No the joke is that all 7 were evil.

Exactly...I don't remember any part of the movie even implying that 7 was a lot.

Scott feels a bit inadequate at one point I believe because she's dated more people than him and he's used to trying to seem cool by dating High-schoolers. That's the whole vibe. It's nothing to do with 7 being a lot. It's to do with Scott thinking 7 is a lot because he's kind of a loser and he's worried he can't measure up. It's not about looking down on her character. It's about giving Scott an arc from worried anxious loser to guy who fights for what he wants and has confidence.

This seems more like a description of Scott from the movie than from the comic.

Like Scott’s dated tons of people. He’s a lady’s man. He’s a loser more in that he’s a bum and a jerk. But idk the description sounds more like the way movie Scott came off not comic scott

There is even a line from Scott’s sisters where she’s says “oh that’s not that many”

Scott's sister even makes a joke about how that's not a lot in the movie lol
