I was forty-five years old when I achieved a lifetime total of one hundred sex partners. I don't keep a precise count -- but I've picked one as a symbol of achievement -- a Bronze Medal for sluthood. I may never win silver or gold, as I got off to a slow start.
One problem in toting up partners is defining "sex." Does it have to be vaginal intercourse? What about oral sex? Yes, oral sex counts. Masturbation? Only if it goes both ways. Thus, my count doesn't include a few men I jacked off. But mutual masturbation qualifies as sex. And so does the exertions of a few men who tried and failed to accomplish linkage with me not through lack of intention but lack of woodiness. Any attempted penetration, I decided, whether successful or not, qualified as sex.
I only counted one woman among my sex partners although a few other working women in Thailand had brought me to climax with tongue and mouth.
So I came up with 100 sex partners, and while my hundredth was unremarkable in most respects, he was the only United States Senator I have ever fucked.
I was living in Bangkok, Thailand. I'm a divorced woman who worked in American Embassies around the world. In that isolated and insular world long term relationships were hard to come by. The US government frowns on its confidential employees cohabiting with the locals and with each other, so my sex partners were mostly tourists and visitors to the Embassy, along with a sizeable number of young marines and peace corps volunteers.
My Senator was on an official trip to Thailand, and I was assigned as his "control officer" meaning that I arranged meetings, accompanied him, ensured that his visit was useful, and that he was suitably impressed with the efficiency of the Embassy -- so impressed that he would vote in favor of budget increases we were seeking.
I liked Senator Foghorn. He was about the same size as me: 5 feet, eight inches tall and 150 pounds. He had a good sense of humor and we laughed and joked as we went around town meeting with Thai officials. I have an accountant's personality so I'm not exactly scintillating, but I was comfortable with this Senator.
At the end of our work day, when I took him back to his hotel, he suggested dinner. I accepted. I wasn't thinking of sex. He was in his late sixties and he seemed like a little old man and he was married -- although that has never put me off.
We had a lovely dinner and over dessert he suggested that he would like to see something of Bangkok's fabled night life. He was polite and shy -- and so embarrassed at raising the subject -- that the thought of a night in bed with him first crept into my mind. I tossed my head and made my hair fly, crossed my legs, and turned off the professional me to become the personal me -- moderately attractive and sophisticated and quick to go to bed.
I was familiar with Bangkok's night life. It was wide open. Thai girls are dark, slender, willing, and cheap. Sex of any variety was readily attainable at moderate prices. This being 1987, prices were still low. A one hour massage with masturbation as the piece de resistance was ten dollars at the best massage parlors and for a tip of the same you could enjoy more than a massage. Most of the attractions around Bangkok were for men; a round-eye woman like me was a rare sight in a Thai bar, night club, and massage parlor.
