May 21 1,014 men and women share how many sexual partners they've had

I wanted the poll to be nonjudgemental/ inclusive enough for people to feel comfortable honestly sharing this intimate information about themselves. By providing larger ranges for men and women, I believed this would give us enough data to generate a general answer for this “don’t ask, don’t tell” topic.

Let’s dive in.
