At the end of a party late last year I found myself in a cab with a good mate, Tom, and Lucy, the girl I was seeing at the time. Tom sat in the front seat and Lucy and I shared the back seat. Whilst I have never broached the subject of having a threesome with him to his face, we had often exchanged texts contemplating the subject. Had it not been that I am rather fond of his girlfriend I am fairly confident that I would have raised the possibility that we partake in such an activity with my companion.
Sitting in the cab that night got me to thinking about the art of the ménage a trois. For me there is a level of fascination that surrounds such an erotic experience. It is a game, played out by two, but danced by at least three. But as a straight male, it is puzzling to me is that I would consider getting into bed with another guy. Obviously my perfect situation would be with two women (the internet offers a seemingly never ending choice of these types of scenarios), but there I was with a girl on my left and a guy sitting in front of me, seriously thinking what it would be like.
I was thinking about this when I found myself, only a couple of weeks ago, having dinner with Tom and another female companion of mine, Sarah. I’m not sure if it was the pinot noir or maybe just my disgusting libido, but after my fourth glass, I bluntly suggested it. Three hours later it eventuated. It wasn’t everything I expected… But it was never awkward, very gratifying, and incredibly pleasurable.
The undoubtable temptation is to classify me as bisexual but it is about something more than that. The gratification comes from the shared sexual experience with two of my close friends. Human beings are inherently social creatures and surely the act of sharing sexual experiences with multiple partners at once is just an extension of this. Done rightly, the art of a ménage a trios is one of beauty. The experience has led me to believe that threesomes should be encouraged, and have much more sentimental meaning than the pure sexual gratification displayed on the interwebs.
Menage a trois anyone?
