Assume that there’s no STIs involved. How comfortable would you be with a partner with numbers in the double digits? Triple digits?
When would be the appropriate time to share that kind of information?

I don’t ask for that information. As long as he has shown himself to be a good, loyal partner, his sexual past wouldn’t matter to me unless he did something unethical to achieve it.
It’s situational, but a very high number of past partners could correlate with unethical behavior in the past and/or some issues making healthy connections with others. It would be worthy of a discussion, but probably more broadly about past experiences and relationships rather than “body count.”
You could also say you don’t care how much money your partner has, but if they’re a billionaire you might want to know more about how they got there.
