I do think these numbers are wrong..but do keep in mind there are a lot more ladies on Earth than men...
Wrong.

Well, you have conservative countries like India or China - i.e. 35% of the world between them - where arranged marriage was still the norm till few years ago and most people have only slept with their spouse.
I guess men tend to exaggerate their number, meanwhile women try to minimalize it?
Thats certainly not true of most China anymore.
The numbers lie!!
One survey, recently reported by the federal government, concluded that men had a median of seven female sex partners. Women had a median of four male sex partners. Another study, by British researchers, stated that men had 12.7 heterosexual partners in their lifetimes and women had 6.5.
But there is just one problem, mathematicians say. It is logically impossible for heterosexual men to have more partners on average than heterosexual women. Those survey results cannot be correct.
The Myth, the Math, the Sex

It is not unusual in the Western world to find women with 6 children who were each fathered by a different man. Do you think this trend will follow soon in China as well?
No, and for a very simple reason..... $$$$$
1.There are no child support laws here
2. education is very expensive
3. healthcare is very expensive
...
Wheareas women get a lot more opportunities, even if they are "fugly" or "average" in the looks department...

Yes and thats another problem, isnt it? It can depend critically on how you ask the question. The number of guys I have slept with is way way below the number I had sex with. Sleep?With that said, I have NO idea how many people I have slept with in my entire life.
Depends what you are trying to measure. You might discount outliers if you are trying to get a figure for the typical individual, but if your interest is something like disease control, then these people with high totals are ones you are most concerned with. The exact numbers are almost certainly not reliable but the order of magnitude likely are. I couldnt tell you how many Ive had sex with, I couldnt even make a real estimate. I do know that if I made an estimate based on average partners now it would be lower than when I made such an estimate years ago, but I have no record even of average number each year to try to make an exact total.Personally, I would have thrown out the 300+ and 400 as not being reliable. Just those 8 men would have added over two to each man, assuming an equal number of men and women.
Thats not exactly true. We know there is a discrepancy in the results and we know the size of it. We can therefore say the true number is likely somewhere between the female result and the male result. I have a strange outlook on this perhaps. Someone with a lifetime count of 2 might think 10 a lot and 20 huge. From my perspective all these numbers are tiny.Okay, so the median is 3 to 8. The average is 6 to 20. The medians can vary, but the averages can't (at least not by anywhere near that much.) Therefore we know the data are bad. Therefore, any median taken from those data cannot be reliable. You can't extract reliable results from unreliable data, no matter how much you massage and interpret it. GIGO.
exactly. SO if in an interview someone asked if you were straight or gay, (not assuming anything) you might say straight if you mainly are. Then the next question is how many partners, and you answer 50, being 7 regular women and 43 one night stands with men. But now on the questionnaire this has become 50 female partners because they didnt ask precise enough questions.7 women and we will not got into the male number.
I know some women. Who more or less have slept with 30+. So I call bullshit.
Yep. Also, go back to the numbers: 3 vs 8. You realise that if we assume the average woman sleeps with almost no prostitutes, the average man would have to sleep with 5 prostitutes for every 3 non-pros he's with?
If not every man regularly sleeps with prostitutes (I certainly don't, and from the responses even most of the sex-driven guys on this board don't), that goes up to an insane amount. If we count 9 guys all sleeping with 3 girls each, the 10th would have to sleep with 50 different pros to get that number. If that's true, maybe the prostitutes need to offer a loyalty rewards program.
