Because you can't? No, because it would be tiring and pointless, and I'm never going to convince you that you're wrong anyway. The two words are practically synonyms. One gains skill through experience. Again, go try and get a job and use that line. Quality of experience matters a lot more than quantity. Having had sex with 10 or more different people does not make a person good in bed. In fact, it probably means that he or she sucks for two reasons. 1. People who can get meet their sexual goals easily have no incentive to learn how to do anything right. 2. If he were talented at all, he'd probably be able to find something more fulfilling, which would mean more long-term relationships and less time to rack up a number.

You definitely could convince me, if there was any substance to what you said. I'm highly rational and you can find numerous examples of me swallowing my pride and conceding a point. You offer nothing, though, except mere opinions. Since it's you who seeks to impose guidelines on others' behaviour, the onus is upon you to justify your claims. Quality of experience matters a lot more than quantity. Do you ever get the feeling that a lot of your beliefs seem to be suspiciously self-serving? Having had sex with 10 or more different people does not make a person good in bed. All other things being equal, having had sex with 10 people is objectively better than having had sex with 1 person. I don't even know why I have to point such an obvious, indisputable fact. I mean - it's just laughable. You might as well tell me that having 10 times the programming experience does not make you a better programmer. Well, I guess occasionally it doesn't but .. 99 times out of 100 it sure as fuck does, actually. In fact, it probably means that he or she sucks for two reasons. Oh man, here we go .. 1. People who can get meet their sexual goals easily have no incentive to learn how to do anything right. You know, this is utterly laughable and I am beginning to suspect you have no sexual experience whatsoever. Firstly, they would learn through pure trial and error. Secondly, of course they want to give a good "performance", for reasons of simple pride. You have no idea what you are talking about. 2. If he were talented at all, he'd probably be able to find something more fulfilling, which would mean more long-term relationships and less time to rack up a number. Again you wrongly assume that everyone else shares your priorities. I know many people for whom variety and meeting new people is more "fulfilling" than the drudgery and same-same of a long term relationship. Racking up a number has nothing to do with it. You just don't understand. Your beliefs are nothing but a self-constructed delusion to explain away your lack of poon. You can't get it, so you convince yourself you don't want it, so you can maintain your self-esteem. Now I understand this post you've started is nothing but a new angle on the same thing - now you're trying to construct a new excuse for yourself, that you don't want girls because you're working on your startup, and that's why, not because you couldn't get any! Utterly pathetic.

  I'm glad to see that you've resorted to personal attacks. Perhaps it's because you secretly know that you're doing something wrong, and I'm striking a nerve. If it matters, I actually have had a fairly satisfying love life. However, I've never saw fit to fill my single spells with the heartless and self-serving debasement of women. Not that my personal life is any of your business, but I thought you should know. Your behavior (if it's anything like what you espouse online) is digging you into a deep hole. Enjoy being unable to find a worthwhile partner for the long term, and dying alone.

    I've never saw fit to fill my single spells with the heartless and self-serving debasement of women. Groan. Your stupid off-topic comments about this are really messing up my /newcomments page. Has anyone made a HN killfile greasemonkey type thing for kooks like you? I do have one bit of advice... You could drive your camaro from Long Island down to Alabama, and hang out in the parking lot of the high schools where they are having a "purity ball." There you may find the women you have been dreaming of.

      It wasn't my intention for this topic to spread from the original topic to this. I'm surprised that there is such hatred for a not-out-of-the-ordinary viewpoint.

        It wasn't my intention for this topic to spread from the original topic to this. bullshit. this is exactly what you wanted to happen. a soapbox for your insecurity. I'm surprised that there is such hatred for a not-out-of-the-ordinary viewpoint. rather than hatred for your viewpoint, maybe people think you suck because you're making posts about penis size on "hacker news."
