Still this doesn't answer the basic question here: Why do we lie about the number of the people we slept with? I figured I'd ask some guys too.Antoine is 29 and works as a creative director. I met him at a party, drinking warm rosé in a plastic glass. When he heard I was writing this piece, he got in touch with me. "I will tell you what I think", he declared. He likes it when girls are not "easy at first. I like knowing the girl is giving me something special when she agrees to sleep with me – it gives me more value. If she's slept with the whole of Paris, I feel stupid. Sleeping with her doesn't make me feel good about myself, if she opens her legs in front of anybody. I'm not proud of it but that's how it is."Unfortunately, there are many Antoines. Valentine met one of them, too, via a friend of a friend. She was crushing on him but then one night, over drinks, she started talking about her sex life. He immediately lost interest in her, telling her mate he didn't know "if she's a serious girl or if she just wants to suck dicks at parties." As if it's not possible to be both at the same time.Of course, not all men are like this. And most of them have to deal with their own self-doubt and the social codes dictating their lives. Mathilda has just moved in with her boyfriend. They love each other, but the subject of how many people she's slept with always comes back. "Even guys who tell you they love liberated women at the beginning, will end up reproaching you," she sighs.My boyfriend is certain that my pussy is damaged by the amount of guys I've had sex with.
