Talk:sex life

I changed the definition from, "Someone's life with regards to sex or sexuality" to "The frequency and quality of one's sexual encounters" as the original wording used the same words as the entry itself, a major faux pas in definition writing. Cheers. Tooironic 21:48, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

rfc-sense - "The frequency and quality of a person's sexual encounters."


 * Flagged, not listed. (?)
 * I've added some citations that don't really fit the definition, which strikes me as being more evaluative in tone than it should be. Perhaps some more modern, more colloquial quotations would be in order. — Pingkudimmi 08:34, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
 * What's the problem? Seems both clear and correct to me. --Mglovesfun (talk) 18:02, 21 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, um.. I don't know why it was rfc'd in the first place. I put it here because it had been flagged already and apparently not put up. If it had not been flagged I don't think I would have used rfc to raise my issue, but since it is here I have taken the opportunity.
 * In any case, the citations I've found don't seem to match the nuance of the definition, but rather something like "that part of one's life that involves sexual activity." The definition above, however, seems to be trying to rate the quantity and/or quality. I don't think this is inherent in the term. I don't see it in the quotes I found. — Pingkudimmi 16:22, 22 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Fair point. Mglovesfun (talk) 00:05, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

New sense created, this one sent to rfv. — Pingkudimmi 16:42, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

RFV
Rfv-sense: The frequency and quality of a person's sexual encounters. — Not backed up by the citations I found. It seems to be backwards anyway - it's the quality of one's sex life, not the sex life that is the quality. Despite these misgivings, I'm willing to believe it could be used this way. Proof, please! — Pingkudimmi 16:28, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
