It's a matter of scale. You're talking about one club and I'm talking about the defacto standard behavior in the 16-24 year old age group.

The sub-24 year old generation is just horrible with this as I've yet to meet a really attractive women in that age range with less that ~30 partners. I know a lot of women in their mid to late 20s that still go out 4 or more nights a week and hook up with 3 or more guys a week just because they can. Granted these are your club chicks and glamor model wannabe types that get all tarted up on the weekends. Still, they're not the only ones doing this sort of stuff. Not by a long shot in fact.
so you must like this type of girl? How else would you keep meeting them?

My wild phase was going out, partying, smoking, drinking, etc . Good times.

I was never promiscious in this period - not my style.

The "wild phase" is probably the most over rated thing in all of Western Culture. If you never had it...really the only thing you are missing, is embarassment.

I don't know of anything positive that comes out of it. It's just a bunch of actions, that when we have kids, we spend the rest of our lives lying to them, about.

EDIT: I went to Arizona State. I participated in many a party...and what good came out of it besides flunking out of classes and drinking my scholarship away?

You didnt live through the 70s as a teenager, did you?
Because it was a pretty wild time, I was there.
Lots of sex, drugs, and rock and roll.....
Its a lot tamer now.

In a way I agree with you, it can be over rated.

However I don't regret that time of my life. I was young and went out a lot - there wouldn't be much that I couldnt tell them about. Going to night clubs and drinking isn't very shocking.

Maybe that the people I associated with took a lot of drugs, where I didn't....

Damn, I never went through a wild phase. I'm just in a perpetual mildly insane phase.

+1,000,000. It's okay to cut it loose a little bit, but who wants to marry the girl that screwed every guy on the 3rd floor of the dorm and was literally passed around like a bong at a frat house. Hard to believe she's somebody's daughter.
