March 3 is International Threesome Day. The famous 3/3! A digital wink that has become an annual meeting to talk about plural sexuality without blushing. And this year, the figures revealed by JOYclub may surprise more than one. The classic image of the male fantasy is slowly wavering.
When women lead the dance…
The figures leave no room for doubt. 28.3% of women in a relationship would like to experience a threesome with two men. In other words, almost one in three women. A proportion that is enough to raise a few eyebrows during a dinner with friends.
The opposite scenario, with two women and one man (FFH), also attracts 25% of women in relationships. That’s one in four. Fantasies are declined, adapted, nuanced.
In the overall ranking of desires declared by women in relationships, threesomes are among the most popular:
-
Tantra: 30.3%;
- Threesome MHF: 28.3%;
- FFH threesome: 25.0%;
- Sex in couples HFHF: 24.3%:
-
Group sex: 23.7%.
Threesomes are just behind tantra and ahead of couples and group sex. Suffice it to say that it is no longer a whispered marginal fantasy.
End of the “male fantasy” cliché
For a long time, the threesome was summarized in a very precise image: a man surrounded by two women. Data released on International Threesome Day tells a different story.
These figures specifically concern women in relationships. The stable relationship seems to become an accepted area of exploration, where discussions are held out loud rather than aside. We talk, we exchange, we imagine.
Celebrated every March 3, International Threesome Day aims to destigmatize this practice and encourage open conversations around plural sexuality. Behind the symbolism of 3/3, there is above all an observation: fantasies evolve, and women in relationships are no longer content to remain spectators of their own desires.
