Interesting question, Lubey. I always asked the men I dated how many women they slept with... Not that I really cared about the number but rather their reaction to the question. I preferred the men that didn't get all defensive about it and answered frankly. And then calmly turned the question to me, in which I always answered honestly.
Now to address the intent of your question, I don't really think the "experience" of a woman should be judged on the number of her partners. My reason for this is because, as you know, women operate very differently than men. On the whole, and I know you can't generalize to ALL women, but women tend to lose their inhibitions and are less conservative when they trust a man. So a woman may have had only one sexual partner her whole life but may be very adventuresome in the bedroom because she utterly trusts her partner and feels comfortable with him. I have had conversations with girlfriends who have had a plethora of partners but amazingly, their sex seems very "vanilla". They never get to that point in the relationship where they feel like they can be totally vulnerable. Married girlfriends seem to be more willing to try exciting things to keep it going. I think it can range all over the place. I think talented sexual skills is not a factor of the number of partners but rather the depth of trust in the relationship and the willingness of the person to truly get to know the wants and desires of their partner.
