Groupsex and Threesome

What is groupsex? Groupsex is defined as a sexual act involving more than two people. Groupsex can include any number of combinations of genders, and practically any number of people over two. Groupsex is also known as an orgy or gangbang, and has its participants simultaneously performing and receiving any number of sex acts such as oral copulation, vaginal penetration, and anal sex. Regardless of the players’ combinations or term used, groupsex is often considered an immensely exciting and taboo activity, and is a typical subject of sexual fantasy with both men and women, gay or straight.
Groupsex, or the orgy, while practiced and documented historically for thousands of years in likely all cultures and locales, first really came into the spotlight in 1970s America, and was often part and parcel of swingers parties and fueled by disco music and illicit drugs. While going somewhat undercover again for many years, groupsex has regained both popularity and exposure with the advent of the internet, which has literally thousands of websites devoted to seeking groupsex partners and posting their escapades for the world to see. Groupsex is a particularly popular activity amongst devotees of the swingers movement, with couples engaging in sex with numerous outside and often anonymous partners simultaneously at both private parties and public events. Statistically, most people are never fortunate or adventurous enough to get the opportunity to engage in groupsex, but those who have, found the experience immensely exciting and often seek to repeat it.

What is a threesome? A threesome by strict definition describes three persons or entities grouped together, but usually means a sexual encounter involving three people. A threesome can include three males, three females, two males and one female, or two females and one male. Regardless of the combination, a threesome is generally considered an exciting, taboo activity, and is often the subject of sexual fantasy.
A threesome involving two women and one man is statistically the most common form of a threesome, and often has one committed heterosexual couple inviting another woman to have sex with them. This type of encounter may have the invited second female interacting with just the man, the woman, or both; the “third’s” level of involvement is often decided upon in advance by the couple. This somewhat indirect form of lesbianism is usually very exciting for the male in the threesome. A threesome involving two men and one woman is somewhat less common, and is more prevalent in the swingers scene, where single males are often invited to participate in sex with a heterosexual couple. This is a particularly common scenario where the husband desires a cuckold fantasy, where he witnesses his wife having sex with another man. A couple often considers long and hard before inviting a third party to join them in bed, and detailed ground rules are often needed to set agreed-upon boundaries. This is true whether the threesome occurs privately or at a more public venue like a sex club or swingers party.
