'Correct' number of partners ?

[edwardm]

I know there's no such thing as an 'average' number of partners for women, as everyone is different and is based on lifestyle choices.

But.

What would be considered to be an 'acceptable' (or average) number of partners for a mid thirties woman who's been in both long term relationships and also had one night stands (though not at the same time) ?

She doesn't consider herself to be 'loose' or a slut, just an average woman with an 'acceptable' number of partners based on her lifestyle; which involes university and travelling around the world.

Although she's reticent to say exactly how many 'acceptable' actually is, for fear of being judged by others.

Hard one this and I understand that there's no right or wrong answer, but would be interested in all your views.
