Cleopatra slept with the most powerful men (and women?) of her time, her lovers reputedly numbering in the thousands. Actor Warren Beatty reportedly had sex with 12,775 women. Basketball player Wilt Chamberlain boasted of sleeping with 20,000 women.
Herewith, I am modestly putting comic #750 to bed.
[Warren Beatty was] dating Maya Plisetskaya, the Bolshoi Ballet’s prima ballerina who, inconveniently, was already married and didn’t speak a word of English. Beatty told his pal Dick Sylbert that it was the most wonderful relationship: “She never understood a thing I said, I never understood a thing she said.”
Quotation from Patrick Goldstein, Peter Biskind on Warren Beatty: Was his theme song ‘You’re So Vain’ or ‘Just a Gigolo’? (LA Times)
Of the 18 married women who came to America on the Mayflower, only 5 survived the first winter. This created a ratio of 10 men to each women. Adultery was so prevalent among the Puritans at Plymouth that it is impossible to say who the Fathers of our Country really were.
Quotation from Sabrina Aset, The Theology of Sex
I’d settle for one partner… but I’m terribly fussy about which one
i was just thinking recently, regretting all the men i could have slept with but didn’t coz i was too moral or whatever…. now i regret missing out on those memories lol but then again, sometimes the could haves are sweeter to remember than the dids….
You are not putting your comics to bed, just thisnumber right? ’cause stopping this would be worse than sleeping with an entire town…A day without Sera is like a day with stupididity. A stupid day.
Personally I’d go for quality rather than quantity, though they do say variety is the spice of life
PS nice portrait
One can always count on one’s fingers.
Number 750 is excellent as usual.
I think people have a tendency to exaggerate – either deliberately or because they can’t count.
Myself, I estimate I’ve read over 4500 books in my life – not counting trysts with magazines and blogs.
How many partners would it take to fill up an empty heart? Apparently 20,000 is not enough.
…adultery was so prevalent among the Puritans at Plymouth that it is impossible to say who the Fathers of our Country really were.
This really cracked me up Seraphine.
Most of us illustrious humans without fame and wealth. And then there is the age factor. In my twenties, ops, I don’t want to go there in an open forum… now, “tote Hose”, and I glance at Susan’s comment and it makes me smile!
I didn’t finish the damn sentence, did I!
Most of us illustrious humans, without fame and wealth, are ordained to receive what destiny throws into our lap
Can’t stop laughing at Susan’s revelatory comment. Truly, paraphrasing a well known song, fingers are a girl’s best friends.
Honestly, I doubt that it’s true, because teh KGB agents followed her every step, when she was traveling abroad. I know Robert Kennedy was not indifferent to her (strangely enough, they were born on teh same day in teh same year). I would assume that kind of access to the White House the Soviet government wouldn’t mind to have. 
Plisetskaya and Beatty… Hmmm… Who would ever guess she’d fall so low.
Once, Marc Chagall, who always wanted to paint her portrait, leaned that she’s arriving in Paris, right now. He came to the airport straight from his studio, all covered in oil paint and in slippers.
Pierre Cardin was one of her men. And you say Warren Beatty. Phew.
She was still dancing, when she was 80 (she’s 85 now).
I agree with Grouser. Quality over quantity. But I guess you can’t really define quality until you’ve had a few against which you can compare.
I never understood the whole counting thing. Doesn’t that just show how little you care for them?
20,000 women? Man, I can picture him keeping track of the numbers and congratulating himself on the 20,000th. I’m too lazy to do the maths, but that’s like 1 a day at least, right?
I had no idea men had so much er… energy.
Congrats on your numbers though!
Sera, you have the most beautiful eyes….Now onto the subject at hand… Do women count like that? I would guess not because we as women are so emotional and hoped that each man we slept with would be “the one” where as men are physical and animalistic in “hunting”…It’s a challenge.. And then they get to a point where their wang wangs refuse to dance anymore, and have to pump a peter, or take the matrix pills in order to feel like neo… And we women- start our phases of where we actually probably could start counting….
But who am I to talk….I know nada ese’…………*smiles
oh dear Sarah, he’s just like that, he’s ETHEREAL looking like an angel, i was hoping he would look at me coz his eyes are black as midnight, black as pitch
they glow, so does his skin, tho i don’t remember if i made it glow more….
oh btw Sera, i’m redirecting my blog, so if you so desire to leave me another cool comment, wait until the blog looks different AND your first comment is there…. coz i don’t want to miss a thing
Staggering stats. I’d read that Cleopatra was a rounder:-) I like your self-portrait.
What an atmosphere!
The donkey doesn’t sex competitions! He prefers love! With a big L!
But it’s not always easy to be a virtuous donkey… In fact I think that my next door neighbour’s name is Cleopatra!
BiZZZZZZZZZZZZ
We French are probably the Puritans because it is difficult to talk about our conquests …
Some do but I do not think it used to much. Yesterday a politician has seen fit to say he had two sex symbols in his bed, he has more votes?
By reading everything that is said I see a great need to exist and a finding happiness!
Whatever the quantity, only quality counts ! i always listen that french do it better
we are the kings of sexual things (and about modesty too 
))
Bisous
Ha ha ha…Great post Sera…I’m sure you’ll hit 20,000 too!! Love the superb picture:))
Life is not about keeping score.
For those who count that high, it makes you wonder if they feel complete inside…or are wandering aimlessly through the wilderness? I’ll stick to my fingers.
Very cool!Love the variety the colors are fabulous.
very interesting stats !
Hundreds and hundreds of lovers .. How stupid … It’s stupid too to be with one and only one in your entire life . … They also do not know what they were missing !!!
~` love the peeping through:)
and the one!! that ya didnt with !! *
20 000 …. only ?
Bien à toi !
Sera: Interesting because I heard Beatty state in an acceptance speech with contrition that the number of women he is said to have been involved with was exaggerated. Who knows? But your site rocks!
Quality over Quantity!!
Often donkeys are seen as stupid animals….
You rock, girl!!!! And I regret the fact I never did my counting.
Someone up there, in your comments, talked about going for quality rather than quantity. I’d say 750 is a quality work anyway.
Okay.. I need to shut up now. Somehow and by looking at all those comment I am feeling I have jumped in a women’s party by accident. Go to run out. Where is the door? Damn!!
It’s not stupid, but after a while, maybe it isn’t so much fun?
You know Perpignan? Toulouse?
I’m from Narbonne and actually in Monpellier south of France!
Have a nice week end
Is that you ? You’re so cute ! Nice to meet you and bravo for you 750 “shots”, oh you girl
))))
I guess if there were only 5 women left – it would be a good time to be a woman!!
Very interesting quotes and facts in this one! Have a great weekend!
your work rocks :p you’re always so original
self portrait??
I don’t usually read celeb bios…well, I did read Goldie Hawn’s ’cause I’ve always thought she was cool…but I’m really thinking about making the investment on Beatty’s. Talk about salacious. …and he did produce and star in one of my all time faves, Heaven Can Wait. Dyan Cannon was priceless in that movie. …I wonder if she and Warren…hmmmm…
but none of your 750 were quickies! ;0)
yeaah. great blog that you have.
Yay #750. You so utterly rawk.
And relatedly, I also want a red licorice whip…
Those figures are surely either gross and rather pathetic exaggerations, or a symptom of some rahter drastic sickness. Beatty is now 72 yrs old, let’s say he started when he was 12, that gives him an average of 213 different women every year. Four different women every week for sixty years without pause. Do you really believe that?
Same story with the convicts who were sent to Australia in the 1700s. The male convicts had to line up behind the soldier guards to select partners in life, as they were on the ‘right’ side of the river. Tough gals.
