Us mongers are especially screwed right?

But not so fast, there is an article that breaks down the flaws in those sensationalized reports:

10 sexual partners is high?  I used to do more than twice each visit.

"Women and men with higher numbers of partners tended to be younger, unmarried and more likely to smoke and drink alcohol frequently. They were also more likely to do some kind of vigorous exercise weekly and to be on either the high or low end of the wealth spectrum, the researchers note."

Also consider that the two leading causes of death are cardiovascular disease (#1) and cancer (#2)...

I have done countless girls in my life, drink too much occasionally, eat tons of red meat and work 80hrs a week between my main job and the 3 companies I have equity positions in...

It‘s a freaking miracle that I am still alive [emoji2]

I just take a wild guess that men accept this risk with smile on their face.

Bollocks. If this was true I would have been dead 30 years ago.
