What does body count mean in the following tweet?
"I do not support all women!!!!!! Some of these bitches serve in the IDF, and I’d rather have my kind of body count than the one they’re tallying up of dead children."

Body count is slang for “number of people you have had sex with”, which in this tweet is being compared to the number of murdered children (another body count, this time a literal count of dead bodies).
I doubted my interpretation as first, since there isn’t a lot of context in the tweet. But I googled and the person who tweeted this is a former porn star, so it makes sense here.
Thank you!
