I think that body count has some predictive value, but it's not reliable and ultimatively what really matters is the individual case.
Also, there's the matter of honesty and lying. A lot of girls, in my opinion the majority, lie about their body count, only telling about their longterm partners, omitting all one night stands and short relationships. Not to mention omitting things like threesomes.

And very often the supposed "low body count" girl is a liar.
I know a case of a girl who is a friend of my girlfriend - so I know her story from her female friend circle's point of view. She enjoyed going to clubs and having one night stands with new guys. She enjoyed the sex, the attention and testing how good a guy would fuck her. She would sometimes fuck 1 new guy every weekend, sometimes 2 guys a week. Which over the course of months and years would lead to enourmous body count of hundreds. In her friend circle, she had the reputation of being a nymphomaniac. But otherwise she didn't cause any trouble, was a nice person and was liked by people. (Although my GF says she has always felt that girl was sly and unthrustrorthy). She's attractive - 7/10 face and even better body, and is perceived as nice and feminine, but I agree with my GF - there's something untrustworhy about her if one has a good eye.
One day the "nympho" girl met a guy - handsome, rich and naive when it comes to women. She told him she's a conservative girl with only a few boyfriends. And that she doesn't like to drink or party.

She basically did a "perfect wife" act and he bought it. Now they're married with kids. He - as far as I know - thinks he got a perfect woman, a paragon of feminine virtues, an exceptional jewel, etc etc.
I don't know if she's cheating on him or not - because the friend circles of her and my GF drifted apart. But I know the guy believes he married a conservative, high morals, low body count woman. And he's very pleased with her as a wife.
The point I want to make here is that if somebody would not know the "inside story" of that situation, he would probably think she's a perfect example of a "high quality", conservative girl with low body count. And that she's a great wife BECAUSE of that - while in reality, she's a good wife DESPITE being a serial slut in the past.
As for the whole thread, I agree with
@Chase:
ARE HIGH BODY COUNT OR LOW BODY COUNT WOMEN CRAZIER?
Here are some important points IMO:
- Some women with high body counts are disordered.
- Not all women with high body counts are disordered.
- Some women with low body counts are disordered.
- Not all women with high body counts are disordered.
Yes - both high body count and low body count women can be healthy or disturbed.
I do think high body count women are disturbed more often, but it's nothing definite.
Example of a high body count woman who is disordered:
A girl with
borderline personality disorder who jumps from man to man to man. She can’t hold down a job and her friendships and relationships are like revolving doors laced with TNT.
Or the less crazy, but way more common example: a "standard" disturbed girl from a dysfunctional family. Often having an alcoholic or otherwise toxic father, she's emotionally unstable and is subconsciously recreating the pathological dynamics of her childhood home. Often likes to party and drink a lot, sometimes is alcoholic.
Example of a high body count woman who is not disordered:
A high-testosterone girl who is naturally high in sensation seeking. She holds down a stable job and has healthy friendships; however, she simply just LOVES cock!
I LOVE this kind of women. I value them over low body count "good girls".
Example of a low body count woman who is disordered:
Anal-retentive paranoid girl who finds sex icky and fears the feeling of losing control she has around sex. To her, sex is something to be avoided as much as possible, and rigidly controlled when not able to be avoided.
Oh yes. Often from a highly controlling, emotionally abusive or cold family. Sometimes with very religious parents. She's rigid and simply NOT FUN. She's programmed to make life strict, rigid, dull, even difficult, not to have fun and live with pleasure.
From what I can see here the debate has somewhat devolved into this:
LOW COUNT GUYS: "If she's high count, she's too risky, thus automatically ruled out."
HIGH COUNT GUYS: "It's silly to weigh count at all, because count is not the only factor."
I've noticed that a lot in life.
Low count guys are afraid of high body count women. And I think they're actually right about this. A "bad girl" will sooner or later notice, feel the low count guy's inexperience and will most likely not respect him.
High count guys can connect with "bad girls" way better and they can be respected by them.
So in a way, both groups are correct - from their individual, practical point of view.
Low count guys are correct to avoid high count women they probably can't handle them (especially long-term).
High count guys are correct to not be overly afraid of high count women, because in a lot of cases, they can handle them. (And because they can often obtain a higher level of satisfaction from them than they can get from low count women.)
