For instance, do promiscuis people totally objectify the person they are sleeping with? Is there any feelings for that person at all? Or are they just a tool to get off with? And does that person have any meaning to you later on in life? I would especially like the ladies opinion on this.

Promiscuis people have no self-esteem and changing partners is a sign of their insecure personality, they try to find self value by not respecting others not knowing that they are first of all not respecting themselves. No they dont have feelings for the person they sleep with, how can they think about others feelings when they are not happy about themselves ..They first of all objectify themselves more than objectifying the person they are sleeping with but of course without knowing it.. The person they slept with has no meaning in their lives not in the present nor in the future..

You will have MANY people say promiscuity is bad, promiscuity is good, depending on upbrining and religeous/home taught values. The definition of promiscuity depends on the culture you come from so this question in of itself is loaded from the start. Many people choose this lifestyle outside of any religeous context and have a wonderful satisfying life of happiness, wheras others end up feeling guilty due to anxiety, feelings of "sluttyness" or just not feeling good about themselves. In short, your answer is BOTH. Some people who show promiscuity are just reaching out for help and are only using other people's sexuality as a crutch for themselves, or to hurt themselves or others. However others who have had a non judgemental upbringing may have multiple partners in search of "the one" and have never objectified anybody, or "used" anyone, and all those people perhaps hold a dear and special place in their heart because they helped make that person who he/she is today. In a predominantly christian culture, promiscuity is frowned upon, but that doesn't make it "good" or "bad", it is what each person wants it to be.

I think in most cases it's probably just the opposite. Most promiscuous people are behaving that way so they can feel a deep connection to another person even if it's only for a short period of time. I think the people they are with have a huge impact on them (whether they want to admit it or not). Of course there are some people out there who are just looking to get laid but I don't think that's the case most of the time when you are talking about women. Men can more easily disconnect sex from emotions.

abject promiscuity shows a basic lack of self esteem those who practice it have no idea of their actual worth. They only want to be loved.. They think that the person that they are sleeping with actually cares for them when all the are looking for is self gratification. They shouyld look deep within themselves to find what they actually want before going to sex as the answer to everything.

It would depend on the person. In some cases yes. In others, it may be the person is trying to find a sense of value within themselves. They may be trying to gain self-esteem, showing that they are still attractive.

Been there, done that. It's odd to say but the men that I slept with which I termed f*** buddies did in fact become and have remained my friends. We're there for each other to vent, lend moral support, borrow a few bucks from, etc. I don't see that changing in the near future regardless if one or both of us have a relationship.

Promiscuity either by a man or women is rooted in that person and their unability to feel of worth and confident. In my opinion it is a behavior coming from poor self-confidence.

My personal opinion is that with some promiscuous people, it is because they have a stronger sex urge than most that are not. For others, it may be a way of covering up for some other phobia or hang up they have.

Objectify that's a good word. No I disagree with you as it depends on the circumstances.

If you don't respect yourself no one else will.
To women it is a violation of a sacred trust. Some women would rather die than be forced with someone she doesn't love.
to men it is a piece of meat. To women this love is everything.
