Got any tips on how to arrange a 3-way?

So I have been in a relationship with the same guy since I was about 16.

So since then, I have had wild fantasies about a threesome with a really hot girl. But it’s a lot harder to arrange that than it seems. Do you have any suggestions about how we can find a third? We’ve already tried Craigslist with no luck.

Don't let parents and religion get in the way of good sex

After all, kids, the same vengeful, sex-obsessed, entirely fictitious God who disapproves of premarital sex also disapproves of any and all “nonintercourse ways” of getting your boyfriend off, says Dan Savage.

I like women watching me masturbate

Kinks should always be presented as perks, as something that makes you a more interesting and fun sex partner, not as something that makes you a defective or problematic sex partner, says Dan Savage.

Virtual partners and golden showers
