Why is there a double standard when it comes to threesomes?

Why is there a double standard when it comes to threesomes?
It's pretty well known that the number one fantasy of men is two have two women at once.
Somehow this is accepted in society, and even the guy's parents would give him a high five for that.
Why is there a double standard when it comes to threesomes?
Studs VS sluts?
How did society ever get so fucked up?
If you don't like or want a threesome, then don't have one. If you do, then shouldn't you be fair about it?
Where did the logic jump the track? How did this not evolve to be an equal thing?

But if his girl asks him to return the favor, and he does... he will now be labeled a faggot, cuckold, sissy, beta boi.

So what is it about a MFM threesome that is so threatening to society?

  • Oh stfu. There is no double standard. Threesomes of any kind are not conducive to a healthy relationship. I sure as hell don't want one. And for the record, men who are brought up in the sorts of traditional households you're referring to, that discourage sexual promiscuity, are held to the same standard as the women in their family. And I don't know where you got the idea that dad's high-five their sons for smashing puss. That's awkward and cringey to even imagine.

    • "Threesomes of any kind are not conducive to a healthy relationship." Why are you changing the premise of the question by talking about relationships? LOL

  • Makes you a hoe either way

  • Guys feel threatened by it. A lot of girls find the idea sexy in fantasy but are afraid the reality would be too slutty.

  • Men are a lot more insecure than you might think. a lot of the time, more so than women.
    This may have something to do with it.

  • Most guys just aren’t gay/bi… It has nothing to do with equality. If you’re into girls too that doesn’t mean he’s going to be into guys. Get your head on straight fool.

  • I have done MFM and FFM and loved both of them!

    • I want a mfm

  • I had the fantasy of a threesome when i was young but as I get older, it fades. The wife never had that Kinda of fantasy but did have a "threesome" without having a third person. How? We buy a lot of sex toys and try new things so we came up with this new idea for us where we use a dildo and a fleshlight on each other and felt somehow as a threesome. Automatic fleshlight with mechanical strokes, The dildo can be on a mirror and so on, a threesome without the third person. I agree with you, it's stupid how people twist the idea. Never understood why.

  • Sounds like someone's jealous

  • Simply because a man does not internalize sexual contact of this nature not on an emotional, nor in a physical sense to be explicit about it. A man does not internalize nor though micro-chimerism retain DNA from sexual partners. In effect a man doesn't bring anything home with him, women do and retain it for life. A woman also looses her ability to pair bond having had several sexual partners. A woman who can not pair bond can not be a wife and mother in a stable family, ever.

    My advice to young women is to keep your intimacy as a treasured gift, not to be shared trivially and then only under the condition of long term romantic love.

    I wasn't always married as a matter of fact I married late in life and learned through observation and mistakes. In some matters, listen to advice and err on the side of caution because some mistakes, like cheapening your virtue has consequences for women which they can not see and from which recovery is impossible.

    I mean that from the standpoint of a married man with daughters, only wishing young girls and guys nothing but happiness.

    Don't cheapen your future relationships by acting on amoral choices today.

    • To be clear, I wrote the above, because a threesome in any situation is a sexually deviant act and I discourage all young people, but especially young women to not engage in sexual deviancy at all.

    • I get where you are coming from, with you having daughters and you are right in teaching them to keep their virtues in tact and I applaud you for that and do think I understand your concerns in life for them... I do however have a note (as you probably knew I would when you saw it was me commenting)... You not mentioning the young guys at all and not mentioning that they really really also should be held to a standard of ethics when it comes to this matter,, makes it sound like you excuse the behaviour of guys and almost okay them seeking out any sexual exploit they can get, I know or more so hope that is not what you are saying,,, but it is my point on this matter, that it should be said, rather than making it so that it is okay for men and women to be non virtuous when it comes to sexuality, it should be that both be held to the same standard of virtue (to use your phrasing in this case then),,, but it if you don't hold them to the same standard of virtue, firstly you are okaying men to be non virtuous and if you are not going to hold men accountable for non virtue, then it is immoral to then hold woman accountable for non virtue, that my man is hypocrisy in it's very definition and would dismantle any objectivity and logic in any of your arguments and as a result discredit those very arguments...

    • As a note, I also have my past and mistakes and I am telling you that a man does keep stuff from sexual deviance, maybe not biologically, but I know the dangers of sexual deviance to the soul and to the emotional side of a person...

  • Fear of enjoying the same sex is what it really comes down to and being judged for it. What you fear tends to be what you shun. And once shunned is hard to turn around unless enough people speak well of it or a person of influence does. At the very least casual of it

  • I have a single standard. Never.

  • Two things:

    1. Women don't value sex in the same way men do

    2. Without respect to attractive partner choices. By and large an average looking female can more easily have sex and/or a threesome than a hot guy trying to do the same. Because men are more willing, eager and prepared to take action on it than women are.


    Are women down for that? Yes, but the process is easier for men to go from hello to sex than the process for women to do the same. Its for that reason that girls don't get social validation from sex. From men or women. A girl just talking about getting fucked to other females isn't validating to her.

    What is validating is talking about all the guys who wanted to, but SHE said No. That's what girls get off on socially. That's why girls sit around talking about all the guys that tried. Guys don't do that shit. Actually having sex is validating, which is why guys will talk about what they've actually done. Because that's what's validating.

    Personally, I think both are stupid. But that's the reality. Understand it and move on. Don't fight reality

  • I don't really think so.

  • Because of women. We blame men. But in reality it's a problem because other women will judge us and have made this a problem

    • Are you talking about slut shaming done by women?

    • Yes.

  • I've never had a guy judge me for my interests, if anything it turns them on more.

    I dont see the issue here or how its a double standard

  • Please remember that in your society, boys ARE better than girls. There are double standards for just about every gender issues. Just because a guy is in an MMF 3sum doesn't mean he has to blow the other guy or be gay, right? Double penetration doesn't count! Yeah, been there, done that, not gay.

  • I think this is an entirely fictitious problem.

    • I never heard that either. I'd be wondering where exactly she got this specific one?

    • @UncleJessieRabbit Up her ass?

  • I don't care or pay attention to what society has to say. I do what makes me happy.

  • MFM 3 somesome are just as much fun as a FMF ones. Especially if the men are open about bisexuality. Because if they are talk about the more fun they can have.

    I have have done both quite a few times.

    The one thing I noticed though, FMF version though. Women are a lot more competitive over the man. Then the men over the woman.

  • There are double standards all over
    Threesome isn't my fantasy though. I have no interest in one.
