Best? So many were so awesome as to be impossible to say. Women are so great in so many differing ways. Unfortuately,as to best, there was a heavy cocaine-use period that is hard to compare with the affairs of mere mortals.
The Worst depends. I’d have to say it was as the one that was as beautiful as any seen in any magazine or movie. Gorgeous! Absolutely a dead-f**K. I suspect I know what necrophilia is like. 
Six lovers, two current. Two more people if one expands to heavy petting, one additional for serious snogging in a shared bed. I am one of the world’s most boring nonmonogamous people.
Twenty-eight, female, straightish.
Worst was definitely the emotionally abusive fellow who appeared to be trying to convince himself he was bi, not gay. Not my smartest relationship choice ever.
- 12 or so

Best: By far and away, my current lover.
Worst: A guy in college who always seemed to lose his erection at the most inopportune times. It was not good for my self-esteem.
Thank you for answering that, very direct and honest.
Just my take; I could be off-base.
By the way, are you cute?
Kidding! 
Super cute, super handsome, super good shape, super freak, super straight!
- How many sexual partners have you had in your life?
I don’t actually know. Not in the hundreds, certainly. Not in the fifties even. Something on the order (not the close order mind you) of thirty.

For the bonus question, which really has nothing to do with my super-scientific study, what was your best and worst?
I presume you mean in terms of technical performance as opposed to “likely to do that again” (were I not married and all, ahem). If not, let me know – the answers change.
Best: I have a tie, I am afraid. A cuban fellow of short acquaintance went with me to the Miami airport to pick up a friend of mine who turned out to have missed her connection in Atlanta. He asked me “So what do you want to do while we wait?” in just the right tone of voice.
Also, my then-karate instructor. Not, um, the brightest bulb on the christmas tree, alas. But good technique.
Worst: Can I just say, users of anabolic steroids should warn their partners that it may or may not increase desire but does nothing for performance. Nor for the behavior of the user when things go badly.
Cite?
How’re you doin’? 
Pfft. Nothing a six pack won’t cure. 
If you could find my last name out, I am sure you could find pictures of me on the internet.
Had the six pack, been hit on by guys, still didn’t work. Not to say…
Are you guys kidding?
If women put out everytime a guy wanted it we’d never get out of bed.
Well, most of us anyway.
I met my wife in '92 and there’s been no one but her since then.
Before that…
Man that ain’t right. late 70’s and 80’s we had lots of parties… how many girls? (at the very least) one a week for at least 10 years. That’s gonna be on the way too few side I’m afraid. You do the math.
I’m 44 male and straight, I quit f…ing around when I met my wife. Beautiful, sexy, smart and HOT. The best by far. I’ve been with nobody since she died either.
Partners: 5
Age: 23

The number would probably be much higher ('cause I’m a horny bastard…eh…ess), but I was in a 5-year relationship which ended in April, so I spent that time boinking just one man.
Hard to place one single encounter as “best” (or “worst”…I’ve been pretty lucky so far as sex partners are concerned). Although the time where there was first two hours of sex, then a few-hour break, and then two and a half hours of sex… that wasn’t all that bad.

I don’t know how to choose a best or worst. If I ever have the best sex of my life, I’ll have a basis for comparison.
FMG, 125!? Damn, Wilt Chamberlain!

**Best- ** This british chick I met in Washington DC. Good Googley Goo, she was a freak and had a rockin’ bod.
**Worst- ** This german chick I dated for a short while. Her method was “I’ll just lay here and scream”. Damn, baby, at least TRY to move your ass.
Good thing my wife does not read this, I know it would bother her. But I never looked at it as a lot. I lost my virginity at 12 years old, but my peak was on Marine Corps recruiting duty.

Ten’s pretty high, isn’t it? It’s weird, but it didn’t seem like I’d slept with so many people until I added it all up.
Okay, I’ve never had sex that I enjoyed but I’ll try to narrow down a best and worst time. Hmm. Got it.
Best: A female friend of a friend. It was totally random and spontaneous. We were talking about a novelist when she literally just took her shirt off and pounced. I believe that she may have been a bit mental. The only cons were that she made far too much noise than was necessary, it seemed to last forever and she orgasmed twice. WTF. But she apparently found it to be rather nice, so it counts as the best I suppose.
Worst: This guy I used to work with. Long story short, he wanted to have sex with me, I said no and he started to cry. I don’t mean a few tears here and there-- this was full blown out sobbing. He went off on this insane tangent about how much his life sucked and what a loser he was, etc., etc. I pretty much did it out of pity. Afterwards, he got crazy and acted like we were suddenly dating and trying to e-mail me all the time. I blocked his address and the last I heard was that he killed himself.
This thread has also made me realise that out of all the people I’ve slept with, I’ve never dated any of them.
Wow. I feel like a slut now.

Best: Such a tricky question, tinged with pain and pleasure. But there was this one girl who hung around in the same early-twenties crowd as me who totally jumped my bones at the Glastonbury festival - that was a good weekend, and it was just a Glastonbury thing. No hang-ups, no hassle, stayed friends. I was at her wedding a few years ago and was so happy for her, but I was thinking all the way through the ceremony that her husband was a lucky lucky bastard.
Worst: Regrets, I’ve had a few…but not at the time.
1) How many sexual partners have you had in your life? 21
2) How old are you? 34
3) Are you male or female? female
4) Are you gay or straight? straight
Best: Patrick. We met at a co-worker’s birthday party: I had just graduated from college, and he was in his late 30s. It remains the only purely physical relationship I’ve ever had; also, the only time that I had concurrent sexual relationships with two men he was one of the guys. I learned a lot from him. I still have a naked photo of him, too.
Worst: Ike. When I was in my early 20s he was in my circle of friends (we’d gone to the same high school), and at some point he started trying to “get with me.” I knew I’d never want to date him, but at one party I was drunk and horny and decided to finally give in. He was a selfish and unimaginative lover, and to this day he’s the only sexual partner I’ve ever regretted (but mostly because of the circumstances, not just because he was bad in bed).

A lot. Frankly, I’ve lost count. I’ve been single most of my adult life, except for a 4-year marraige in my early 20’s. I have a very high sex drive, what can I say? Okay, I’m a ho. But not so much anymore, I actually haven’t had sex in over a year now.

Straight. (Okay, there was that one time, but I didn’t really enjoy it.)
As for best and worst, the worst was probably this guy that I was friends with, except I was secretly in love with him. He absolutely sucked in bed, and not in a good way. It’s fortunate that it didn’t work out in the long run, because I would hate to be doomed to a lifetime of bad sex. The best would probably be another friend I hooked up with a few times many years ago- the next day my whole body would be sore and exhausted, and that’s how you know it was good. The opposite situation with him- he was secretly in love with me but not me with him.
