Pros:
Exploration and Variety
A threesome can offer an opportunity to explore new sexual experiences and introduce variety into a relationship. While some people are satisfied with routine, we really appreciate the desire to spice things up by adding a third.
Enhanced Intimacy and Connection
For some couples, a threesome can lead to increased intimacy and strengthen the emotional bond between partners. This may come as a consequence of heightened arousal, new types of pleasure or the emotional satisfaction of mutual enjoyment of someone else.
Fantasy Fulfillment
For some people, threesomes are a spontaneous decision, for others they are legendary, elusive fantasies. Partaking in a threesome can literally make dreams come true!
Improved Communication
Engaging in open and honest discussions about desires, boundaries, and consent is crucial before having a threesome. This can lead to better communication skills in the relationship, not just in the bedroom, but in a number of settings.
Boosted Self-Confidence
For some participants, the experience can help boost self-confidence and self-esteem. Whether it is seeing how lucky you are for having a partner capable of pleasing two people at once, or being the center of attention!
Cons:
Jealousy and Insecurity
On the flip side, threesomes can sometimes lead to jealousy or feelings of insecurity, especially if there are unresolved issues in the relationship.
Complicated Emotions
Threesomes can evoke complex emotions that individuals may not anticipate, making it essential to address these feelings afterward. Make sure you set aside some time afterwards to talk through any thoughts or feelings that arise.
Health and Safety Concerns
Threesomes, especially with new partners, may increase the risk of sexually transmitted infections if proper precautions, such as condom use and regular testing, are not taken. It is crucial to take all appropriate precautions to ensure that everyone is as safe as possible!
Boundary Violations
Without clear communication and consent, boundaries may be crossed, leading to discomfort and potential harm.
Social Stigma
Some individuals and communities may still stigmatize or judge those who engage in threesomes or other non-traditional sexual activities. Don’t let this deter you! There are countless people that support, enjoy and thrive in group sex activities! Plus, it can be your naughty little secret if you don’t want anyone else to know.
