On the flimsy pretext of this being the season when HS seniors get their college acceptances, a New York Times column has set about asking current college students about their plans for future sexual conquests.

Stephen Dubner handed his 'Freakonomics' column over to his assistant, Nicole Tourtelot, this week. She asked five collegians five questions. Three of them were innocuous: who's paying for your education, how do you view cigarette smoking, what's your dream job?

But then came:

* How many more people do you think you’ll sleep with before you get married? * How many would you like to?

I bet the author of the column is a college graduate. Can they not come up with anything better?

Yep, another overschooled, undereducated bum at the NYT.

Sounds like they are recruiting for the Emperor’s Club replacement.

There’s a need to be filled by the recent closing of said business..

Answering requires numbers and there is “like, way too many numbers to count”.

At the same time or over a life time?

I guess that depends on how many of them snore. ;)

Wellllll, let’s see, without a proper photo of this Nicole Tourtelot we can’t judge whether she is guilty or NOT guilty!

How would you know until it’s too late? Not exactly the kind of thing you can ask a girl in a bar ;-)

What were their choices? I wonder if none was an option. I figure most guys will dream but will the female results be used to meet an agenda?
