Thinker.. I tend to agree with you.. but once again... this is because (in my opinion) society has conditioned us (in general).

If a man were to discover a past lover speaking of him (and their sexual activities) to another woman (especially positively).. it inflates the ego. Even possibly increasing his chances for future activities with the friend (no doubt that many a friend has slept with a guy based solely on what she had heard previously about his abilities and equipment).

On the otherhand, if a woman hears that a man is discussing the very same details with a friend she is most likely going to think that her reputation is going to be negatively effected. Possibly decreasing her chances of dating one of them in the future.

The sad fact of the matter is.. it is true. I think that this goes back to the mindset (which is one that I do have) that it is great to be a "slut" in the bedroom.. but it is entirely a different matter to be considered one outside of it.

Long ago.. LONNNNGGGG ago.. I was very serious with a young man.... needless to say... things didn't work out.. and after the fact.. I had found out via a friend of his... that he had encouraged this friend to hook up with me "cuz she gives great head dude". Yeah.. tho I was pleased to think that the guy thought so... I didn't appreciate hearing it from his friend. That was a piece of information that I didn't (at that time) make a point of advertising.

It is true, I do share details of my intimate life with my girl friends.. mostly because I am the most open minded and sexually aware person in my small group.. I do not however share with them specifics... never have "rated" a lovers ability... I keep things very general...
