Plus there's this whole discussion of what "counts" as sex. I remember a guy who told me he counts oral sex as a sexual partner(no vaginal) and I also remember a girl who told me any sex outside of a relationship doesn't count lol.
ORAL SEX IS SEX

Except that sex often means sexual intercourse specifically. We've been over this.

Also, I think your caps lock key is broken.

It doesn't really even require "putting your mind to it" for most people to have 4-5 sex partners in a year (which makes 100 in 20-25 years) unless they're really unattractive or something.

I wonder how a guy would feel if his wife or gf was blowing the next door neighbor... I wonder if that would count as sex in his mind.

Not a statistics major, were you? Something doesn't need to be the majority to be within the range of normal. 20% WELL more than qualifies.

As someone else correctly pointed out, most people don't want their SO to kiss other people, either, but that doesn't mean kissing is sex.

No, I don't know any women would who admit to being with 100 dudes, nor would I want to know a women like that. And I don't think a 100 sex partners is the norm for women or men.

Or in an exclusive relationship. I don't know if 25 years of non-commitment is that common for a woman.

I don't think anyone is saying that it's "the norm" in a statistical sense for the general population. We're just saying that it's also not that outrageous or difficult to do for someone who is sexually active and single for couple of decades. It's not really anything to be either proud or ashamed of.

Of course. But it doesn't take "putting your mind to it" to avoid being in an exclusive relationship in one's teens and twenties, either. Quite the opposite for most.
