I hope you aren't apologising on my behalf.
Use the term if you want to.
I was grossed out by it but that's my opinion.
Even without the term, I think it's weird to tell people your number of partners.
Some people have numbers forced upon them by assault.
Other people have no numbers and it makes them feel awkward in conversation.
Women have been judged by the Angel / Whore paradigm long enough.
Likewise, men seem to think "numbers" make them better partners or better men.
This ^ promotes toxic masculinity, which we're all trying to avoid (to the best of my knowledge).
Terms like "body count" make it sound like a conquest with right / wrong answers.
I disagree with all of it, but again it's just my opinion.
