Talk:Threesome
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm uncomfortable with the first paragraph talking about threesomes in the context of marriage. Particulary this statement: "In most cases it is a one time act by a married couple with a third partner, and not intended to be carried on further" I don't think there is any basis for saying that it is more commonly practiced by married couples or that it is intended to be a one event. Anyone have any evidence of that?
[edit] Ménage à trois
It's a French phrase who use has been co-opted to refer to a sexual threesome. After the first paragraph, everything in the article refered to sex, what the emotional requirements of such a relationship are, etc. Everything in this article refers to threesomes and so better belongs here, rather than co-opting that discussion.

[edit] Octupi picture
I'm not sure what the octupi picture is doing here - nost of the other links to the picture are of non-con or bestial sexual acts. No where else on the page does it discuss anything related to the picture. It seems rather startling to go from discussing jealousy in a three-way relationship to a painting of bestiality.

[edit] Terrible, biased and not about threesomes
I don't quite know where to begin. This article containes virtually nothing about the actual act itself - fails to present a balanced argument on the pros and cons - fails to place the activity in its social or historical context and appears to have more to say on polyamorous relationships than on threesomes themselves - does not take account of threesomes that take place outside of established relationships.
Most of it is actually off topic. A threesome is not a type of relationship, it is a type of sexual activity, and this article does not clearly represent the distinction. --JamesTheNumberless 14:02, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
