FB/LWK Cross-Post!
So the SO is a member of a different board, one dedicated to new moms.
It's a different kind of place. Sheltered, warm. Unlike here, the site is not anonymous -- members disclose as much about themselves as they wish, the site is largely password-protected, and active admins and mods try to filter out the freaks. I don't think Hank is a member, though Lactation Lover is probably there, posing as an overworked mother of three in Muncie, Indiana.
Topics vary, but typically revolve around the usual suspects of kids, breastfeeding, gossip, etc. Flaming is frowned upon, and emoticons are apparently used to a sickeningly sweet extent. Obviously, many of us here would have a hard time relating to this kind of place, but stay with me for a moment.
SO starts cackling last night and tells me to come look at this thread. Seems that one of the members is gushing about a three-way she did with her hubby and another guy.
(As an aside, I'm tempted to criticize the writing. Even after 3 readings, I still could glean very little salacious material from it. Goddamn thing was written like a passage from a bad romance novel, and double anal was not even mentioned once. I was also a bit amused to see the multiple, somewhat embarassed responses of "Oh! Um, uh, thanks for sharing!" leave the overall impression that the poor woman had just farted in public, but whatever.)
But that's not my point. Point is, I was quite surprised to see folks share their 3-way amongst a wide group of people that they KNEW. Here on LT, the forum is ostensibly anonymous, and even to the extent that it's not, the prevailing assumption seems to be that the poster describing the outrageous sex act is full of shit. (See, e.g., Mr. Finch, supra.)
We've beaten the three-way discussion rather thoroughly on this board, but I was curious about this, so:
Poll: Would you describe your three way to a wide group of people who you actually know (and who know you)?
Me: No. Unless it were FMF, then I'd put it on a goddamned billboard on Wilshire.
ETA: Ah, I have been told that there's a GA out there (who has an SO on a mom's message board) where the GA has been arrested for particularly nasty extracurricular activities. FWIW, that's not me.
