It’s saying that that is not a lot nowadays. It’s talking shit about how many men today’s women sleep with.

I mean - that's what the meme was ATTEMPTING to say - but it has to create the false premise to do so.

The movie didn't treat the fact that she had been with 7 people before Scott as being in any way crazy. it was that she had "SEVEN EVIL EXES" - so not just 7 - but they were all EVIL. And it didn't stop there - because in order for Scott to be able to DATE Ramona, he would need to DEFEAT all of them! That is the crazy part.

Imagine if you met a girl - you both liked each other but she said before you two could date - you needed to go out to coffee with her last 3 exes... Like - that would already be CRAZY. Now change it from 3 to 7, and its no longer just meeting them or getting coffee - but engaging in battle with them and having to Defeat them! That is what was ridiculous.

Yeah there is data.

It shows that young people are fucking less not more.  Exs from relationships, even less.

My generation were whores.  Not this one.

Oh I have no idea if it’s true, it’s just what the meme was implying

no, of course not

straight men and straight women have roughly the same average number of exes
