ORIGINAL: hrxxx When someone says to me that they have 30 years of experience, I know immediately that they are lying. An average person sleeps 1/3 of his life, and to my knowledge there is no one who can gain experience when they sleep, so it's safe to say they are lying, and if people are lying about 10 years of their experience! Then I can only assume that most of what they say is a lie. Ah yes... I think you're confused. You've settled on an understanding of "30 years of experience" that is somewhat special. When people say that, what they mean is that some 30 years ago they started doing that thing, and since then have been doing it on a pretty regular basis. Some might find it a little silly to interpret it as having done something non-stop, without sleep, for 30 years. I hope that helps Let me give you an example, here from real life Two different girls statements on experience I have 30 years experience in BDSM (I know all about BDSM) As you can see, this is an expert who want you to believe the expert's word above all else. I have been in BDSM scene for 30 years (I know something about BDSM but not all) This is an expert who knows BDSM, is a very large area, and knows that she can not know everything I can only say if you can not tell the difference, then you might be an easy prey to cons and scams Yes you will not believe people had 30 years of experience into one drive, without sleep or eat, but I doubt you think of it when someone says to you "I have 30 years experience" it is more the expert who want you to put more power in the sentence and make you believe the expert above all. My experience outside and in BDSM is that if someone says. "I have so many years of experience" then they are properly lying or they are inexperienced which is the same as lying, in my eyes. You can judge the expert `s as you like! and I do as I always done. OP asked to tell the difference between expert and non expert, and I have given my views on it. Did you make a view on it? Or did you not have any From my own life, I can only say if a girl ask about my experience, I say that I'm not inexperienced, and if she wants to know how long time, I say since I was 22 years old. But I am not an expert, I just know a lot, many others don`t know.
