My boyfriend freaked out because I had a threesome

It happened before we were together, but he can't handle it and he's being a real jerk.

    So simple, eh?

In other words, hypocrites who think that anything that doesn't personally turn THEM on is "sick," but whatever they dig is fine. Sex is "sacred" but that lap dance at the bachelor party was just a guy thing, honey... you know it didn't mean anything!"

    This is so wrong I can't even begin to explain it. I've had gay roommates, gay friends, but am straight. That has nothing to do with it. And not all of us who think sex is some kind of sacred entity get lap dances or even have bachelor parties.

    I'd like to think I'm enlightened enough that I could accept that my girlfriend had been in a threeway with two guys. I don't know if I could handle that. My last girlfriend (I am now happily married) had quite a bit more sexual experience than I had, and I could deal with that. But I agree that I probably couldn't get that picture out of my mind if she had told me she had been in a MMF.

    I think as long as these socializations that we experience in an admittedly unjust society exist, we should just keep our traps shut about our sexual pasts, on both sides, unless we met our SO at a gangbang, and thus know we both can handle it.

    It seems these conversations only stir up trouble.
