That would mean that he had a new woman every day for 54,74 years! A bit too much to believe. Or was he never sick?

cylon, does that mean other parts of him would count in the tally? fingers, etc.? seems to me that isn't really the same thing.

i admire the man's endurance though.

I don't know, I can just imagine he had an extremely large bed, most likely with a waiting room outside the door.

It's hard to imagine how he tabbed up 20,000, and also, it's even more unbelievable that he stopped at 20,000 exactly, and not 19,432 or some other number like that..

But it was before the aids epidemic, so he probably did reach a high number..

I guess that's the advantage of being 7"1 tall, you'll get a bigger bed that can fit more people in it

What would straight women know about dating other straight women?

It's not that they don't know "what women want" or that they are trying to BS you, they just don't have the experience or skill in that particular social arena.

Don't ask an astronaut how to bullfight.

Well said.

Hardly even considered.

When considered, often hoped to not be true.

i think that a high status in society is dazzling - so DEFINITELY attracting (to wo/men alike)
... BUT ...
is "RAS" attraction not "LoA" attraction
therefore will not last

So, assuming you are a straight guy......are you saying that if a woman came to you and asked you to suggest some things she could do differently so she can have better success dating straight men you'd have no useful advice for her?

As a straight guy, I don't think I could give any gender specific, or dating specific advice. Maybe someone else could.. But I think honest, direct and friendly communication is most effective, IMO.
