend or beauty therapist - your answer to how many lovers you've had is no answer.”
