Many people have been asking:
"How could he not have gotten laid in THAT many years?"
I think he was lying.
I even think he may have "lied" to himself. I think it's entirely likely that he - at some point in the last 20 odd years - managed to bag a few women who were simply not up to his standards, and so he simply did not count them as having been actual sex partners.
We all know this kind of man. We see them comment here. It doesn't seem at all far fetched to assume that he just didn't see the need to bring up the 3 or 4 (or 10 or 20?) "hags" that he'd banged - because after all they were not what he WANTED - and he only talked about what he wanted - what he felt he DESERVED.
A man this obsessed with image, so enslaved to his ego - would he really admit to his cohorts that he had been slumming with women who didn't deserve him?
This guy, when not bragging about the things he had to "offer", was lamenting the things (women) which he had been "denied"; his picking up and nailing women who he then disregarded as being unworthy would do nothing to further the self indulgent "I'm-the-world's-largest-undiscovered-treasure" martyr act he had going on.
I guess what I'm trying to say is No way, Dude's a Liar: He must've banged a few fatties and he's just one of those douchebags who won't admit it - but he would certainly still whine about how he can't get any.
Ever had this convo with a buddy:
"Man I haven't had any in ages"
"What about that chick at that party?"
"Oh no way, she doesn't even count!"
(and yeah women do that shit too)

"But who's going to say, "You seem to have a really deep hatred of women, and some serious rage issues, and a ludicrously overblown sense of entitlement, and I'm guessing you'd need about a hundred years of therapy before you'll be ready for a healthy relationship"?"
C'mon. Everybody on the internet probably told him a million times. Dudes like this flat out don't believe it if you tell them. Does Brightstar believe it yet?
