I agree and just to clarify, I am a women with a varied sexual past. A rolodex of one night stands, FWB and the like. However, I have never cheated on anyone I have ever dated and I have never even contacted someone I had a sexual encounter with while I was in a relationship.
However, there is still a sigma attached that I will somehow be incapable of settling down and unable to be content with one sexual partner for an extended period of time (by some men). It's an unfortunate double standard and I try to be as open as possible about my past, when asked, but apparently its okay and can be easily overlooked for guys, but takes a "secure" man to know this information and be comfortable with it.
i applaud you for not being 'ashamed' to admit you've shared yourself amongst men in the past, and for never cheating as you claim in your post.
Simple question. Women who are very faithful when they are in a relationship, however, when they are single-all bets are off. Do men view women with many sexual partners as untrustworthy? Obviously this SHOULD be a case by case scenario...but I have a feeling it's not.
Opinions?
Why would one ask this question about just *women*? Double standard much?

When a woman isn't in a relationship, who does she have to be faithful to?

I believe that women who've had fewer sex partners will be more likely to bond to one man , emotionally speaking, and that this is beyond her control. I'm not going to say it makes her untrustworthy, but it definitely lowers her value as a monogamous partner, in my eyes.

Depends.
[many sexual partners in an non-committed environment is not the definition of untrustworthy]

I have to really disagree with this, based on my own wife. She has had her share in her past, but she is certainly very loving, faithful, and settled in her life now.
I imagine women, like men, would tend to have a number of partners in their younger years (teens, to early twenties), and that doing so does not impair their ability to have long, lasting, committed relationships or remain loving and faithful either.

People with very liberal attitudes to sex, I've found, tend to have sex more for pleasure rather than love although that's a generalisation. So maybe there is more of a chance of them cheating, but honesty is more a character trait than anything else.

LOL way to use your wife as cannon fodder for your argument.

Uh huh.
So it doesn't bother you that your wife has been around?
