So many women are put off when they hear their guy bring up a threesome when initiating sex — including myself — but not for the reasons you may think.
It's not because I find threesomes to be an oversexualized fantasy that primarily men have (which may be the reason for other women), but mostly because I begin to overthink the act.
Who should it be with? What will it be like? Will he enjoy sex with her more than me? Will I enjoy it?
But truth be told, having a threesome is actually a major sexual fantasy of mine as a naturally curious woman. The mere thought of it gives me the VTs — i.e. the vagina tingles, as my freshmen roommate once put it — as we speak. I couldn't possibly be the only one. I mean, really, once you get past the stigma that threesomes have held for so long, you just can't tell me that it doesn't sound even just a little bit hot.
But, as hot as it is, how much do you really know about threesomes?
We've put together a list of ten surprising facts every woman should know about threesome sex — from the "proper" terminology to straight-up research data. (Did you think that a threesome is every guy’s ultimate sexual fantasy? Think again.)
Comment below and share your threesome experience, whether it never made it out of the planning stage or it was fully-executed, we want to hear about it.

1. Threesomes Are NOT A Top Sexual Fantasy
This just in, threesomes are on the sh*t list! The University of Michigan conducted a sexual fantasy survey for women — and threesomes were ranked at the bottom. Who would've guessed?

5. No, Not All Men Share This Fantasy
6. Younger Women Are More Likely To Participate
A survey found that women ages 18-24 and 35-44 were more than four times as likely to have been in a threesome than those 65 and older.
Well, I'm glad to know the chances of my grandma breaking a hip in part to her participation of a threesome isn't so likely (but I'm going to knock on wood).

7. A Threesome With 2 Men And 1 Woman Is Called ...
A devil's threesome! Hey, what can you say? Some like to dance with the devil and others like to have sex with him.

8. And Women Are NOT Into It
We already learned women aren't too crazy about threesomes in the first place. But a MFM (Male-female-male) arrangement? According to a study, that's nowhere near their sexual bucket list. Only 2 percent of women said they'd already had an MFM (and all had reported only having one such experience).
Why? Researchers suggest that a threesome with two men is much more of a social taboo. Some women don't even want to have casual sex with one guy — let alone two. Plus, this type of threesome comes with both physical safety and power dynamics concerns.
9. Ménage A Trois Means .. Not What You Think
Ménage a Trois actually translates in the French language to "house of three."
