A new sexist website has entered the chat.
Check Her Bodycount claims to use AI to guestimate a woman’s body count by scanning her Instagram page, taking into account her followers, posts and stories.
You paste in the IG URL of your chosen victim, and await the results.
The website first went viral after it was shared on X, alongside the caption: ‘Suspicious that your girl has 10+ body count? Now you don’t have to guess.. the app brutally estimates her body count’.
Disgusting? Yes. And, as it turns out, also totally fake.
A small disclaimer reads: ‘This tool does not access, connect to, or retrieve data from any third-party platform. All outputs are randomly generated for entertainment only and do not reflect real individuals’.
But the internet wasn’t too fussed about the site’s validity. The app’s creator, a game developer known as @weretuna, said on X that he couldn’t believe the site had gone viral, and joking back and forth with other users.
But what’s so funny?

Fake or not, the comments and conversations taking place because of this site’s existence are very real.
Following the negative critique from women, and calls for the site to be taken down, men responded, leaving comments such as ‘someone doesn’t like the consequences of their actions?’ and ‘if you don’t want to get s*** shamed don’t be a s***’.
In 2026, with the manosphere well and truly thriving, the question remains: why are men so obsessed with how many people women have slept with?

‘Men don’t often know why they’re asking the question’
As feminist author and sex educator Gigi Engle tells Metro, the idea of a body count tracker taps into ‘the belief that women’s sexuality should be monitored and is reflective of her worth as a person.’
Gigi continues: ‘For centuries, women’s sexual behavior has been tied to ideas about purity, respectability, and social value. That thinking never fully disappeared. It just shows up in new forms, including online. And this app really highlights this’.
Susie Masterson BACP registered therapist tells Metro that the topic of body count comes up regularly in the therapy room.
‘A few years ago, I had a number of distressed clients coming to therapy to ask for advice as to how to respond to these questions in the early stages of dating.
‘A key part of my role is to help women understand how they feel about things, rather than the societal pressures of how they are made to feel about things.’
Interestingly, Susie adds that, in her experience ‘men don’t often know why they are asking the question, because it’s not intrinsic, it’s socially constructed.’
She continues: ‘I remind clients that we don’t owe anyone an answer to a question.
‘If a man does have strong intrinsic motivations behind this question, then it’s probably not safe to answer him anyway’.
But, if women do want to use their voice and reclaim their power, Susie recommends saying something like ‘this is my experience and it means I know what I want and need’.
'He had to know exactly when and where'
Sophie*, 35, had been in a relationship for just a month when her boyfriend started asking about her body count.
‘At the time, I’d had one long relationship, and then a handful of one night stands, so my number was a fairly modest five,’ she tells Metro. ‘I didn’t think anything of telling him my body count, as I’ve never thought it matters.’
But the questions kept on coming. ‘Once he got my number, he then wanted to know when I’d slept with them, and who they were. Some he could work out, because he know my relationship history, but others, he hated not knowing. I even had to change the passcode on my phone.
‘Eventually, it started to feel like I was lying to him.’
Soon, Sophie relented, and her now ex got details of the five. ‘But I’d opened the floodgates. Then, he really wanted to know everything — when, where and who, including ethnicity, how many times, even d*** size.’
‘I later found out he’d told his friends about my body count, including details about the individual hook ups. When I asked him what his was, I got a vague answer, and was told he couldn’t really remember.
‘Looking back, his obsession wreaks of insecurity. It was a form of control — a way to have something over me.’
Now, Sophie says she’d never share her body count with a partner. ‘If it matters to them, they’re not the kind of man I want to be with.’
The women’s only ‘whisper network’
Launching in July 2025, the Tea App is a woman-only ‘whisper network’, which allows users to upload, view, and comment on photos of men, check their public records, perform image searches, and review them.
The goal is to create an accessible fountain of knowledge which can allow women to date and interact with men safely.
While the platform has been lauded by women, some men have criticised it, calling it a ‘witch hunt’ and now using its existence as justification for the Check Her Bodycount site.
When it comes to comparing these two sites though, Gigi notes: ‘This an attempt to equate two things that aren’t the same.
‘There is room for criticism of the Tea App and its ability to be used with bad intentions, but it does not purport to equate a man’s value as a person with how many people they’ve slept with.
‘Its main aim is actually to keep women safe from harmful and toxic guys. They aren’t in the same category.’
‘We need to view women and femmes as people’
Both Gigi and Susie stress that a much healthier framework and approach should focus on ‘consent, respect, and compatibility’, rather than assigning meaning to a baseless number.
Emphasising the need to ‘view women and femmes as people, not social and sexual commodities’, Gigi does note one benefit to Check Her Bodycount: ‘If you find out the guy you’re dating is on it, run like the wind’.
